Released Webcamoid 5.1.0 and going to the next step.

Yesterday, I've released Webcamoid 5.1.0. This release includes many improvements and changes, the most important changes are:

• From now on, Webcamod will be developed using Qt5. Qt4 can be considered as an obsolete technology.
• Dependency reduction. This makes the program easy to port to many platforms with minimal effort, reduces the bugs caused by 3rd-party libraries, and reduces the disk usage.
• Webcamoid born as a KDE plasmoid, but since KDE is in transition from Qt4 to Qt5, and Qt5 plugins aren't compatible with Qt4, I must remove the plasmoid. The development and survival of Webcamoid is a priority.
• Webcamoid for Windows is near. Only a few patches are needed. This is necessary because Webcamoid adoption in GNU/Linux is not going so well (people seems not to be interested and I don't know why), and this strategy can give a boost to the project.

And now let's see what comes for the next release (Webcamoid 6.0.0).

Compile QXmpp in Windows with full support

People keep asking me about how to compile my VoipTest example in Windows, even when they know I'm GNU/Linux only guy. Many people complains that they can hear the audio in VoipTest, but they doesn't receives the video signal, this occurs because they doesn't not compiles QXmpp with Speex, Opus, Theora and Vpx codecs.
So, in this post I will teach you how to compile QXmpp with full codec support in Windows :)

Camicri Cube: Descarga de paquetes offline para Debian, Ubuntu y Mint

Cada tanto me llega alguna consulta a mi mail preguntándome sobre Sushi, huh?, muchas veces me preguntan por algún bug que quedó remanente. El problema es que en estos momentos estoy muy ocupado con el desarrollo Webcamoid y proyectos similares, y con el poco tiempo que tengo disponible, no puedo dedicarle tiempo a un proyecto minoritario.

Así que aquí les presento un programa para todos aquellos que necesitan descargar paquetes para sus distribuciones.

Code highlight module

We continue adding new modules to our blog using the dynamic loader. This time, we will add a very useful module for people who needs to show source code in their posts. The following module will allow you to use the Alex Gorbatchev's SyntaxHighlighter.
