如何安装XBMC加载项? (How Do I Install XBMC Add-Ons?)
()
Dear How-To Geek,
亲爱的How-To Geek,
I’m a recent XBMC adopter and I have all sorts of questions but the most pressing one is this: How do I install add-ons besides the default ones? I see a bunch of cool add-ons when I look in the XBMC.org listing in the add-on menu but I see more cool ones when I search the web that aren’t there. What gives?
我是最近使用XBMC的人,我有各种各样的问题,但最紧迫的问题是:除了默认问题外,我如何安装附件? 当我在附加菜单的XBMC.org列表中查看时,会看到很多很酷的加载项,但是当我搜索不存在的Web时,会看到更多很酷的加载项。 是什么赋予了?
Sincerely
真诚的

Dear Add-On Craving,
亲爱的附加渴望,
It sounds like you’ve got the routine down for installing add-ons from the official XBMC repository, what you need to do is learn how to install new repositories. Ever since the shift from XBMC 9.0 to XBMC 10.0—which occurred about a year ago—add-ons are now repository-only. You need to install them either via the official repository or by a 3rd party repository. Check out our guide to installing XBMC add-ons and pay special attention to the “Installing Add-Ons From Unofficials Repositories” section. While you’re at it, hit up the XBMC user forums for tons of leads on new and interesting add-ons!
听起来您已经习惯了从官方XBMC信息库安装插件的例程,您需要做的就是学习如何安装新的信息库。 自大约一年前从XBMC 9.0迁移到XBMC 10.0以来,附加组件现在仅用于存储库。 您需要通过官方存储库或第三方存储库进行安装。 请查看我们的XBMC加载项安装指南,并特别注意“从非官方存储库安装加载项”部分。 当您使用它时,请访问XBMC用户论坛,以获取大量新颖有趣的插件的潜在客户!
如何缩小手机的视频? (How Can I Shrink My Videos For My Phone?)
Dear How-To Geek,
亲爱的How-To Geek,
I have a bunch of videos on my computer but they’re all 720P or higher quality. I’d like to put these videos on my phone to watch on the commuter train every day, but it seems really excessive to put an HD video on small phone screen. For that matter, I’m not even sure if my smartphone would choke on the HD content. What can I do? Surely there has to be a simple way to “downscale” the video or something!
我的计算机上有一堆视频,但是它们都是720P或更高质量的。 我想将这些视频放在手机上,以便每天在通勤火车上观看,但是将高清视频放在小手机屏幕上似乎实在是太过分了。 因此,我什至不确定我的智能手机是否会阻塞高清内容。 我能做什么? 当然,必须有一种简单的方法来“缩小”视频或其他东西!
Sincerely,
真诚的

Dear Video Commuter,
亲爱的视频通勤者,
There are a variety of ways you can convert your videos to a smaller resolution. We’re fans of the open-source media app VLC. You’ll need to know the specs of your phone (i.e. the max resolution). Armed with that, you can follow along with our VLC tutorial and scale your videos to a much more manageable size.
您可以通过多种方式将视频转换为较小的分辨率。 我们是开源媒体应用VLC的粉丝。 您需要了解手机的规格(即最大分辨率)。 有了这些,您就可以跟随我们的VLC教程 ,将视频缩放到更易于管理的大小。
移动计算机时如何更换打印机? (How Can I Change Printers When I Move My Computer?)
Dear How-To Geek,
亲爱的How-To Geek,
Both my actual office and my home office are pretty much totally Wi-Fi based, including printing. It’s a huge pain to toggle settings based on location. Is there anyway to have my computer just figure this crap out on its own? It’s 2012!
我的实际办公室和家庭办公室几乎都完全基于Wi-Fi,包括打印。 根据位置切换设置非常麻烦。 无论如何,有没有让我的计算机自己解决这个问题? 是2012年!
Oh, I guess you need to know about my actual computer, eh? I’m running Windows 7 Professional on a fair mundane Dell laptop.
哦,我想您需要了解我的实际计算机,是吗? 我在相当普通的戴尔笔记本电脑上运行Windows 7 Professional。
Sincerely,

Dear Check Twice,
亲爱的支票两次,
You’re in luck; editions of Windows 7 above Windows 7 Home support switching of the default printer based on the Wi-Fi node the computer is connected to.
