Otter Browser Forum / Re: a major crush
its 09.99 rc 12

flickering yes, it indicates exactly that, but my tabs were choked hence the force kill

also where do you set this "per site" JS settings
i only find global one

Otter Browser Forum / a major crush
now, i won't call this a Otter bug, but rather maybe how Otter handles JS

/spoiler ahead, "illegal" site in question

so the famous torrent site in this case, not for advertising purpose
but check what it does, they have imposed advert popup everytime you click on a link
then it counts down to what ? ... maybe 10 seconds, to "acknowledge" you clicked on it
and now you can click on any movie title... (during those 10 seconds)

then they re-enable this annoying advert re-direct again
-----

since im primary using Waterfox which is Gecko 52 based, this isn't issue
as browser just makes a pop-up window, and you can close it
BUT
Otter on other hand for some reason constantly reloads this ad-redirect link
thus freezes both primary and secondary tab/window, and your only choise is to force kill app
again, i write this not to complain on Otter, but rather that Emdek and who-ever also does the coding
checks what the F is going on there,

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Emdek, forget about Qt!
you constantly repeat "on updated OS"
this just leads to constant tracking what MS and Apple fucked up on their side
which is not Emdeks job or anyone elses...

who ever makes Webkit port to QT, its theirs responsibility for max compatibility

Otter Browser Forum / Re: 184 bugs and nags
it downloads the file (any) completely
but it crashes on those 99.9 %
path doesn't matter
nor architecture
nor apparently NT version

but if its Windows only, then its easier for you to locate the problem

Otter Browser Forum / 184 bugs and nags
since I dunno when will 185 come out, ill put what 184 has ...

first off, I'm very happy how Otter progresses (every few months)

Bugs: - Win7 x64 // x64 Otter build
1. ANY download/transfer, when comes to 99.9% CRASHES - ALWAYS
2. Transfer window/tab, CANT resize 1st column while other ones can
3. while opening magnet link, there is no association (doesn't read system values)
4. unable to save ANY site with its contents (css, js), but just plain/alone xHTML
5. most HTML-5 codecs are missing (check html5.com)


Missing:
1. would be nice to have a button that would add page/tab to speed dial (just like you can bookmark a page)
2. some internal crash log generator, as apparently Otter chooses to crash without any crash log or error or even system error for Event Viewer
3. right click on tab for: close tabs to left/right
4. when image is in web site, right click to open image in current tab

Otter Browser Forum / Re: disgusting look...
err simply put it in preferences dialog just like "content" of fonts and page look is stiffed there...
you can simply add 1 dropdown list with "icon style" and link it to either cfg or ini file to read entries from //path/to/icons

some years later, if any skinning will exist, you can just expand upon that...
35
Otter Browser Forum / Re: disgusting look...
why not simply leave both styles, or whatever more you will have later
make user choose

this way one downloads something cemented in, and its plain ugly
and people run from ugly :P

Otter Browser Forum / Re: v166 bugs
wow, i just encountered bunch of minor bugs
auff

but problem is they are so random, it cannot be reproduced ...

- now when i ran Otter (for 1st time), entered to test your bookmark theory, yahoo.com
the bookmark button was disabled completely even if page was loaded
then it got enabled only when I pressed New Tab button

- also bookmark "deletion" didn't crash anything, could well possibly be tied to webpage type ?

- then to reproduce reload bug, now it worked ok... on same pages that didn't work before
and suddenly Otter crashed for no reason
(i'll write the log down)

- then to reproduce zoom bug,
a) it resets it self when using wheel click for "open in new tab"

b) at the same time zoom slider/zooming is doing its work as does tab switching
if you hold right click and use wheel up/down, so you have 2 "jobs" working at same time, this could be another
conflict ... who knows

- the yahoo images problem, is "fixed" if user does refresh on page, then the image appears

-------
as for your proposal, I can only do random testing of Otter
I know nothing about any coding ...

Otter Browser Forum / Re: v166 bugs
not start page, but already bookmarked page
doesn't matter if its done via right click or via button DEL

no sorry its random for zoom

also masking as chrome doesn't help for yahoo images

also there is a bug when you STOP loading a page
then hit RELOAD button, nothing happens

btw, is it possible for you to add a "object/control" that like in opera would show
the value of current zoom level ?
so it can be attached on toolbars ?

Otter Browser Forum / v166 bugs
on x64 (win 7), when removing a bookmark from the list of saved ones, Otter simply freezes and has to be forcefully killed
bookmark doesn't get removed

also, often otter doesn't apply "set zoom" from preferences, as in I put it on 126%, but randomly
when new tab button is pressed, or when toolbar buttons are added/removed (customization)
the zoom level goes back to 100%

also if you go to yahoo images and choose any from gallery, for some reason Otter doesn't
show preview in "slide mode" (when chosen), tho this could be more of javascript or qtweb related

Otter Browser Forum / Re: bugs
v140 win7 x64, youtube lags like hell on html5 video, even on worst 240p
page zoom setting doesn't apply on newly opened tabs, one has to drag slider manually
45
Otter Browser Forum / Re: bugs
weekly 138, win x64
no settings are being saved/remembered

verry disapointing where otter is going...
some rudimentary stuff ain't working
46
Otter Browser Forum / Re: bugs
i think thats coz of zoom settings
clear type disabled would show blurry font, this one is crisp just thin
47
Otter Browser Forum / Re: bugs
you don't, its internal bug...

another bug i'd like to add is - HOW THE F do I enable flash for youtube ?
as it always forces HTML5 video ??? and chews 80% of my dualcore cpu

also html5 is broken on webkit version of otter, only ~15% of screen is visible and on "HD" option it cannot be fullscreened

another annoyance is when downloading anything, browser should PAUSE before user accepts download
but it doesn't, it auto downloads files, hello viruses !

another annoyance, whatever zoom you give for web pages
same zoom applies to source code editor - hello terrible view !

Otter Browser Forum / Re: Get involved in Otter
ok, so heres the thing:

ones with QTWebEngine are Blink based and highly unstable
while those without it are WebKit based and stabler (as in... don't crash as much)

(you can check this on Help -> About Otter, it will say what it uses)
who it would be nice to properly label these on DL links
49
Otter Browser Forum / Re: Get involved in Otter
emdek can you please clarify something for me....

what is the difference between -weekly-xxx-qtwebengine and just -weekly-xxx ?
do these 2 use different engine (webkit vs blink) and which one is ... better ?
