About: Advene (Annotate Digital Video, Exchange on the NEt) is aimed at
providing a model and a format to share annotations about digital video
documents (movies, courses, conferences, etc.), as well as tools to edit
and visualize the hypervideos generated from both the annotations and the
audiovisual documents. Teachers, moviegoers, etc. can use them to exchange
multimedia comments and analyses about video documents. The project also
aims at studying the way that communities of users (teachers, moviegoers,
students, etc.) will use these self-publishing tools to share their
audiovisual "readings", and to envision new editing and viewing interfaces
for interactive comment and analysis of audiovisual content.
Changes: Along with many usability enhancements, this version offers a new
virtual montage view, and many improvements in the timeline for viewing and
editing/organising annotations. Text autocompletion has been generalized to
the note-taking editor. The results of searches can be converted into
montages or new annotations. Dynamic views editing is improved by the
availability of common predefined values and the ability to activate
multiple dynamic views. Importers for MPEG7 (FreeTextAnnotations), Anvil,
and AnnotationGraph have been added.

[014] - GNU ddrescue 1.7-pre1 (Development)
by Antonio Diaz Diaz (http://freshmeat.net/users/ant_diaz/)
Thu, Nov 22nd 2007 12:38
System :: Recovery Tools
About: GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file
or block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to rescue
data in case of read errors. GNU ddrescue does not truncate the output
file if not asked to. So, every time you run it on the same output file,
it tries to fill in the gaps. The basic operation of GNU ddrescue is fully
automatic. That is, you don't have to wait for an error, stop the program,
read the log, run it in reverse mode, etc. If you use the logfile feature
of GNU ddrescue, the data is rescued very efficiently (only the needed
blocks are read). Also you can interrupt the rescue at any time and resume
it later at the same point.
Changes: When splitting, this version jumps to the next non-split area
after two consecutive errors have been encountered in the current one. The
new option "--retrim" has been added.
