Hi J River,

Is there a new build tonight cos if not I am going to bed as I stayed up way too late testing last night ;D (about 3.30am and I had to be up at 7)

The heady heights of the beta testers life ;D

Sorry, Adam.  I should have posted.

No new build tonight.  We spent half a day at our local public television station talking with them about a project they are doing.  Digital TV gives them a lot of new bandwidth and they are experimenting with what they can do with it.  They have a spare megabit/sec or two they can use for distributing data.

A few pictures are here:

Apologies for the first page.  It's a test uploaded from MC.  We'll have thumbnails in a few days.

Sounds like a nice project.  Shame we have nothing like that over here yet...when we have cable companies like NTL running our TV network I am surprised we ever get any TV at all!!  Thanks for letting me know anyways...I shall to bed and that way I should be able to get up in the morning!!!

Cheers

Adam

How does a person go about doing this? I don't recall seeing this feature before.

It's buried because it isn't finished.

Select a few image files.  Right click, send to, tools, FTP Upload.  The directory must exist.  The progress bar won't advance and the upload is slow, so try 4 or 5 files before you try more.

It creates an index file with an odd name -- something like index-t.html , but you can rename it.

We need to add automatic creation of the directory, naming of the html file, thumbnails, and maybe conversion of the image file size.
