Istanbul Edition

Hey guys… good news!

After 3 days, I finally purchased a plug adapter and could recharge my laptop’s battery in Turkish power sockets. So, in a few hours and with a great help of my friend Raphael (he has some C# knowledge from his dark past at an evil software company) I could finish the first functional version of Tomboy’s Voice Notes!

While I don’t commit, take a look at this screenshot. (Of course you won’t open recorder and player at the same time, it’s just a demonstration!)

Oh, if I’m at Istanbul, I’m attending GUADEC. This is great! Free software, free parties, free memory key, free t-shirts :) I met my SoC mentor, Nickolay. And I agree with you all that Istanbul is a very beautiful city, with its wonderful chaos and the Bosphorus view!

    Killer feature! This will really be awesome to have in tomboy.

    Will the record/play windows be embedded into the tomboy page? that would be nicer imho

    Why have dialogs? cant you just plug it into the normal UI?

    I agree with you, I also wanted to embed the controls into the UI. But the gstreamer work is done by a dll, that has the loop while recording/playing, so the buttons to start/pause the streamings needed to be togheter.

    But there must be a way to do that, I need a bit of time to think on this (maybe someone has an idea?)
