Love AutoStreamer but wheres the status bar?


Recommended Posts

Well,

I guess you can gather from the thread title that I think you should add a progress bar to AutoStreamer so that users have some sort of idea as to what percentage has been completed and maybe even an estimated time left as well. I think this would be a beneficial feature and I feel that it would be well received.

Slice :devil:

^ kinda like AutoPatcher's loading?

btw: i have created a simple progressbar-based thingy... ill finish it off tomorrow and maybe let you play with it... 1.0.30b2 :D

Exactly, I should have wrote it that way. You know I forgot how that looks and then I looked at the Maximum PC article on AutoPatcher XP (Page 53, October Issue). I am pretty sure you can write that script. :D

Hehehe... I was able to code it once for AutoPatcher... don't think it would be that hard to do it for AutoStreamer... although im still looking at a progressbar-solution... Statusbar would be ugly in AutoStreamer IMO...

just an update: 1.0.30b2 will feature all 3 possible solutions, because i'm outta my damn mind... so you will see a messy screen showing the old progress indicator, a progressbar AND autopatcher's database-load-ish progress indicator. We might end up using 2 (i.e AP-style progress + progressbar)

That what I meant...progress bar...just couldn?t think of the word when i created this thread

you'll find all goodies in 1.0.30b2 (18th sep)... yes, i know it already 18th sep here (2:54am) but lol... i mean it will be release in pm... expect listbox (autostreamer used that), progressbar and autopatcher-ish checklist :D

and of course compatibility with special chars in AS folder...

/Raptor

Tada! 1.0.30b2! I said it would be ready and it is! And quite early!

Things to have in mind

1. AutoStreamer folder should handle special characters now

2. Since i had to change some critical bits of code, check if everything works fine...

3. In the last screen, pick which progress indicators you prefer...

4. ...because it's quite messy there atm (things on top of others)

5. if a subfolder named UPDATES exists in I386 folder AutoStreamer will not continue...

6. ...since Slipstreaming doesnt work on those...

7. This release is BETA... If you're not into this stuff, don't download it! Instead, download this release (1.0.29)

Great,

Basic functionality seems to work (can go through process check list and progress bar both work, haven't checked images though). Anyways all it needs is a little beautifying; the text is cut off a little in the checklist and the progress bars doent exactly blend with the current UI. It would also be cool if the progress bare was ?cooler looking? as it kind of looks out of place in the program as the rest of it is so eye pleasing.

Something like the attached image might be more appropriate if at all possible to blend in with your current UI.

I also relies that this is in BATA stages so I am sure it wont look the same by the time the finial release comes out.

P.S. haven?t checked full functionality yet.... but the progress bare and check list seem to work

that progress bar is in the windows boot screen!! i can't use that! i will however use a XP-style progressbar... however, that will add to the size (well i guess its already small and it wouldnt matter much)... (extra control needs to be included)

Yea, I wasn?t referring to that exact progress bar but the general style. XP-style as you so well put it:D:D

OK people, 1.0.30b3 is now up.

Attention:

This is still a BETA release, which means it can burn your computer, eat your food, kill your pets, steal your girlfriend and even kick you in the head. You have been warned.

Changes:

- Since only one bootloader is needed, the rest have been dumped...

- The old listbox was dumped since...

- ...the new checklist was prefered...

- The progressbar will also be kept...

- ...but with a true XP-style...

- God-mode (no service pack build detection, for those you know what they are doing and want to do things fast...) [use /godmode]

Tried the latest build (1.0.30b3) and it works flawlessly for me. :D I like the new checklist and progress bar over what was there before and I am very glad that my recommendations did not fall on def ears. :happy: I was also surprised about how fast they were implemented. anyways keep up the good work. By the way when will this new version go "GOLD" and exit from BATA status?

