20000 forum users - Awesome Special Event!

I’m also not sure who the user anon19508339 used to be

Just found out that the username of my account must be admin in order for the API to work.

What’s even more annoying then that potential security issue is that the error message says Only Administrators can access the api even though the error has nothing to do with permissions and everything to do with the username of the account

That was really frustrating

When you delete your forum account, it defaults your username to anon123456789, with the numbers being randomly generated

That particular user went by the name BayoDino, who was a long-time moderator here

Somehow a piece of code got deleted from one of the functions in ladybug that handles red bonus letters causing it to malfunction sorry

I have just rewritten the missing code and its working fine

I think I may have been half way through trying something and then fell asleep
The next day I would have forgotten about it and the broken code ended up getting pushed to github on the next build :frowning:

It’s fixed now and as always its playable from the jsbeeb emulator on my website thats linked to the latest build on github

I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to play an external .flv stream on an infinityfree webpage ?

I can’t seem to find any players that support flv

here is an example live stream flv url

the link above works with vlc but I would like to be able to play on a webpage

There’s the one from Jumpshare which lets you embed the video on webpages. I also found flv.js which is open-source and *self-hostable, but it hasn’t been maintained in a few years. The demo seems to work right now though, and there’s a fork of it made for FLV streaming called mpegts.js. which still seems to be actively developed (the last release was in April of last year, but the repository is still being updated).

*flv.js is written in Javascript and everything is handled client side, so it should still run on InfinityFree with no major issues. However, there’s no guarantee it’ll continue to work for the foreseeable future unless it continues to receive updates again.

Chrispar’s birthday is in 2 days - he hasn’t been here for a long time, although I see that he is “recently” active on GitHub and byet

And judging by his settings, he probably won’t even know that we congratulated him, but we will do our part even if he doesn’t come.

Hmm, but why is BayoDino not on this forum anymore?

Moved on to doing more fun things in life :joy:

Got it!

Haven’t been active lately because college + I’m lazy :laughing:

When I check the forum, I’ll try to answer some questions though. Gotta do something to give back to the IF community!

Yes, I’m still alive lol. But I’ve gone through a big change in my life (for the better, ofc), so things are quite different now.

Happy birthday @ChrisPAR!

I’m the first one to have remembered what Oxy said, so I delivered! I’m also going to give him a happy birthday on Discord in case he doesn’t get active on here…

Oh, and since I checked on Discord and found another birthday for today: happy birthday @EdwardHamHam!

I recently wrote some basic self playing demo code for my ladybug game
https://lovebyte.eu.org/jsbeeb-main/?autoboot&noseek&disc=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LoveBug2084/LadyBug/main/src/Lady%20Bug.ssd

And earlier today I had a go at adding something to make it play a little better but what I ended up with is a terrible glitched mess

If you want to see the mess then try this link, once it loads press K for a keyboard game and then leave it alone
After about 22 seconds the demo will start and the madness will begin :stuck_out_tongue:

New website design, new layout and a lot of small details :heart_eyes_cat:
Approximately 100 hours of work

That’s why I was away for a few days :innocent:

You’ll need ctrl + F5 :joy:
