I have added a classic game to my site today. Its written in Java but the original goes back to the days that we had only ASCII characters. But it is addicting in same way as back in those days. You can find it on my page http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e158.htm or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n158.htm.

Picture, this one is graphics ;-)


Have fun,
Joop

I have added a new program to my Java homepage, its not a game but some kind of PIM. Its called Makagiga and because of our version of Java we are walking far behind. But the latest version for our version of Java can still be downloaded and it works, almost all of it. There is not much to read on my page besides where to get the program and how to setup. You have to run it and then its this is for me or I don't like it. You can find my page here in English http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e159.htm  or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e159.htm.

There is a picture too,


Up to next program ;-), be safe and have fun,
Joop

Hi Joop

Good to see that version 1.8 was running on OS/2, my last report was 1.6.2.

My Gantt was more realistic  :D

Hi Joop
Good to see that version 1.8 was running on OS/2, my last report was 1.6.2.
All versions do run on our system, but because I was too lazy in making a new Gantt, I wanted to use the old data. That didn't go with versions 1.9 and up due to a format change. But I could import the xml data. And with that action I found out that a part of the program was compiled for Java 7. So I did some other tests. Version 1.8 does do everything, but be aware that there are still some bugs, but not the one found in higher versions. I did made a ticket, but as all tickets are still open I doubt that it will be read and act.
I don't know if your Gantt is more realistic, I just did a few things in order to see what the program does ;-)

I have added a new utility to my Java homepage. Its called Jacksum and it can check if your download is the same as on the server and lots of more situations were Jacksum can be a handy tool. Read more on my page in English http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e162.htm or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6n162.htm. Mind it does not have a GUI,its a so called CLI program,so here a picture;



So, that's it for today, have fun and stay healthy. For me up to next program,
Joop

Hi Joop

Do you want to include "Java Screen Recorder". I used it on the past it worked to create some videos of the OS/2 desktop screen.
http://code.google.com/p/java-screen-recorder

Here it is a sample: https://youtu.be/-JGlB8wrG8o

I did play today with it. It makes a files which have to be converted to a mov file. My very small try-out test.cap 1.249.885 converts to test.mov 65.408.667. What happens if you make an instruction movie (you did hang on my doorbell for this) with some length. What will happen at maximum filesize?

The 3 programs from Java-Screen-Recorder are very basic and more CLI then a program with a GUI. So, what's more which still works in Java 6? I found JScreenRecorder, but after "installing" and run the program I got an error with version 51, which means Java 7. But there was source... All other modules where compiled for version 6, only the main program leaves you in the dark because there is no information about minimal version. So I started Netbeans and did a try compilation. Got errors which Netbeans solved just by pushing some buttons. Got the question if I would downgrade to 6, YES. Next got errors which pointed to a not complete source. But with the way I do translations and bring that into a program, I did the same with the files from the test run. So now I have JScreenRecorder for Java 6 ;-). Did test the program. Yes it does everything what it should do, but.... Full screen is a problem, not due to recompiling. Java-Screen-Recorder doesn't have any problems with that. Also I want to do something, but its going smoother with Java-Screen-Recorder then with JScreenRecorder. So,it seems that GUI is not everything.... Also Java-Screen-Recorder has "internal" its own file format which can be converted to Quick-Time format. JScreenRecorder makes MP4 files. Not sure if the speed and smoothness has to do with the different file formats.

Now busy with page for Java-Screen-Recorder. English ready, have to do Dutch... Stay tuned ;-)

Hi Joop

Yes, java-screen-recorder is very basic, but it was the only thing that I found working. Do you consider you compiled version of JScreenRecorder better? please give me a download link of it to give it a try.

I have added Java-Screen-Recorder to my Java pages. There is something to read and you can find it on my page in English http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e163.htm or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e163.htm. You can make instruction movies with this package.

I have a picture with the player section (6 buttons at the top) and a tiny window with the record part;


In my search for other screen record programs I did find programs which has nothing to do with it, but needs testing. So have fun with this package and stay healthy.

No, JScreenRecorder does has two/three problems on my machine.
1) It looses or has problem with focus with the watermark feature. Even when set the mark it sometimes complains that it is not set and its not clear why. Also it didn't show the mark in the watermark panel with the choice option what watermark to use. It show sometimes and it doesn't show sometimes. Setting the watermark on a full screen capture seems not possible. Start small and enlarge it to full screen is possible for the capture area, the watermark won't move with it, so it ends up somewhere in the middle (that explains some video's). The watermark screen does hang, only way out is restarting the system. You can omit this with settings and not use the watermark.
2) If set to recording it is not possible on my machine to start an other program and do/show things how to and so on. The cpu pulse shoots to 99% and starting Mozilla won't go. Only after stopping the recording, the program comes up and on screen. So, for capture and showing things its pretty useless. You first have to start  the program, then start JScreenRecorder. And even then its going slow and sluggish.

End of story, I am an experience richer with recompiling a part. That's a plus. This program is not for my Java site. To much trouble on things you want to use and to much computer restarts. The bug tracker file stays empty, so no Java errors!

I have added a new program today to my Java corner. Its called Infocard Organizer and it is an outliner. You can read a little more on my page http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e164.htm or in Dutch http://joopn.home.xs4all.nl/os2ecs/ecs6e164.htm.

This is how it looks like;
