The border is gone in 0.8.1! Excellent! Brilliant!

Thank you so much!

(Compilation went fine on Gentoo 64, Qt 4.7.2) - Jul 09 2011

Hi,

in full screen mode, I still see a thin, blue border. Quite annoying.

Otherwise, thank you for sharing this! - May 04 2011

After having run this for years, I suddenly can't get it to compile. The only change on my system I can think of is upgrading libjpeg from version 6 to 7.

Excellent, thanks for sharing! - Mar 19 2009

I can't change to KDE 4 before this works. Please, carstenw42, can you let us know if it's at all possible for you to port this? - Mar 19 2009

I think Amarok doesn't support Akode anymore. - Jul 05 2007

I'm sorry to say that almost every single word of your description is misspelled or otherwise incorrect. If it wasn't for my large brain, the text would be completely incomprehensible. - Jun 16 2007

I saw this application, and thought I'd give it a try. Then I read some quite rude and stupid comments from you, and I'm left somewhat baffled. Suffice it to say, your complete lack of people skills takes away any faith in your program and your ability to support it I might have had. - Feb 25 2007

I very much agree. I like the konsole background to be the desktop wallpaper. But it should update as I move the konsole window, which it doesn't in a standard KDE. - Nov 06 2006

Yakuake is great, I use it all the time. Thanks!

Two bugs:

1) I use a semitransparent background in Yakuake and a slideshow background on the desktop. Yakuake doesn't update its background when the desktop does. Or ever, actually.

2) The window decoration on Yakuake should be the same as the rest of KDE, not some fixed bitmaps. - Sep 08 2006

Thank you for looking into this! - Aug 28 2006

I also get this. Whenever I open a new Konqueror (in file management mode) and right-click, CPU usage goes up and a handful of those messages appears. Very annoying. After that, no more errors in that instance on Konqueror.

I updated to 0.9.1, but the problem remained. I'll try 0.9.2.

Nice program though, I use it often! - Aug 27 2006

Thank you for sharing this, it's great!

I'm using a folder with about 4000 pictures in it. But very often SSS shows the same picture several times within a short time. It seems that the randomness isn't perfect.

When my system is under heavy load (io), SSS often keeps showing the same picture over and over, fading it in and out.

Thanks again! - Aug 22 2006

This is a very nice app -- thanks!

Problems:

- The target file size doesn't work. When I set it to 700MB I got 515MB, and 350MB became 502MB (another file).

- It would be nice to be able to skip faster between pages.

- If I haven't selected a format that requires splitting, that page shouldn't be shown.

- There's a translation error on the cropping page.

- Suggestion: Make it possible to enter target file name and folder.

- Suggestion: Make it possible to use other folders than /dev/dvd. As it is now I have to mount dvd images to /dev/dvd or use links.


Thanks again! - Jul 11 2006

OK, I should have checked before posting. This appears to have been fixed:

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123796 - Apr 02 2006

I'd vote for that too! - Apr 02 2006

Where do I find kdemultimedia-devel? - Nov 15 2005

Thank you for your answer. I had already done as you describe, and the files were in the correct places. I just had to run kbuildsycoca to update the system. Kdesvn works fine now. - Oct 06 2005

Thank you for this nice program. I had 0.2 working on KDE 3.4 (I think), but now I can't get 0.6.2 to work on KDE 3.5_beta1. It compiles and installs fine, it just doesn't appear in Konqueror. - Oct 05 2005

This looks nice, although the screenshots don't reveal much. However, I can't get it to run on Kontact 1.2 on KDE 3.5_beta1. - Oct 02 2005

Hi again,

I like Nuvola a lot, make no mistake! However, a couple of points:

1.0 has new icons in Kmail, for get-new-mail, return, send and others. I don't think they're all that good. They look too much like each other, and I can't immediately tell which does what -- I have to wait for the tooltip.

New versions of Amarok will change the color of its tray icon as it plays a file. That effect isn't very clear with the Amarok icon from 1.0.

The tray icon for the program Knowit looks blank -- maybe Nuvola doesn't provide one?

The icon for Kstars is very hard to discern in its smallest version. - Nov 20 2004

Thanks for Nuvola, it's great!!!

However: From rc1 to 1.0 all icons have become a bit more shiny and colorful. The colors I can accept, but please don't make them any more shiny! The non-shiny ("plain") look is part of what makes Nuvola great.

Thanks again! - Nov 18 2004

Hi!

This seems like a nice app, but I'm getting a lot of errors in the compile. There seems to be problems with pwlib (ptlib). Where should I ask for help with such problems? Here, on the project page forum or what?

This looks awesome!
I don't know anything about this database of songs, but I hope it's big. I've got many mp3s I'd like to get identified. Mostly early organ music and also some experimental jazz from the 70s and 80s. And also it will be nice to finally find out exactly which recordings are which in a large folder of classical music.
How does this work? I suppose the music is somehow hashed and some sort of musically semantic checksum is made, which is correlated to a master list. But I'm amazed that this can actually be done. - Jan 21 2004
