Unison

Castle commented on 06 Jan 2010

This is now probably the most elegant, well designed and useful app on my Mac. I waited and waited and waited and waited for an update and I'm not one little bit disappointed. Dave, thank you!

MPlayer OSX Extended

Castle commented on 12 Oct 2009

This has become my default media player, though VLC is sometimes needed for trickier files. The only thing I really miss from VLC, though, is the 10 second jump when hitting an arrow key/the forward button. MPlayer seems to jump about 1 minute, and you have to hold alt to get a short jump. Any chance of getting a way to specify the jump duration?

I find that isn't how it works for me. Left/right skip about 1 minute, holding alt and pressing left/right skips 10-20 seconds.

Playback

Castle commented on 26 Aug 2009

£3.22 for the ability to look up my license code if I later lose it? They just lost a sale for the sheer cheek of it.

This ever going to get a real update?

Rivet

Castle commented on 20 Aug 2009

Loved Rivet, paid for it and it worked a treat with my router setup. Now I'm trying to get Rivet to work with my Xbox via sharing my Mac's internet with it. No dice. According to the Rivet forums this isn't possible with Rivet. But it is with Connect 360. Wasted $20. Well, I did use Rivet for a month or so, so not totally wasted, but if you want to share your Mac's internet with your Xbox you'll want Connect 360, not Rivet.

iSeek

Installed a login item without asking. Deleted immediately.

Dock Spaces

Castle commented on 29 Oct 2008

After running Dock Spaces my Spaces had been cut down to 4. I tried to go into System Preferences to change them back, but my Spaces is badly messed up. First, no windows would appear at all. I restarted, assuming it would get rid of the problem, but instead every time I initiate Spaces all the windows come up, over the top of the blue Spaces. Can't get to System Preferences to try to change my settings back. Not fun.

Timeline 3D

Castle reviewed on 23 Oct 2008

No problem projecting the timeline here (though I've only tried with mirrored displays). What I would like to see, though, are more advanced (or at least easier) printing options, so a long timeline can be scaled down, exporting to Flash would also be great, and the ability to prioritise certain events, so on really busy timelines some events don't get pushed off the page. The keys used to navigate through a 3D timeline are also strange - I'd like to be able to hit the space bar to move to the next event on a timeline in 3D mode. Perhaps allow the user to define the keys? A great app, but surprisingly few options.

MacPAR deLuxe

Castle commented on 14 Oct 2008

Great app - I really couldn't live without it. I do wish the CPU usage could be limited, though. On my MBP running MacPAR will make playing any kind of video impossible.

Spore

Castle commented on 09 Sep 2008

Includes highly restrictive and invasive DRM that puts me off buying it entirely.

Xslimmer

Castle had trouble on 31 Dec 2008

I ran Xslimmer on all the apps in my app folder that weren't blacklisted. I'd say about half now won't launch and are having to be re-downloaded. Examples include LiquidCD, MacPAR Deluxe and Wallet.

That's one hell of a coincidence, then. All of these stopped working IMMEDIATELY following my use of Xslimmer, and have worked perfectly since I reinstalled them (and haven't used Xslimmer since doing so).

MediaCentral Pro

Castle had trouble on 12 Aug 2007

Is this thing still wiping hard disks? The developer never did acknowledge the issue officially, so I wonder if he ever fixed it? If you run MediaCentral from a folder inside your Applications folder, BEWARE!

[Version 2.6.3]

SideTrack

Castle had trouble on 24 Sep 2006

Is there any way to get this working on 10.5? Is there an update likely? Or will we have to wait until 10.5's official release? XCode is so much harder when I have to manually scroll :(
