The default install of GalleryRemote on Windows 7 64-bit works, but the client image resizing does not. This is a pain, especially these days with digital pictures that are sometimes over 10 MB. The problem was the ImageMagick library. I found this to work for me: Install Imagamagick Pick the Q16-windows-x64-static.exe version of Imagemagick, latest… Continue reading GalleryRemote on Windows 7 64-bit

Google Maps upload – work around
For a while I’ve been unable to upload any GPS track into my Google Maps account. I use GPS Trackmaker to reduce the track that comes out of my Garmin GPS62S so that it has fewer than 400 data points. But since last September, I always get this error when I try to upload it:… Continue reading Google Maps upload – work around

Make iscsitarget listen on specific address
I set up iscsitarget on one of my Ubuntu Lucid boxes and it seemed to work. I let one of my VMware ESX hosts scan it, and it sure enough found my LUN, but via two paths. Turned out that because the host running iscsitarget has two NICs, the ESX host sees two paths. Not… Continue reading Make iscsitarget listen on specific address
Dell Latitude 2110 running Windows 7 64 bit
Last week I received a shiny new Dell Latitude 2100 netbook. I picked this laptop to replace our old D610s, which cannot run Windows 7. As soon as I deployed my Windows 7 64 bit image onto it, I saw that a lot of devices were missing a driver. Unfortunately the Dell support site does… Continue reading Dell Latitude 2110 running Windows 7 64 bit

I have recently moved to Google Apps. One of the nice things is that you can have IMAP access so you can keep using the MUA of your choice. If you have the paid version (Premier Edition), IMAP migration can be done smoothly using the migration tools, which suck messages from your old IMAP account… Continue reading Google Apps IMAP migration
H.264 Encoding for Android
After some experimenting it turned out that H.264 video needs to be encoded using the Baseline Profile for the HTC Hero (running Android 1.5) to be able to play it. High Profile will not play at all on the phone. Main Profile will play, but gives an entirely green video – unusable.
VLC H264 performance issues – solved
This summer I took my Dell Latitude D830 with me on holiday to view the movies that I recorded with a Panasonic HD video camera. Frustratingly enough, in France it turned out to be impossible to play them on my laptop 🙁 Spent hours fiddling with every imaginable setting. At home everything worked fine though.… Continue reading VLC H264 performance issues – solved
