dragging the seekbar back and forth should not lock up the computer.Locking up the computer shouldn't happen, but you will have to accept a short amount of lag. When seeking to an arbitrary timepoint, the player will have to find the nearest keyframe, and then decode frames until it hits the exact timepoint you're asking for.-superboyac (September 15, 2012, 07:30 PM)
The "black on black" was a joke. The point being I can't read it. So I can't tell you the colors. I can only see text if I highlight by dragging the mouse.D'oh. Guess I'm riding the slow bus-MilesAhead (September 14, 2012, 02:07 PM)
I don't see the point of getting the same information over and again.As tomos says, the important thing is that the analytics is bugged - but it's interesting seeing what kind of stuff is included on various pages. I've turned off the pop-up bubble, though, after getting an idea what kind of tracking is used on the sites I visit frequently - can always click the friendly little ghost to get the list if I feel like it-MilesAhead (September 14, 2012, 02:07 PM)
It was crash prone when I tried it maybe a year ago. It's crash prone now. It's gone from my machine.Too bad - glad it's stable here-MilesAhead (September 14, 2012, 02:07 PM)
Well, do the colors in the snapshot I posted look black-on-black to you? Just interested in whether it's your CRT or something weird with your installI don't think it's just me. A lot of sites use color combinations that put the whammy on CRT users. That's why Zap Colors bookmarklet was written. In any case it's academic now. The thing is too crash prone to leave active. I'm sure it must slow things down analyzing invisible pixels.If you have flat screen I guess there's contrast on those funky color combinations. On CRT it's black on black crime.Humm, CRTs tend(ed?) to have better color range and contrast than flat panels (but yes, my monitors are flat) - you'd have to be using a pretty poor CRT for the ghostery bubble to come up as black-on black. Perhaps the transparency somehow messes up on your system? Here's how it looks on my system, with the hex color code for the background added to the snapshot:-MilesAhead (September 08, 2012, 01:58 PM)

O_o... if directory contains dozen of executables XY freezes (I have antivirus exclusions for it already)...If XY is not super-fast something is wrong. Maybe you forgot MSE?

- I'm seeing it now and then here at DoCo - mostly at the green reply-quote boxes. At other sites, it can be stuff like links. Doesn't always happen, but not sure entirely what causes it.

Note: This one has GOT to be a complete put-on. At least I hope it is.Seems fairly elaborate for a troll post - but I guess it's a modest time investment compared to the expected hilarity...

The average person wiil be content with a locked-down appliance as long as they can: surf the web, access their social sites, send and receive text messages and email, share photos, do a little shopping, play a game, watch a movie, listen to music, read a book, and generally be a consumer.The ever-useful quote strikes again: "I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit - it's the only way to be sure".-40hz (September 09, 2012, 09:27 PM)
My archiving "strategy" requires separate checksum files for each top level folder though, so when creating the files in the first place it's easier to just run up a separate instance per folderHm, seems like a bad idea to run multiple instances at one time, at least for long-running jobs. You'll see much decreased throughput (way worse than linear degradation), and all the back-and-forth action is going to be stressful on your harddrive heads.-stefanobrunesci (September 10, 2012, 05:00 AM)
About the only FF extension I'd absolutely call necessary is NoScript - although Ghostery is getting close to what I'd consider a second 'must have.'I think I'd put AdBlock+ above NoScript - it gets rid of the most nasty (sources of) JavaScript, and ads as well. Security-wise, NS does do a bit more good, though.-40hz (September 08, 2012, 09:21 AM)

Hmmm...I did some thinking about this and made a small change in the code. Please redownload the zip and let me know if v1.1.3.2 makes any difference in your tests. Thank you.Any hints as to what the issue is (or what you thought it is)? Sounds interesting-skwire (September 07, 2012, 03:03 PM)
