HTML5 activities

  • NEW 04/30/2013
Because HTML5 activities generate lot of threads I must confess that I’m lost :-(
And if I’m lost, I think that it worse for students interested by this subject for the GSoC :-)
So I’ve tried to sum up everything I know about this subject on a dedicated page of the Wiki: :http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/HTML5_activities
Do not hesitate to Complete/update if I missed something, Move it if I’ve put it in a wrong place.
Best regards from France. Lionel.

Screencasting

Details of screencasting in fedora

Gnome3 has already a screen recording functionality

Note: in next f19 Beta you will need to do: 

yum install recordmydesktop

As it is being removed from the live Desktop to reduce it's size to 1 GB Note added - 05/13/2013

Pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+R recording will start.
There should be a red icon on the right-bottom corner of your screen.
Pressing it again will stop the recording. The video is saved on your home directory on webm format.
Tested in f18 and in f19 Gnome (3.8.0)
03/28/2013
gtk-recordmydesktop
saves file in .ogv format
  • In f18:Package gtk-recordmydesktop-0.3.8-7.fc18.noarch
  • Change directories to one where you want to store the.ogv file
  • In terminal :$ recordmydesktop

Capturing!

  • Stop Recording ctrl-C:

^C Cached 7 MB, from 2373 MB that were received. Average cache compression ratio: 99.7 % Saved 434 frames in a total of 432 requests Shutting down..... STATE:ENCODING Encoding started! This may take several minutes. Pressing Ctrl-C will cancel the procedure (resuming will not be possible, but any portion of the video, which is already encoded won't be deleted). Please wait... Output file: out.ogv

  • Stop encoding-optional
used for this test.

[9%] ^C Encoding finished! Wait a moment please... Done. Written 368721 bytes (341334 of which were video data and 27387 audio data) Cleanning up cache... Done!!! Goodbye!

Oggconvert

"A WebM file consists of VP8 video and Vorbis audio streams, in a container."

see above for recording in gnome3
  • Software in fedora

  • add Programs-Ubuntu

Convert to ogg with firefogg

  • Load into Firefox in your laptop

  • Select webm file created in gnome screencasting

  • Copy .ogg file to a USB and insert into Soas-v8 or XO-1.5

Trimage

"Trimage is a cross-platform GUI and command-line interface to optimize image files via optipng, pngcrush, advpng and jpegoptim, depending on the filetype (currently, PNG and JPG files are supported)."

Flash

09/21/2013 flash on a XO
If you are using Flash you need to also install nspluginwrapper, and use it to "wrap" the plugin so WebKit can see it.
Use "yum -y install nspluginwrapper" to install the package.
The OLPC OS build scripts for custom builds use the following command (run as root or via sudo) to finish the wrapping process.  I have not verified it yet on a XO-1.5:
/usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/npconfig -n -p nswrapper_32_32 -d /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins-wrapped -i /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so

html5 Trial in youtube

"This is an opt-in trial of HTML5 video on YouTube."
"We support browsers that support both the video tag in HTML5 and either the h.264 video codec or the WebM format (with VP8 codec)"

Convert MediaWiki to HTML

  • Firefox:"Save page as-Web page-complete"
If these are saved to a USB they can be opened with a XO-1 running os883 switched to gnome desktop,
or any off-line computer running firefox browser.
  • This may be the simplest way to generate a HTML file for adding to the new sugar webpage (not tested)

Jekyll

  • "Jekyll is a simple, blog-aware, static site generator. It takes a template directory containing raw text files in various formats, runs it through Markdown (or Textile) and Liquid converters, and spits out a complete, ready-to-publish static website suitable for serving with your favorite web server."

Liveusb Creator

Instructions on how make a booting Live USB device
  • Windows, GNU/Linux, and Intel Mac's
  • Fedora 17 liveusb-creator - IMPORTANT
USE "liveusb-creator --reset-mbr from terminal
Or USB will not boot
  • Command line Use:
Usage: liveusb-creator [options]
Options:
  --version             show program's version number and exit
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -c, --console         Use console mode instead of the GUI
  -f DRIVE, --force=DRIVE
                        Force the use of a given drive
  -s, --safe            Use the "safe, slow and stupid" bootloader
  -n, --noverify        Skip checksum verification
  -v, --verbose         Output extra debugging messages
  -k ARGS, --extra-kernel-args=ARGS

                        Calculate the SHA1 of the device
  -H HASH, --hash=HASH  Use a specific checksum algorithm (default: sha1)

Installing and using liveusb-creator in sugar

An easy method for Fedora and Windows, however this method does not generate a separate home.img filesystem to conserve the exhaustible OS overlay (see LiveOS image), nor does it copy the livecd-iso-to-disk installation script to the new device to permit generation of a new Live USB device from the first.
Note if graphical liveusb-creator program will not make a bootable USB stick from an .iso file:
(This can happen if the stick is formatted to fat16 on another PC with a different Operating System.)
Use terminal command :
liveusb-creator --reset-mbr
USB stick must be formatted: fat16/32; Labeled=LIVE; boot flag set.
(The LIVE label is only required when the device is to be used for a subsequent uncompressed installation to a hard disk.)
