Oh boy, another engine to do widgets.

I heard Patrick Norton discuss web browsers on TWIT59.
Are there better browsers than firefox?
How is the implementation of RSS (XML) feeds?

Happy days!

I tried Opera 9 beta, and I wasn't impressed with their widgets. It could have changed dramatically. But I think I will stay with Firefox w/SessionSaver and Google Desktop.

Here's to you, Pattey!!!

Can't wait for the show.

It's a Blu-Ray Day! :-)

STREAM THAT BEAUTIFUL HD FOOTAGE!

Another fine day of dl.tv can't wait. 8 minuts and counting.

Yes, Patrick said he "hated" feedback forums. Anonymous
trolls marching about.

It's soylent green day--like all Tuesday's.

A ZDNet.com Blog, posted by Ed Bott. Ed speculates that a specific unanswered question may reveal a September date to disable Windows if WGA has not been applied to computers running Windows.

It was great!

I hope they talk about more than just Blu-Ray.

Is it just me that I noticed that BR has 25 GB storage along with the online storage, or am I just paranoid?

I like hearing the little blurbs when Scott bumps the mute button!

Guess what? WGA might be on the verge of getting even messier. In fact, one report claims WGA is about to become a Windows kill switch  and when asked Microsoft for an on-the-record response, they refused to deny it.

Happy Belated Birthday Yesterday Patrick! Today will be a great episode, and I am very excited.

Last week sucked.

Nothin' says you can't have Firefox and Opera 9, lol! Firefox is my primary browser also and Opera makes a great back-up! It has support for BitTorrent" which I like. They've got some great-looking widgets too!

I look forward to seeing it. I may have to download this version! :-)

Hey guys, there's been an update since Vista Beta 2, thought u might be reviewing what's new in today's show. Maybe next ep...

Wow, that is a big monitor they have behind them

The audio and video streams keep dropping out, video more so - is this just me?

I have nothing wrong with my connection. Using WMP11, all you do is right click, File, Open Url, and copy this into the box:

Same Here

Nope - naught wrong with my connection. Not using WMP11. It's a mystery!

me too :-(

but then again i've been having problems on and off today accessing the major sites. i'm on the east coast using comcast. i think it's a bigger problem...

I'm in the UK - so I don't think it's the ISP

It's been fine for the last few weeks but tonight it seems worse than ever. Oh well, back to the podcast!

It's stopping and starting here also. But maybe it's me... Usually it works well. Who knows?

I'll catch it tomorrow ...

Hi guys. I'm a big fan! Robert is right about The Fifth Element being timeless. I love that movie.
Anyways, I heard about the new parking meters here in Vancouver, B.C. Canada today. Actually there is a 30 Cent surcharge not 30%.
Take care and keep up the Great work!

P.s. Robert would you be my mentor and teach me all you know about HDTV? Have you heard of the new HDTV ver. 1.3 format to come in the near future?

Same problem here.

To quote Kevin Rose - "Forget You".

Drops here too.

Good video and sound here.

It's Getting Worse. But Can't Stop Watching. :)

this is taking the piss its unwatchable if they know so much about tech why the hell cant they stream video correctly
p.s
Robert is the greatest

show is completly unwatchable.

I wonder if Robert or Patrick have an IM client running whist they're on air - we could get them to hit the tricaster!

at the moment (and for the last few hours), i can't access CNN, Hotmail, or Yahoo (to name a few). Gmail works fine though. and BBC news is also on and off for me. like i said, i think there are wider issues, but obviously not affecting all. gotta love the interweb ;-)

"dodecagonal"

Saw that the caption had "dodgegonal."

Rather limited show.

