Commons images loop video

Do you know if there's a script or something to create a video loop of
Commons featured pictures? I need it to create the background for a video, and it would be very useful for http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Use_eye-catchers_to_attract_attention .

Quick hack:
http://toolserver.org/~magnus/browser_saver.php?category=Featured%20pictures%20on%20Wikimedia%20Commons Best viewed in full-screen mode. Tested in Firefox only.

This is neat. Needs randomizing, noscroll, wait until images are fully
loaded, opacity/fading, Ken Burnsing(?) But it is not what the uploader asked for, I guess. There are many tools that do what he wants: Gwenview/Digikam, Kdenlive for example. _______________________________________________ Commons-l mailing list Commons-l@... https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/commons-l |

Actually the most annoying thing is to download all images individually, then Magnus tool is (already) very useful. The problem is how to convert the loop into a (not huge) video to be watched without internet connection or combined with an audio recording.

I turned randomization on (was off for testing, I forgot), and now has overflow:hidden (=noscroll). All images except the first one are pre-cached. Of course, wikimedia servers are down, so no joy :-( >> But it is not what the uploader asked for, I guess.

So, some tool to (transiently) generate a tar file with all images in a category for downloading? Might be worth a try...

We are working on using the Firefogg extension to "render" browser DOM
states to ogg video with attached audio tracks. This is part of an effort to support "flattening" edited sequences that may include javascript effects and css/html/svg/dom overlays into a flat ogg video that any ogg player can view. If you can modify any of the mentioned javascript slide-show applications you could in add in an export function. You will need Firefox 3.5.x and the firefogg extension installed. ( firefogg.org ) You can see the Firefogg flattener documentation here: http://firefogg.org/dev/render.html and example usage here... http://firefogg.org/examples/framerender_example.html ... looks like the example has not been updated for the new api... I have cc'ed jan the firefogg developer perhaps he can plop in a quick fix ...( looks like its calling the addAudioUrl without the duration parameter? ) --michael Federico Leva (Nemo) wrote: > Daniel Schwen, 22/09/2009 14:45: > >> This is neat.

Might be worth a try... Yes, it would be useful. But if you need to reuse them you have the perennial problem of metadata (title, author, license) to be downloaded and added. :-/ Nemo _______________________________________________ Commons-l mailing list Commons-l@... https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/commons-l |
