I'm at the limit of my understanding but...

@Raziel

Link library to Amiga shared library is not a compilation issue, more like a "translation" job for which there is unlikely to be a software solution. The assumptions required of each don't seem to match.

Even the header files look quite different, at least to me. One factor maybe that the commonly used variety is intended to work both within an executable file and loaded separately. This is rather on the OS level (AmigaOS 4: a mention of "shared object" in elf.library). Before the program runs one line. Amiga libraries are "opened" by the program and the OS only complies.

Does PCTCrossMount work for you? The documentation for it is terse, for better or worse.

In the CrossDOS mountlist, are you specifying the disk (lowcyl/highcyl) or the partition? If the intention is for CrossDOS to read the Master Boot Record, then LowCyl should point to that.

What does this mean:
"[mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 0x5586b4c0]Protocol name not provided, cannot determine if input is local or a network protocol, buffers and access patterns cannot be configured optimally without knowing the protocol"

I don't know whether the default buffer without -cache would be fine for SSL with "optimal pattern". Hopefully this SSL madness will end in the name of saving energy.

Putting " quotation marks around the resource, like "https:
did not make a difference.

I noticed a news site recently changed their server so that images are encrypted, ie. plain http doesn't work. :/

I thought Odyssey is rather onerous on Twitch, since without Javascript the site throws blank pages at you.

That is the case for me as well, 160p is the limit, because ffplay doesn't use video overlaying like mplayer does. I do believe ffplay can't just be combined with a mplayer video output driver (at compile time), but somebody else might confirm.

edit: YouTube streaming (at least for uploaded videos) works well in 360p (mp4 not webm) in mplayer with a couple of megabytes of cache, for comparison.

I notice Freedroid (the RPG) is at 1.0 rc2 now (spring), time to look at updating?

Did a single file fetch with the delay, and wget didn't abandon then try again, so I'm guessing that (^) did it.

I did some tests, lastly with wget.

Note the 5 second limit.

It's completely normal to only have 720p available. I don't know how that works exactly, but established channels have the alternatives up.

@saimo Candor. And heart. Tweeted about the game (yes, to a few people).

No, I'm just showing off the quirks and features of the system.

So there's an undocumented feature of the "4.1" delete command (version 53.2). Suppose you have a directory soft_demonstration , that has one file in it. If you give delete the path of this file (relative or absolute) and any number of names that are not found, there will be a message about each:



That's expected, right? But if something like this occurs, the silence is surprising:



So in other words, if you use the "all" modifier, the output resembles the delete of old (version 37.8). That one only notifies if there was nothing to delete. AmigaOS 4.0 equivalent is different, it mentions not found things by name unless you have "all" in. Then the message is a generic "object not found".

The above example could be flat, referencing just a file without any directory, "all" is the deciding thing.

@pjs As Mac emulation is not so much about hardware mimicry, the JIT core should work only better there. But that's about all I can say about it.

@K-L

I prefer Rexx for this, because each structure potentially works for a couple of months only.

And, as I understand it, AmiSSL would make it possible for a pretty old application to still use secure connections, if AmiSSL updates were done transparently.

@Raziel

Common problem with both systems is that a library check fails. I must have tried to force a configure script to accept one, but do not remember success and would not try it again. But for cmake it's pretty simple, even if the -i(nteractive) doesn't quite do it.

I probably have nightmares about editing configure scripts. Cmake is better, but not by much.

@Nuder_Try

I've noticed this too, albeit I download so little that I am not sure if it's mostly failing or mostly working.

Can this video player tell the screenblanker to keep out?
