Re: otrDB Brainstorming

Wild West Designs
 

I will post that when the repo goes live.  Plans for that are this weekend.  I'll just post the link to the release section and all anyone would need to do is download the zip file that they would need for their OS (it is like Otter, it is portable, just extract, drop where you want all the files to be and click on the executable).  I'll have them ready for Linux and for Windows.  Due to restrictions of the Mac ecosystem, I will not be able to have those pre built for Mac, but anyone that is willing would be able to take the source code and build it themselves for Mac.

If anyone is familiar and/or willing to do that on Mac is more then willing to upload that to the repo (or send me a copy of program to do that) and I'll make it available there for Mac users.

Hi! 

Is there a link to the app?  Apologies if I am being dense.

Right now, I have: 20th Century Radio, Amazing Tales, Antioch OTR, Audio Noir, Crime Time, Crime USA, Hank's Gumshoe, Hank's OTR, Hank's Westerns, MPIR Comedy, MPIR OTR, OTR Fan, OTR Now, and OTR USA

If there are any others let me know.

I did make the player a dockable/floating widget instead of it's own window.

The other thing that I wanted to try to brainstorm is what about having links or bundle in research material, scripts etc? This would only be stuff that is freely available, just consolidated (and curated) in one spot?

And if anyone has or can suggest such material that would fit that criteria, let me know.

This is just brainstorming, hoping to add some more functionality to the program.

I'm going to see about doing an official release build over the weekend and I'll post up the new repo links. This will take over the other versions that I was working on while trying to see which would be the best way to do the program.

This will be open source like the others, so if anybody would like to contribute, either to the content that is in the program or to code of the program, please let me know.

If anyone has any other ideas for functionality let me know. Might take awhile as I'm still learning the language, but I'll see what I can do.
