Re: xPLRioNet beta v3.8h released

["Mal Lansell" <mlansell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've tried out the new version.  The 2Gb bug is fixed - all my movies
play now.  I don't have anything over 3.5Gb, so I don't know what
happens with 4Gb+ files.

On the movie screens, I don't see anything apart from a pink frame
around what I presume would be a thumbnail image of some sort.  I can
switch to text mode OK, but I wondered what I should be seeing in the
thumbnail view - do I need to create a default image file (this is
the same behaviour as in previous versions - I just forgot to mention
it)

I thought I'd also chip in and second the idea of individual cover
art thumbnails named the same as the movie, and generated
independently of xplRioNet - that would be most useful.

BTW, I still have the pink text - it's almost as lovely as my orange
website ;-)

Good luck with the kitchen.  You're making me feel guily about not
finishing mine now!
