MHAR  Getting better all the time. The only real alternative in many years to the legendary BitPlayer. Having the Thumbnail preview a still frame avoids the doubled playback issues in QTTunes, but having it playback in sync with the main window would still be the best option.

MHAR  There are still issues with the interaction between thumbnail and the main viewing window. Sometimes, one will run and not the other, sometimes both together but slightly offset, creating a strange audio echo effect.

To have the thumbnail and main window linked so that they always play together would be the way to go.

MHAR  This could really be the new Bitplayer that we have been waiting for for all these years. As a presentation application it still has some issues to sort out with the interaction between the main window and the thumbnail window, but it's a good start and hopefully will continue to develop in positive ways.

MHAR  Wow. As someone who reads and writes Chinese but is not a native speaker, this app is absolutely amazing. If only I had had it twenty years ago! How different life would have been.

MHAR  Use quote marks "like this" just like in the Google web search. Spotlight doesn't recognize them, and in a phrase search will bring up all examples of each individual word.

MHAR  Fantastic. Way way better than Spotlight, which is practically useless. Searching for text phrases is at last possible on a Mac.

JOHNNY ROCKET  hmmm.... my spotlight searches within text. Has done so since I first started using it... And it will search by date, by file types, by attributes, etc, etc.

ESPIRIDION  mhar, I have already tried the quotation marks but the results I got were the same as without them. I’ve also used AND as well as + but the results were equally poor.

ESPIRIDION  Johnny, searching within text is not the same as searching a particular phrase.

A tool for searching for exact phrases can be found here:

MHAR  This program has really matured into a quality piece of software. Any comparison with Pages is unwarranted, as Pages is just awful.
