Steinway in Bellevue Key Center
Still getting the hang of using Dr. DivX for cropping video and editing audio. I was able to record a little [piano improv] while playing next to the Starbucks in the Key Center in Bellevue, WA.
Making Fish #3 with Zbrush
This weekend I figured out how to create and encode DivX video files. I configured WinXP Pro to use a dual video display and pipe a clone of the screen via SVIDEO. I used a SVIDEO cable to pipe the SVIDEO out directly into the SVIDEO in and used Dr. DivX Live Capture to record the video feed. Then I opened up the recorded AVI in Dr. DivX again and reduced the video size from 45M to about 8M, sacrificing some quality. I recorded audio using a microphone, in this version it just sounds like mumbling. I’ll work the audio part out later. With that said, take a look at the [making of fish #3]. You’ll need to DivX codec from [divx.com].

UTF8 Encoding with C# .NET
Occasionally when working with the web you may need to UTF8 encode something you are working on. Here’s a little snippet that shows how to UTF8 encode in C#.
String script = "A string that I need to UTF8 Encode!";
if(script == null || script.Length == 0)
return "";
System.Text.UTF8Encoding newUTF8Encoding = new System.Text.UTF8Encoding();
System.Text.Encoder newEncoder = newUTF8Encoding.GetEncoder();
Int32 encodingLength =
newEncoder.GetByteCount(script.ToCharArray(), 0, script.Length, true);
Byte[] encodedScript = new Byte[ encodingLength ];
newEncoder.GetBytes(script.ToCharArray(), 0, script.Length, encodedScript, 0, true);
String uft8Script = "";
foreach(Byte b in encodedScript)
{
uft8Script += "&#"+(Int32)b+";";
}
