Programming Saturday: rav1e GUI

Programming Saturday: rav1e GUI

Hi everyone, Today, I spent the afternoon programming my rav1e GUI software. It’s been about a month since I last released a rav1e GUI update, and rav1e itself has improved by then. While I still haven’t released a new GUI version, I did some programming to it to add some of the new rav1e features. Unfortunately, the tests were not successful and I believe this has to do to some changed in the encoder itself. Don’t worry, I’ve opened an…

Learning and Programming Days – DLNA Player

Learning and Programming Days – DLNA Player

Hi everyone, I got my HiBy R3 music player some time ago and I’ve been enjoying it a lot, and I recently started playing the DLNA portion of it. Using DLNA with Android is a piece of cake thanks to an app called BubbleUPnP, for which I purchased the app license as it allows me to stream my media files without limitations compared with the free version.

Yet another update of the Google Drive software I wrote (v1.8.3)

Yet another update of the Google Drive software I wrote (v1.8.3)

Hi everyone, Today morning, I continued working with the Google Drive Upload Tool I wrote last year. This time, I implemented a feature that lets you know the copy progress when a file is being copied to RAM before uploading it. This required some code changes and a little refactoring. First, the UpdateBytesSent function was updated, with a new Delegate Sub invoker for when we need to invoke certain elements. It also now requires the passing of parameters BytesSent, StatusText, and startTime: By doing this code rewrite,…

Windows and Linux can work together. How to execute a Linux command from Visual Basic?

Hi everyone, In this post, I’d like to show you how easy it is to connect your Windows software to linux commands and software. As you may know, Windows now includes the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), which allows you to run a bash terminal and execute linux utilites as well as install software from the repository. Now, this is not virtualized. Rather, it uses a compatibility layer which allows it to execute linux tools on Windows. This is not…
