ArchStats: Beta testers wanted

Hi All,
Ok, I've got the initial release of 'ArchStats' complete and ready for testing. The ArchStats project was proposed here http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=1463 a few weeks back.
I'm looking for people willing to help test it out by downloading the client program and following the instructions for configuring it and running it. You will need to have the python scripting language installed on your local system for the client program.
For more information (and the client program), please visit the beta test site: http://www.coding-zone.com/archstats.phtml. All of the source code is available for review if you are concerned about privacy/security issues.
Thanks,
farphel

You found a bug. I've fixed it and put up a new 'archstats' client (v1.2) 7d4e49e40e10cfa47deaf8a39afaa63a

It never chages so I think I am DL'ing it properly. I have tried right clicking on the link and doing a save as and also opening the page and saving the page, but still same md5sum. Maybe I am just slow and did something wrong.
No, that was the correct md5, it was just the bug causing problems.
However, you pointed out that the ArchStats project page needs to list the valid 'archstats' clients and their respective md5sums so that you can compare after downloading. I've added that to the project page.
Thanks for helping me out with testing! Try downloading the updated archstats client and give it another whirl. You'll need to do the '-i' switch again to make sure it knows where to find pacman.
Cheers,

Greeting/Beta Testers Wanted

Hello, Ben here, this is my first post on this forum greetings!
I'm a master's student at a Canadian university -- and in my spare time, for about a year now, I have been developing a web-based MMO for Java.
It's been a fairly rewarding -- and difficult -- experience, I just noticed that Sun had a topic dedicated to Java game development so I thought I might see what the community is like.
I'm also currently in the process of trying to hunt down beta testers for my game, so if anyone is interested, help is greatly appreciated.

If you have specific game programming related questions you can get some help here but beyond that you might want to try somewhere else.

Beta testers wanted - Refactoring (and more) for FB4

Thanks for your replies so far. I am working on the menu
system at the moment and will post screenshots within the next few
days. I am struck by how easy to use the Flickr API is together
with FlashLite, it really is a pleasure working with it. The harder
part is scripting the application itself, not the API as I first
thought.

I used HPPlay to download a significant portion of my music to my Touchpand as well as copying a ton of pictures via USB and I can't get the Touchpad to recognize them no matter what directory they are in.

Is there another step I need to take for the Music and Photos apps to find my stuff? I have pictures from some apps (wallpapers) that show up in the pictures app, but not my own stuff. Thanks!

Hi crhudetz,
There's no other step you should need to take. The TouchPad built-in apps should auto-recognize them. However, the TouchPad does use an index for files on USB drive and if you transfered a ton of files, it can take a few minutes for the TouchPad to "catch up" and index them all. If it's been a while since you transfered, try simply restarting your TouchPad:

Tap Reset Options
Tap Restart

Organism: extensible outliner+personal organizer (needs beta testers)

