i installed djv ( specifically djv_0.7.2-pre1-2_i386.deb on a ia32 debian sid chroot running on an ubuntu dapper(64) on x86_64 )
i don't seem to get my preferences saved ( or i cannot find easy where to do that ), so if you can point me to, it'll be nice.

nice features , nice free software, i've used iridas framecycler for quite a long time, and am happy with djv's options.
i cannot get realtime playing (tried sgis and jpgs) if i use the zoom

i just installed it an hour ago, so don't take my reply as nothing more than an ancouragement.
good work!

nice to see one good gpl'ed flipbook software
cheers!

The preferences should save automatically; they are stored in your home directory like:
~/.fltk/djv-0.7.2-pre1/
Could you see if that directory exists and has a couple files like "djv_view.prefs" and "global.prefs"?
(Normally you don't ever need to edit those.)

ok
that was my fault.i had some issue with my permissions, now it's all ok and working.
thanks

Thanks! If you have any suggestions for other features, please let me know,

mm
i think it'll be nice to zoom with the mouse ... just like that ctrl+mouse click to move , but zooming when using another mousebutton.
(dunno if i explained myself , not native english speaker)

Can you give me some information about what kind of hardware you're using? Generally zooming in should go faster because there's not as much to draw.


well, i think it's due to cache size.
i'm playing a sequence of sgis, with a total of ~50MB
it seems i need to set the cache on in order to feel it play smoothly.

but if i zoom in , i get a non_smooth playback again ( with 2048 in cache size )
i am running ubuntu gnu/linux on a dual core opteron with 8Gb of RAM.
i run djv in a chrooted debian sid inside that ubuntu

thanks for your time!


hehe, licenses ..
nice work!

hi again!
i was setting the hotkeys to my usual ones, and i noticed i cannot set space as a hotkey (i usually have space for start stop playback)
i wonder if there's an easy way to set it directly into the preferences file so i can use my usual hotkeys
thanks again for the nice program!
:)

I just uploaded a new version that fixes this; "Spacebar" is now a valid hotkey (you'll have to type the whole word), and I've made it so you can toggle playback with it:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfile ... _id=118244
(It's version 0.7.4-pre2 at the bottom of the page.)

Let me know how it works for you...

Thanks, Darby


thanks for the fast reply(again)
it works smoothly, and even works as a toggle (play-stop)
thanks again for the nice application, it has become my primary flipbook program

the only thing i would ask is that the zoom_with_the_mouse feature has small intervals between zooms.. i.e. using the mouse to drag and having the zoom connected o that drag movement to adjust exactly the zoom level easily.
hehe
thanks again!

hi there!
i'been trying to playback some sequences i rendered and i have just noticed it seems djv needs the padding to be just before the file extension to work
i.e. i have a bunch of render.00**.OCC.tif that djv fails to understand as a sequence ( render.00**.tif goes ok, of course )
will this request give you a buch of headaches?
thanks!
