Audiolibros

Hace unas semanas comentaba en el blog de un amiguete que me ha dado por los audiolibros, libros en formato mp3 que se escuchan en lugar de leerlos. Creo que es algo que mucha gente no sabe que existe, así que me he decidido a escribir sobre ello.

Asterisk and daemontools

  • english
  • spanish

I’ve just released my daemontools “run” scripts for Asterisk. They are here: asterisk-daemontools [README]

The scripts let you configure via variables on the “env” dir the PATH to the Asterisk exec, the user and group to launch it with, and the startup options you want to pass it. About running Asterisk with a given user, I’ve found problems with Asterisk 1.2 and the -U and -G options, so the scripts only use those options if you’re running Asterisk 1.4 and revert to “su” otherwise.

There’s also a script forFlash Operator Panel’s “fopserver”.

I’m using these scripts on several Asterisk 1.2 and 1.4 servers with FreePBX.

Read the full article to see the “run” scripts.

jLanguage 2.0

  • english

Last monday version 2.0 of the jLanguage plugin was released. Besides fixing the bug that prevented articles with new lines, paragraphs, lists, etc. from showing up properly, this new version adds a centralized options menu and the hability to translate the articles’ titles.

Highly recommended. :)

Affordable music-broadcasting system for home

  • english
  • spanish

My wife and I like music. Rock mostly, so we don’t even have to fight about what to play. There’re some radio stations here in Spain which play mostly rock, but then comes the usual news program, or a sports one… so we wanted an easy (and affordable) way to broadcast our own music all over the hose.
