Thanks but I am not interested in workarounds. Either the forum editor is able to process code syntax in the dedicated code block or it is simply unusuable and crap.

There is another topic about IPC-banned syntax and how to work around it. And on Android, you do need a device with a screen wider than 800 pixels or the inline editor won't display all edit buttons. (There used to always be a button to open a full-featured editor, but that is long gone.)

@jumper Try the regular DOS command start with paramrter min and "" and cmd with slash c followed by ffplay -autoexit -vf subtitles=filename=\'"Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4"\' "Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4". I have to write this way as otherwise I get a 403 forbidden.

Many thanks @Reino for updating your forum signature, now being "My fileserver" ...

Thanks!

Chrome 103 on Chromebook tests: Font size <edited> changes only work in large, rough increments. Pre-link text, link: https://msfn.org/board/topic/187837-the-msfn-forum-editor-–-endless-errors/ and some post-link text. Batch file test: echo off echo This is a test... echo Edit Successful! C code test: /* Sample C code */ /* *** Edited! *** */ #include <windows.h> #include "extra.h" void startup (void) { // some code here ExitProcess (0); } Auto-indentation can be disabled by selecting No Syntax Highlighting. So far, I'm not seeing anything out of the ordinary. Will try editing here and on Android phone next.... What Android browsers are you testing with? Edit: no problems editing on Chromebook. Will try Android next.

Subject: Panda Dome I had a few brief issues with Panda Dome 22.03.05 today. The PSANHost.exe process crashed three times. A quick restart after clearing all temporary files, and everything is back to normal. The PSANHost.exe process, which is part of Panda Dome, is known for causing problems from time to time, but to use that as a reason to declare Panda Dome’s demise - as has been celebrated in another thread here - is completely unfounded and lacks any factual basis. Problems with this process often occur when updates are being downloaded in the background from the Panda server. And you don't have to reinstall Panda Dome right away. First, a thorough analysis is necessary. Anything else is just amateurish, unscientific chit-chat. Anyway! Panda Dome has been running completely normally again for hours.

Will say, Vista being broken was likely something completely unrelated, not NT 4's fault. It really just is 7 and NT 4 disliking each other. Unfortunately I don't believe I actually installed this OS. I used a winworld image. I don't believe that I would be able to install it as it won't understand the drives, as they are all greater than 131 GB. The same thing happens in the W2K installer, and it just corrupts the drive of any partition you ask it to install to or create. Unfortunately, the actual INF file for my disk driver is mostly nonfunctional as it is a universal ATA driver (and there is no floppy drive on my computer so pressing F6 to install a driver on startup is useless), so it has to be installed with the registry, but I cannot do that on my CDs as they are single write. I have DVDs that I can use, so I might try that, but I will be gone for the next 10 days ish and wont be able to continue working on the project till then. My question would be: If I just convert the partition to FAT16 (and shrink it since its ~10 GB right now), will the operating system still boot? A lot of things could go wrong there, like the drive letter being lost, the boot sector being removed, or critical files being located in different areas. I used macrium reflect's "fix windows boot problems" utility to make NT 4 boot in the past after copying the winworld image (I think?) so I wonder if that would work here. Anyway, thanks for all the help. I'll make a post on here after I've got a working FAT16 Install and have disabled the NTFS driver, hopefully fixing my issues. Again, thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it.

Ok. Thanks! This one is working again. So it seems it really was a subtitle issue. I suppose that was due to your "scaling down to basic" since it didn't occur in version 8.1. Anyway! I'm looking forward to your next releases and perhaps one day a "scaling up to standard".

As I wrote in Anti-virus topic - if you have Panda FreeAV, you'd better update these or PSANhost starts crashing repeatedly.

This should have the fix and it will be included in the next release as well. https://files.videohelp.com/u/69760/ffmpeg-8.2-2155-1836ef9684-win32-static-xpmod-P4.7z

The contents of the updroots.sst file have been changed; the contents of the other * .sst files are unchanged.

Panda Free AV (v21-22) is out it seems, constant crashes of PSANHost, it seems to be linked to opening Serpent 52.9... Oh well.

It's no longer even possible to enter simple, harmless DOS code in the forum editor. Not in the text area, not as a code block, and not as a quote. No longer a forum for coders who want to post their code, or must.

