  1. My app can produce a list of ALL FileNames in folders and sub folders. It wouldn't be a stretch to change / enhance an old feature to list just those over a certain length. I love long filenames Nobody Shares Video Knowledge better than this.. Without a doubt those Long FileNames are unbeatable when Curating Video. Maybe the greatest feature of all time... NOW I can take My tobacco leaf flyer videos... AND give them a long name that contains.... The play start point... the duration... the speed... the direction and maybe the co-ordinates (for proximity searches) To test it out My Swampies can take this template and make it theirs. Swampies need only to download or rename their Own videos to see the details. This app is easy and fun. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- pass01 tlf vg begin==42900 start==43500 wait=.90 smlbud3 maxbud10 demo85_pict7 speed=30 freeeze==.30 pass02 tlf tobacco leaf flyer begin==62800 start==63960 wait=.20 smlbud5 maxbud10 speed=50 freeze==.03 pass03 tlf tobacco leaf flyer begin==62800 start==65050 wait=.20 smlbud5 speed=50 freeze==.03 pass04 tlf tobacco leaf flyer begin==60000 start==62150 wait=.25 smlbud10 speed=50 freeze==.03 --------------------------------------------------------------------- name the file to the above details.. Do an auto catalog of that directory... (GF option) Followed by a quick lets play (ww screen saver continuous play) sit back and enjoy a view that nobody else has EVER seen. I like this better than cataloging in a separate file.. This info gets lost but not when it is in the FileName nope Only a fool would ignore Long FileNames http://www.archive.org/details/demo85-pict7 I needed the above features to show those Sky Critters

  3. Police forces throughout North America are employing video to increase accountability and build trust. These efforts are bound to fail. First they couldn't pick a worse recording method than a camcorder on the chest. Many events will be missed and video flexibility is lost. Using a hand held recorder as one would use a flashlight can enhance video, capture sunrise / sunsets and street scapes, Police Video can be made more interesting to watch. This video needs to be quickly uploaded (unedited) to the net. To accomplish this. Daily video would be played back on a large screen and a Fast forward recording of that uploaded immediately to the host site. 4+ hrs of daily shift video can be viewed in 15 to 20 minutes this way. Requested segments will be uploaded in their entirety. Allowing police to control the video won't build trust. Re. The city of Gardena Police video From 2013 just recently being released. Citizen volunteers will be employed to do the recording and archiving. The originals will also be available on USB sticks and Disk drives at Libraries and alternate Locations. Cell phone video will be readily accepted and PAID for. Those that are interested can help archive those original clips. Ie Sunsets, Street views, Thugs on the corner, chase segments, arrests.. Watchers can select and replay just these segments or randomly sample all video. The Video being unedited and searchable will build trust. Anything less will be seen as a farce. Police crime can't go unpunished To eliminate Political Corruption and Cronyism, Elected Officials and Senior Staff must be watched with video. Bad Elected Officials is an even bigger problem! Billions will be saved and recovered. Criminal secrecy must be exposed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHSAhQ_Fqjg
  4. Touch typist or "Hunt and Peck" typist. Fast or Extremely slow. All apps should have a second option like JJ KK LL for us that are Fast. Please don't slow us down.
  5. I have an old laptop. Recently most of my screen captures got rubbed out. The directory for that folder got corrupted. Same goes with large video files. Sometimes they go bad and need to be restored. Now and then I run a random sampling of my jpgs and mpg files. Yup backup is of utmost importance. If you lost a clients data you might as well look for a new job.
  6. Way back I wrote a KeyPunch Verify app. Rather than use the attached numeric keypad the users insisted we use the home position when entering numeric fields. ie change J to a 4, K to a 5 etc. I allow for that in my app when selecting previous search strings or file names. We shouldn't forget those of us that can type.
  7. Yup they are there and have been for billions of years. http://www.archive.org/details/demo76-pict13 In this original file the action is from 60 seconds through 83 seconds. I made the changes necessary so I could watch this segment fast forward and in reverse for a number of times. The slow moving cloaked one shows better that way. There was a flurry of thunder and lightning bugs that first caught my eye. A visitor noticed the smudge moving across the screen. One of the bugs moved right up to where the cloaked object was. I have been obsessed with them since I first spotted them flitting about in my videos. http://www.archive.org/details/demo85-pict7 Shows an object similar to a tobacco leaf. Note wet leaves don't fly and dry leaves don't bend. This was doing both. There are 8 or 9 passes this flyer made. Another is: http://www.archive.org/details/demo13_pict7 a tiny speck flys right up to a sparrow. The bird fluffs up his feathers right before the close encounter. I have a number of others but these are the best ones.
  8. Hi All I set my VB5.0 app as the default MultiMedia player. Where do I pick up the file name / path info? I'd use it for .txt, mpg, mp3, jpg , bmp etc Never thought I'd have the need for Fast Forward in Video but have added that feature. It's a great way to check out surveillance video and to more clearly see slow moving cloaked objects I have video of.
  9. Any key where you have to take your hands from the keyboard; might just as well be hanging from the wall. I use JJ KK LL followed by Enter as commands. As a typist having to move my hands from the home position is such a huge waste of speed.
  10. Never see the final 3 seconds of video You can never stop recording soon enough sometimes. But don't worry about profanities ruining the immediate video playback. With the PD/C option the last 3 seconds of video will never get played. The Profanity Delay / Censor option. Reasons to use this cool Video feature: If someone you don't like goes by. Stop recording. If you might get sued. Stop recording. If someone says something nasty or threatening to you. Stop recording. If you are videoing a Wild Wild party be ready to. Stop recording . Sometime later you can examine those final few seconds to see which videos goes to the XXX folder. Wouldn't it be great if YouTube offered this feature. Then we could quickly send our unedited video. As long as we stop recording quickly. Come on YouTube do it for the Swampies. Just as with the "golf" enhancement whereby the "start==" element changing to negative "-3000" allows for playing the last 3 secs (the swing) in slo-mo. A similar change to the "wait=-3" will play all but the final 3 seconds of a video. When they are acting bad cut 'em off. Catalog the video using "gf" and then change the resultant .txt file replacing every "photo " with "photo wait=-3 " So within minutes of offloading the video it's ready to play. Never see them last 3 seconds EVER.
