KATG Desktop App

[Sokkratez]

Very cool. I like the interface changes. Looks more... intentional now. The stream button is a good addition, having the option is nice.

One bug that I found is clicking on the "Visit Keith's Twitter" button takes you to /KeithAndTheGirl (typically Chemda's) while Keith's is /KeithMalley. Also, a suggestion I have after using this app for some time is to have an option for whether a downloaded episode auto-plays when clicked. I found that auto-play can be problematic when trying to delete multiple episodes.

I see that AIR for Linux has come out of BETA since yesterday; I have yet to test it there, though.

Thanks, I knew there would something hehe I always miss something.. but I added an extra point to the versioning, so the next will be a small update 1.6.1, if i implemented it properly..

really! I'd been reading stuff about why it's taking so long for them to come out of beta and I gave up on it the day before yesterday.. go figure.

Turns out AIR 1.5 doesn't install on Ubuntu 8.10, it's only compatible with 7.10

Fixed a few bugs:

v1.6.1

• Fixed link to keith’s twitter.
• Removed separated cam window, now the chat window just loads katg.com/chat
• Changed episode player behavior now you need to double click, or select it and hit play to listen to a downloaded episode.
  
• Dock/Systemtray menu: Added ‘check for updates…’ to check for a new version without having to restart the app.
• Minor design changes

Hey all, just uploaded 1.6.2.
It's not a big update, just some minor fixes.

I also moved the KATG Desktop site/install page to its originally intended place. going to the old link will redirect you.

The new link is http://chalk-it-out.com/#/Projects/KATGDesktop/

I'm having trouble installing 1.6.2 on my new windows 7 box. My Air is ver 1.5. [ note - App won't install in XP either]

I get "application couldn't be installed" - error 2032. Any idea what the issue is?

Amazing app btw. Thanks!

if the error is stemming from windows 7 then i can't help you cause i don't have a copy, and cause if air doesn't work 100% on windows 7 it's unlikely that adobe will bother fixing it before it's officially released.

error 2032 is usually related to getting/streaming the install file, and some server settings, but if that was the issue i think i would be experiencing them too, and i can't duplicate it. so

1) what browser are you using?

2) how are you installing it? downloading the air install file, or auto installing from the site?

3) are you upgrading or have you installed it before on that system.

4) i'm assuming your windows 7 and xp are the same machine, was it an upgrade?

5) can you install other air apps without it throwing the error?

6) where you expecting a 6th question?

Firefox 3.05 on both machines

d/l'ed air from adobe - installed app from your site

3) are you upgrading or have you installed it before on that system.

fresh install on both machines - the Win7 box was an XP machine and air 1.05/app 1.5 ran fine before win7 install

4) i'm assuming your windows 7 and xp are the same machine, was it an upgrade?

nope -2 diff machines - win7 machine was XP before a fresh install yesterday. Not an upgrade.

5) can you install other air apps without it throwing the error?

Dunno? think this is my only air app...

6) where you expecting a 6th question?

Wow - what fast service!

EDIT - did a manual install and it worked fine! I didn't even see the link til you mentioned it. THANKS!
