Hi, recently I been ask if the process of 3 D top/bottom as the same to side by side my answer was yes but  I thought make a post about it.
I've grabbed  a trailer like this, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMpHgdG4VC8&feature=related
and see who that end.
 the system is Ubuntu 12.04LTS and Avidemux 2.5.4 64bit,
after imported the video file to Avidemux, 2 motion pictures 
 filters under video tab, first crop
 the crop preview 
 the green area is what will be cut off
 after crop you will end up this preview
 resize filter use avisynth to bring back to the size of 1920x1080
 this trailer is 1920x1080 after crop is 1920x400
with  resize filter will ebd up in 1920x1080

 video filter tab crop and resize
 the resize (1920x1080) preview
 finally re-encode this trailer.

The best alternative to Itunes in Ubuntu

Sync Ipod Classic on Ubuntu with Banshee the best alternative for me on Ubuntu, system is Ubuntu 12.04LTS 64Bits and Banshee is 2.4 (2.4.0), before I've used GkTpod but on Ubuntu beta it stop working crash adding music or even bring settings.
         It is the best for me because of ti looks and it is easy to add and edit our files in ipod so some screen shots...
Banshee/help/about
Banshee/edit/settings
for me the most important setting i've change is stop fetch covers from the internet
the main look of Banshee, in left pane is my ipod, the music on ipod they locked and no covers, click play and you will see the cover and the locker disappear, underneath is itunes no is not is Banshee with the info you get in itunes,


drag and drop the album to your ipod to your ipod name not to music, that is all i need for sync my ipod classic on Ubuntu.
