How to play Real Media files

Ever wondered how to play real media files without installing Real Media Player? Try Real Alternative. Current version is 1.90 and it also includes Media Player Classic which is a player that rivals VLC and GOM Player for that all-in-one video player for all codecs.

Happy Downloading in this last day of 2008! Looking for more blogs to enrich our knowledge in IT!

Cyberlink YouCam and CD-R King PC Camera

At the recent Christmas Party, I received a present which is the CD-R King Webcam. Yey! It's easy to install, fast and smooth. I tried installing an application called Cyberlink YouCam and yeah it worked for my web cam. It's an application for adding custom backgrounds, animations and even face warps for a fun and exciting way of utilizing your web cam.

Anyways, eventhough this PC Camera (as CD-R King has classified it as such) is not on a superb level of quality, it is a bang per buck web cam since it is easy to use and comes with a driver. If you're wondering what its specs are, here it is:

•	Product Name: PC Camera 5.0 Mega Pixels (U2)
•	Software Interpolation: 5.0 Mega Pixels for Image Capturing
•	With Face Tracking, Special Photo Effects, and Photo Frame Feature - DirectX 9.0 needed
•	Face Tracking is available only from 800 x 600 below.
•	Interface: USB 1.1 / 2.0
•	Color Depth: RGB24; I420
•	Frame Rate: 30 fps
•	S/N Ratio: 48dB
•	Gamma: 0.47
•	Grayscale: 8 scale
•	Aperture Range: F2.0 / F3.60
•	Focus Range: 8.0mm to infinity
•	Compatible with Yahoo Messenger, Skype, Live MSN
•	Compatible with XP and Vista Home Premium, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, Vista Black Edition.
•	With snapshot button

You can also find these specs on the official CD-R King Website.

Here is the site where you can find downloads of face warps, emotions and background animations for your Cyberlink YouCam.

To import an Emotion Effect file in YouCam, just click the folder icon and browse thru the DZP files you've downloaded and that's it! You're good to go!

Have fun using the Web Cam!

How to resize a partition in Windows Vista

What's up? While I was having a long hiatus (again!?) in blogging... I'm currently addicted to photography as of the moment so I'll be leaving a digital print here first by finding a digged partitioning tip in Vista. Apparently, Vista does not support Partition Magic so I'll try this link out later at my cousin's Compaq laptop.

Here is the link: How to resize a partition in Windows Vista

Have fun and enjoy the holiday vacation everyone!
