HowTo: Split MP3s by silence detection using mp3splt

(Submitted on Sun, 2012-04-01 00:44)

This is probably the most useful command when it comes to splitting large mp3 files. You'll need mp3splt (http://mp3splt.sourceforge.net) and you're ready to go:

mp3splt -s -p th=-40,min=6,rm <big mp3 file>

Parameters explanation:

-s: silence mode; activate silence detection
-p: specify arguments for the silence mode
th=-40: threshold level (dB) to be considered silence
min=6: minimum number of seconds to be considered as splitpoint
rm: remove silence from splitted files

Be sure to have a look at the manpage.

HowTo: Have a web performance boost with Nginx

Why Nginx?

Since I wanted to improve my sites load speed I thought I should look around for some lighttpd-alternatives which I have used for so many years. The really annoying thing about lighttpd is its configuration syntax. I don't think it's comprehensive nor easy to learn. Besides that I wanted to have a configuration where memcahed plays a major role: Serve static content (html) from memcache. Lighttpd does have some modules/tutorials how to interact with memcached but I couldn't find any working configuration.

I thought this could be useful for other Namecheap customers. Namecheaps Open-Xchange servers use only secure connnections (STARTTLS, SSL/TLS).

About me

If I had to describe myself in one word, that would be: diversity. I love/live life in its entirety! Life's so terribly short, so don't waste your time :) Originally I come from Romania (Oneşti jud. Bacău), but nowadays I live in Berlin, Germany. I was born in '88 and at the moment I study computer sciene.

Typical computer enthuasiast, you say? Farfetched! Indeed my main and most important affection are computer systems, networks etc. Yet there are some domains like Code Auditing, Linux Kernel/Network/System programming, Web 2.0 Applications and last but not least Software Engineering I'm especially interested in.
