dr|z3d I think zzz was proposing something like that, uop23ip

dr|z3d you want an option (button) to open the data directory with your file manager, right?

uop23ip dr|z3d, nope :)

uop23ip if i play this 1 torrent mp4 with a app player, it often shutdowns the video window and i have to open again. I don't have that in the browser and caneasily just click refresh in the browser to update the file

uop23ip in the detail of i2psnark there is the file location. i copy this into my browser and it opens up the video in the browser

dr|z3d so what are you suggesting?

uop23ip data location clickable:file......

not_bob misuse?

uop23ip false use.sorry. pdf are not partally readable as example i mean.

not_bob Ahh, yes.

dr|z3d fringe use case, why not just wait until the video's fully downloaded?

uop23ip just try to download a 1 mp4 only. start it, use sequencial downloading, wait till file is written, go to details of torrent, data location pathtofile, copy this into new tab in browser.

uop23ip dr|z3d, to have it more like a tube

not_bob I could see how that would work, yeah.

dr|z3d I read a great argument against sequential downloading, something along the lines of "it selfishly screws over other downloaders" in brief.

uop23ip dr|z3d, probably, but you can play the file with less than 1% downloaded if mp4

dr|z3d yeah, not a huge fan of "I want it now, fuck everyone else" mentality.

uop23ip it faster to get it to play and i think the header has also something to do with it

not_bob You can play up to the part that's not downloaded anyway...

not_bob The only use case I can see for this sort of thing is to preview things before they finish.

not_bob IE, to see if a film is a crappy cam copy, or decent quality.

not_bob Yeah, with an mp4 you need the header to play it.

uop23ip and if it seeded by some peers, there is no big problem. In release it is something different

not_bob Grabbing the file in order removes the randomness that helps other users get parts of the file quikcly.

uop23ip if it is fast enough, balanced with the av bitrate, than you can watch while downloading, with some refreshes

not_bob I've rarely seen any torrents go anywhere near fast enough for that.

uop23ip more a tube, as i don't think somehow telling i2psnark just to download the block where the pointer of the video is placed is possible

uop23ip not_bob, for the future :)

not_bob I'd suggest taking to idk or zzz about it.

not_bob I'm sure they will read this here.

not_bob But, best to just let them download naturally.

uop23ip not_bob, think of smaller file like video tutorials 25-100mb as another example

uop23ip quite fast to jump in the files while downloading

dr|z3d with a couple of decent seeds, 100MB files can be downloaded in less than an hour, maybe less than 15m if your connection's good.

not_bob The idea of streaming a video in real time though is just not really an option.

uop23ip and i can look if its crap while downl :)

not_bob Yeah, that's the only real use case I can see for this.

uop23ip people watch youtube with steady buffering :) If you want more tube than you have to make mp4 in more streaming rates

uop23ip or it can be likely to cake or other file hoster service in usage if an mp4 video is wanted to be shared in a forum or like. Post a preview gif/webp under the magnetic link. THen it's with i2paddon: click link, add, wait, click mp4 data location to see the video. Quite practical in this usecase

uop23ip forgotten: click detail

zzz git.idk.i2p/zzz/i2p.plugins.sqldb if you want to laugh at it. Don't try to install or run it

dr|z3d :)

dr|z3d what about keepalive code? where dat?

zzz on my hard drive until january as previously stated

dr|z3d ** i2ptunnelHTTP keepaliveDone, most bugs fixed, needs much more testing

zzz I also can't login to git.idk.i2p as reported to eyedeekay several days ago

dr|z3d come on, you've got it classed as done on your 2.5 roadmap page. let's have a pre-xmas look at it :)

zzz it needs some cleanup and I don't want critical bug reports over the holidays

dr|z3d I can give you an assurance that you won't get any bug reports, and I won't put it on the /dev/ branch until you're ready for it to get wider testing, if that sways you. otherwise, no worries.

zzz I also need a discussion w/ eyedeekay on how he wants the MRs first

FMae noticed another issue. on 127.0.0.1:7657/i2ptunnel/list i cant see the full b32 of a standard tunnel and a streamr tunnel but can see it for the webserver tunnel

dr|z3d is the webserver tunnel started, FMae?

FMae yes

FMae everythign is running

dr|z3d have you toggled the full (expanded) view?

dr|z3d [+] button on the Global Tunnel Control heading.

FMae imagehost.i2p/f/snsdir.png

dr|z3d let's have a look, if that site decides to load.

FMae still cut off with that toggled

dr|z3d ok, so..

dr|z3d for the webserver tunnel, you have a preview button which is your b32.

FMae i need the b32 of the retroshare tunnel lol

dr|z3d for standard and streamer you have a truncated b32 when unexpanded, and should have the full b32 if you toggle the full view as decribed.

dr|z3d either way, if you click on the truncated view and then copy it, you'll have the full b32.

dr|z3d so where you have bruz.. next to the stars, for example. click, copy -> full b32.

dr|z3d or hit the [+] button to expand the view and the full b32 should be visible.

FMae the selecting and copying works but not very intuitive

dr|z3d sure, valid point.

dr|z3d what's up with your browser fonts? it looks like you've got an addon preventing downloadable fonts from working.

FMae librewolf with noscript and addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/i2p-in-private-browsing

FMae 127.0.0.1 with js allowed

dr|z3d see if you can enable fonts, probably in noscript. everything will look a lot better.

FMae oh and its running in wine

FMae probably wine

dr|z3d oh jeebus *laughs*

FMae font smoothing is active but probably missing some fonts

FMae it looks way better than when i first installed wine lol

FMae oh god default wine is horrendous

dr|z3d no support for woff2 fonts, probably. i2p+ supplies its own fonts, so they don't need to be installed.

dr|z3d can't you run a native browser?

FMae i "can" but am testing some things

dr|z3d ok, as you were.

FMae the console does look better in the normal browser

FMae so probably wine-related

dr|z3d one more thing.. when you hit the expand button in the tunnel manager, does that expose the full b32s?

FMae they still look cut off

dr|z3d yeah, that's that nature of having a 56 character string when your viewport isn't wide enough.

dr|z3d dunno if it's worth the effort, but I could do a copy to clipboard on click with a notification, similar to how the copy magnets function works in snark.

FMae well, 14in isnt that small for a laptop lol

dr|z3d well, you can try an override if you like, for the expanded view at least.

FMae i was hoping the new "retroshare-friendserver" was about like a chatserver but not sure. the gui doesnt even have the friendserver tab its supposed to so cant fully test it

FMae i really want to get a retroshare chatserver over i2p/tor going but not much luck so far

zzz looking for testers of our new deb repo deb.i2p.net

zzz if anybody is on ilita please ask R4SAS to give it a try
