12:24 willkg hi!
12:51 CarlFK left #miro-hackers
13:35 z3p good morning
13:40 willkg z3p: oo...  that dialog fix is going to affect a lot of dialogs.  think i should rerun the nightlies?
13:41 z3p: also, i apologize.  i saw that in your checkin and wondered whether that would cause problems, but then figured that you had tested it and didn't look into it further.
13:42 janetPCF: so i'm pretty stuck with this "upgrade from 3.5.1 to 4.0 and directory torrents restart" problem.
13:43 janetPCF that sucks
13:43 willkg janetPCF: i pretty much spent most of yesterday on it.  i have everything lined up right, but i must be missing something because libtorrent restarts rather than checks and then resumes.
13:44 janetPCF could you fudge it a bit -
13:44 willkg i think i'm just going to do a brain dump, attach my database upgrade patch, and then bump it down to P2.
13:44 i'm not sure what "fudge it a bit" entails?
13:44 janetPCF move out the data, start it fresh, move back the data to the new dir and then restart the torrent
13:44 z3p willkg: a new nightly is a good idea
13:44 janetPCF then it would check and find the already downloaded stuff
13:44 willkg that's a ton of complexity.
13:44 janetPCF yes
13:44 z3p willkg: I did a quick smoke test, but I guess it didn't hit the dialogs
13:45 willkg janetPCF: i'm re-running the nightlies to pick up a fix z3p just did that fixes dialogs.
13:46 janetPCF ok
13:46 willkg janetPCF: going back to the torrent thing....  what i did do in the database upgrade was fix the filename so that it's pointing to the right place.  i have no idea why libtorrent doesn't just go with it.
13:47 janetPCF: mmm...  i'll spend some more time on it today, i suppose and debug 3.5.1 to see how it works.
13:54 i just posted new nightlies for windows, osx and source.
14:27 janetPCF: yeah...  i can't figure out what's going on.  i think in order to figure out what's going on, i need to add debugging for libtorrent and that's probably a project.
14:27 janetPCF: so i'm pushing this torrent upgrade problem down to p2.  maybe i'll have time to work on it later.
14:28 janetPCF ok  -
14:28 it will just be a few angry emails
14:31 willkg probably.
14:31 or maybe none.  it's a pretty weird edge case.
14:31 plus we could tell people in the upgrade notes to finish their downloads BEFORE upgrading.
14:36 janetPCF true - in the pop-up message
14:36 (in tiny letters at the very bottom)
14:38 ajonas joined #miro-hackers
14:40 willkg we should probably tell people it's best to finish their downloads before upgrading for all version upgrades.  it reduces the state complexity and it's more likely to work right.

16:15 yup, they're awesome

17:03 paulproteus ajonas: In some awesome alternate reality, every Miro Community site exposes its custom themes as a git repository.
17:03 ajonas paulproteus: *nod*
17:03 paulproteus (at least, if the site markes the themes as public, or doesn't mark them as private, or something)

