RISC-OS-Community/WakeOnLAN

Make a short Youtube video about how to use WakeOnLAN for both Desktop and CLI

Background

In order to help users to have an easy life with !WakeOnLAN tool for RISC OS, make a short Youtube video explaining how to use it in both cases:

  1. From the Desktop
  2. As a command, for example executed by !Alarm or some other form of automation

The video has to be done on a RISC OS powered device (for example Raspberry Pi, RComp Mini.M, Castle Iyonix PC, Pandaboard etc.)

You can publish the video on your own Channel, so this is also an opportunity to drive views to your YouTube channel.

When you're done ask for a PR, where we'll add your Youtube video link to the README.md in the documentation to this repository.

Do not commit directly to the main branch, instead create your own branch or fork, make the video, add the link to the README.md and submit it as a PR in develop branch.

Definition of Done

  • Video is published and reachable
  • Video show how to use the software and it's clear and either mute or with a nice commentary
  • Video is titled: How to use RISC OS !WakeOnLAN
  • Video is short and show ALL the options used on both the WIMP and the CLI

Am happy to work on this.

Is there an already existing RISC OS Community YouTube channel where the resulting video is to be published? As I'm not worried about driving traffic away from RISC OS Community.

One point - I noticed that the 'Help' option doesn't work right now due to !Help not being located in the correct place - right now it's in doc.!Help whereas it should be in !WakeOnLAN.!Help - I'll spin this out into a separate issue.

@pzaino a first draft video is available at https://youtu.be/Sx3bzEuTS2s

Please note: still to add is a voiceover and possibly some intro/outro music. But I first wanted to get some initial feedback to determine if this is along the lines of what's expected before working further.

Thanks.

@mattharris ,
WOW I have no words, this is absolutely OUTSTANDING! Really really really a fantastic job!

I am totally impressed, such a professional quality, all the info, I love the way you decided to show both CLI and Wimp app. Really well done! :)

@skswales , @skymandr , @InteractiveYelp, @P0larity what you guys think about @mattharris instructional video for WakeOnLan? I think it's awesome :)

@pzaino A new version is available at https://youtu.be/wXA4Jsu6NZ0

This one includes a voiceover and subtitles in English.

Otherwise it is identical.

Let me know which of the two you prefer and I will then publish it to the channel and update the README.md accordingly.

@mattharris,
excellent work! :)
