Improvements for -isilox
It seems after all that there are other people using the -isilox or -misilox formats.
I was using -misilo for a couple of years (it uses the old isiloc instead of isiloXC) before switching to get the power of the latest isiloXC versions. One problem with using -isilox is that the tags for the .ixl file that isiloxc uses are hard coded in sitescooper. I recently worked on a fix for this - that lets you use your own .ixl file generated by the isiloX gui tool as a sort of template for sitescooper. Basically, if you want to change the image format options or category or so, you can simply create an ixl file and point to it with a tag in the .cf file. I posted this fix to the mailing list but noone has checked it in yet as far as I know. If there are any cvs-privileged sitescooper users out there - let me know if I should post this fix again. (Actually I'm thinking of switching to Plucker since it seems to be as good as iSilo now, and I dont want to pay for the upgrade to Isilo 4 - but I havent quite made the switch yet) |

I saw your recent post on the sitescooper mailing list. I have not yet had a chance to play with your modifications, but I like the idea. Perhaps you could post your mods again here, with some reasonably explicit instructions as to how people can modify their existing installs of sitescooper to use your new code? That would be great, thanks.

I cannot find that patch on the list http://sitescooper.org/pipermail/sitescooper-talk/, yes please post it here.
I solved that problem with a simple patch: so I get my resolution and color of the pictures. # diff Main.pm.orig Main.pm 2435,2437c2435,2437 < <Dither value="yes"/> < <MaximumWidth value="224"/> < <MaximumHeight value="198"/> --- > <Dither value="no"/> > <MaximumWidth value="315"/> > <MaximumHeight value="315"/> 2441c2441 < <BitDepth4 value="include"/> --- > <BitDepth4 value="exclude"/> 2443c2443,2445 < <BitDepth16 value="exclude"/> --- > <BitDepth16 value="include"/> > <LossyLevel value="all"/> > <LossyQuality value="75"/> Quote:

Rhubarb, hope you don't mind, but I took the liberty of zipping up all the files that you posted on the sitescooper list and posting them here. I have also included the original posting from the mailing list as a sort of defacto instruction set. Still have not tried this. (I spent the weekend experimenting with Plucker, but I think that I'm coming back to iSilo now.) Hope to get to it soon, and will report back once I have.

These changes have been checked in to the latest Sitescooper bleeding edge. Here's the mail from the Sitescooper mailing list. This looks like good stuff and worth the iinvestigating. Thanks Chris!
