WILLIAMD I did NOT see the 10.5 requirement. Your installer SHOULD CHECK. I know that humans are here to serve programmers and computers, but Users cannot always perfectly obey your wishes. YOU SHOULD CHECK BEFORE INSTALLING on non-compatible systems.

Deletes 'Login' items from secondary user account. This app may work for the Admin user, but it (a) does NOT work for secondary users, and (b) Deletes ALL the login startup apps from the user account. Now I've got to rebuild all those startup items - grrrrr.

DOCKLAND Please don't spread FUD. Fantasktik does NOT remove startup items. It can only add one startup items. Also, as you mentionned in your email you installed it on Tiger, which is NOT supported by Fantasktik, as you can see on macupdate and on Fantasktik website. Fantasktik uses Core Animation which is only available in 10.5 Leopard.

DOCKLAND That's a valid point. I didn't think it would even launch in previous versions of OS X but we'll add a check in future releases.

"VideoDrive is compatible with iPod, iPhone, Front Row and AppleTV" NO, it does NOT allow unconverted movies etc to be played on those devices. This statement by the developer is a LIE.

WILLIAMD Did not work. Spent 1/2 hour trying to get it to convert any of 10 different .wmv files. In all cases, it just gave a non-moving (candy-stripe) progress bar with no end results.

LUGDANUM And indeed, there is a bug that I have not yet resolved, when a file / path contains special character as accents for example, the program crashes and turns in a vacuum. I live correct it as soon as possible. (bug reported on macupdate) Thank you for your understanding. ****************************************** Et bien en fait, il existe un bug que je n'ai pas encore résolu, quand un fichier/chemin contient des caractère spéciaux comme des accents par exemple, le programme plante et tourne dans le vide.

HAGAR08 I don't know what the confusion is: the tool clearly states it imports videos in iTunes. ALL videos. And that's what it does. And it does a great job at it. For iPod, iPhone and AppleTV: it is clear that if you have a video in an incompatible format in iTunes, you need to convert it first. That will ALWAYS be like this, with any approach, as those devices CANNOT play anything else (except when you hack appleTV). I don't see the problem: it's all clearly explained at their site: VideoDrive FAQ

Videobox | Feb 12 2008 |
WILLIAMD I spent several hours today trying to get the Videobox to work. The developer tried to help, but his instruction should be clearly listed with the software, which includes updating SIMBL, finding the right library to delete the old FLVR (there were two, in the end), and by HAND (uninstaller did not remove the software properly). Then, after going around and around, I still could not get the software to work. It would download the Flash video, but would stop before compressing the video into iPod format. ( And although the app does NOT say so, the developer says it's still BETA ) | |

Videobox | Feb 12 2008 |
WILLIAMD What I really object to is NOT KNOWING what you are going to lose in an "upgrade". Videobox is NOT an upgrade or an improvement to an existing function, it is a reduced-feature replacement. The LOSS of features should be noted so that poor b'stards like myself don't waste over 2 hours messing about with it. AND it should have a User Manual.

WILLIAMD More problems... Even if I open Videobox, and Drag a YouTube page into the URL area of the Videobox window, it says "no video found on that page". If I open Videobox > Preferences, it crashes every time. And I still cannot see how to remove FLVR, even though I've deleted every FLVR and SIMBL on my hard disk. FLVR is still around (and still seems to want to work) Give me back the Clean, Integrated, Flawless FLVR - PLEASE. Throw this Videobox CRAP away, PLEASE Send me a URL for FLVR (which I PAID FOR)

WILLIAM DONELSON I tried to get this to work for almost two hours, but could not get any of the features to work as specified. Once I did get some of it working, the app was constantly confused about which drive was which, placing my iPod icon onto my main hard disk sometimes. *** When I took my valuable time, and sent a bug report to the author, and suggested that he withdraw this app until it worked properly, he FLAMED me and suggested that I was stupid. I do NOT recommend this software to anyone, due to the rudeness and arrogance of the author. (emails available on request)
