no such file to load -- gettext (LoadError)

Hi,

I am using Debian wheezy. I haven't used booh recently, but when I tried
starting it today I got following error:

martian <at> mdimitr-laptop:~$ booh

Booh crashes when trying to edit any label


Hello everyone :)

Recently I found booh to be very suitable for my needs, but I have a
critical problem to discuss here with you. I guess the it would be
possible to fix it by changing some ruby package version, but you should
be aware of this issue and suggest resolution if possible.

Problem description: When gallery is created successfully and I decide
to change any label of album name or single picture name (rether then
leave the defaults that are directory names or file names) - immediately
after I click on the box and press any key booh crashes and following
messages are displayed in console:

martian <at> mdimitr-laptop:~$ booh

removed on or after 2011-10-01.

upcoming 0.9.4

I want to release 0.9.4, with in particular a new theme which makes
other themes pretty dumb in comparison - demo at
http://booh.org/themes/gradient/

If you want to test:

http://booh.org/packages/booh-0.9.3.99.tar.bz2
http://booh.org/packages/booh-0.9.3.99-0.1.20060mdk.i586.rpm
http://booh.org/packages/booh-0.9.3.99-0.1.20060mdk.src.rpm

If you want to sync your translation, that would be beautiful.

Changes from 0.9.3:

    update to flowplayer 3.2.7
    support widescreen 1680x1050
    booh-classifier: on failure to cp/mv, propose to continue or to
continue to all these errors (case of not real failure of not
preserving ownership)
    fix crash on some strange data from Pentax device, thanks Harald Lenz
    avoid crashing on undetected video thumbnail size (that can e.g.
happen especially when video file has been removed/renamed behind our
back)
    add gradient theme from Benoit Dien
    unroll gdk_pixbuf_get_width and gdk_pixbuf_get_height for much,
much faster rendering
    put script and meta refresh in <head> in preferred size reloader (dillo)
    support ruby 1.9

How to uninstall ruby-xxx packages ?

Hello,

Booh requires ruby packages. But I always have problems to install these 
packages or to make booh running. So I have to try several packages.

How to remove a package (ruby-gettext / gnome2 / gems ...) ?
ruby setup.rb uninstall does not exist...

Thanks

invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII) (SyntaxError)

Hello,

today, I installed Arch Linux on my computer. Unfortunately, there is
no package for this distro, so I installed booh manually. I followed
exactly the instructions in the INSTALL file.

However, when starting Booh, I have many error messages, the first one
beeing « invalid multibyte char (US-ASCII) (SyntaxError) ». See
attached text file for details. 

As for the software versions, since Arch Linux is a rolling distro, I
guess I have the latest versions of all the dependencies.

I would be glad if someone would have a clue on what’s going on. 

Thanks !

Theora encoding for videos

Hello,

now that I am working a bit more seriously on how I should encode my
videos, I came into Theora.

I would like to be able to encode the videos that are in a web album to
the ogg container in theora/vorbis format. As far as I know, mencoder
cannot transcode a video to the theora/vorbis couple (or at least I
didn't get how :/)

Is it possible to do that in Booh ? 

If not, I would suggest adding the possibility in the interface to
chose which program shall do the transcoding, in which case I could use
ffmpeg2theora for example.

Have a nice WE !

first class videos support

Hi,

As lately I've been using Facebook a little more, I've tried to use
Facebook to upload some photos and videos for friends. I think
overally it sucks a lot, however there is something which is way
better than booh: the fact videos are played with an embedded flash
player (I know this is not super hot news, and blogger and the like
already do that for ages, but I've never realized the potential for
booh, and I think I also was slown down by the fact flash is not open
source). So I've found a nice free software flash video player,
http://www.flowplayer.org/ and I've modified booh to be able to
(optionally) generate flash videos (with ffmpeg - doh, yet another
dependency!) and use flowplayer. The result is quite nice IMHO. Check
for example the video in that album:

http://booh.org/themes/dark/Home/

As a side effect, I've modified the fullscreen view mode of booh to
show videos as well as photos (since I've observed we miss videos if
we switch to fullscreen view when beginning to view an album).

That new feature is uploaded in the git tree.

PS: and flowplayer works with older flash versions than facebook video player :)

gettext issue

Hi all, I've a problem with gettext issue with booh.
With 9.1 only when creating new albums, with 9.2.2 just at startup
I can recall to have solved this issue by patching a file in one of the ruby packages but right now I can find
again the patch that I've applied or where.

The error is the following:
cova <at> calvin ~ $ booh
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/booh/booh-lib.rb:27:in `require': no such file to load -- gettext (LoadError)
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/booh/booh-lib.rb:27
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/booh/GtkAutoTable.rb:22:in `require'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/booh/GtkAutoTable.rb:22
        from /usr/bin/booh:28:in `require'
        from /usr/bin/booh:28

Ruby gettext is installed (2.1.0)

Generated album too big for firefox ?

Hello,

I generated last evening using Booh 0.9.2 a web album of about 140
pictures. It all went fine until I tried to view it.

There is no problem with the thumbnail view. However, when I click on a
picture to display it full screen with its comment … that's the end of it.

Locally, on my weak computer, firefox just goes 100% of the processor and
I have to kill it after some time.

I tried this morning from another much more powerful computer, accessing
the web album from the internet this time. Firefox didn't go crazy but two
unpleasant things happened :

- it took a longggggg time to load ;
- once all the pictures were loaded, it never managed to display any. It
just kept saying « Loading image, please wait … ».

It seems that if there are too much pictures in one album, the detailed
view doesn't work.

I tried another smaller album, and except the too long time it took to
load (due to the fact that all the pictures are loaded on the first view),
it worked fine !

This brings me to three questions/thoughts :

- is there any way to only preload a part, or even none of the pictures in
the detailed view ?
