Well, this is the first time someone is talking about this kind of problem... I don't think though, that it is a module's job to manage the brandwith. Is'nt this more a server side aspect? ![](https://xoops.org/uploads/smil42e7a42768aef.gif)
This cant be done in most cases from the servers, most of the XOOPS based sites are hosted on pay to use or free to use providers, not on the local servers.
This was created in CMS module, but cant remeber the name of this CMS, limitation of bandwith for single or group of downloads.
@Solo:
Err... Didn't knew that such module were existing? Isn't this kind of stuff managed by the media itself.
Yeah this module doesnt exist for XOOPS, here is the challenge someone to build it as patch for the one of the existing modules.
@Solo:
I don't think it's necessary to use (censored) words here.
Better to be censored :)
@francis
We all have different approaches what might be useful for a module and this is GOOD.
And cos of this I cant see here the founder of XOOPS 1.xxx, no offence Mith
@francis
If I understand you correctly debaser is not useful to you. I guess others share this opinion. So I will bury my project right now!
Ok, let's change it, it's usefull sometimes, but the situation with this thousands of modules is not good, Debaser 0.92 at the moment is used as Radio Re-transmiter, cos some Bulgarian (f-censored) radiostation limits their access only for residental IP's, eg. Bulgarian citizens can listen BG radio, USA citizens cant (or in my case, Bulgarians who lives in Malta), Debaser sometimes (on some servers works with re-downloading MP3 (Bulgarian Artists to Bulgarian ppl which lives out side bg, and cant get bg ip)
For showing movies RealVideo currently debaser works only, but can u imagine how much TB I have to convert to Real from DivX ?
And again "not usefull" means that cant be used as multimedia manager, at the moment Debaser (more compatible to Linux/Mac users, and I have no opinion to switch to another), MyMedia is something between SmartMedia and Debaser (very early alpha), this QuickTime is the only one Software not very compatible with GNU and BSD, so dont force users to use Windows for server, or even Mac. SmartMedia is a great disapoiment to me, I expect more than this, all other modules are great, but this ....
@francis
To tell you the truth: I am NOT a programmer (earning my money with something else and far better in this job), I just made this for FUN.
Hah, for non-programmer - very good work, not exellent, but very good.
Yeah most of the OpenSource developers works somewhere else and XOOPS and Nuke are only for FUN....
@Solo:
"C'mon Francis. We don't do all this to please people..."
Than for what, to show something can be done, and to abandon it, such as most projects on dev.xoops.org - newbb2.0.2
@davidl2
Grrrr - some people are never happy are they?
It's not like u said, but some ppl prefer to do their jobs with only one CMS, not like some reports from Chinese community - 7 XOOPS for one site, cos of nature of XOOPS - cant support MultiLanguage, or XOOPS for News, Nuke for Downloads, XOOPS 1 cos a Forge nature, eXponnent for startup page, cos is really modular only for one site ...
@david12
Both modules are excellent - and I appreciate the hard work that you both put into them.
Both are 3 at the moment :)
@francis: No, I do it for honor and fame!
Yes, we all here do it for fun, honor and glory...
@solo:
Keep it up, Francis! Or who am I going to challenge otherwise (surely not Marcan's ones, he is out of category)?
Keep both of you even and Marcan, but in the right way - do u remeber Stampede Linux, Stormix Linux, Red Flag, E-XOOPS, H_Xoops and a lot of more which moto was the same as XOOPS - Powered by you, or Builded from ppl to ppl, from users to users, where you will be heared etc, etc. all of them are dead now, buried in History.
