Thanks for the response. </p> http://www.usefulfruit.com/forums/topic.php?id=8#post-20 Mon, 06 Oct 2008 22:54:40 +0000 c-had 20@http://www.usefulfruit.com/forums/ <p>Thanks for the compliments and the great comments. I'll address them in order:</p> <p>1. I'll hopefully be able to do this soon. Pear Note (like most audio/video apps) actually uses QuickTime under the hood for recording and playback. The betas of Pear Note actually had 640x480 as an option, but I discovered a bug in QuickTime that caused the app to crash after 10 minutes or so when recording at this resolution. I've been working with the QuickTime team to get it fixed, but I don't want to enable it until they've issued a fix.</p> <p>2. You can actually do this now. If you hover over the video/slides section you should get a tooltip telling you how to do it. All you have to do is double-click the video/slides and they'll pop out into a window of their own.</p> <p>3. There actually are slides shortcuts, which you can see in the tooltip if you hover over the Prev/Next buttons. They are Cmd-Opt-Up and Cmd-Opt-Down, respectively.</p> <p>4. I've been thinking about this a lot. This is actually one of the main reasons the Back button exists. I like your interface idea of making a configurable amount of time in the past to start playing at. I'll play with it and see what I can do.</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Chad Sellers </p> http://www.usefulfruit.com/forums/topic.php?id=8#post-19 Mon, 06 Oct 2008 20:36:05 +0000 adn 19@http://www.usefulfruit.com/forums/ <p>Thank you for this very innovative app. It has finally allowed me to reliably take notes in any setting. I have a couple of requests.</p> <p>1. Could you bump max video resolution to 640*480? I know file sizes would grow very large, but the choice would be nice, considering the capabilities of the isight.</p> <p>2. Could you allow for the video section and the slides section to be detached from the main window? This would allow the user to take advantage of a multimonitor setup in playback mode.</p> <p>3. Could you implement a keyboard shortcut to advance slides during recording mode?</p> <p>4. This one may be a bit of a stretch: Most people do not type notes that refer to something that is being said at that same exact time. Instead, the notes being written at any particular point in time probably refer to comments that were made previously, perhaps 1, 2, 5, 10, 30, etc seconds ago. It would be nice if the user could account for their personal gap by being able to set a preference that recorded current key strokes as key strokes from x seconds ago.</p> <p>Again, thank you for writing this wonderful piece of software. </p>
