How to trim your large movie files to hassle free view in QuickTime Player7

QuickTime Player7
Are you a movie buff? Have you ever wanted to send a movie clip or a certain section of a movie to a friend, but did not how to and ended up sending the entire movie to him/her?

Help is available! In case you did not know, Quick time Player 7 has a great way to do this. It has a fast trim tool, a tool that allows you to cut big files, especially the movie ones, at points you want them to be cut at; thereby reducing file size, if you want to email them. This is basically a trim tool, which allows you to trim files, save them differently, and use them as you would choose to. The QuickTime Player 7 comes with a pro license key.

First, you need to open the movie file. When it starts running, highlight the portion that you want to trim at and save separately. Go to file, Save as, preferably name as Part 1 to avoid any confusions later. This is a great clip, as it would work even if you decide to email it or even shift it to any other device and open it. This has reduced the file size thereby making it easier for you to work on it. Another option is to make a split clipping, for which you choose “Trim to selection” in the Edit Menu and select Save. Voila! First part of the movie is ready to be used.

You have saved the first part of a movie, now you want to save the second part as well. Here, you go to Edit menu, Undo Trim to selection and your movie clip is back to normal self, with the selection marks clearly visible. Go to Edit Menu again and choose Cut, first part is cut and the second part, is sitting on your window, loud and clear. Save as Part 2, and now you have a huge movie file cut into two parts. You want to send them by email, edit and club with some thing else? Do what you want to.

This is a wonderful visual tool, which means it gives you a clear glimpse as to where the file is being trimmed or cut, and makes it easier to describe to others in case you are sending them these truncated files. You can use this tool to trim movie files to more than two portions, smaller clips that you could use for advertising or editing purposes, club with trimmed portion of another file and create spoofs and collages. The options are endless, given the tricks that can be undertaken with video files and editing thereon.

How about Live Streaming

Traditionally, the only way to view live video was on TV, and the Internet was able to handle text, image and audio content. However, when Internet speeds began to increase after the year 2000 or so, it became possible to download audio and video files directly to a computer before playing them - bitrates also improved over this period of time to offer this content in excellent definition and detail. The natural evolution of this process came with the introduction of broadband and fibre optic data services, and access speeds became fast enough to stream content in real-time without having to wait for a file to finish downloading.

This improved technology has now enabled broadcasters to provide live audio and video, and it is adaptable to various broadband speeds. In any developed nation, there will always be large fluctuations in connection speeds, but everyone can have the chance to access the same live content with variable quality settings. When a user starts to watch a live broadcast, an initial speed test is carried out in the background, and an image and audio bitrate is delivered to the user that streams as smoothly as possible. In the event that the feed begins to break up or buffer, the content will automatically step-down in quality. This technology to enhance the user experience is already in place for the major Video on Demand providers, and smaller operations can now use it to deliver programmes to their own fans as well.

Live streaming has also been developed to allow viewers flexibility over what they are watching - if the broadcaster decides to offer some extra features. It is possible to incorporate technology that pauses and rewinds live content, along with a facility to simply return to the live action with the click on a button. This is a great feature for live sporting events, as it gives the viewer their own 'Instant Replay' facility, and it is equally useful when the phone rings! Users can also be allowed to scroll through a live broadcast that is already in progress, which is useful if they need to catch up quickly.

This form of online broadcasting has to potential to be used by a wide variety of businesses, organisations and individuals, and it allows the public to engage in a way that only used to be possible with expensive investment in TV equipment. Bands and artists use it to provide intimate access to concerts and rehearsal sessions, while a business may decide to broadcast keynote speeches and press conferences. The Internet makes it possible for live streams to be accessed anywhere in the world - 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Content can be made entirely public, or access can be offered to selected users if that is more desirable using the same technology that protects conventional web pages. With HD technology becoming commonplace in this area, it has already caught up with regular broadcast television in a number of respects, and it is only a matter of time before it becomes the medium of choice for many.

Cross-Platform Java Bot Used for DDoS Attacks



Java
The java platform is used in DDOS attacks by bot. The malicious Java application can be run on Windows, OS X and Linux machines. Kaspersky Lab researchers analyzed a malware that infects computers to form a botnet - a network of zombie computers - and use it in attacks distributed denial of service.

This botnet is controlled via IRC protocol to conduct targeted attacks on IP addresses. Attackers can adjust the intensity of the attack and its duration. It uses a data stream via HTTP or UDP. At least one target of this botnet was an email service.

The malware behind the botnet is written entirely in Java. Through this platform, it can be run on Windows, OS X and Linux. Still, it runs a Java vulnerability for which a patch exists since June 2013.

This vulnerability is present in the Java Runtime Environment with Oracle Java SE 7 Update 21 and earlier, and Java 6 Update 45 and earlier. This is not the first time a botnet infects the three most popular operating systems.

Opera 19 with Bookmark API Released!



Opera 19

Opera has been released its browser in a new version Opera 19 . The Opera19 web browser has the latest release of some interesting features that Google Chrome have already.

 Among other things, there is a new Bookmarks Bar for managing bookmarks, wallpapers for the individual design of the browser extensions and a new section for advanced user’s settings. According to the developer's blog, the new stable release will be presented with the version number 19.0.1326.47.

Opera thus offers very similar features, such as based on the same rendering engine flashing Chrome browser. The new bookmarks API brings a one - collapsible bookmark bar which can be operated under Windows simply by dragging and dropping. With the reintroduction of bookmarks a basic function comes back; which was completely lacked since version 15. Now Photos can be used in the browser as wallpaper (right click on photos that are opened in the browser - "Use Image as Theme" > ).

 In the available extensions, there are two major innovations; first one is, there is a blacklisting of add- ons as well as an inline -install option. On the other hand, there are still a number of smaller improvements that have been set out in detail in the change log.

In addition, Opera Software announced that it has provided a more than 700 enhancements in total for users benefit. Opera have currently created a few new settings with the Opera 19.0.1326.47 and Opera has made available the new version for OS X too. The updates are now available for free.
