== Assignment #2 ==
Your assignment objective is to use Linux tools to convert/transcode DV footage in Quicktime format to OGG and MPEG2/4 formats.
The footage is available on the Ireland server in /home/michal/mozilla/ directory.
There are 13 files in total, all recorded during the Mozilla Developer Days at Seneca earlier this semester.
The following is the list of files, including their approximate size.
Day 1 - 1000 am_Rm. 1014 (8 GB) - SC<br />
Day 1 - 100 pm_Rm. 1014 (8GB) - SC<br />
Day 1 - 1044 am_Rm. 1014 (10GB) - TC<br />
Day 1 - 1130 am_Rm. 1014 (5 GB) - TC<br />
Day 1 - 144 pm_Rm. 1014 (12 GB) - PC<br />
Day 1 - 155pm_Web Track (5 GB) - VJ<br />
Day 1 - 300 pm_Rm. 1014 (10 GB) - VJ<br />
Day 1 - 345pm_Multimedia (10 GB) - KL<br />
Day 2 - 100 pm_Tel. Rm. 1009 (10 GB) - GM<br />
Day 2 - 1030 am_Tel. Rm. 1009 (7 GB) - MP<br />
Day 2 - 1115 am_Tel. Rm. 1009 (6 GB) - MP<br />
Day 2 - 200 pm_Tel. Rm. 1009 (2 GB) - MV<br />
Day 2 - 930 am_Tel. Rm. 1009 (10 GB) - MV<br />
The initials at the end of each file name above, indicate the student that is in charge of converting a particular file.
Please note that students that have only one file assigned will need to complete an additional conversion.
Each file needs to be transcoded to the following formats:
* OGG Best Quality (native size)
* OGG Broadband Quality (564 Kbps)
* OGG Low Quality (128 Kbps)
* MPEG-4 AVI Medium Quality (564 Kbps)
Students with a single file assigned, must also provide the following:
* H.268 in 3G Mobile Quality
Other students may complete this transcode optionally.
For best result, please use a dual-pass conversion (if available). Also, please note that the disk space on Ireland is limited so using another system to complete this assignment will probably work best.
This assignment is worth 10% of your course grade and is due on December 5 at 11:59 p.m. Please post your blog and send a submission email to your teacher by the due date. Converted files are to be copied to the /home/michal/upload/ directory on the Ireland server. Please use the following naming convention for your files:
If the original file name was: "Original_file"...<br />
The maximum-quality OGG file name should be: "Original_file_max.ogg",<br />
The broadband-quality OGG file name should be: "Original_file_broadband.ogg",<br />
The low-quality OGG file name should be: "Original_file_low.ogg",<br />
The MPEG-4 AVI file name should be: "Original_file.avi",<br />
The H.268 AVI file name should be: "Original_file.mp4"
