Background

When choosing 'Save Options' in the UI, the IP Broadcast Addr is saved, but not the Target MAC Addr.

Questions

• Is this intentional behaviour?
• Would it not make more sense to also save the MAC address?
• If this is intended, what is the rationale? (Just trying to understand intended use case)

Background

WakeOnLan works fine on RISC OS 5 and builds using GCC. Next step is to test and fix (where needed) issues to ensure it runs fine also on RISC OS 4.xx and 6.xx

Do not commit directly in the main branch, instead create your branch or fork, make your changes, test them and then ask for a PR to develop branch.

Multiple PRs are ok :)

Definition of Done

• Add fixes to compile with older releases of GCC that runs on RISC OS 4.xx and 6.xx
• Ensure it builds fine on both RISC OS 5 and the older two releases
• Document you changes

Background

In order to help users to have an easy life with !WakeOnLAN tool for RISC OS, make a short Youtube video explaining how to use it in both cases:

1. From the Desktop
2. As a command, for example executed by !Alarm or some other form of automation

The video has to be done on a RISC OS powered device (for example Raspberry Pi, RComp Mini.M, Castle Iyonix PC, Pandaboard etc.)

You can publish the video on your own Channel, so this is also an opportunity to drive views to your YouTube channel.

When you're done ask for a PR, where we'll add your Youtube video link to the README.md in the documentation to this repository.

Do not commit directly to the main branch, instead create your own branch or fork, make the video, add the link to the README.md and submit it as a PR in develop branch.

Definition of Done

• Video is published and reachable
• Video show how to use the software and it's clear and either mute or with a nice commentary
• Video is titled: How to use RISC OS !WakeOnLAN
• Video is short and show ALL the options used on both the WIMP and the CLI

Background

@mattharris ,
quick thought, today I have compared the audio volume of your video with the average youtube videos audio-volume.
It seems that WakeOnLAN video audio-volume is way lower than the audio-volume of the average youtube video.

Could you please check and, if I am correct, apply some audio compression to increase the base volume of your video? Please compare with general YouTube video.

Why is this a potential problem? Because if indeed the volume of the video is too low compared to the average video audio-volume and advertisements and a user is forced to increase his computer volume, then, when an ad may start or when the video switch for another one we may cause the user to have an heart attack ;)

Thanks.
