HYPERT  I just saw this comment this week, while I was posting rev 1.14 here. Sorry for not noticing/replying earlier.

This app uses "curl" to download the MP3 file(s) listed inside the M3U file(s). Curl does provide an estimate of the time remaining like:

% Total % Received % Xferd Average Dload Speed Upload Time Total Time Spent Time Left Current Speed

7 2935k 7 222k 0 0 103k 0 0:00:28 0:00:02 0:00:26 122k

If the format of those columns comes out OK, you'll see the Time Left (26 seconds) as the second-to-last column.  
(Version 1.14)

HYPERT  I forgot to check the requirements (10.5 only), so it crashed when I ran it under 10.4. :-(

Why is it so hard to support 10.4 in apps?  
(Version 2.0)

HYPERT  It's been a while since I tried this. Glad to see that it can connect to RealVNC on Windows finally.

I prefer Full Screen VNC clients, as most of my systems run at the same resolution. But, once I entered Full Screen, the only way to "get out" was to Cmd-Tab to another app, and then click back on the Jolly connection dialog box. Is there another/easier way to close the current connection without doing that?  
(Version 0.96.76)

HYPERT  Apparently, this IS standard behavior in 10.5. However, I'm still running 10.4, and this looks WAY out of place!  
(Version 8.0.2)

HYPERT  Just upgraded to 8.0.1 on Mac OS X 10.4.11. Now, whenever iTunes is placed in the background (it's no longer the app in the foreground, but it's still partially visible), the entire window border goes from the normal brushed metal gray to a milky white. It's very distracting, as none of the other Apple windows do this (Safari, Finder, etc.).

Has anyone else seen this? Is this intentional, or a bug?  
(Version 8.0.1)

HYPERT  I'd like to 2nd this request. The last time I tried this SW (a few months ago), it refused to connected my PCs running RealVNC. Isn't this a common thing for others, needed to reach a PC from their Mac?  
(Version 0.96.42)

HYPERT  I found the same problem w/ 3.1 (I think) and just today with 3.1.1. The first time I ran into this (again, Safari 3.1 I think), I deleted all my AcidSearch preferences, and I got AcidSearch working again. Of course, I had to recreate all my searches.

With the 3.1.1 break I upgraded to AcidSearch 0.7b4 (available online, but not from the developer?). That didn't work, so I tried something different. I removed the AcidSearch folder from ~/Library/Application Support, and that did the trick! I didn't lose my searches, either.

Hope that helps someone!  
(Version 3.1.1)

HYPERT  I'd also like to see support for folder-based playlists. Not many apps do this, but I'd like a player which just plays my Music Videos folder or my Home Movies folder, without me having to go add new files to the app/playlist all the time.

Reply to this if it's something you think can be included.

Thanks!  
(Version 185UB)

HYPERT  This could NOT have been easier to use! Not only does it let you combine/merge PDFs, but you can see the original filenames and page numbers, re-arrange them, preview pages, AND delete pages.

Very nice job!  
(Version 2.1)

HYPERT  Someone beat (!) me to it. Yeah, the name is lame, what a shame.  
(Version 1.0)

HYPERT  SiriusMac 1.1 doesn't think that Mac Python 2.5.1 isn't installed, but it is. The message says:

File Tiger:usr:local:bin:phython wasn't found.

Well, /usr/local/bin/phython certainly does exist, although /usr/local is a symlink to somewhere else in my filesystem.

It does work is python itself is a symlink (i.e., python -> python2.5), but not if there's a symlink in the path to python.

Is there a way to support symlinks in the path?

Thanks!  
(Version 1.1)

HYPERT  I assume Mail has to be running for this plugin to get its info?

Forgive my ignorance, but why not just look at the Dock? Why clutter the menubar with something that you should be able to get just by looking DOWN instead of UP?  
(Version 2.4)

HYPERT  Sorry about that! I released rev 1.07 as the first release last week, followed by a bug fix (1.08) and a feature enhancement (1.09). I didn't think this was "spamming" as this is how I release SW at work too (as soon as possible), but I can see your point. There are some packages on MacUpdate that I don't use and I don't like seeing multiple releases for them either.

Next planned feature is support for XSPF playlists, but it will probably take a week until I get around to it anyway...  
(Version 1.0.9)

HYPERT  Thanks for reporting that.

Looks like that M3U contains http://www.wefunkradio.com/mirror/stream/2007-02-09/458, which gets redirected to http://wefunk.codron.org/WeFunk_Show_458_2007-02-09.mp3.

So, that webserver is using "redirection" and isn't listing the direct MP3 files in the M3U. I've released rev 1.08 to fix this bug, but the resulting MP3 files after redirection may not have an MP3 extension.

This example would be saved as just "458" instead of the correct "WeFunk_Show_458_2007-02-09.mp3". This is a limit of curl, though (the underlying download tool).  
(Version 1.07)

HYPERT  Thanks - glad it's useful to someone else too! :-)  
(Version 1.07)

HYPERT  What's an "internet-enabled" disk image? I thought the binary DMG files could be mailed, FTPed, or downloaded without any mods?  
(Version 1.0)

HYPERT  Another terrific update for FolderGlance. Keep up the good work!

If for some reason you find that you have to work on Windows and really miss this functionality, check out KO Approach, Fake!, Fast Folders, and PowerDrawers. Of them, KO Approach is by far my favorite - and it's only at rev 0.2!

I have reviews and links posted at http://hypert.webhop.net/win/index.html?utilities. (I don't have any connection with those utilities; that's just a page of stuff I find useful, and thought others might too.)  
(Version 2.0)

HYPERT  For some reason, I had to go back to an old copy of StuffIt Expander (version 9) to unstuff this SIT file. Kept giving me errors w/ SuffIt 10, and the resulting PKG file wouldn't run.
