So Is Today The Day?

[Wobedraggled]

Are we going to get a treat today, or more waiting?

I have high hopes, I haven't been on due to work.

Let us pray

Waiting.

I'm sure.

I think we need to wait for the divx code to be removed, or perhaps changed, but then again I think you managed to really piss off Cragix, and without him pushing for it, GPH/Dignsys may decide to just not bother, as it's costing them a lot of money to get everything ready for public release - they may decide to spend the money elsewhere (specially considering that most people will not even look at it anyway).

Not today, it seems - read locked post (about 2 pages back) "Where's the firmware, getting edgy'. Basically the situation is that Dignsys were silly enough to incorporate a licensed DivX engine into the Mplayer code, assumedly removing the original decoding engine built into it, but still requiring that they remove the code for the DivX engine from the source code. If it's the firmware you're after, I'd like to think it'd be pretty silly of them to release it without the source.. *shudders away unpleasant thoughts of forum riots.. *

Damn, you beat me to it Squidge. I'm not going to go into a 'I was on his side' rant, but is there anything we can do to show our appreciation towards Craig? Might be too little, too late, but I've never had a problem with the guy and it seems he's helped us out a great deal.

Guess I missed the original post.

Are we expecting new firmware, or the source for the firmware, or both?

Whoa, wait a goddamn second.

I pissed off someone, and now things are held up?

I asked a question, if someone cant handle that then they have some issues.

This community is way to uptight, I am in awe.

I imagine the You was of the plural variety referring to everyone who indulged in the "angry emails et al" campaign that seems to have been running alongside everything else.

And there certainly are those among us who have managed to really really piss off those who we need to not be pissed off, regardless of the right or wrong of the situation.

I hope so, I never emailed anyone, I've only asked a few questions here.

I would like to know how big the staff is working on this, because it's seems to be a slow process.

I'm just an early adopter that would like to see success not failure.

how long does it take to delete some code? this is code which you put there and know exactly where it is...shouldnt it be as simple as finding it and deleting it...zipping up the source..upload somewhere..done...

i dont really care about the source, as i wont use it, i just want my firmware fix

 

[Rayek]

I hope S wasn't talking about ME. I never emailed anyone, just expressed the importance of getting the source. Here.

Read through pages 10 and 11 of this thread to see what the problem is and what craigix got upset about.

 

[Squidge]

Actually, I think it's pages 4 and 5, and I don't think Craigix likes being called a liar when he's only passing on information to keep people informed...

 

[Rayek]

Okay, you're pointing me to one dude calling him a liar. That hardly warrants an all-encompassing 'you', intended to envelop all those who actually want the source, but haven't done anything bad.

​

I must say that I immediately assumed that Cyclops was saying that GPH were lying to craigix. Clearly I can't be sure about that and obviously craigix didn't take it that way.

 

[abigsmurf]

I'd imagine it's a combination of these stupid threads, the emails, the phonecalls at godknows what hours...

I'd imagine it'd piss most people off, especially as it's not something he's responsible for nor can do that much to help

I also thought he was calling Craig a liar. It's stupid and all I think Craig is on our side, I don't think he is on Gameparks side.

 

[IntenseWage]

Wow, that thread was heavy-handed. Some people here need to lighten the fuck up. Go play a videogame or something.

 

[D.C.]

My thoughts exactly. It's all about the videogames man, the videogames!

 

[OmarNawaz]

snes with SOUND people screw the source when we get it we get it

justtt chiiiiillll good things come to those who wait
