Linux

Appending MOV files efficiently can be a challenge. The only "safe" and easy way without destroying the video or the sound is done by using Avidemux which is a free video editing tool for Linux.

Here is my modified image-convert bash script used for the appending all .MOV files in a folder and have the full video ready for editing in the Avidemux graphical user interface (GUI).

It can be a challenge to mount your Android phone (MTP device) in Linux if you have some strange files from your old Iphone. I needed to do it the hard way.

You need to install mtpfs and use this command: sudo mtpfs -o allow_other /media/android-device

Reference.

OR: sudo jmtpfs -o allow_other ~/mnt
 

Holy molly. I thought Garmin would provide a fancy and "updatede" procedure for uploading and/or extracting data from the fancy Garmin 910XT... but no. You need to search for a while before you find the gold. First I thought you could find a garmin connect tool or plugin for Firefox, but that failed completely. Then I narrowed down my search to "forerunner 910xt linux" (without the quotation marks in google). I found some sites that suggested to download a lot of python stuff and get things directly from Git.
