How does Cloudron work? What does it do? etc :)

[marcusquinn]

Adding a note the convo without completely reading but if there's effort to build a video library to promote and educate on features, I'd suggest aiming to segment into 2-5min videos per topic, attention-spans online aren't long enough for 30 min tutorials for the average prospect.

@marcusquinn and to add to that, any video that's going to be shared on socials (where most people discover video) really needs to be very clear what it's about and have a hook in the first 10 seconds (most videos aren't watch past that - if a video doesn't grab you in the first 10 seconds, you don't watch it).

@girish thanks!

@jdaviescoates I have been messing around with a few "intro to cloudron" scripts, testing out OBS backdrops and mic settings. Will share a draft when I have a legit one compiled =] Hopefully sooner than later lol

[jdaviescoates]

@plusone-nick nice, looking forward to seeing it, thanks

[nebulon]

@jdaviescoates I rotated the video now and uploaded it to https://videos.cloudron.io/videos/watch/79a34d05-a60b-4ec3-9327-fd736016494c

@jdaviescoates nicely done.

What is the file size?

Can you share with me the edited video, so I can post it to our new BayLISA.org YT channel?

Perhaps over a FilePizza link or whatever works for you.

[robi]

@nebulon ooh, thank you, just saw this! I'll see if we can use this one.

[jdaviescoates]

@robi yeah I think @nebulon has done a better job of rotating than I did. I guess he probably just used some command line tools? My file ended up over 3gb and had black space all around the edges.

[nebulon]

Indeed fyi I used:

ffmpeg -i BayLISA-Cloudron.mp4 -vf "transpose=2" BayLISA-Cloudron-rotated.mp4

the value 2 here is for 90° counter clock-wise, it took me 2 attempts to get the right value...happens when you don't read the docs

[robi]

@nebulon How big was the file?

[nebulon]

@robi 88MB looks like, the original was 180MB so I guess it also did some compression alongside. Overall the quality is not really stellar, but luckily the sound is fine.

[robi]

@nebulon great, check you email please

[jdaviescoates]

@staff is there a handy list of all the addons Cloudron currently has? Ideally with a brief description of what they do/ what they are for? Thanks

@mehdi doh, thanks!

Just realised you're missing about half an hour on that video!

[robi]

@jdaviescoates Nice catch! You're right, seems to be cut off at the end.

[nebulon]

@robi indeed, have to see why that happened So the root cause is that either the video on persicope is cut off or the download from periscope just stops at some point. Not sure, however I wasn't able to fully download it thus far.

[jdaviescoates]

@nebulon I've got the complete original from periscope if that helps?

When I tried Alltube, it didn't work, but that periscope download link I shared above worked for me.
