This was a great photo trip, I was leaning over the fence at an old opencast site to photo The Ace Of Spades, a giant walking dragline excavator, which was being decommissioned and destined for a Indiana mine. The boss saw me and came over and invited me in for a proper look round it. Fab bloke, and a fab experience. I like the photo of the cab as it was and after being rebuilt in Indiana. #Excavator #Dragline #Coal #Opencast #Industry #Stobswood #AceOfSpades

im looking at @owncast for some future projects. this is both for myself & for where I work. with in music

but there is a question that im needing answering.
I want to only do music, not video. but from what I've seen of owncast it seems its video focused, but im more wanting a radio station rather than a video platform.
purely for reasons to make it easier for people to listen without the stress of bandwidth so much

thoughts? or even other stuff that helps

@markus_netzpolitik @GratianRiter Wäre nicht vielleicht das TIB-AV-Portal der @tibhannover ein möglicher Ort für die Videos der @republica #rp25 Oder die Medienserver einer Uni? In Niedersachsen setzten meines Wissens jetzt alle Unis auf #Opencast unterstützt durch #elan-ev https://elan-ev.de/opencast-hosting/. Dort sollten auf jeden Fall die Kapazitäten für zusätzliche Videos vorhanden sein #FediCampus zumindest im Sinne der +1 Idee von @rstockm #saveSocial

"I definitely enjoy working in an environment that values cooperation over competition...everything I do for the project is something the whole Community profits from. It’s very satisfying work, and I think more things in the world should function like this." - Katrin Ihler, 2023 Apereo Dolphin Fellow

Plans to extend opencast mining at Wales’ last site rejected

https://www.endsreport.com/article/1837284/plans-extend-opencast-mining-wales-last-site-rejected

Wales is finished with coal mining after councillors rejected the license extension of the Glan Lash opencast mine on environmental grounds. The decision saves 95,000 tonnes of #Coal from being excavated.

You heard it first at the #Opencast summit in
Berlin!

Proprietary lecture capture solutions have become financial burdens to #HigherEducation, especially in light of
the pandemic and explosion of video content.

Meanwhile, Opencast is recognized by Streaming Media as State of the Art, "the venerable and well-maintained Opencast open source video platform."

Exciting news!

#ZKI, the German association of #HigherEducation IT centers and public-funded research organizations, has identified the #OpenSource platform, Opencast, as the leading solution for video management in #HigherEd; used even more than leading proprietary offerings such as Panopto.

Congratulations #Opencast

"Open Source for Higher Ed by Higher Ed"

Liebe Moodle und OpenCast Expert*innen, zwei Fragen:

Zugriff auf Original nicht mehr verfügbar. Nun:
1) Wie kann ich ein in Moodle eingebettetes Video als MP4-Datei (ohne Download-Funktion, aber mit direct Link zur MP4-Datei) dennoch auf meine Festplatte speichern

2) Kann ich OpenCasts (Präsentation mit Audiospur) auch irgendwie als Video oä saven? Download wird nicht angeboten, aber gibt es da einen work around?

Freue mich voll über hilfreiche Tipps. #opensource #opencast #moodle #education

Die Uni-Osnabrück entwickelt auch an #Opencast mit: "Opencast is an open source solution for automated video capture and distribution at scale." Siehe https://opencast.org/people und über den https://elan-ev.de/i
