photoshop cs5 can save transparent png's fine, although i've never tried opening one with it. i save everything as psd and export what i need to use


Doesn't save opacity info properly, so it's still borked. There's ways around it, but not by default, so a little bit of a chore if you're creating ...

Isohunt.co has put up a bit of a bay skin to it...not as convenient though, nor is kickass, but they'll have to do.

And they're massively smaller than raw or TIF.

Though Adobe had for the longest time a bug that wouldn't see the transparent layer properly. Anyone know if that got fixed in the latest version?

Gotta have bacon and pickles....and a chilly mayo

Be good with some dried cranberries or raisins chucked in too...

Just read that the beeb seems to be mostly repeats and no new Donaldson animation this year

But yeah, hoping for some good comedy ones.

So are there any decent looking specials on the horizon?

What are folks looking forward to seeing this month?

I'm hoping there will be another Julia Donaldson adaptation as the kids loved the Gruffalo and the Room on a Broom that was done over the years.

Yeah, it seems that VLC is missing that web optimised option in the options. So it puts the header info at the end of the file, which is the cause of the problem as you can't stream them then.

I've now tried Freemake Video Convertor....both off of filehippo.com

It's not drag and drop though so a bit clunky to use and it's not nearly as past as AVC above but requires ...

The files play fine on the computer, they just don't stream via Serviio, or anything else to Upnp devices.

The Android app popped up a error message about a missing url info in the file.

Bit of googling and found AVC - https://www.any-video-converter.com/support/ had a option to "flatten" and move ...

That's another good one that's been doing the rounds.....food for a fiver a week kind of theme.

Lot of veg dishes, but worth a punt, some decent ideas in there.

My googling is failing for a answer, so perhaps you lot who play around with encoding files might have some idea.

Basically had some files that I used VLC to re-encode into mp4 format, does a great job, much smaller files. Plays on the computer fine.

Serviio as a DNLA server to stream the content ...

Playing around with a few, but always looking out for more.

Hola Unblocker is a good desktop plugin for browsers, with scripts to work for BBC iPlayer, but it's rubbish on Android.

Expat Shield, hit or miss but currently working on Windows desktop for BBC, but has a lot of advertising ...
