The Murphy bed has gone to the projects page as my life is too busy to play with that further. I have now a ER Gear electrically height adjustable desk. This is a sales picture from Amazon and will replace with my own when I finish customising.

I have taken this apart for thorough cleaning of the distroplate, which on the Thermaltake distro 350p, is the whole backside of the case!!! I am still using the Meg Ace. The Aqua system is handling the negative pressure. I would like to say, that after setting it to 98mb from the native 400, it has been reliable, with one detectable leak. I will replace all the soft tubing as I have ordered a Bykski GPU WC for my Gigabythe RTX 2070 Super Windforce. 2nd computer is still the Ghost Canyon i7 and for portability, the Zenbook Duo i9.

The info below is my basic HTML that all runs locally using Firefox as a frontend. Firefox is more forgiving than Chrome or MS edge when doing things like modifying Bootstrap. I had tried once to eliminate Quirks mode from all my pages, but I lost some functionality. The amount of "professional" sites that enable it, is realistic when you think of how much business can be lost by placing coding etiquette above real money. Likewise, until I decide it's worth my time, I'm not bothering. I have just added this as it doesn't read below, but I think is somewhere else... And that is the software below is designed for my touch screens (the major reason for the icon size and artwork). I have no icons on my desktop and millions? of files. Through the thousands of media files I possess, I wanted to be able to access any media in three - four touches, regardless of how "deep" the location of the files. My homepage on Firefox is a custom page/HTML file that takes me anywhere I choose, local or external. All icons below are visually identifiable normally taking a unfamilair observer a few seconds each menu at most to identify, myself - almost immediately, i.e. from a blank screen to a song playing, takes me around 2 seconds from around three thousand songs (for example).

jquery-3.4.1.slimminjs.txt replaces https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.4.1.slim.min.js

APlayerminjs.txt replaces https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/aplayer/1.10.1/APlayer.min.js

https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.4.1/js/bootstrap.min.js was replaced by nothing as I need bootstrap for the main page, but I don't need it for the APlayer.

The original program used web images, but as mine are local and custom I don't need: https://images.pexels.com/photos/838702/pexels-photo-838702.jpeg?auto=compress&cs=tinysrgb&dpr=1&w=500 for example, and get away with just: cover: 'DMP.jpg I have my cover art in an album folder of Depeche Mode. In that folder is another folder with all the tracks.

All the albums are in a folder called MUSIC along with the "re-engineered" files above.

If I have a video file linked to that page, I might use something like <a href="file:///E:/Music Videos/Depeche Mode\Policy Of Truth.mp4" class="album-poster" data-switch="58"><img src="DMPT.jpg?"></a></div>

My utility is called "Menus" and is in the root of C. I use five drives, not because of space concerns, but more for redundancy/backup/possible drive failure.

The whole point of this design as I have it on my touch screen and it is my home page on Firefox. All icons are pictorial and all "headers" are hyperlinks back to the previous pages anywhere in the (program?)

In normal working mode. like typing this: The 49" is being used as three screens/windows. The touchscreen is to my right with Firefox opened as a seperate window. touch once - music opens; second touch - opens album; third touch - plays song and will then continue album until I choose something else.

Low resolution MP4s play in the browser, high res or 4k, I have open in VLC by default, but Firefox has also an

1) Press Mozilla icon on task bar 2) press music/movies or media 3) press album/movie category or play media (3 touch) 4) press song or movie. (4 touch)
In Music/media - A player automatically opens and plays music
In movies or videos/media - mp4's (normally low res) are played in the browser itself and Mkv's (HD and 4K) open in VLC.

I am at present experimenting with ISO's which MakeMKV converts a standard DVD rip to this. I can save space by using Handbrake to convert them to MKV's (but could be mp4), depending on whether I need to preserve audio, subtitles etc. Iso's are though triggering that annoying "do want to download this file or save it" message which require changing the default action despite settings saying it's changed already from save to open - it does though then open immediately. My hobbies include reverse engineering and I am sure given time I can figure a way around it.

This is a page I was designing as I had a thought with movie sequences that I could have a themed sub section for any particular movie series. The code (albeit crude) is just the beginning for me to see how it might look. When time permits, I have the idea that I can mimic the background gif, for the images of the movies and sync them, so that they will appear to be part of the background gif. As some of these are 4k, the default player is VLC when you click, or touch them. So the idea is to be basically have what will look like an interactive gif. I have the code to the left so you can see it is quite basic.

The code under Fawlty Towers I think more conforms to the rules of HTML in that Mechanics.txt is a CSS file with web links removed as I wanted to create my site which is self-contained and only uses the internet for my own links, web design etc. Everything is local and I use a browser for overall design of the library as it means everything is always up to date and I have never had to redesign code for a program update, as it no longer works. All is written as UTF-8 which most browser companies want to be the standard.

The layout of the icons as illustrated in the Harry potter gif, indicates that through different values <div class="col-md-5"></a></div> will space the icon 5th of 12 columns, meaning design can be written into the text instruction for the data, as most "professionals" generally might put this in CSS. As I have multiple files, I can't see the point as I would need a variable command and would be incredibly complicated for me to do.

To the left is one of my albums and this also has Mp4 in it. As these files are low resolution, I just have them open in the browser. I have quite a lot of videos and sometimes when I listen to music, I like to watch the associated video. I have a pair of Edifier speakers which are tri-amped and although only £400 sound quite good and serve my needs. The code as you can see incorporates A-player which I visually customised from the stock version and I overall liked the functionality. Things like WMP and Plex were not what I wanted, so this is my design for my needs. All this media is local, so no internet, no problem.

The Mentalist is regular col-sm-2 and as I have all the seasons & is a lot of icons. The series episode title means col-sm-1 is too small to read and the illustration too small to see. I don't use generally <p></p> anywhere except in my music folder where I have a few albums containing 100 tracks or so. When I have the time all songs will have album art, but present just use <p> & <h?> etc. Movies are generally really good as an image is generally enough and occasionally I will use a promo shot which is everything you need.
