Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA: Desktop progress meter
« Last post by skwire on January 10, 2013, 11:11 AM »
1. When started, it always opens the configuration interface -- even though it was minimized to the Tray when last closed. I think this is unnecessary. I prefer to have it open in its last state. (BTW, Show Meter Bars is set as the double-click-on-icon action.)

I can add a "Start minimized" option.

2. As already noted, it sometimes zeros all Total fields. Sometimes it also zeros all Number fields. It may delete some of the fields and not others. But sometimes it leaves all fields intact. This happens after exiting the program and restarting it. I haven't found any pattern for when it zeros the fields or not.

I never saw this under XPSP3/32 but I have now since I upgraded to W7/64 recently.  What OS are you running?

BTW, apologies for the delay in getting this updated; my regular job has been rather busy lately.   :-[

The data is saved in the meters.xml file.  I'm working on a fix for the zero totals issue as well.

You did a fine job there, nice and clean :up:

Good job on cabling - you pleased with it now it is done?

Thanks.  The cable management grommets in the case made it really easy to achieve a clean look.  And, yes, I'm pleased with it.  Let's just say that when I am king, SSDs for all my people.  Man, what a difference that device makes.

Mouser asked me post a few pics of the final build so here you go:

Apologies for the photo quality as they were taken with my phone.  Also, that Fractal R4 case was simply superb to work with.  Beautiful, understated case.

Hi, Anthony, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.   :Thmbsup:  As to your request, unfortunately, I recall I had a reason (or a limitation) for doing it the current way but I don't remember why.  Hahaha...terrible, eh?  :-[

« Last post by skwire on January 04, 2013, 12:37 AM »
My typical NANY method, and mouser can confirm this, is that I don't do pledges; I just do releases.  I had less time this year than in years past so I was only able to release one app (and a simple one at that).

Unfortunately, no, there isn't any command-line support for this application.   :(

Hi lenn-art, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.  I recall a thread that requested exactly this sort of application.  Let me see if I can find it.

Thanks for all the suggestions, folks.  I ended going with my original list except with 16GB of RAM instead of 8GB.

Any reason you are going Intel over AMD?

I'm no AMD hater; my past four desktops have been AMD-based.  However, the research that I've done over the past several days led me to believe that the Intel options were stronger than the AMD options at this point in time.

Living Room / New Desktop parts list (RFC)
« Last post by skwire on December 22, 2012, 08:27 PM »
I'm building a new desktop with a budget of around $1100.  My current dekstop is going on six years old (single-core Athlon) and I've been out of the hardware loop for at least that long.   :D  So, with that in mind, I'd like any comments and/or suggestions on the following parts list I've assembled:

Case ($79.99):
Fractal Design Define R4 Black Pearl w/ USB 3.0 ATX Mid Tower Silent PC Computer Case

Power Supply ($89.99):
CORSAIR Enthusiast Series TX650 V2 650W ATX12V v2.31/ EPS12V v2.92 80 PLUS BRONZE Certified Active PFC High Performance Power Supply

Motherboard ($139.99):
GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD3H LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

CPU ($219.99):
Intel Core i5-3570K Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4000 BX80637I53570K

RAM ($84.99):
G.SKILL Sniper Gaming Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-1600C9D-16GSR

Video Card ($299.99):
GIGABYTE GV-N66TOC-2GD GeForce GTX 660 Ti 2GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

SSD ($199.99):
Intel 330 Series SSDSC2CT240A3K5 2.5" 240GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)

CPU Cooler ($29.99):
COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 EVO RR-212E-20PK-R2 Continuous Direct Contact 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler

I have plenty of spare hard drives laying around so I've no need to buy one for this build.  Also, no need for monitors, mouse, keyboard, or speakers as I'll be using my current ones for this.  Finally, I have legitimate Windows licenses from a TechNet subscription so no need for that extra cost.

Thank you for any and all command and/or suggestions.  I really appreciate them.

Frameless does not display CMYK, YCCK JPEGs correctly.
One is attached to this bug report, https://bugzilla.moz...how_bug.cgi?id=44781.

From my tests, this appears to be a limitation of the standard Windows picture control that AHK implements.  In other words, I don't think there is anything I can do about it.  Apologies.

As it is I'm running on 1 hour in playlist load time & I'm nowhere near completed.
So far its cataloged ~23000 files

Hmmm...that's odd.  I just ran a test and was able to load 23,000 files in ~11 minutes.   :huh:  At any rate, I never designed Trout to run with that many items in its list.

Thanks for the heads up, mouser.