Don't use vista on thursday. :'(..

stream worked great on my end.
maybe your computer just sucks.

does anyone remember the website they showed for the live xgl iso download, korasa.org something?

heyho
i just tried windows vista
then the time limit thing ran out
-----
but it still works completly
----
how
----
when you go online to buy a key change the www to
drive c:\ then you can enter the operating system and run everything like normal
there so stupid arent they thanks for the free beta though

there were a few dropouts for me (toronto, CANADA) overall a good show, im sticking to firefox

Run suse not vista on the thursday.! :'(

http://kororaa.org/ is the link to the Live CD with Xgl, although it's getting outdated and they haven't updated it yet due to legal wranglings.

Might be there are now too many people using the net and not enough bandwidth to watch the live feed. Traffic shaping failures, QoS flaws, p2p contention. Perhaps ZDnet cannot do anything about these externalities and most of us will simply have to wait 24 hours to download the show.

It's too bad. Catching the live show is fun.

The download link is broken as of : 15:12 CST 8={

As Robert would say: Waahh.. Waah... WAAHHH... !!!!

Can anyone explain why after getting XGL & Compiz to work on OpenSuSE it won't boot into a GUI and I have to completely reinstall SuSE? Someone help me!

What utterly laughable products. Thanks for the warning, dl.tv.

I must say that I love your show! Keep up the good work!

What's interesting is I heard that the BDR-101A wasn't going to be released to the public (IIRC it was something to do with our old friend DRM)...I wonder if that changed in order to beat HD-DVD burners to market...

In other news, the next DVD burner from Pioneer, the DVR-112, is rumoured to use native SATA (unlike most SATA optical drives that essentially use a SATA->IDE converter internally). Can't wait if its true, I guess time will tell.

Glad you recommended Opera 9, I am goign to give it a try I haven't been very happy with Firefox. It crashes in my opinion more than IE. Also Firefox seems to be hogging my system ram I have 1 gig of system ram and firefox is using over 200megs of memory with 1 window open and only 3 tabs. That seems absolutly outrageous to me.
Oh and I have ZERO plug-ins so that can't be it.

But I am still using firefox for Tabs and Security :-/

So thanks :-)

Guys why keep talking about Vista ad nauseum...it's going to be XP with some eyecandy and a whole new slew of bugs and security holes. Yet there's been no mention of OS X and parallels desktop with XP running in a window - unless I missed it.

Where is the link for Episode 74? I can't see it. but I have the show running in WMP11

Robert said "I can spin the cube [from pron] to Excel when the boss comes.."
Whats that under WINE or is it an old version from the xenix days?

Robert probably made a slip of the tongue and should have said "Spreadsheet" instead of Excel. OpenOffice.org2 will read Excel files and I believe is part of the default install on SuSE. OpenOffice can run on windows too, and is free http://www.openoffice.org

If you boot into a command line after getting Xgl to work you can try running the command "startx" to get the GUI up. If this fails, then there is probably a problem with your xorg.conf file.

The file /etc/X11/xorg.conf controls your monitor and graphics card settings (along with a few other things). You can use a text editor from the command line to edit and check this file if you can't get into a GUI. You probably have a typo in there somewhere, or are trying to load the wrong video driver. Print out the Xgl installation instructions, boot into the command line, edit the file & compare to what the instructions say need to be in there.

Good Luck!

Nice demo of XGL Robert. I just missed one feature of XGL your didn't show. That is the windows sticking to the side of the screen. It's really cool. I just love the XGL eye candy.

Blu Ray media like the 5th Element is so overused. Blu Ray is really doing itself a disservice. It is not ready using MPEG2. The media is ruched and grainy. Sony has released the 5th Element 4 times now despite it being a "reference." Seriously, is there any tread left or is it just like throwing a hotdog down a hallway (Stewie.)

Blu Ray has more potential, but HD DVD is impressing now. Blu Ray is like a 12 year old and HD DVD is 21. If you are doing the Blu Ray you are a pedophile.

I care very little about eye candy and no matter what OS I run, I minimize by default all the options apart from a nice background so I must admit that I found the fade option to be very useful as well as the desktop cube thing. The wiggle effect is cute but as useless as other similar stuff.

And there is binaries available for Ubuntu Dapper!!