Organism is basically a simple outliner structured in a very modular way: the core is written in Python 2 (but should be easily adaptable to Python 3) and provides the backend for interacting with sqlite databases, where the data is stored.
The core also provides an API that can be used by 3 kinds of addons: extensions, interfaces and plugins.
Extensions are meant to extend core functionalities, and provide their own API: they can directly query the databases.
Interfaces are the addons that let the user directly interact with core's and extensions' API: currently only a wxPython interface is implemented. Interfaces cannot directly query the databases, they must make calls to the core or the extensions.
Plugins are for interfaces what extensions are for the core: they extend interface functionalities and cannot directly query the databases.
The various addons are currently distributed with 3 components (installation packages, but I decided not to use the word "package" since it conflicts with Python packages):
* the "main" component provides the core, a copy/paste extension, the wxPython interface and some basic plugins.
* the "organizer" component provides extensions and plugins that let the user define time scheduling rules for each database entry; alarms are raised when events take place, and they can be snoozed or dismissed, like the average calendar application.
* the "development" component provides some tools for developers and beta testers (currently only "print database tables" and "populate database")
Organism and its addons are released under GPLv3.
AUR PACKAGES
* organism: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=54620
* organism-organizer: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=54622
* organism-development: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=54621
SCREENSHOTS
* http://www.dariogiovannetti.net/files/organism01.png
* http://www.dariogiovannetti.net/files/organism02.png
CURRENT KNOWN LIMITATIONS
* At the current state, plugins can add their own items to the interface's main menu, but by default they just append them at the bottom of the main entries, so the user needs to customize them in Organism's configuration file, which is located in ~/.config/organism/organism.conf. The location of the configuration file can be changed with the --config flag, all the available options are shown with the --help flag.
* Once you create a database, the current addon configuration is stored in it, so you won't be able to open it with a different combination of addons: this is done to prevent data corruption, since an extension may add some particular data that needs updating, and if the database is opened without that extension it may get corrupted. Of course The next release of Organism will give the ability to "update" the databases to support the new versions of the addons.
* At the moment only 3 schedule rules are implemented, but they are fairly easy to write and can be requested specifically.
* This post is currently by far the best piece of documentation about Organism (except the source itself), I'll try to catch up on that too ^^
* The next goal is releasing a stable 1.0.0 version, which means that only the most essential features are implemented, there's much room for improvement!
DEPENDENCIES
Beside wxpython, needed until the current interface is the only one available, Organism depends on 4 external Python modules I wrote during its development:
* python2-plural: a little module that returns the needed form of a string depending on one or more input variables.
* python2-loggingext: an extension to the logging module that lets the logger use different formatters for different log message levels.
* python2-texthistory: a simple undo/redo engine for plain text and wx.TextCtrl.
* python2-configfile: a class useful for dynamically parsing and writing configuration files, with support for subsections and more.
python2-texthistory and python2-configfile may even be tested separately, if somebody is interested in using them for other projects.
BETA TESTING
Organism is in pre-beta, which means that I'm still accepting minor feature requests before going beta and starting the real testing campaign: that's why I'm looking for people interested in the project who want to help testing it.
Beta testers should concentrate in particular in these fields:
* defects in reading/writing the configuration file
* defects in the database's undo/redo engine
* defects in item text editor's undo/redo engine
* defects in the organizer's management of timed item occurrences
Of course bugs can happen everywhere, they can be reported at https://github.com/kynikos/organism/issues and https://github.com/kynikos/organism-organizer/issues
Beta testers should use organism either by setting the logging level to "33" in the configuration file or by launching it with "--loglevel 33".
ARTISTIC CONTRIBUTIONS
I'm also looking for somebody intersted in an artistic collaboration for creating an original icon, since currently Organism is using GTK theme icons only.
Thanks for reading

I need a few beta testers

I have the title creation macro working.
This macro is run from a Microsoft Word document. I wrote it on Office 2003 but it should work on newer versions. It runs on 2003 because I have the compatibility pack.
Here is how it works:
You create a title in Premiere Pro using the font and positioning that you want to use. Get it just right. (One line of text only though.)
Change the text of the title to "xyz" without the quotes.
Export the title as a title. (*.prtl)
Open the MS Word document and either type in the text you want to use or paste it in from another document.
I limited it to 9999 titles but I doubt that will inconvenience anyone. (I actually only tested it to 9990). That many titles takes quite a while though. (55 minutes) Heck, it takes quite a while to import that many into Premiere Pro for that matter.
Once you have the text in place (make sure that there isn't a blank line at the end or you will get an empty title), you just double-click where it says to double-click.
It will ask you which is the master file you want to make copies of. Then it will ask you for the file name and location you want to use for the copies. It will append the numbers 0001 through 9999
Then it proceeds to make your copies using each line of text for a new title.
When it is finished, just import the titles into Premiere Pro and drag drop to the timeline. Or automate to sequence.
Deceptively simple. I didn't write much of the code. I understand it, but only after studying what was kindly given to me by a master VBA guy on a VBA forum. Kind of like if you were a newbie around here and Jim Simon or Ann Bens offered to edit your video for you after you asked a question. It was phenomenal. Although it might have been more like what I did for the people I created intros for. Not sure just how much effort he had to put into it. But it sure works great and the code is simple, and clean.
OK? So now I need a few beta testers before I just throw it out there to the world of Premiere Pro users. If you would like to take it for a test drive, let me know in this thread.
If you are concerned about letting a macro run on your system, prevent it from running and just read the text from the Visual Basic Editor yourself. You will see that it doesn't do anything sinister.Then allow it the next time.
Just do me one favor. If you change the code to make it better, please share it with everyone.
Thanks,
Steven Gotz

Really? 272 views of this post at the time I write this and nobody wants to create multiple titles based on a single title using text from an external program?
Wow!
We see the question all the time, and yet nobody wants to try it out?
OK. I will just wait until somebody asks again and offer the untested solution. Seriously, this is not the response I expected. Not after years of seeing requests for this feature.

