I never could get it to open a disk. It'll open files but not the disk itself, so I wouldn't call this a disk browser. File browser, yep. Except on an external drive, where it wouldn't open anything on an attached SD card. I'm still looking. |

I see that if you have multiple users logged into one computer, there is no way to chat with one user without the other user being logged off. So, I'll keep looking for the ideal home network instant messaging app. (Hint to developer: If you would assign different ports to other users on the same machine, you might get this to work with multiple users.) |

Hey, this is good. I re-encoded an 8.4MB 50-second 320x240 mpeg1 clip into h.264 using Quicktime's standard encoder and x264. Here's what I got: With QT h264 I set the encode to High, data rate to Automatic. File size turned out to be 7.3MB and it took 55 seconds. With x264 I had to set the quality to Medium-High to acheive roughly the same file size (setting it to High like in h264 encode resulted in a large file, 20-something MB). It took 45 seconds and generated a 6.3MB file. The x264 was noticably better. It wasn't WOW! better but it was definately better. You had to look hard to notice that either of them were not as good as the original. And x264 did it with a smaller file. I like it. Nice going, whoever did this. |

Got a reply from the iClock folks. They tell me my issue is with MacUpdate, not them. We'll see. |

I paid. I downloaded. I installed. Received the email with the magic activation number. iClock refuses to accept it. Emailed the developer and so far have received no response. This isn't good. I'll give them another day and then I'm calling my bank to cancel the transaction. |

What I've always wanted in an app like this is the ability to UNrar a set when there is 1 or more missing pieces (and none or not enough PARs). Not useful for getting apps from the newsgroups, but at least for music or movie files, you'll get SOMEthing rather than nothing. |

What I want is an RAR expander that can tolerate a missing RAR file and STILL expand what is there, rather than quitting and just giving up. Sometimes I find a movie file or music file that's been RAR'ed but for some reason is missing 1 or more segments (newsgroups are infamous for this), and I'd like to see or hear whatever is available in the RARs. Do it, and I'd pay for it. |

I do hardware & software design. Have for many many years. I went to their site & downloaded the user manual, then read through the intro, titled "What Is Compass" (that's its new name, btw). And I *still* don't know what this thing does. |

Well Telestream, try one more time. Although now vers 2.0.1 allows wmvs to play and it doesnt crash QT when you close the window (bug #1), when you try to export a wmv with QT Pro, you get an error "-2126" (bug #2), whatever that means. I tried several wmvs and none will export. None of them were DRMed. |
