Who to use it with Firefox:

Now I will explain you how to get it working with Firefox,

First we need a Firefox extension called: Lanchy,
this extension give us the ability to open directly from Firefox Youtube video on youtube webpage (not on all webpages that have a youtube video!

You ALWAYS need the youtube videos webpage! After you have installed Launchy (from firefoxs addon site), restart Firefox, now it will ask you to insert a Launchys button on your toolbar (DO IT! so open Youtube videos will be very simply), after that go on the preferences/option of this extension and uncheck the option: "search automatically programs".

Now copy the "launchy.xml" file that you found on the package and copy it on your directory:
".mozilla/firefox/YOUR_ID.default/chrome/" , after copied it, please dont forget to edit it with your myvs.py COMPLETE PATH, and add or delete oppurtune option to pass to the script.

Now restart again firefox an watch if it recognise the command (by pressing the G).

Go on youtube.com, open a video webpage, click on the G button-> Open in Mplayer Youtube Video Streamer.

Videoconv is a shell-based frontend to mpeg-tools, transcode, vcdimager, and cdrdao. This script converts AVI videos to VCD, SVCD, or DivX, and optionally burns them to CD. The script was designed to allow even unexperienced users to convert videos.
It is only a simple frontend to mjpeg-tools and transcode.But you will need these helpful tools:
mjpegtools (Converting)
transcode (DIVX)
videocodecs you want to use with transcode (divx5, opendivx and xvid)
vcdimager (what may this be for ?)
cdrdao (burning)
Youseful but not mandatory, versions may be higher:
divx4linux
libdvdcss2
libdvdread
libfame
win32-codecs
xvid
Enhancements:
- Quality of the generated videos was improved
- Added support for multipassencoding with divx
- PCB-Menusupport added for VCD und SVCD with vcdxgen
- Changed $ to * for the wildcard in the vcdxgen part. This should fix the error with the vcdmenuecreation
- Added option -x to transcode, because autodection of some avifiles failed
- Some minor bugfixes

This application is particularly useful for owners of digital DV video cameras and other people who use the Sony DV video format for high quality video production.

DV Assembler allows you to append multiple Sony DV files with nice looking transition effects for both audio and video. Multiple transition effects are supported, like cross-fade, zoom, blur and a flash effect.

I created DV Assembler because there are no user friendly video editing applications for Linux. Yes, Kino is promising, but its user interface is still a mess and development is slow.

DV Assembler only touches the head and tail parts of the original video files that are needed to create the transition effects. The rest of the video is left untouched, which means zero quality loss.

DV Assembler can also be used to generate video editing scripts that can be run without KDE and Kommander.

GNOME Video Arcade is a simple xmame front-end for the GNOME Desktop Environment.

Just getting this project off the ground. Im hoping to create a simple and easy-to-use xmame front-end that is not just another mame32 clone.

This project is aimed at casual gamers like myself that just want to play classic arcade games on their desktop.
