i'm working on a FreeBSD port for picard... and I have a question about which web browser should be required... I was thinking of requiring lynx if firefox is not installed, but would it be better to require firefox but allow the user to request to not use firefox (and then require lynx)?

freebsd doesn't have an /etc/alternatives/www-browser ?
2006-04-01 09123, 2006
DraX
no..
2006-04-01 09142, 2006
DraX
and as far as i can tell python's webbrowser module doesn't use anything like that either
2006-04-01 09153, 2006

2006-04-01 09131, 2006

and it seems picard doesn't use that either
2006-04-01 09123, 2006

oh i see it's a web browser launching script, silly.
2006-04-01 09136, 2006

flamingcow: and python's webbrowser on debian doesn't even seem to use that.

ruaok there is no way we're integrating a browser into the tagger again. <--- why? if I may ask a dumb question?
2006-04-01 09135, 2006

mo: that would only be possible on windows, remember picard runs on different operating systems

inhouseuk: i expect most operating systems have some API to embed a browser.
2006-04-01 09124, 2006

possibly, but probably nothing standardised

true.

it's far easier to launch the browser as a separate process outside the application and also in that way you're not worried about the browser that is being used
2006-04-01 09135, 2006
luks
and also integrated browser always will be limited in some way
2006-04-01 09153, 2006

for example i like to have a lot of tabs open, when i'm tagging albums

currently the track title is limited to 255 characters what if i want to put in a track title, which is longer than that, what should i do?

that sounds like a pretty scary tracktitle

all you can do at the moment is put the full title in the annotation
I parsed track times to an album add, but they disappeared after completing the add.

Ahha. It's prolly because minutes and seconds are separated with a "." instead of a ":"
2006-04-01 09129, 2006

So they're properly moved into their boxes but apparently won't get added because of the wrong separator :)

yep, which is a tad annoying

I have a Disrupters video :)
2006-04-01 09106, 2006

And it's not even a VHS but a badly done divx encode
2006-04-01 09137, 2006

i've never come across any Amebix videos, but then I've never really looked
2006-04-01 09143, 2006

And I'm slowly trying to start a "punk video restoration project" which aims to digitalize all kind of classic stuff before the analog tapes destroy themselves
2006-04-01 09123, 2006

I've seen the same video on sale at a few distros, but I kind of don't feel like paying for possibly horrible quality :)
2006-04-01 09151, 2006

Especially since some jerks seem to make money out of selling "rarities" like that :/
2006-04-01 09156, 2006

have you tried contacting any ex members? most of the old punk bands i talk to go out of there way to help you get hold of stuff (without paying rip off prices)
2006-04-01 09120, 2006

Actually, no. Some time ago I found Baron (the vocalist/bassplayer) from the 'net, he's living on some island in Northern UK and making swords nowadays :)

they toured a lot with Deviated Instinct, Mid may have a contact. I'll see if I can find Mids address
2006-04-01 09152, 2006

But dunno how much of "please send me all your rare copies" emails he gets every day :)
2006-04-01 09148, 2006
Mudcrow
Mid (ex Devaited Instinct) email is bonehive at hotmail.com . dont know if thats still valid. he may have a contact for Amebix
I'll prolly try to edit a dvd out of that one too, do some minor post-processing on it or something
2006-04-01 09157, 2006
juhae
If you want a copy whenever it's done, I can send you one
2006-04-01 09124, 2006

thanks but no, I was never a big fan of Amebix's later stuff
2006-04-01 09129, 2006

sort of too heavy, and too much crap from about that time.

a lot of the crust bands alienated a lot of punks with their attitude
2006-04-01 09105, 2006
Mudcrow
lots of stupid things were said and done. I think I still have a cartoon that Steve Disrupter did for a fanzine of a crusty bathing in mud (I think it was meant to be one of Deviated Instinct), I thought it was really funny, but DI were really pissed off about it
2006-04-01 09148, 2006
juhae
And lead us to the present situation where we have simply too much of generic crust bands, all looking and sounding exactly the same, and still not being as (kind of) innovative as their 80's predecessors were

I remember a early Deviated Instinct gig, where the lead singer of one of the bands playing slagged off people wearing leather jackets, not a wise thing to do when the gig is packed with leather studded chaos punks. That ened in a massive fight
