So put in a request to get the main DL application changed so that it can import a text file of ISBN numbers and process them by doing lookups against Amazon. To be honest, I'm surprised DL doesn't already have this functionality.

Then all you need is a barcode app for the iphone that can store the scanned barcodes in a text file that can be sent to a computer for processing.

What's the point of all these iphone client suggestions when there is no iphone client anymore? Don't you people read the entire thread before commenting?

I can't see DM using precious resources on this (and neither should they) until the issue with using Amazon data is resolved.

I'm guessing this only fixes the 32 bit issue.

Geoffrey replied on August 02, 2009 23:11 to the question "Snow Leopard support?" in ExpanDrive:

It appears to be a problem with MacFUSE in 64bit mode in SL according to what Jon logged to the MacFUSE google group. Not a lot can be done from the ExpanDrive side if the technology it uses doesn't work.

Jessie - I know. The reason I asked was to see if it had already been logged by Notary Sojac. When he mentioned FogBugz with question marks I realised he didn't know what I was talking about and as such it hadn't been logged.

The bug tracking system DL use as mentioned by Jessie before me.

Did the fuzzy thumbnails get logged in FogBugz?

Geoffrey replied on June 26, 2009 23:52 to the question "Snow Leopard support?" in ExpanDrive:

I've tried using the i386 kernel and also the x86_64 kernel in Snow Leopard

Trying to mount via sftp on the 32bit kernel returns

Jun 27 11:45:02 Cyclops ExpanDrive[200]: Traceback (most recent call last):\n File "expandrive/fs/sftpfs/Driver.py", line 220, in <module>
Jun 27 11:45:02 Cyclops ExpanDrive[200]: File "expandrive/fs/sftpfs/Driver.py", line 206, in main\n File "expandrive/fs/sftpfs/Driver.py", line 121, in start_sftpfs\n File "expandrive/fs/MagnetkFS.py", line 83, in make_mountpoint\nIOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/Volumes/My Grotto/ExpanDrive_README.txt'</module>

Doing the same with the 64bit kernel returns the following just opening Expandrive

Jun 27 11:47:35 Cyclops com.apple.kextd[10]: Failed to load /Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Support/fusefs.kext - (libkern/kext) link error.

Jun 27 11:48:03 Cyclops ExpanDrive[141]: MacFUSE could not be loaded into the kernel.

Geoffrey replied on June 14, 2009 21:13 to the question "Snow Leopard support?" in ExpanDrive:

After more investigation, it looks like there are problems with MacFUSE which I believe ExpanDrive uses.

I can't get sshfs mounting anything with the latest version of MacFuse. All I get is the following error:

/Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Support/fusefs.kext failed to load - (libkern/kext) link error;
check the system/kernel logs for errors or try kextutil(8).
the MacFUSE file system is not available (71)

Geoffrey asked a question in ExpanDrive on June 11, 2009 09:54:

Snow Leopard support?

No support for Snow Leopard yet?

Programme runs but nothing (sftp or ftp) mounts.

Geoffrey replied on May 04, 2009 07:36 to the idea "System Preferences Integration" in ExpanDrive:

I figured the Connect to server would be a no-goer.

As to my original request, all you're missing is the prefpane. You already have a command-line app available for the connect/eject of mounts.

Geoffrey shared an idea in ExpanDrive on May 04, 2009 06:59:

System Preferences Integration

Great app but what about dropping the current app and replacing it with a System PreferencePane and a background app/daemon.

Start/stop the daemon via the prefpane, set bookmarks via the PrefPane including keyboard shortcuts for connecting to the bookmarks, enable/disable the menu icon via the prefpane, Update/Register etc.

What about trying to enable sftp:// as a handler for use via the "Connect to Server..." dialog assuming that sort of thing is possible.

Geoffrey replied on February 19, 2009 18:37 to the problem "Bizarre sorting by title" in Delicious Monster:

Just tried sorting the language entries for both dvd's I have problems with in alphabetical order and it worked. The Bourne Supremacy now comes before The Bourne Identity.

My next questions is why the order of the language affects the sorting of the title. Surely it should base its sorting criteria based on the system language and not the language listed in the dvd details.

A comment on the problem "Bizarre sorting by title" in Delicious Monster:

Country is not the problem here as both DVDs are flagged as gb. – Geoffrey, on November 12, 2008 17:24

Geoffrey reported a problem in Delicious Monster on October 05, 2008 19:15:

Bizarre sorting by title

I've scanned 2 movies in, The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy. The Bourne Supremacy appears under the letter B when sorting by title and The Bourne Identity appears under the letter T.

Both DVDs were scanned in using Amazon UK data.

What do I need to do to get them both to appear under the letter B as they should?

I noticed this as well and it got so bad I had to disable the option to subscribe to my iTunes library.
