Create Subtitle and Embed Subtitle Into Video

I create this article because today I want to add translation text in a music video. I search some information from the internet about it. What I want is a free and simple application. Then I find some steps to create and embed subtitle into a video. First, you create SubRip (.srt) file using an application named Subtitle Workshop. Then you can embed it using another application. The simplest way is by using Freemake Video Converter but if you want more advance you can use VirtualDub.

Using Subtitle Workshop is so easy and simple. Anyway, it's better if you use some shortcut keyboard keys when you work on this application like ALT+C and ALT+V to set the start and end time of a subtitle. When you have finished this step you will have SubRip (.srt) file. At this time you have been able to watch your video with the subtitle on a media player like Windows Media Player, VLC, etc. But, if you want to embed your subtitle in your video you can go to the next step.

Subtitle Workshop

Like its name, basically Freemake Video Converter is a video converter application. But, it has a feature to add subtitle into video that will be converted. What you need to do just choose the video then choose the subtitle that had been created by Subtitle Workshop.

Freemake Video Converter

If you need better subtitle quality, you can use VirtualDub. It's an open source application. Like some of other open source applications, it's not user friendly in the installation process, you need download VirtualDub and additional program which is needed separately. The steps are as follows.

Download VirtualDub. You don't need installation process. You can run VirtualDub.exe after download was completed.
Add Subtitle Plugin to VirtualDub.
Download SRT to SSA Converter. VirtualDub doesn't accept SRT file so you must convert the subtitle file that had been created by Subtitle Workshop before. With this application you can configure the text position, font color, etc.
Last, you add the video and the SSA file into VirtualDub then run the compression process. You can adjust video and compression properties before.

For more detail instructions and steps about how to use VirtualDub, you can learn from this site.

This is video with embedded subtitle using Freemake Video Converter. The SRT file which had been built still doesn't have text properties. The video compression result isn't so good where it leaves a number of black area on the side of video frame.

Subtitle of this video embedded by VirtualDub. The SSA file has some text properties that has been adjusted by using SRT to SSA converter.

Setting Up Next.js Project With ESLint, Typescript, and AirBnB Configuration

If we initiate a Next.js project using the create-next-app tool, our project will be included with ESLint configuration that we can apply using yarn run lint . By default, the tool installs eslint-config-next and extends next/core-web-vitals in the ESLint configuration. The Next.js configuration has been integrated with linting rules for React and several other libraries and tools. yarn create next-app --typescript For additional configuration such as AirBnB, it is also possible. First, we need to install the peer dependencies of eslint-config-airbnb . We also add support for Typescript using eslint-config-airbnb-typescript . yarn add --dev eslint-config-airbnb eslint-plugin-import eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y eslint-plugin-react eslint-plugin-react-hooks yarn add --dev eslint-config-airbnb-typescript @typescript-eslint/eslint-plugin @typescript-eslint/parser After that, we can update the .eslintrc.json file for the new configuration. { "extends": [ "airb

Configuring Swap Memory on Ubuntu Using Ansible

If we maintain a Linux machine with a low memory capacity while we are required to run an application with high memory consumption, enabling swap memory is an option. Ansible can be utilized as a helper tool to automate the creation of swap memory. A swap file can be allocated in the available storage of the machine. The swap file then can be assigned as a swap memory. Firstly, we should prepare the inventory file. The following snippet is an example, you must provide your own configuration. [server] 192.168.1.2 [server:vars] ansible_user=root ansible_ssh_private_key_file=~/.ssh/id_rsa Secondly, we need to prepare the task file that contains not only the tasks but also some variables and connection information. For instance, we set /swapfile as the name of our swap file. We also set the swap memory size to 2GB and the swappiness level to 60. - hosts: server become: true vars: swap_vars: size: 2G swappiness: 60 For simplicity, we only check the exi

Rangkaian Sensor Infrared dengan Photo Dioda

Keunggulan photodioda dibandingkan LDR adalah photodioda lebih tidak rentan terhadap noise karena hanya menerima sinar infrared, sedangkan LDR menerima seluruh cahaya yang ada termasuk infrared. Rangkaian yang akan kita gunakan adalah seperti gambar di bawah ini. Pada saat intensitas Infrared yang diterima Photodiode besar maka tahanan Photodiode menjadi kecil, sedangkan jika intensitas Infrared yang diterima Photodiode kecil maka tahanan yang dimiliki photodiode besar. Jika tahanan photodiode kecil maka tegangan V- akan kecil . Misal tahanan photodiode mengecil menjadi 10kOhm. Maka dengan teorema pembagi tegangan: V- = Rrx/(Rrx + R2) x Vcc V- = 10 / (10+10) x Vcc V- = (1/2) x 5 Volt V- = 2.5 Volt Sedangkan jika tahanan photodiode besar maka tegangan V- akan besar (mendekati nilai Vcc). Misal tahanan photodiode menjadi 150kOhm. Maka dengan teorema pembagi tegangan: V- = Rrx/(Rrx + R2) x Vcc V- = 150 / (150+10) x Vcc V- = (150/160) x 5

Managing MongoDB Records Using NestJS and Mongoose

NestJS is a framework for developing Node.js-based applications. It provides an additional abstraction layer on top of Express or other HTTP handlers and gives developers a stable foundation to build applications with structured procedures. Meanwhile, Mongoose is a schema modeling helper based on Node.js for MongoDB. There are several main steps to be performed for allowing our program to handle MongoDB records. First, we need to add the dependencies which are @nestjs/mongoose , mongoose , and @types/mongoose . Then, we need to define the connection configuration on the application module decorator. import { MongooseModule } from '@nestjs/mongoose'; @Module({ imports: [ MongooseModule.forRoot('mongodb://localhost:27017/mydb'), ], controllers: [AppController], providers: [AppService], }) Next, we create the schema definition using helpers provided by NestJS and Mongoose. The following snippet is an example with a declaration of index setting and an o

Configure Gitlab SMTP Setting

Gitlab CE or EE is shipped with the capability to send messages through SMTP service as the basic feature to send notifications or updates to the users. The configuration parameters are available in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb . Each SMTP service provider has a different configuration, therefore the Gitlab configuration parameters should be adjusted according to the requirements. Some examples have been provided by Gitlab here . This is an example if you use the Zoho service. gitlab_rails['smtp_enable'] = true gitlab_rails['smtp_address'] = "smtp.zoho.com" gitlab_rails['smtp_port'] = 587 gitlab_rails['smtp_authentication'] = "plain" gitlab_rails['smtp_enable_starttls_auto'] = true gitlab_rails['smtp_user_name'] = "gitlab@mydomain.com" gitlab_rails['smtp_password'] = "mypassword" gitlab_rails['smtp_domain'] = "smtp.zoho.com" This is another example of using Amazon SES w

Resize VirtualBox LVM Storage

VirtualBox is a free solution to host virtual machines on your computer. It provides configuration options for many components on our machine such as memory, storage, networking, etc. It also allows us to resize our machine storage after its operating system is installed. LVM is a volume manager in a Linux platform that helps us to allocate partitions in the system and configure the storage size that will be utilized for a specific volume group. There are some points to be noticed when we work with LVM on VirtualBox to resize our storage. These are some steps that need to be performed. 1. Stop your machine before resizing the storage. 2. Set new storage size using GUI by selecting " File > Virtual Media Manager > Properties " then find the desired virtual hard disk name that will be resized. OR , by running a CLI program located in " Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe ". cd "/c/Program Files/Oracle/VirtualBox" ./VBoxManage.exe list
