VLC screenshots

Couldn't see an appropriate topic so I thought I'd make a new one.

The screenshots page has been update with images of VLC 0.9.2 (very nice :) - even some Big Buck Bunny shots):
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/screenshots.html

Just to say rather than this:

It should render more like this:

I thought of just adding <br /> tags where appropriate - but that is completely unnecessary since all one needs to do is add "width: 150px;" to div.screenshot (line 399 in main.css BTW :)). Then the text will automatically flow onto the next line.

EDIT: Also now since there are 5 thumbnails, if you feel like it, close the php tag, add a "<p class="clearme"></p>" and then re-open the php tag after the fourth screenshot.
END OF EDIT.

Cheers, Arite.

Nice, and Big Buck Bunny was kinda funny, CloudStalker saw it awhile ago. :)The fullscreen controller looks a little nicer for XP actually, there's something slightly different. :?

Yes - the fullscreen controller is good, one of those features that people were always requesting :).

Back on the note of the screenshot layout - I see dionoea added some <br /> tags to sort the layout a bit better :).

I think the following (i.e. the same minus the added <br />, with a "<p class="clearme"></p>" after the first four divisions):

Code: Select all

<h2 class="clearme">Latest screenshots 0.9.2</h2> <?php screenshot( "0.9.2/qt-albumart.jpg",             "0.9.2/tm_qt-albumart.jpg",             "GNU/Linux Debian - Gnome Qt interface and album art", "1280x800" ); screenshot( "0.9.2/qt-fullscreen.jpg",             "0.9.2/tm_qt-fullscreen.jpg",             "GNU/Linux Debian - Gnome Qt fullscreen controller", "1042x794" ); screenshot( "0.9.2/qt-info.jpg",             "0.9.2/tm_qt-info.jpg",             "GNU/Linux Debian - KDE 3 Qt interface and compiz", "1280x800" ); screenshot( "0.9.2/screenshot-kde4.jpg",             "0.9.2/tm_screenshot-kde4.jpg",             "Arch Linux - KDE 4 Qt interface, album art and simple preferences", "1680x1050" ); ?> <p class="clearme"></p> <?php screenshot( "0.9.2/fullscreen_1.jpg",             "0.9.2/tm_fullscreen_1.jpg",             "Windows XP Qt fullscreen interface", "1280x800" ); screenshot( "0.9.2/fullscreen_osd_4.jpg",             "0.9.2/tm_fullscreen_osd_4.jpg",             "Windows XP Qt fullscreen controller", "1280x800" ); ?>
Will render correctly with "width: 150px;" added to line 399 of main.css (here). That should fully fix the layout without the need for any manual <br /> hacks.

That should output e.g.:

In fact I'm currently thinking about making the screenshots page full width (instead of 60% width or so like the other pages). That should fix the layout.

Btw, I'm still missing Vista screenshots ... so volunteers are welcome (show the simple prefs on the screenshot, or some subs with colors and different sizes, or some other cool new feature which we don't have on the page yet).

Edit: hum, it's already fullwidth. Used the p clearme trick.

Cool - yes that is better (making width 150px with additional <br /> tags removed would be even more consistent :P, especially for e.g. people with 1024x768 monitors, but still looks OK ATM).

Done. (users still need to force a refresh to get the new CSS file)

OK, VLC 0.9.2 running on Vista!

Image

seems to mostly work fine, however on the invert filter, when I paused for the screenshot, then video flickered between the normal video and the inverted version - it was like a scene from Alien or something :lol:

Also skipping chapters seemed to be a problem, causing the audio to continue but leaving the video static :/
Otherwise fine :D

Thanks for the screenshot.
About those small bugs, were you using the latest nightly build? (did you also try with a master/1.0.0 nightly?)
