I’ve stolen this code from http://code.activestate.com/recipes/457406/ which in turn was stolen / ported from http://inlet-media.de/flvtool2 , made some small fixes in bugs related to the date conversion function, object and array unmarshaling, file name hardcoded, etc… If you want to learn more about the FLV format and metatags read Acrobat’s Video File Format Specification Version 10

Upload Progress with mod_python
Now that Gmail has added a progress bar for attachment uploads, everybody wants to do the same including myself 
So, with the same method that everybody uses consisting in an upload form with a hidden <iframe> as target, and then a periodic Ajax request to update the progress, I made a simple implementation using mod_python on the server side… This is a veeery simple example, like everything that you do with Python.
Additionally I’ve added an upload size limit control based in examples that can be found in the mod_python forum site. Use the source Luke!
See LIVE DEMO!
If you have a Mac OS X Leopard on an Intel platform, and you are interested in installing mod_python using your default apache setup and the python that comes with the Framework, even more if you want to give PyCAPTCHA a try together with mod_python, then check out this post! I’m covering also the installation of required libraries for PyCAPTCHA under Leopard (FreeType2, libjpeg, PIL)
Today I’m introducing another utility script written in python that uses wxPython to edit your scanned images (JPEG, BMP, TIFF, etc.) obtain sub-images, rotate and save them.
A python script to convert Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 solution files (*.sln) and the associated project files (*.vcproj) into a set of SCons files (SConstruct and SConscript).
