Is there any way to configure the QR code scan & store it's data in alfresco repository - alfresco

Is alfresco content service provides support to scan the QR code in share or via any third-party tool support for it?
If yes then please share some steps to achieve it.
Thanks in advance.

QR code scanning is not supported out-of-the-box. If you are trying to scan QR codes on documents you should look at scanning software that supports QA code scanning. Most modern scanning software will be able to save documents to Alfresco, either via WebDAV or CMIS.

From where I can download Adobe AEM Quickstart jar file to start practicing on it?

I am a developer. I want to learn Adobe Experience Manager. That's why I need to setup it locally to start learning. But I can't because I have not found any link to download AEM quickstart jar file. Can anyone help me on this?
You can't download AEM like you can download WordPress or Drupal. You can try contacting Adobe on the Marketing Cloud website although I don't know what their response will be. If you attend an Adobe Training Services class for AEM you will walk away with an AEM jar and a developer's license.
In the meantime, AEM is based off a lot of open source technology. You can download and learn Apache Sling, Apache Jackrabbit and Apache Felix.
You will need to get with an Adobe sales person to get a trial/demo version of Adobe Experience Manager. Use phone number on the bottom of the AEM page on the Adobe site: http://www.adobe.com/products/request-consultation/marketing-cloud.html?s_osc=70114000002JNwKAAW&s_iid=70114000002JHs3AAG
Please have a look at same kind of Questions on Adobe AEM Forums:

I hope this will help you.

If you're working for an organisation that has AEM licenses available (a client or a partner of Adobe's), you can find the quickstart JAR, as well as feature packs, hotfixes and service packs on the Software Distribution Portal. See https://experience.adobe.com/#/downloads/content/software-distribution/en/aem.html
You'll need an Adobe login belonging to an organisation that has access to AEM, though.
One thing that may be confusing is that you won't find every individual version available as a quickstart. There's usually a reasonably recent quickstart JAR available, and service packs that need to be installed on top of it. For example, at the time of writing, I could download cq-quickstart-6.5.8.jar. If I wanted SP 11 or SP 12, I had to install aem-service-pkg-6.5.11-1.0.zip or aem-service-pkg-6.5.12.0.zip as CRX package. There's no need to install intermediate versions. You should be fine just getting the zip with the exact SP version you want to use.

Is it possible to DRM EPub files without using any 3rd party software / services?

I am looking for a way to add DRM protection to EPub files without buying Adobe software for $6500 or using any 3rd party service. We would like to set up our own DRM server.
Scenario: I upload a hello world EPub file, and the system adds DRM to it. Is it possible?
I hear many times that this is impossible, but could someone clarify why? How exactly does Adobe DRM work and why could not I build my own DRM server?
Thanks
The problem is not building a DRM server. You can do that. The problem is that no standard ereader software or hardware will be able to handle your flavor of DRM and hence users will not be able to read your books. So you will end up having to provide a complete end-to-end environment of both DRM server AND ereader software. If you are in a position to insist that users install your ereader software this may be an option.

Is there the ability to store encrypted data on a desktop app created with tideSDK?

I have searched but couldn't find anything. We need to be able to store data offline in our desktop app and we are looking for cross-platform solutions. TideSDK looks promising but I am not sure if it has this functionality.
We can certainly help there. SQLite certainly provide for encrypted data support and is completely cross-platform and supported by TideSDK. We can use an encrypted database just as easily in TideSDK and could offer support in the API for this. If this is of interest, please get in touch by filing a feature request at https://github.com/TideSDK/TideSDK/issues.
If we are talking about encryption of the sources - short term there is obfuscation of the JS sources available in 1.3.0 that is due.
We created a Titanium Desktop module to support encrypted SQLite databases last year. We could help with this and dig out the old code...

Text to Speech in ASP.NET

I would like to do some japanese text to speech on my dedicated windows 2003 x64 server with .net framework, using c#
I found something on google, but requires to install a lot of files on the server... i don't like, for stability issues: there is another option, like a linked dll or something?
You can use Microsoft Speech SDK. It's a set of COM APIs containing TTS and SR engines. I'm not sure if it contains Japanese TTS though.
What you most likely want is the Microsoft Speech Server especially if your webite is going to encounter any decent load or volume.
From the site:
"A speech platform, MSS contains all
the server components for deploying
telephony (voice-only) and multimodal
(voice/visual) applications. MSS
combines Web technologies,
speech-processing services, and
telephony capabilities into a single
system. "
There is also a dedicated Microsft Speech community which will likely help you get started in this realm. Also, I'm not sure what the latest version is...2004 R2?
This article has a decent diagram outlining the various components. Looks like a good fit for integration with an ASP Web Application.
using SAPI in an ASP.NET website, is impossible: the sound will be reproduced on the server :S
It seems that there is the need of Microsoft Speech Server
...
Or not? With asp.net is possible to run a commandline exe on the server to save an mp3, then stream that mp3, right? (how to do that? i will try to figure it)
I will go this way, i let you know the result :)
edit: this is how i solved:
How to save text-to-speech as a wav with Microsoft SAPI?
I save the generated voice in a wav file, then i embed it on the page, playing it in a flash player
COOL!!
Use Microsoft Speech Library and see this article Text to Speech with the Microsoft Speech Library and SDK version 5.1 in CodeProject. Also see Giving Computers a Voice in Coding4Fun
The System.Speech.Synthesis namespace has been part of the framework since .NET 3.0. However, it has internal dependencies on the Speech SDK COM libraries (it chooses the correct version depending on the host OS), so I would recommend prototyping the work before you jump in.
The class you should probably look at first is System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer (whitepaper and example code)
Warning: I have personally experienced issues using the speech APIs in an ASP.NET environment whereby the request that returned the audio data never returned. Despite heavy debugging I was never able to resolve the issue and the feature was dropped. I have had an unresolved support case with Microsoft for 12 months now.

Recording Audio From Web Page

I'm looking for a solution for capturing audio from a user's microphone and posting it (preferably as MP3) to a server. I need something that I can embed in a web page.
I've seen where Flash can do this, but I understand that this approach requires expensive server-side software from Adobe. I'm not aware of whether Silverlight may provide any capabilities to assist with this.
I'm curious what others have done. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
You can do it with Flash and either Red5 or haXeVideo or the server, both Open Source. Regarding offering a final MP3 to the user, you will need something else because these 2 tools only record to FLV format due to the licenses needed to encode MP3s. You can use something on the server such as FFMPEG for the transformation, but still, read the small print regarding MP3s.
Good luck
Juan
SilverLight 4 now has the ability to record audio. http://blog.ondrejsv.com/post/Audio-recorder-Silverlight-4-sample.aspx shows encoding PCM to WAV
Silverlight does not have this capability, currently (or in their upcoming 3.0 release). Flash would be the way to go.
