+ <p>Today I was happy to learn that the documentary
+<a href="https://citizenfourfilm.com/">Citizenfour</a> by
+<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laura_Poitras">Laura Poitras</a>
+finally will show up in Norway. According to the magazine
+<a href="http://montages.no/">Montages</a>, a deal has finally been
+made for
+<a href="http://montages.no/nyheter/snowden-dokumentaren-citizenfour-far-norsk-kinodistribusjon/">Cinema
+distribution in Norway</a> and the movie will have its premiere soon.
+This is great news. As part of my involvement with
+<a href="http://www.nuug.no/">the Norwegian Unix User Group</a>, me and
+a friend have
+<a href="http://www.nuug.no/news/Dokumentar_om_Snowdenbekreftelsene_til_Norge_.shtml">tried
+to get the movie to Norway</a> ourselves, but obviously
+<a href="http://www.nuug.no/news/Dokumentar_om_Snowdenbekreftelsene_endelig_til_Norge_.shtml">we
+were too late</a> and Tor Fosse beat us to it. I am happy he did, as
+the movie will make its way to the public and we do not have to make
+it happen ourselves.
+<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiGwAvd5mvM">The trailer</a>
+can be seen on youtube, if you are curious what kind of film this
+is.</p>
+
+<p>The whistle blower Edward Snowden really deserve political asylum
+here in Norway, but I am afraid he would not be safe.</p>

+ <p>The Norwegian nationwide open channel
+<a href="http://www.frikanalen.no/">Frikanalen</a> is still going
+strong. It allow everyone to send the video they want on national
+television. It is a TV station administrated completely using a web
+browser, running only <ahref="https://github.com/Frikanalen">Free
+Software</a>, providing <ahref="http://beta.frikanalen.tv/api">a REST
+api</a> for administrators and members, and with distribution on the
+national DVB-T distribution network RiksTV. But only between 12:00
+and 17:30 Norwegian time. This has finally changed, after many years
+with limited distribution. A few weeks ago, we set up a Ogg Theora
+stream via icecast to allow everyone with Internet access to check out
+the channel the rest of the day. This is presented on
+<a href="http://www.frikanalen.tv/se">the Frikanalen web site now</a>. And
+since a few days ago, the channel is also available
+via <a href="https://www.uninett.no/iptv-tilgang">multicast on
+UNINETT</a>, available for those using IPTV TVs and set-top boxes in
+the Norwegian National Research and Education network.</p>
+
+<p>If you want to see what is on the channel, point your media player
+to one of these sources. The first should work with most players and
+browsers, while as far as I know, the multicast UDP stream only work
+with VLC.</p>

+ <li>udp://@224.17.43.129:1234</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>The Ogg Theora / icecast stream is not working well, as the video
+and audio is slightly out of sync. We have not been able to figure
+out how to fix it. It is generated by recoding a internal MPEG
+transport stream with MPEG4 coded video (ie H.264) to Ogg Theora /
+Vorbis, and the result is less then stellar. If you have ideas how to
+fix it, please let us know on frikanalen (at) nuug.no. We currently
+use this with ffmpeg2theora 0.29:</p>
+
+<blockquote><pre>
+./ffmpeg2theora.linux <OBE_gemini_URL.ts> -F 25 -x 720 -y 405 \
+ --deinterlace --inputfps 25 -c 1 -H 48000 --keyint 8 --buf-delay 100 \
+ --nosync -V 700 -o - | oggfwd video.nuug.no 8000 <pw> /frikanalen.ogv
+</pre></blockquote>
+
+<p>If you get the multicast UDP stream working, please let me know, as
+I am curious how far the multicast stream reach. It do not make it to
+my home network, nor any other commercially available network in
+Norway that I am aware of.</p>

process to add videos and with the scheduling, so your contribution is
most welcome. Perhaps you want to set up your own TV station?</p>
+<p>Update 2015-02-25: Got a tip from Uninett about their
+<a href="https://scm.uninett.no/maalepaaler/qstream/">qstream
+monitoring system</a>, which gather connection time, jitter, packet
+loss and burst bandwidth usage. It look useful to check if UDP
+streams are working as they should.</p>
