Paul,

  It displays fine with no issue. Remy said something about a Captcha, but I don't see one - maybe the blocker I use blocks it? Also, I wonder if the user agent has an effect - I'm using 'Mozilla/5.0 (OS/2; OS/2 i386) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/94.0.4606.126 Safari/537.36', a slight modification of the default.

  The priority change is definitely what helps here - without it I get the usual hangs and silent exits regularly.  Much rarer with the priority change - any idea why that might be? Related to the processor optimization maybe? Or an interaction between that and the processor I'm using? Wish I knew more about the settings too - maybe it can be tweaked even more....

Regards,

The forum about athena has a security check before going into the site.
I put a screenshot (taken under firefox which is slow with this process) of the expected display during this security check (there is a turning circle which should change to a checkbox to confirm been human and not a robot. once it is accepted (sometimes, it requires to reply more than one time), the request is routed to the site.
This process is part of cloudflare security check (see bottom of the screenshot) to prevent cyber attacks and is more and more used by web sites

Sometimes, it didn't display (may be number of ip country issuer or host ip request dependent !)

updt:
- Cloudflare Captcha differs from those of google

  when clicking on getting free, you go through the verification !
- Google captcha:
I found a link to test them reCaptcha (v2, v3)
https://recaptcha-demo.appspot.com/
(tested v2 which is very slow and not sure to go through...

V3 score is correct.

When opening a link requesting Cloudflare verification, it start and close (no message, no information)
catchap from Performance & security by Cloudflare (a more and more used process)

I'll double check the flags which are set in the gn build file for ffmpeg this evening.

OK,  so I forgot I built ffmpeg separately as DLLs.

I configured with:
dash ./configure --arch=pentium4 --disable-avx2 --disable-avx512 --enable-bzlib --disable-crystalhd --enable-fontconfig --enable-gnutls --enable-libfreetype --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libopus --disable-decoder=opus --disable-encoder=opus --enable-libtheora --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libwebp --enable-libx264 --enable-libxvid --enable-avfilter --enable-postproc --disable-static --enable-shared --enable-gpl --disable-debug --disable-stripping --cpu=pentium4 --enable-runtime-cpudetect

adding --disable-avx to this now, and will rebuild with GCC 14.

Hi Paul!

will ffmpeg be usable if adding --enable-pthreads option ?

Remy.

  I haven't noticed any strange mouse movement during video play, but will pay attention. I have had Dooble eventually hang during playback, but usually (about 4 out of 5 times) can still use the WPS, but it is not killable so have to reboot.

Regards,

Kill Dooble and close the prompt window from which dooble was started.

Same here,

https://www.os2world.com/cms/index.php/past-news/79-news/general/23815-arcaos-nlv-national-language-version-poll
Opening the strawpoll link and then show result (dooble closes)

 ------------------------------------------------

I tried an other setting of the priority which seems good too or a little better

SysSetPriority(3,8) instead of  SysSetPriority(1,3)

Changing Time-critical priority instead of Idle-time priority
By curiosity, is it possible to have priority set on the ffmpeg part only instead of all the process ?

I'm able to open a new tab while playing youtube but the requested newlink will not display and may stuck dooble after several seconds

I wonder if it's the change in priority or the QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS that makes the difference? If it's priority, we could consider setting this in dooble.

Hi Paul,
Do you think about something like -webengine-proprietary-codecs ?

Hi Paul,
is there a reason to enable, disable:

--enable-libopus --disable-decoder=opus --disable-encoder=opus

Is --enable-avresample parm supported ?

Remy's cmd seems to work fairly well, on the 2nd try youtube works as expected for a while then the UI gets kind of stuck needing to close Dooble.

Hi Dave,
How is it responding when you do not move the mouse and than, when you move it a lot during youtube play ?

What version of OS/2 are you running? Older kernels have bugs affecting release of memory. Latest ArcaOS kernel has patches to mitigate this.

Arca OS 5.1
All at latest build.

Once storage is taken, about 20M aren't returned at dooble exit time
(reused if restarting dooble)

I tried something and youtube is working with qt6.2.9 - dooble qt6 !!!!   
Instead of start the environment like most do I suppose, I change my batch file to rexx batch file and added a priority setting:

/* */
call RxFuncAdd 'SysSetPriority', 'RexxUtil', 'SysSetPriority'
rc=SysSetPriority(1,3)
'@REM' /* rem the @echo off line to see the output. */
'@ECHO off'
/*
REM point QT6_DIR to where you have installed the QT6 tree
REM Copy Dooble.* into %QT6_DIR%\bin
*/
'set QT6_DIR=W:'
'set PATH=%QT6_DIR%\qt6-6.2.x\bin;%PATH%'
'set BEGINLIBPATH=%QT6_DIR%\qt6-6.2.x\lib;%BEGINLIBPATH%'
/*
REM point %DOOBLE_HOME% to where you want the QT6 version of Dooble to store
REM its profile.
*/
'set DOOBLE_HOME=%QT6_DIR%\qt6-6.2.x'
/*
REM these are the same as command line arguments and should not be needed eventually.
*/
'set QTWEBENGINE_CHROMIUM_FLAGS="--ignore-certificate-errors --ignore-ssl-errors --log-level=1 --disable-gpu"'
'SET EXCEPTQ=D'
'Dooble.exe'
/*
REM echo Now run Dooble from this VIO session
*/

May be you could give a try and check if youtube site will play.

After some time, video controls where no more available but it continues to play.

Hi Paul,


Q: how to get back shared low storage used by dooble at dooble exit time ?

After been able to run youtube, I saw that the "removed" message I previously listed always appears (not the culprit)

Hi Dave,

That's interesting. Is this the same machine that is locking up with Samba? Can you remind me what hardware it's running?

I tried latest build.
The link to volcan seems to well work (tried 2 times)

About youtube:
Embedded youtube video works
Opennig the video under youtube directly made it to start and stop (very quickly) making dooble unresponsive but I could kill it without reboot.

Hi Paul,

I tried it on my ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 2024:

unfortunately no sound. I guess this is because I can configurate it the right way.

A attach some logfiles here:

- unimix -card    and
- unimx -list

files I created with UNIAUD Config.sys Switch none, 0, 1, 2

Sometimes the Laptop reports to have 2, sometimes 3 audio hardware.

I tried with switch 2 in config.sys, and use the toneein.cmd (here as a toneein.txt) to switch on the options.

Unfortunately no sound, I got a POPUPLOG once.

All files are packed as Zephyrus.zip and attached

Do you have any hints, advice, what else I could check or try?

Thank you very much!

Do you specify which adapter to use on your uniaudio driver ?
e.g.
DEVICE=C:\MMOS2\UNIAUD32.SYS /A:1

Hi Remi

I just tried https://earthquakes.volcanodiscovery.com/ with latest qt6 and dooble. The result was that the page loaded enough to display then dooble closed with no log. Definitely a problem there as I tried that url 2 more times with the same result.


Regards

Pete

I did new tries today with the site having volcano widget.
This time, it display for a few seconds and after several second, Cpus start to work a lot and system frozes
I did a cpu load capture just before it goes into a frozen state (after having got one and could see having enought time to kill the process when cpus goes high)

No exceptq !
