Geek.com: Recording TV shows on the iPhone with the OSD


geek.com has a write up of their experience using the OSD with the iPhone. So far it's only through iTunes, but maybe some clever hacker can solve this? Seems to me that it could be done by simply setting the OSD to record to a shared directory and automated with applescript on iTunes, or maybe there's a clever way to do it directly with the OSD and iPhone?

Discuss on mailing list should we have another bounty?

YouTube on the TV with the OSD


NEUROS OSD YOUTUBE OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE

Not many areas of the internet can inspire the imagination about the future of communication more than Internet video. Within a year of its inception, YouTube had already become a phenomenon that had changed elections and the media forever. Its removed barriers of communication that have existed since the inception of radio and television. Never before has the power to broadcast to the world been held in the hand of practically every individual with something to say.

Until you actually experience it, you might not appreciate how powerful moving that phenomenon to the TV set actually is. You might think it's just another screen in the house, but use it and you'll find it completely changes the way you use it. Instead of hunched over the computer alone, you'll find yourself sharing videos with your friends on the couch, or watching from bed just before sleep.

Crweb Joins Full Time!

Welcome aboard Crweb (officially)! There isn't anything at Neuros that's more rewarding than bringing on a deserving volunteer as a full time employee. It's one of the great joys of open source that the talented and dedicated rise to the top, and it's a great feeling to know that, from time to time, we can give something back.

Why Do We Do This?

I recently wrote Steven Robertson to say thanks for his help. His response is one of the best articulations of why we're here. Everyone at Neuros knows that the community is the reason Neuros is around. It's easy to feel grateful, but Steven's message is an important reminder of the bigger issues we must not lose sight of:

Turran's Kernel Porting Project! Standard Linux API for all!

For years my mother has complained about the non-standard way the OSD interfaces with its kernel modules. "You know Joey, I think the good Lord knew a thing or two when he created the standard Linux module interface." (my mother often gets Linus and the Kernel team confused with God).
"But you and your fancy pants buddies think you can do the good Lord one better with your proprietary monkey business?"
"No ma, it's not that..."
"Shat yer yap! I'm not finished ya bum!..."

Hacking Meeting with the Gao

Sea Worms -- Yes, i was tired of these chicken feetEvery other Thursday Night (US Time) we have our "Breakfast with Chairman Gao" IRC meeting. It's breakfast because it's Friday morning in Xiamen China where Gao is, even though this time, even more confusingly, he will be in Chicago.

Anyway, the exact time is Friday, May 18, 2007 at 01:00:00 UTC.

This is Evening in the USA and deep in the night for Europe. As usual #neuros on irc.freenode.net

Agenda items

  • The usual update from chairman Gao
  • Framework issues (particuliarly for OSD2)

Summer of Code begins with a vengeance

The first milestone for the ARM/DSP Bridge project has already been achieved, before the Summer of Code has even officially started! In an astounding flash of documentation reading and hacking, Summer of Code student Darchon has code running on the DSP, loaded from the ARM portion of the CPU. This work will remove a barrier currently preventing open source CODECs from running on the DSP. Don't worry, though, there is still plenty of work to be done. A protocol for efficient data transfer will have to be designed, or adapted from a similar project.

Thanks to Greyback for the great HOWTO: on mounting Network Shares on Bootup on the forums. It seems like this functionality should be incorporated into the official distribution too, right?  Thanks Greyback!
