Here's a couple of tips for you multimedia lovers.
I was looking for a program to record various forms of sound input (audio streams, mic input etc) and i found a nice program called mp3record (http://www.bluedogtek.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownloaddetails&lid=2&ttitle=mp3Record). It's a cli program but really easy to install and use. I had just two issues. After running the install script, I needed to make the program executable. As root just do this: chmod +x /usr/bin/mp3record. Secondly when you are recording from a microphone you need to make sure that your volume levels are turned up - esp igain. Use aumix to adjust these.
The second tip is regarding photos. I've got a digital camera and I've had a hard time finding ways to remove red eye in linux. There are tons of programs to do this in Windows. I found a nice little plugin for Gimp that does a great job however. Just go to this page (http://fmg-www.cs.ucla.edu/fmg-members/geoff/digicam/) and look for the red eye plugin script.
Have fun with your multimedia!
