Hosting, external movie data executables
Today, I did more research on hosting providers. Slicehost appears to have an 11 week delay on signing up for their smallest server. I looked at unixshell#, but they say they aren’t taking anyone right now, so I’m going to check out TekTonic. I did put in a request on slicehost, so if in 11 weeks I still don’t have anything, perhaps I’ll go with them.
I got started on the external movie data program. I have the external xine program working just fine. I need to a) make setup.py build it and b) test it with Ben’s new system. I also need to write the external gstreamer program, but that should be easier since it’s python and thus I don’t need to worry about compiling it in setup.py.