Slice :devil:

P.S. one thing I noticed about this build is that the progress bar is not centered in the app (to far to the right). no big deal just wondering why it is that way. Also, the bar still looks kind of win95-2000ish (even though there are blocks now) and I still think it doesn?t due the rest of the UI justice, although this could be due to me using this on a 2k machine. Just thought I?d mention :whistle:tle:

right now i have b4... which has some new stuff:

you can select to manually customize installation. in this case, autostreamer will pause the procedure after the service pack integration and let you do your thing. then you can continue with iso creation.

also, there are some minor fixes :)

as i mentioned, the progressbar isnt a xp-alike one... it a true xp style progressbar, so the new style will only be seen on windows xp :D

    • I just looked on my computer and there are settings and log files for utilities I have never even turned on!
    • O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 by Razvan Serea O&O ShutUp10 offers a simple yet effective way to take control of your Windows privacy. It provides access to almost 50 privacy-related tweaks, most of them hidden or not easily accessible to the average computer users. Using a very simple interface, you decide how Windows 10/11 should respect your privacy by deciding which unwanted functions should be deactivated. Using ShutUp10 you can easily disable Windows Defender, turn off telemetry, disable peer-to-peer updates, turn off Wi-Fi Sense, disable automatic Windows updates, turn off and reset Cortana and more. ShutUp10 allows you to create a System Restore point before you apply any changes, so that you can revert your system at any time if you run into problems. O&O ShutUp10 is entirely free and does not have to be installed – it can be simply run directly and immediately on your PC. And it will not install or download retrospectively unwanted or unnecessary software, like so many other programs do these days! O&O ShutUp10 Free and Premium The latest version brings O&O ShutUp10 Premium, expanding the app’s long-standing privacy controls with automatic enforcement of user-defined settings. Instead of manually rechecking options after every Windows update, users can set their preferred privacy configuration once—or apply recommended settings in a single click—and the tool continuously monitors them in the background. If Windows 10 or 11 re-enables disabled features or introduces new data collection paths, Premium restores the chosen settings automatically without user intervention. The free version remains available and fully functional for manual adjustments, offering the same core privacy controls for Windows. However, the Premium tier is aimed at users who want long-term, hands-off protection, adding automatic reapplication after updates, ongoing monitoring, and optional notifications to ensure privacy settings remain consistent over time. O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 changelog: Added “Show Differences” button in the overview panel “Don’t show again” option for the restore point prompt Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut for search/filter functionality Detection and linking of system-wide and user-specific setting associations Automatic search while typing PREM: Option to preserve notification counters and timestamps across application restarts PREM: Reset blocked settings button in the Settings dialog PREM: Informational message when no settings are blocked PREM: Update check can also be triggered from the menu PREM: Notification deduplication and activity log summary feature Improved L005 “Disable Windows Location Service”: Version-specific split (up to Windows 11 23H2) and new variant for Windows 11 24H2+ L001 (Disable Location): Added Night Light warning to the description in all languages Search now detects setting IDs even when ID display is disabled and offers to enable it Detection and removal of Copilot/AI desktop apps in RecallTerminator Optimized High DPI support PREM: Reset button is now only enabled when blocked items exist – setting IDs are shown in the confirmation dialog PREM: Updated tray icons with higher-resolution versions PREM: Activity Log timestamps now use localized date and time formats PREM: Tray icon status now uses OK/Warning indicators and localized tooltips PREM: Recall folder detection switched to service-based detection PREM: Copilot uninstallation now provides UI feedback and improved verification Fixed Description text was not displayed correctly for the last item and disappeared when clicking the scrollbar Crash when clicking a search result heading or the […] button PREM: Installation path is now correctly preserved during upgrades PREM: Tray icon was not reliably removed when exiting the application PREM: Main window was not displayed correctly in single-instance mode PREM: Incorrect display of the & symbol in tray icon tooltips on Windows 10 PREM: Fixed notification flooding after sleep/standby PREM: Dashboard was not refreshed after applying recommended settings during onboarding PREM: Progress bar was not reset after deleting Recall folders PREM: Fixed service startup failures PREM: Fixed incorrect drift detection when Automatic Protection was disabled PREM: Notifications now correctly count all deviating settings when protection is enabled PREM: Registration Wizard was shown after sleep/standby despite a valid license Download: O&O ShutUp10 3.1.1104 | 76.4 MB (Freeware) Download: O&O ShutUp10 32-bit | ARM64 View: O&O ShutUp10 Home Page | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Fascinating...W h i t e P o w e r is now also asterisks out.  
    • In the past few days I have noticed two odd moderation activities. First, when I posted the term 'White Nationist Christian' it was asterisk's out. When I changed it to **** it was allowed! Second, in the Politics is a ###business thread I was allowed to post that the GOP is a party of p e d ophiles but I was censored  when I posted the GOP are a party of p e d ophile protectors. Wtf Neowin. Please explain.
