Bug report
After downloading images and with the browser sitting idle in slideshow mode, it uses almost all the CPU - seems like some loop. Restarting the browser in slideshow mode does not have this problem. Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but a quick search of the topic didn't show it. Version 1.0 Java 2 1.5.0.10 Win98SE -------------------- |

Wow, this program is great for casual Mars Rover observers. I mostly work on Titan and the Saturnian system and have no time to make anaglyphs and color images from the Rover images. This is a great way to automate this so that people who don't have to the time can enjoy the experience.
Thanks!! -------------------- &@^^!% Jim! I'm a geologist, not a physicist!

Thanks volcanopele, it was certainly the casual observers (such as myself) that I had in mind. Maybe someday there'll be a mission that returns as much imagery from Titan as we're currently getting from Mars; that would be something else. What a strange place!

Oh, and I almost forgot to mention: yuriwho wins the icon contest, since his uses transparency. His icon is used in the OSX version now. Thanks, yuriwho!

I just downloaded and used 1.0.1, and it has many of the features I was hoping for. Thanks, and congratulations. I didn't really have any problems with 1.0, but I didn't try to download the entire image set, just a few hundred megs. One of these days I'll take the laptop to work and grab the whole set.
I can't wait for 1.1. I am happy to read that you are already working on some of the other things at the top of my wish list. I am still downloading the images directly to a thumb drive via the fast connection at work, and then copying the directories to my machine at home. That is so nice. I know I should invest the time saved on my wife and family, but now I find myself engrossed with Cassini and other missions. Is that a mistake? -------------------- ...Tom

1.0.1 is working well here with Java 2 1.5.0.10 and Win98SE. no sign of the looping and the new clipboard and run features are really helpful. thanks!

I keep getting: Scanning http://qt.exploratorium.edu/mars/opportunity/forward_hazcam/ java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect; retrying... java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect; retrying... java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect; retrying... Tried 4 times; terminating. We do have a 'border manager' proxie that requires a signon (I was signed on), but there may be some other security issue...doh! I'll try from home later... Eric P / MizarKey That's interesting... I'm guessing it must be something to do with the proxy. I'm wondering if you can get to qt.exploratorium.edu in IE and if so if there's some special settings in IE for the proxie. Maybe there's something I'd have to do in the MMB connection attempt to specify the proxy, I'll have to see what I can find out about it. You don't need to tweak it for me...probably just get me in trouble at work anyway... I am interested in modifying the anaglyph setting, how did you determine the default? Also, I'd be interested in being able to regenerate anaglyphs after modifying the settings - without redownloading the raw images and with writing over the previously generated images. It's an excellent program and I thank you deeply! Eric P / MizarKey I changed my mind...if you can look into adding a proxy access I would much appreciate it. My office uses Novell Border Manager and we use our Network sign on id with a different password to access the internet. I sign on before attempting to access the midnight browser app, but it can't get past the proxy for some reason. When I update the AdAware program I have to set the proxy information each time within AdAware. Great program though, I have been successful using it at home. -------------------- Eric P / MizarKey
