vobcopy called without arguments will find the mounted dvd and copy the title with the most chapters to the current working directory (thats the directory you're invoking vobcopy from). It will merge together the sub-vobs of each title-vob (vts_xx_yy.vob => the xx is the title-vob, the yy and friends are the sub-vobs, mostly of 1 GB size) and copy them to harddisk in 2 GB chunks. It will get the title of the movie from the dvd and copy the data to name-of-moviexx-1.vob, name-of-moviexx-2.vob (the xx being the title number). Also possible is to mirror the whole video dvd content and single files can also be copied.

Apetag is command line tagging tool for music files such as Monkey's Audio and Musepack using the APE 2.0 standard. Apetag comes with a python script, tagdir.py which will tag all tracks belonging to a given album based on the freedb record. (A simple tool for retrieved such records is freedbtool.) tagdir.py will invoke the appropriate tagging tool depending on the music files present. Currently supported are apetag for mpc files and metaflac for flac files. Also included is a simple script rmid3tag.py which removes id3v1 tags from arbitrary files. Author: Robert Muth

HTTrack is an offline browser utility, allowing you to download a World Wide website from the Internet to a local directory, building recursively all directories, getting html, images, and other files from the server to your computer. HTTrack arranges the original site's relative link-structure. Simply open a page of the 'mirrored' website in your browser, and you can browse the site from link to link, as if you were viewing it online. HTTrack can also update an existing mirrored site, and resume interrupted downloads. HTTrack is fully configurable, and has an integrated help system. Authors: Xavier Roche

KeyTouch is a program which allows you to easily configure the extra function keys of your keyboard. This means that you can define, for every individual function key, what to do if it is pressed. When you buy a new keyboard a CD-ROM will probably included. This CD-ROM contains software to configure the extra function keys (the image above shows an example of extra function keys) of your keyboard with. The problem however is that most of the times the software is not available for Linux. KeyTouch is the solution to this problem. It allows you to easily configure the extra funtion keys of your keyboard. Author: Marvin Raaijmakers

Of course it may be possible that your keyboard is not supported yet by key-Touch. However by using keyTouch editor you can get your keyboard supported. Author: Marvin Raaijmakers

Small tool to adjust screen brightness on nVidia cards that supports SmartDimmer. Tested with nVIDIA Geforce Go 6200 on a Sony Vaio VGN-S480 laptop. Use at your own risk... The PCM register on the nVIDIA card was found using numerous register dumps in Cygwin under Windows and comparing the differing registers. The register is accessed using libbackend from nvclock and this setting will most likely be incorporated into nvclock in the near future, which will render this tool obsolete. Author: Erik Waling

Aubio is a library for audio labelling. Features include onset detection (the complex task of labelling the beginning of notes and other sound events), silence detection (an easier but very useful task) and pitch detection (the estimation of the fundamental frequency of the sound). The aim is to add these automatic labelling features to other audio softwares. Functions can be used offline in sound editors and software samplers, or online in audio effects and virtual instruments. Aubio is still in an alpha state. More to come soon, suggestions and feedback welcome. The name Aubio comes from 'audio' with a typo. It is likely to have many transcription errors in the results too! This code has been written by Paul Brossier . It is based on recent techniques developed at Queen Mary College, University of London. Author: Paul Brossier

5ball is a simple logic game. The goal of the game is to make the maximum number of lines with balls of the same color. A line is made of five balls. Each time you don't do a line, extra balls appear on the grid. You loose when the grid is full. This is a logic game, lining up 5 balls of like color to get them off a grid, to keep the grid from filling up. Requires 1024x768 or better screen resolution. It looks a lot like klines, but with bigger balls. 5ball is actually a modification of gtkBalls (a game similar to klines but with several features giving it loads of potential -- but somewhat lacking in the UI department.) All the other 'Lines' games I have tried were too small on a decent screen. This one is big and the chicks think it's sexy. Yeah. Authors: see AUTHORS

LibTMCG is a C++ library for creating secure and fair online card games. The library contains a sort of useful classes, algorithms, and high-level protocols to support an application programmer in writing such software. The most remarkable feature is the absence of a trusted third party (TTP), i.e. neither a central game server nor trusted hardware components are necessary. Thus, with the present library there is no need for an independent referee, because the applied protocols provide a basic level of confidentiality and fairness by itself. Consequently, the library is well-suited for peer-to-peer (P2P) environments where no TTP is available. Of course, we cannot avoid that malicious players share information about their private cards, but the protocols ensure that the shuffle of the deck is performed randomly (presumed that at least one player is honest) and thus the cards will be distributed uniformly among the players. Further, no coalition can learn the private cards of a player against his will (except for trivial conclusions). The corresponding cryptographic problem, actually called Mental Poker, has been studied since 1979 (Shamir, Rivest, and Adleman) by many authors. LibTMCG provides the first practical implementation of such protocols. The implementation relies on advanced cryptographic techniques---the so-called zero-knowledge proofs. Using these building blocks the high level protocols minimize the effect of coalitions and preserve the confidentiality of the players' strategy, i.e. the players are not required to reveal their cards at the end of the game to show that they did not cheat. Author: Heiko Stamer

SecureSkat is a peer-to-peer implementation of the German card game Skat. The program negotiates participating players and game sessions over an arbitrary IRC network (Internet Relay Chat). Neither a trusted third-party (dealer) nor a centralized game server is necessary.

Cultivation is a game about a community of gardeners growing food for themselves in a shared space. Cultivation is quite different from most other games. It is a social simulation, and the primary form of conflict is over land and plant resources --- there is no shooting, but there are plenty of angry looks. It is also an evolution simulation. Within the world of Cultivation, you can explore a virtually infinite spectrum of different plant and gardener varieties. All of the graphics, sounds, melodies,and other content in Cultivation are 100% procedurally generated at playtime. In other words, there are no hand-painted texture maps --- instead, each object has a uniquely 'grown' appearance. Every time you play, Cultivation generates fresh visuals, music, and behaviors.

Audiere is a high-level audio API. It can play Ogg Vorbis, MP3, FLAC, uncompressed WAV, AIFF, MOD, S3M, XM, and IT files. For audio output, Audiere supports DirectSound or WinMM in Windows, OSS on Linux and Cygwin, and SGI AL on IRIX. Audiere is open source and licensed under the LGPL. This means that you may freely use Audiere in commercial products, as long as you do not modify the source code. If you do modify Audiere and release a product that uses your modifications, you must release your changes to the code under the LGPL as well. Audiere is portable. It is tested on Windows, Linux-i386, Cygwin, and IRIX with at least three major compilers. Most of Audiere is endian-independent, so I expect it would work with few modifications on other architectures. Author: Chad Austin

Allegro is a cross-platform library intended for use in computer games and other types of multimedia programming.

AllegroGL is an Allegro add-on that allows you to use OpenGL alongside Allegro. You use OpenGL for your rendering to the screen, and Allegro for miscellaneous tasks like gathering input, doing timers, getting cross-platform portability, loading data, and drawing your textures. So this library fills the same hole that things like glut do. AllegroGL also automatically exposes most, if not all, OpenGL extensions available to user programs. This means you no longer have to manually load them; extension management is already done for you.
