Compile latest version of ffplay from source Note that this script doesn't overwrite the existing ffmpeg installation: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Centos The gotcha in the above guide is the SDL-devel package without which ffplay will not build. #! /bin/bash yum install autoconf automake cmake freetype-devel gcc gcc-c++ git libtool make mercurial nasm pkgconfig zlib-devel SDL-devel mkdir ~/ffmpeg_sources cd ~/ffmpeg_sources git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/yasm/yasm.git cd yasm autoreconf -fiv ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --bindir="$HOME/bin" make make install make distclean cd ~/ffmpeg_sources git clone --depth 1 git://git.videolan.org/x264 cd x264 PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HOME/ffmpeg_build/lib/pkgconfig" ./configure --prefix="$HOME/ffmpeg_build" --bindir="$HOME/bin" --enable-static make make install make distclean cd ~/ffmpeg_sources hg clone https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265 cd ~/ff...

Unsolicited Advertisements To add insult to injury, Microsoft Windows 10 now displays advertisements right in the File Explorer.  I'll leave it to you to figure out why that is a very bad security problem.   Rusted Sieve Windows 10 is about as secure as a rusted sieve, with a few deliberate holes poked in it for good measure.  Microsoft essentially tries to convert your Personal Computer into a cell phone, which is a purpose built blabbing and tracking device.  They don't seem to understand the word 'personal' in 'PC' though. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-update/what-is-diagnostics-tracking-service-which-was/253fe2ec-fba6-4240-bfb8-2a3bdc801ed1?auth=1 Examples of data we collect include your name, email address, preferences and interests; browsing, search and file history; phone call and SMS data ; device configuration and sensor data; and application usage.

I was trying to download log files and video off an ARM based system and it took forever.  So I experimented with the SSH encryption and compression options to speed it up.  Since a typical embedded system has a dinky little processor, selecting a simpler encryption algorithm can make a huge difference. AES vs Blowfish The standard copy command "s...
