Cryptx 6

Finally, the most awaited Adobe AIR based development project is about to get released. The latest version of CryptX will be 6 superceding the HTA and C++ based 5.1 Beta. Yes, the last version never broke from the Beta label. It was made as a Proof Of Concept that such an encryption decryption utility could be made, after encryption algorithm security problems from CryptX 4.

CryptX 6 like its predecessor will be using 128 bit AES encryption. Check out some of the features of CryptX 6.

• 128-bit AES Encryption.
• Password used for encryption is not stored in the encrypted file.
• Completely written using Action Script 3 and uses as3crypto library.
• Intuitive UI.
• Desktop integration with Encrypted file.
• Using Green Threads for multitasking support in AS3.
• Improved performance from previous versions.
• Logging Platform support.

Please note that the CryptX 6 does not support file formats from previous versions.

Add separate audio to a video file using FFMPEG

There was a need to put the "Wavin Flag" song with a video of football tricks and stuff. So i turned to FFMPEG. After tinkering with the command line parameters as much as i could do, I found the easy way is to specify the audio file and the video file as inputs and FFMPEG gave me a single video file with the desired result.

The syntax woule be

ffmpeg -i input_audio.mp3 -i input_video combined_video

Take a look at the example command.

ffmpeg.exe -i audiofile.mp3 -i source_video.mpg -b 800k output.mpg

I used -b 800k, to make sure that the output video would be with 800kbps bit rate.