I know this reply is extremely late as the last post was in 2017, but I think it's important to know what those three buttons do. So I will explain below:- The first left button with the Plus icon This is to direct the user to the WUD website to download the latest update lists (.ulz). Since the website is no longer available, you will receive a error message. This will be fixed in the next release. The second middle button This is to refresh the Update Lists And finally, the third right button This will display a grid menu with all Update List(s) currently installed. With option to remove any of the Update Lists.

@autodidact When testing, please use this command: I think it is a problem showing the embedded subtitle in version 8.2 as the standard command without subtitle works: Maybe you can bring yourself to build your releases the way you always have in the past. BTW, the MSFN editor is such a piece of junk. To inject this code into my post, is an absolute nightmare. I had to simplify my command. MSFN seems to consider completely harmless DOS commands to be dangerous.

Unfortunately, the problem persists. I downloaded the video with same yt-dlp options once again. Same behaviour. Your ffplay.exe opens and immediately closes. Here is my suggestion. I'll send you a PM with a link to the video file, and you can test it in-depth on your system. Ok? If you need the yt-dlp log generated while downloading the video, do not hesitate to ask for it here.

Looks like they've fixed Vista problems with that patch and not Win7 (2009 was too late for that as it seems). Is it NTFS metadata handling or what? You can trust Microslop to break good things. If you are going to reinstall, make a 2GB (max.) FAT16 partition and try that. Install should look the same - It shall ask you if you want to convert FAT16 to NTFS. About handling boot loader stuff I wouldn't know.

I have finally managed to fix this audio issue in Firefox 15 (and later versions) browsers on Windows 98 FE. As previously mentioned, you need to switch to an audio card that uses WDM drivers (VxD is not compatible with any compatible OS) in the Multimedia settings before launching the browser. In addition, I also had to update the "KMIXER.SYS" file located in the "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS" folder to version "4.10.2222" (I haven't tested other versions yet). After updating this file and then rebooting, the sound works fine in all browsers (I tested it using an online video on YouTube.com). In addition, I also tested a simple USB audio card for just five euros, and surprisingly, Windows 98 FE found it and automatically installed all the necessary WDM drivers (it requested the Windows 98 FE installation CD during the process), and now, after replacing "KMIXER.SYS" with the above version, the sound works in all browsers with this USB audio card as well. So if you prefer VxD drivers and Windows 98\98SE\ME, you can also purchase a USB audio card specifically for browsers as an additional option. You can also try the new WDM driver for integrated audio solutions: https://msfn.org/board/topic/187713-native-wdm-hd-audio-driver-for-windows-98seme/

Theoretically, you should select device in VLC media player. Have you tried it?

Thanks for all your efforts! I'll test that when I'm back at my Windows XP computer.

That's why I thought you were using a static IP. But if you can get a new IP via power-cycling, then your IP is of course assigned dynamically, and, however, you are then also able to reconnect by different options, a reconnect tool, a self-created script or whatever. BTW, my reconnect batch file uses curl.exe, and my router can even be reconnected by an Android app. If you wonder why a reconnect is such important, the answer is easy. Once your current external IP is blacklisted by a website or service, you need to reconnect your router or establish a VPN connection and delete your cookies and cache logically first. This is, of course, age-old knowledge, and I’ve been doing it this way for decades. BTW, I never had any problems connecting to https://o.rthost.win.

I can't reproduce the problem. I downloaded the same video source and assets as yours and it played with my ffplay version 8.2-1568-b355200263-win32-shared. Here is a new basic static build for you to test to see if the problem persists. With the next release both static and shared builds will match, so ffplay will be in both. https://files.videohelp.com/u/69760/ffmpeg-8.2-2129-0dac41d2e5-win32-static-xpmod-P4.7z

No. S4OS is supported by Millenium only (and in OEM versions only AFAIK). 98 supports S4BIOS, but enabling this is not the OS task.

@roytam1: Weird that it works for you and @Skorpios but not me. Serpent 55 always brings up the captcha for me, left-click or right-click, and then doesn't pass the challenge. Maybe it is the user agent that Cloudflare is balking at, as @AstroSkipper suggested earlier. R3dfox also brought up the captcha, but I just pasted the URL, so there wouldn't have been a referer. That's probably why. (I know "referer" isn't the correct spelling, but it's how Mozilla spells it.) Bringing up MSFN in R3dfox, signing in, browsing to this thread, and then clicking one of the links might have worked, but I just wanted to get the file. R3dfox passed the challenge of course. Since my wget batch file is working again, it doesn't really matter to me now.
