  • My tech skills are rusting horribly but I tried to briefly take a look at this…

    I’m seeing the same behavior with the Firefox save-as file extension being .m4a vs the displayed URL showing .mp3.

    Opening either extension in VLC and viewing the codec info (Tools->Codec Info / Ctrl+J) shows the actual encoding to be ‘MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a)’.

    I didn’t try grabbing a file from the torrent, but if I use the media tab in Firefox ‘Page Info’ (Ctrl+I) to “save as” the embedded IA player file it suggests a matching .mp3 extension with the displayed address (but the codec is still mp4a).

    The main thing I’m not following is what you mean by having parse errors in Mp3tag. So far I haven’t seen any metadata included in either the .mp3 or .m4a downloads (I only tested the first file), they both play audio fine, and if I browse to their directory in Mp3tag (vers. 2.57) it doesn’t seem to show anything unusual to me (empty metadata, no error/alert messages). What exactly is the parse error or how is it behaving differently from what’s expected?


    I also just wanted to say “THANK YOU!” for an awesome support post. You posted it to the right community, gave it a short but very descriptive title, gave lots of info about what you’ve tried and the results you’ve experienced – and did so politely :)




  • Does a low resolution desktop capture of someone slowly and sloppily typing messages for the viewer into notepad count as text-based?

    How about a gigantic compressed image of mostly plain text attached to a post that requires an account to download files? Maybe also with a colored/patterned background to make trying to print the monstrosity even more fun.

    Or maybe actual embedded text, but served via 300 MB of bloated libraries and fonts and a script that disables right-clicking and text selecting.

    I’ve had a cheap picture very similar to this for a long time. Unless the original artist used a pseudonym I’m assuming it’s an unlicensed knockoff. Signature looks like “Jons/Jones[?] 91.” I won’t link to it, but I found an eBay listing for it and the seller said they won it at an amusement park so that’s probably where I got mine.

    Sorry for low-quality scan, tried to fix blurriness but no luck so far.



  • I can’t remember if I stumbled across it at a video store or caught it on cable or something, but even though I was a KitH fan I had no idea they were making a movie. Absolutely love it though and even with familiar elements and some returning characters it didn’t feel like just a rehash of the show. I was bummed to learn (from the 2022 “Comedy Punks” documentary) that they were totally miserable making it and there was bad blood between Dave and everyone else.
