I would love for someone to step forward and maintain the Windows stuff. Life is *so* much harder on Windows where we have to do so much for ourselves, as opposed to the Linux packages where we just mark it as depending on perl, ffmpeg, rtmpdump etc., and everything "Just Works". And updates for packages like rtmpdump *also* happen properly, because there's a system-wide update mechanism that works. I've occasionally tried to keep it up to date, but fundamentally I just don't care about Windows. I'm never going to do a good job of it, and I only even *boot* Windows to test the installation, so I'm not a good person to do it. I'd be more than happy to 'hand over', and show someone how I got it working, and give them access to the FTP site so that they can keep things up to date (for example by testing newer versions of the various dependencies and adjusting the links to them, etc.) -- dwmw2 _______________________________________________ get_iplayer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/get_iplayer
