Just to keep people up to date. December was a bad month for GetIt - it suffered the most disruption it has ever had.
The server had to be wiped and reprovisioned and then everything restored, I did this but lost a few days of uploads. Then with the release of the new distro the version of .http included was incompatible with the GetIt site - it took a few days to get a resolution. Anyway - we should be back to normal now! *fingercrossed*
It has stopped working for some reason :( Same thing that others have reported here - starts, resets ESP, says "checking WiFi" then flashes the border for a few seconds, and then just does nothing. Not sure if there's some debug or verbose way to run it and get more info. NextOS 2.09 (latest distro) core 3.02.01 and FW 1.44db. (Edit: worth mentioning that other WiFi apps work, e.g. ZXDB-dl works fine)
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm using version 1.3 and these are all the entries in the games category for me. Do I need to revert to the older version maybe?
Thanks - Yes I see there is an issue and only a few results are being shown. Category filtering seems to be broken, I know there is a pending bug with the client but this seems to be happening at the backend. Looking into it.
For the moment if you just use the search and type "GAME" it should bring back the GAME category etc
I went back to using an old version for a while - tried downloading the latest version (1.3?) and still get the same error as above? Was it sorted? I am on the latest version of everything as far as i know (KS1).
I have the same issue. N-GO board, all latest NextOS and firmware. On all bauds. Even tried the .espbaud -dfR 115200 command. And multiple retrys by cold booting consistently having this issue. I had not got a chance even once to load the program fully yet. Always freezes at the "checking wifi" after a bit of loading.
Downloading the install.bas works fine, but when I load "install.bas" it got the c nonsense in basic in Line 70 error. Could you help? I'm using ZX Spectrum Next KS2
Version 1.3 is now available, best way to "get it" is go into your getit folder and type : http get -h zxnext.uk -u /go -f install.bas and re-run the installer!
I'm getting the same as other people are reporting in the comments. I download and install via my Next so the Wi-Fi is definitely working. The installer runs just fine and I reboot and try to run getit.bas it loads up and says "Reset ESP" then "Clear HTTP" and finally "Checking WIFI" but that's it, nothing else. V1.3, NEXTOS 2.08
This is a FANTASTIC tool! Well done! Im enjoying listening to old music mod files. Is there a way to upload mod files to the database? I get 5x pages of files for Hoffman, but nil hits for Getafix...

This creates an empty basic file. Looks like server's response is empty now.
Fixed.

Hm, MODs are not playing for me.. What could be the problem?
How are things now? Are you using HDMI? There's an issue with the latest core on HDMI for KS1 owners.

hi get same issue on my next KS2 with same 2.09, 3.02.01 and 1.44db. Have tried reinstalling which downloads & unpacks ok
I get the same, stuck on checking WiFi. Fully up to date with latest distro, and my zxdb-dl also still works well.
Mine no longer brings back many entries? If I browse the catalogue there's now only a handful of games for example? Used to have loads?

I am getting a "C Nonsense in BASIC, ;826,1 when I do the load "install.bas" command
Please make sure you are on the latest NextZXOS 2.8 and 3.10 CORE.
Is this only for KS2 machines?
Latest core and NextZXOS.
Hangs after the title screen. Just says "checking wifi" at the bottom of the screen.... and yes I am connected to wifi!
I have the same issue.
I also have this issue.
that would indicate an old version of NextZXOS? Are you on the latest?

I fixed the very same issue after upgrading NextOS from 2.07 to 2.08, the firmware to 1.44, and the core to 3.02. Now it works like a charm.
Thanks for the feedback!
Version 1.3 is now available, best way to "get it" is go into your getit folder and type : http get -h zxnext.uk -u /go -f install.bas and re-run the installer!

Any idea whats ip?
Awesome tool, many thanks!
All working great except playing mod files, it hangs after printing Selected blah.mod
If I reset the computer, the downloaded files play fine in nxmodplayer.
I tried a few mods including the ones you play in your demo youtube video.
(KS2 Next)
There are some edge case with MODS that we will look! Thanks!

thanks again.
Thanks!
Installed and immediately downloaded the obligatory "Ace of Base" mod file :-) Thanks for the tools to do it!
awesome!
I've installed this and tried it on my KS2, it seems very useful thank you.
awesome!
This looks phenomenal! Very well done.
thanks!