Dynamic AE Renders with Google Spreadsheets Docs - Seeking Beta Testers

Happy New Year Everyone!
I'm positing this message in an effort to recruit beta testers for a new AE plugin that allows users to convert text layers, footage layers, and solid layers into dynamic audio / visual elements driven by external data at render time.
With this plugin users connect comp layers to data within a Google Spreadsheet document (or tab-delimited file) that is “fed” into that layer during a batch render. The plugin automatically positions, scales, and fits dynamic sized text strings and images. If you produce any kind of video template, you can benefit from it because swapping out sources, texts, etc. is extremely easy simply by modifying spreadsheet data. Essentially, you can output batches of unique renders based on the same AEP file using this plugin: think lower-thirds, bumpers, slideshows, presentations, etc.
I made a screencast showing how the plugin works:
I would be grateful to any of you who would like participate in the product's beta phase, and will offer participants free upgrades after it is released to the general public.
If you have any interest, please reply here, or send me a private message via the forum.
Thank you for your time and consideration!
Best,
Arie

Just wanted to update this thread to point folks to the release version of this plugin. You can now enjoy its benefits by downloading it at aescripts.com.
Templater now has extensive written documentation to familiarize yourself with general concepts for working with it and how-to instructions for accomplishing specific tasks.
Thanks again for all you beta testers out there! Your time, suggestions, and help have been invaluable.
Best,
Arie

APEX Team & Beta Testers - Thankyou!!

Just wanted to say a BIG thank you to everyone involved in getting APEX 3.1 tested and released.
The interactive reports functionality is simply mind-blowing.
Outstanding work everyone.
Many thanks.
Simon

Hey Jon,
Just heard about this software so I decided to search the Premiere Pro forums and see if anyone had been talking about it.
I'm a Premiere Pro user, but on PC. If and when you decide you want to take a swing at the PC side of things with Premiere Pro, feel free to let me know and I'd be happy to work on the beta. There are plenty of other talented and very technical editors on this board that only swim in the PC pond so you may have quite a pool of qualified beta testers to choose from at that time.

Feedback for beta testers and developers of the MMS code.

Where can I get in touch with developers and/or beta testers of the MMS update that is coming out? I have some feedback and issues to share with them that needs to be addressed before the MMS rolls out, and would like to share with them so they can have the issue looked at or addressed...any clues who I can contact?
I guess its the carrier who needs to fix the issue I'm talking about...which can also be found here:
http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2009/07/iphone-30-software-sending-group-sms-messages- as-mms/
Message was edited by: Chris McCord

I think it does have to do with the ATT ippc file, which is the carrier code. Its how ATT decided to handle group messages? Doesn't make sense though because before I put the 5.1 ATT_US.ippc file on my phone, which is the file that turns on MMS for AT&T, it handled SMS group texts normally. It still can send SMS group text normal as well, if I turn off MMS in my settings. But this doesn't make sense logically.
SO I'm wondering who really needs to know about this, ATT or Apple?

Obmenugen next version (v0.5): beta-testers needed

Hi everybody:
It's been a long time since last obmenugen release. Sorry about that, I've been very busy.
I need everybody out there using (or not) obmenugen to help me making the next version the best ever. I have ported to D 1.0 (from 2.0), thus it's posible to build it easily using dmd and libphobos from community. No more need to distribute it as a binary. I've also fixed some bugs reported in lauchpad project's bugtracker.
I consider this the most important release of obmenugen from 0.1, so, help me to test it before the final release.

Yes, indeed, it's the same app, I'm the developer, but this thread is about a complete diferent topic: the new version, which cames with a lot of changes, not much at the interface level, but in the inside. Anyway, at the interface level, there are changes too.
I'm not sure, probable you are the one to make me clear, but I think both threads are related, no more than that, 'cause is the same application, but in this thread I'm asking for beta-testers for this new version, for the matter that it cames with so much changes, the other thread is where I do inform the Arch community about releases.
If you think this thread is not needed or redundant, just tell me, and I will move my posts to the other, then you could remove this.
Thanks a lot
