Ok when should we do the next zoom meeting?
Shall we try one at the opposite end of the sleep schedule, 2am (central standard US time)?

Can you send me an excel file and instructions for how to repeat the problem?

I've uploaded a new alpha (v2.55); this one should also solve the excel problem but even without a rule added, based on the fact that it knows to ignore the CF_METAFILEPICT format if it finds an earlier better format (CF_ENHMETAFILE).

The solution is still basically the same, to avoid trying to grab CF_METAFILEPICT from excel, it just avoids it automatically now rather than needing a custom rule.  So it should solve the problem out of the box for everyone.

Please do let me know if you ever see that error in this new version!

Can you check the excel rule in the options, AND make sure you are running the latest CHS (2.54).

Maybe I can add some hints to those options to explain they may cause blurry/fuzzy text.

I made this 12 egg Fritata twice now.  Feels like a great recipe to have in your back pocket for a large group of guests.. You can basically throw any vegetables you have into it and it's fairly foolproof and delicious.

Well I didn't say that..

Nevertheless, I am a believer in sometimes doing things that was time, so we will continue to have the zoom meetings regularly until no one shows up.

I think we will try doing it on a regular basis, once every couple of month.  Just to get in the practice, even if only a handful of people join each time.

Assuming that this is happening even at 100% zoom, can you see if messing with these options has any effect:

I think this is SC trying to do some antialiasing.. Let's see if there is an option that will fix it.

First, can you confirm that this happens even when the zoom is at 100%?

Second, let's check if its an artifact of viewing: If you save the screenshot file and then open it in an external image viewer (just double click it in thumbnail panel to do so) -- does it still look blurry?

This channel is very charming.. Tribal people tasting and reviewing foods from other countries:

The oldest guy is funny -- he is always a bit grumpy and compares the foods negatively to some mythical food from his country, or complains that the foods are ok but are mixed or prepared wrong

It's possible that with WinPcap installed, UrlSnooper won't see NPCap, which might otherwise pretend to be WinPCap.

I did a few more tweaks to convert more page resources to https on the forum.
Again, let me know if you spot anything unusual.

UrlSnooper / Re: url snooper2

« Last post by mouser on May 02, 2020, 10:12 PM »

Actually I just saw the WinPCap page talks about Npcap, which be installed and in WinPCap compatible mode.

And the Npcap page talks about Windows 10 specific stuff it solves, and says "WinPcap isn't supported on Windows 10"  -- which would explain why URL Snooper might not work.

So maybe you feel like seeing if you can get Npcap to work with UrlSnooper?  This sounds promissing:

https://nmap.org/npcap/

Download the installer from that page and choose WinPCap compatibility mode.

I will also check it out when I get a spare minute.

Let me know what you find!