17:54 z3p neat, django 1.3 released
17:59 willkg bendk: the conversion item rendering is a little odd.  there's the arrow thing which is used for context menu, but conversion items don't seem to have a context menu.
17:59 bendk: does that sound right?
17:59 bendk oops
17:59 yeah, that's wrong
17:59 I'll fix that right now
18:00 willkg sorry i haven't looked at this until just now.  today is conversion day.
18:01 bendk wow, I'm noticing several bugs with that one
18:02 willkg i'm working on osx right now.  not sure if that's useful bit of information or not.
18:03 bendk: but it seems like it's doing some weird artifacting on osx between when it's converting and when it's done.
18:03 bendk can you send me a screenshot of that?
18:06 CarlFK left #miro-hackers
18:06 willkg bendk: sure.
18:12 bendk: it's bug 16785.  figured i'd just toss it in a bug with the attached screenshot.
18:15 bendk cool
18:16 that's the same issue we've had in other places.  translucent button images + the badges don't work
18:17 willkg :)
18:17 was it ok that i created a bug for it?
18:18 ahh--just saw you changing the bug.  i'm glad i created a bug for it now.
18:25 CarlFK joined #miro-hackers
18:40 willkg deardiary: working through conversion issues.
18:40 i think i can implement "don't upsize, you jerk!" code without reimplementing how we're storing conversion recipes.
18:40 it'll be interesting, though.
18:41 i really wish ffmpeg had the ability to output in structured formats.  even if it was xml.  that'd be easier to parse correctly.
18:42 if it can already do that, then i haven't found the right argument for it.  there are a gazillion arguments.
18:50 z3p willkg: yeah, 'ffmpeg -i' is as good as it gets
18:51 willkg hrm...  irritating.
19:03 zanoi how can I in the code get the linux command to start Miro? Is it always "miro", no matter the branding?
19:04 willkg zanoi: mmm...  why do you ask?
19:05 zanoi because I noticed I'm currently registering "miro" as the magnet protocol command, but that might be incorrect for rebranded versions
19:06 but I think in Windows it was always miro.exe, no matter the branding
19:07 willkg so...  on linux, what happens is we have a miro shell script that sets things up and calls miro.real which is a python script.
19:07 zanoi but will that always be called "miro", even in rebranded versions?
19:07 willkg to my knowledge, themign and other things don't change that.  so "miro" should always be the script uses.
19:08 z3p: is that right?  ^^^
19:08 zanoi ok, thanks
19:08 z3p willkg: zanoi: yes, the executable is always miro/Miro.exe; themes are an argument to that executable
19:08 willkg also, "theme" == "brand" in this context.  for some reason, we called it themes in the code.
19:09 zanoi z3p, so it's always "miro" on linux?
19:09 willkg afk a smidge to watch the baby giggle.
19:09 z3p zanoi: yes
19:09 zanoi ah, sorry misunderstood your sentence
19:09 thx
20:14 bendk willkg: I know we have talked about making the downloader process download to the main directory...  is there a ticket for that?
20:15 willkg bendk: the main directory?  i'm not sure what that means.
20:15 bendk the movies directory
20:15 rather than <movies directory>/incomplete downloads
20:15 willkg mmm...  that seems really messy.
20:15 bendk maybe I'm going crazy :)
20:15 willkg the nice thing about incomplete downloads is that we know that anything that shows up there is not completely downloaded and therefore shouldn't show up in miro and shouldn't have its metadata checked.
20:15 bendk but I thought that we were talking about making that change to make torrent folders work better
20:16 willkg with conversions we convert to the temp directory and when it's done copy it over.
20:16 we might have.  i don't remember.  i think it'd cause other problems.
20:16 kcw bendk: is the item details expander state supposed to be totally global, or global for listviews and for standardviews?
20:17 bendk global for listviews and standard views
20:17 and by default it will be shown for list view, but not for standard view
20:17 willkg bendk: we can probably work around that, though.  miro should know all the files it's downloading.  even with directory torrents (it's in the metainfo).
20:18 bendk: anyhow, i don't know if there's a bug for that work.  i vaguely remember talking about it, but it would have been a couple of weeks ago.
20:23 back to conversion fiddling.
20:28 bendk okay, searching through the #miro-hackers logs, I don't see any record of you saying that willkg I think it was my dream
20:30 willkg bendk: i think it might have been on the dev call.
20:30 bendk: i vaguely remember talking about deluge and what other software does.  and they don't have the same issue because they just download things.
20:30 bendk ahh yeah
20:31 the problem is partially downloaded folders
20:31 willkg bendk: anyhow, it might be possible because miro knows about all the currently downloading files.
20:31 pretty sure that's doable, too.  you know about all the files from the torrent metainfo.
20:31 at least, i'm pretty sure you get a complete list of files.
20:31 bendk yeah it's doable, but with the current code I don't think the download would ever finish
20:31 but that wouldn't be a problem if we were just downloading to the correct place anyway
20:31 willkg i don't understand.  the download would never finish?
20:32 bendk I'm not sure about this, but I'm guessing that libtorrent won't say that a download is finished until all the files in the folder are downloaded
20:34 willkg bendk: deluge definitely lets you download some files.  so there has to be a way to tell libtorrent what to download and for it to know when it's "done".
20:34 bendk: i'm not sure what we're talking about now, though....  are we talking about that bug that lets users specify which files in the torrent to download?
20:34 bendk yeah, I think that's partly where the discussion began
20:34 * willkg nods.
20:34 bendk but I'm confused too now :)
20:35 let's just keep it in the realm of things that we think we want, but need to flesh out more
20:35 willkg i'm pretty sure the "where to download to" issue can be extracted into a fully encapsulated issue that doesn't affect the "i only want files x and y" issue.
20:35 i want to rewrite the downloader.
20:36 ;)
20:36 bendk I'm pretty sure the 2 issues are related
20:36 let's forget about the download finishing issue
20:36 * willkg nods.
20:37 bendk there's also the issue of what happens when I ask for some of the files, the torrent finishes, then I ask for more of the files, should we move the download back to the incomplete downloads directory then?
20:37 willkg oh, i know!  we talked about this after the dev call.
20:37 bendk it all gets much simpler if the torrent folder never moves
20:38 yes, it was an actual conversation
20:38 willkg and we got about 10 minutes into "so what happens when..." and i said, "woah nelly!  this is too much to figure out for 4.0."
20:38 i'm remembering this all now.
20:38 you're totally right--they're definitely related.
20:39 man...  my memory sucks these days.  it's frustrating.
20:40 i'll go see if there's a bug for ditching Incomplete Downloads now.  if not, we need to create taht and have the "i want files x and y" bug block on it.
20:49 CarlFK left #miro-hackers
20:50 willkg bendk: i can't find a bug for it, so i'm creating a new one.
20:50 bendk: is this a 4.0 or a 4.1 thing?  (please say 4.1.  :))
20:51 bendk 4.1 definitely
20:54 willkg bendk: it's bug 16789.  i'll let you add comments, prioritize and target it.
20:54 bendk: oh, and add the block on 16433.
20:54 bendk thanks
20:57 willkg bendk: er, nevermind.  i just prioritized, targeted and blocked it.
20:57 bendk: but definitely toss comments in there.
21:04 bendk willkg: how's your list going?
21:04 any interest in http://bugzilla.pculture.org/s[…]_bug.cgi?id=16788
21:08 #15494 closed!!!  It's a new era
