KAPing in Italy

Two small updates in my KAP’ing Experience:

 

And a small video, taken from the same kite. Needed to stabilize it quite thoroughly, and the result is at times a moving horizon :)

WordPress Facebook Integration

Hey all, just installed a facebook integration plugin for wordpress. Supposedly it cross posts your (new) wordpress posts into your facebook account. This is a post just to see whether it works. With images. I hope.

Let’s see whether this works.

Update: Whoohoo! works, quite nicely too!

FFmpeg shortcomings – no 48khz+ ALAC encoding

If anyone knows of better suited tools, please let me know. You don’t need to specify -map_meta_data any more, the latest version from GIT automatically maps it.

As far as I can tell, the highest bitrate I’ve been able to use with the ALAC encoder is 48 KHz.

Heb je eindelijk een shitload 96/24 masters (of hoger, hoogste 192/24 zelfs), moet je de bende handmatig lopen converteren, niks scriptjes douwen.

Prut.

Aardige referentie naar Nietsche overigens, was me nog niet eerder opgevallen :)

Enterprise-LP

Lijkt er ergens wel een beetje op, niet?

Pre eindelijk in een net doosje geprutst, voeding apart van de VSPS zelf (Google: rjm Audio vsps, niet lui zijn!). Zit nog wel een HEEEEEEEEEL klein brommetje in, eens een keertje nalopen. Alleen hoorbaar als je hem zo hard zet dat horen en zien je allang vergaan en de naald uit de groef springt van de bassen, dus geen heel groot issue, maar toch…. wil je het eruit hebben. Zal wel een aarde contactje dat niet per se helemaal correct cpntact maakt.

Fliegen ist Freiheit …aber wie wird man Pilotin?

Found this one on a german forum. Easy enough to ounderstand :)

For all of those who want to start paragliding… This is more or less indeed what you do. The first two days are actually the heaviest. Starting ground handling and learning how to set up the paraglider (with a little wind) is quite tiring if you do it for the first time.

After learning how to do so it starts getting easier and less tiring, but groundhandling is and will always be one of the most important parts of paragliding…
