all2mpg
all2mpg is a utility to convert (almost) any video file into a format suitable for mastering onto a video DVD. It builds on the work of Phil Ehrens' scripts by adding various options via the command line.
Star Trek New Voyages
If you're a fan of Star Trek then you may know about the New Voyages. This fan-based operation has produced a pilot show and, up until now, three episodes. I've transcoded these programmes and put them onto DVD suitable for PAL players. You can download the DVD image here. This download is approximately 3.6 GB.
Dabo
I've created two Gentoo ebuilds for Dabo and the Dabo IDE. Dabo is a 3-tier, cross-platform application development framework, written in Python atop the wxPython GUI toolkit and can be found here. If you've ever used Microsoft Visual Foxpro and are looking for an open source alternative then Dabo is the place to look.
These ebuilds are stored as part of the gentoo-sunrise overlay, for further information on how to use the sunrise overlay look here.
Postsync for Gentoo
Postsync provides control of actions hooked onto portage's sync operation and, as the name suggests, are run after portage has performed the sync. If you want to try it you'll need to install the sunrise overlay.
Bango
Bango is a small utility written in Python. It takes all the hassle out of using Bananalotto.
Video Requantization
I once had a play with some mpeg requantization code from Metakine who write video software for the Mac. The upshot of this is that I ended up converting the code for the x86 architecture and autoconfiscating two packages:
Usage instructions are here. Thanks go to Makira for his help when I must have been an annoyance.
