# Introduction |
|
|
|
I asked the community recently if they would like to have a video |
|
tutorial about installing OpenBSD, many people answered yes so here it |
|
is! I hope you will enjoy it, I'm quite happy of the result while I'm |
|
not myself fan of watching video tutorials. |

# The links |
|
|
|
The videos are published on Peertube, but you are free to reupload them |
|
on YouTube if you want to, the licence permits it. I won't publish on |
|
YouTube because I don't want to feed this platform. |
|
|
|
The English video has Italian subtitles that have been provided by a |
|
fellow reader. |

# Why not having used a VM? |
|
|
|
I really wanted to use a real hardware (an IBM ThinkPad T400 with an |
|
old Core 2 Duo) instead of a virtual machine because it feels a lot |
|
more real (WoW :D) and has real world quirks like firmwares that would |
|
be avoided in a VM. |

If you prefer YouTube, someone republished the video on this Google |

# Making-off |
|
|
|
I rarely make videos, and it was a first time for me to create this, so |
|
I wanted to share about how I made it because it was very amateurish |
|
and weird :D |
|
|
|
My first setup trying to record the screen of a laptop using another |
|
laptop and an USB camera, it didn't work well |

|
The first part on Linux was recorded locally with ffmpeg from the T400 |
|
computer, the rest is recorded with the GoPro camera, I applied a few |
|
filters with the shotcut video editing software to flatten the picture |
|
(the lens is crazy on the GoPro). |
|
|
|
I spent like 8 hours to create the video, most of the time was editing, |
|
blurring my Wi-Fi password, adjusting the speed of the sequences, and |
|
once the video was done I recorded my audio comment (using a USB Rode |
|
microphone) while watching it, I did it in English and in French, and |
|
used shotcut again to sync the audio with the video and merge them |
|
together. |
