Yesterday I plugged on my laptop a monitor. I set it up as a second screen, so
all the desktop effect were disabled, which I think is normal. But when I tried
to play a wmv video I didn't get any image just the sound. If I setup my 2
screens as clone and enable all the desktop effets then I can

Has anybody come across this? Why should I need destop
effects enabled to play wmv?
It's unlikely that you need desktop effects to play video, but very likely that
you need direct rendering to get either.
I have an intel 945 video card with medibuntu video codec.

1 is by far my favorite, then 6 and then 4.
I agree with the idea last night of a focus group though. It should mean
that potentail suggestions and design ideas will be a lot more organised.

What about good a good old English fry-up or fish and chips? Ok, I admit
it's lunchtime :)
Mockup #1 is the best, but I also feel the same, that it is a little too
commercial. What about going with the new official purple colour? Just a
thought.
Great work!! :)

The podcast team were sent a mockup for the podcast site by a listener
a while ago. In general we liked it, and the designer (without
prompting) went off and created an initial go at the html, css and so
on. I quite like it. He even redesigned our podcast logo, which is
pretty cool.
Hi Guys
Mockup 1 is in a different league to the rest. Far, far better.
I am inclined to agree that the London skyline does suggest big business,
because that kind of image has been used many times before to promote big
city corporations. The balance is to look professional, but without

I agree with all of that.

Hi
I was wondering if maybe we could have pictures of places from across
the UK?
Why not have a list on the Wiki of places people can take pictures of local
landmarks (CC-BY or PD licensed, of course) and then have a community vote as
to the best ones?
Just my 2 pence :)
