check if you trusted the fingerprint of your Gajim device

Hello

Why can't I join this room from my 404.city account? When I try to join, I get the error "Stream closed by peer unsupported stanza type". I am using the Gajim 1.7.3 client on Debian Bookworm.

you need to ask that the 404.city admins

as you are the first and only user reporting this and we have here 400 people joined, i would assume its a problem on 404 side

Hello, is there any secure & simple way to convert a 1.1.2 history to 1.7.3 (= other than install a specific gajim version ) ? Thanks

puh, i mean simply try to install the new version, and backup your database before

but thats a very old version

meson, about the media browser, what exactly do you have in mind there? Whats the problem we are solving?

Because when we store files in a separate folder per user, and have a single click to open that folder in the users system file explorer, thats a pretty pretty good media browser

thats what you are up against. Ask yourself how much code do we add here to get feature parity with a standard system file explorer, and how much code on top we need to make something that can be considered additional value

and now you cannot go back to 1.1.2?

can you try installing sqlbrowser

and check if you can open the database with that application?

> thats what you are up against. Ask yourself how much code do we add here to get feature parity with a standard system file explorer, and how much code on top we need to make something that can be considered additional value Alright, I give it up. ↺

It was not my intention that you give it up, i just want to challenge if it has enough value.

I didnt see any discussion or idea about that other than the word Media Browser, where everyone understands probably something different

What i see as a problem we need to solve is, I want to see all files i received from a particular contact. Because i remember i received something, and i need to find it

One benefit from having such a list in the client, rather than opening a folder in the file explorer, could be that i see metadata that was sent with the file, like a description (which you can add in the newer FT XEPs), and also that i could jump to the point in the conversation where i received that file

also there could be some easy forwarding mechanism

plus default sorting by date or whatever the preference is vs. what any file explorer does with a newly opened folder and categorizing of received files -> documents, images, videos, links

having this concentrated in a media browser, tied to a contact, seems much better than just opening a folder where everything is stuffed into

Sorry I maybe have prematurely closed the MR without a proper response, I just got annoyed by many things currently not being related with any of the discussion here. I go with cal0pteryx argumentation. I'll re-open, we can discuss the topic another time again or I will simply wait for your feedback, when you have decided in what direction you wanna go - I'm around. ✏

thanks meson!

btw, I've just tested the `analyse_gif_image` method with a webp from giphy: extraction of frames (jpeg/jfiff) work, getting the duration does not. ✏

^ here's the source for playing around: https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/8a62947323fc

but they stuff like this in the changelog

Round duration when saving animated WebP images

so they support animated webp images

maybe we should just make a bug report

hmm wait do we need the duration even? wht does the duration tell us? how fast we need to play the images?

The duration tells us the fps in the end I'd say

> The display duration of each frame, in milliseconds.

Frame time then

I've opened 3 webp giphy files in gimp: it tells me that the duration lies around 60-66 ms

For these 3 at least

Roughly 15-16 fps

Maybe we can just go with that and hope it fits for most or all.

Or maybe not, there also ones with 40 ms. We should find a way to get the duration in order not to play too fast or slow

yes, its weird pillow knows that its animated, that there are multiple frames

but the duration is not set

Nvm my bad, you have to query the durarion for each single frame:

https://paste.opensuse.org/pastes/ad30913ca54d

That works ^

damn

i just found that too :D

😆

because seems each frame can have its own

Exactly

For the frame size you got to add +1 to each dimension ✏

Ah wait, no

frames with different duration.. I remember that from stop motion experiments with GIFs way back

meson about the media browser, lets think about what media there are and what we want to even consider. And also what GUI i would expect for which type of media. in my mind it would have to be some kind of dialog that lets you switch between different media types and has a different GUI depending on the media type. For example for pictures this could be the common image gallery style. But for PDFs i would expect a simple list kind of style, also at some point we probably want to get a list of URLs exchanged in the chat. So maybe something with a side bar where you can switch between the media types. Then i wonder if we want this to be a dialog, or integrated into the main window. I would probably lean on separate dialog.

and then this dialog needs some elaborate lazy loading, because we cannot read 500 images from the harddisk, just at opening the dialog

meson, do you have a mockup of what you had in mind for a media browser?

cal0pteryx: Only in my mind so far. lovetox i'm already half sleeping, I will come back to it tomorrow.

> can you try installing sqlbrowser > > and check if you can open the database with that application? lovetox: thx for your answer, I installed sqlitebrowser and i can open the db

Since it's late I would understand if you prefere to continue tomorrow (i am a bit myself sleepy)

yeah ping me tomorrow

OK, thx
