The developers of this app need to take a good hard look at what StreamToMe/ServeToMe has accomplished, *also* using open-source components but having significantly improved playback compatibility, interface quality, and overall polish and presentation
If ServeToMe could act as a DLNA server there would be no reason to use PS3MS ever again.
What the thumbnail screenshot isn't showing you is that the app comes with a built-in Facebook "like" button, visible at all times. I deleted it immediately after downloading because it was so obnoxious. If I'm downloading a YouTube player app it's because I want less crap in my video player experience, not more.
Unfortunately, it's the only app that does what it does. Anyone out there who has the programming chops to handle all the file conversion and metadata editing *and* wrap the package in a clean, understandable interface is going to make a mint.
The RAM issues with the 64-bit client seem to have been resolved with more recent versions. Now if only there were some way to switch to a different computer without deleting your entire backup set…
When it's still missing features like being able to select destination directories on a per-torrent basis--features other clients supported well in their early stages--I'm not entirely sure it deserves to be promoted from "beta" to "stable". Not that these terms really have much in the way of meaning anymore.
No quarrels with the service, but I am noticing that the "bztransmit" program in the latest version (1.0.1.190) is suddenly consuming hundreds of megs of memory more than the previous release (build 162?). Right now it's at 350MB and climbing. Using Snow Leopard on an iMac5,1.
I found a copy of the old build 162 and reinstalled that. Maximum memory usage: 110MB after running for eight hours. Build 190 went as high as 520MB at one point after running the same amount of time.
