X Lossless Decoder 20101031

X Lossless Decoder (XLD) is a tool for Mac OS X that is able to decode/convert/play various \'lossless\' audio files. The supported audio files can be split into some tracks with cue sheet when decoding.

XLD supports the following formats:

• (Ogg) FLAC (.flac/.ogg)
  
• Monkey\'s Audio (.ape)
  
• Wavpack (.wv)
  
• TTA (.tta)
  
• Apple Lossless (.m4a) [10.4 and later]
  
• AIFF, WAV, etc
  

Other formats supported by Libsndfile are also decodable. XLD uses not decoder frontend but library to decode, so no intermediate files are generated. All of the supported formats can be directly split with the cue sheet. XLD also supports so-called \'embedded\' or \'internal\' cue sheet.

Currently you can choose output format from WAVE,AIFF and Raw PCM. In addition, you can choose Ogg Vorbis (aoTuV), MPEG-4 AAC (QuickTime/CoreAudio), MP3 (LAME), Apple Lossless and FLAC in the GUI version.

XBMC 10.0-beta4 - Powerful media center tool for Mac or Apple TV. (Free): "

XBMC 10.0-beta4

XBMC is an award winning media center for Mac OS X. The ultimate High Definition hub for all your media, XBMC is easy to use, looks slick, and has a large helpful community.

WHAT'S NEW

Version 10.0-beta4:

Well, beta 3 had a few regressions. So rather than moving along to rc1, we decided to throw out one last (we hope!) beta. There a few things to take note of:

• Live now contains an Audio Mixer. You’ll find it in the Programs section. Non-Live users (Linux and OSX) may install it from the add-ons browser. This replaces the previous scripts that attempted to set volume levels. As a result, volumes may be low or muted by default, but now you can adjust them with your remote.
  
• After installing a skin from the add-on browser, you’ll now be prompted to switch to it. It just makes sense.
  
• Don’t you hate it when programs add a shiny new feature and force you to use it, even if you absolutely hate it? We do too! If you don’t want to be notified about add-ons at all, now you can disable notifications completely. Just go to the add-on browser options and turn them off.
  
• Ubuntu Maverick packages are now ready for testing.
  
• Strings have been frozen for a while already, but we decided it was important enough to get those settings in for Dharma. So translators please take notice.
  

This late in the release cycle, we are hoping that beta4 is relatively boring. If all goes well, we’ll push out an RC1 soon.

REQUIREMENTS

• Mac OS X 10.4 or later

X-Plane 9.62 - Fly an airplane in this OpenGL-based 3D environment. (Updater)

X-Plane 9.62 - Fly an airplane in this OpenGL-based 3D environment. (Updater): "

X-Plane 9.62

X-Plane is the world\'s most comprehensive, powerful flight simulator, and has the most realistic flight model available for personal computers.

Welcome to the world of props, jets, single- and multi-engine airplanes, as well as gliders, helicopters and VTOLs such as the V-22 Osprey and AV8-B Harrier.

X-Plane comes with subsonic and supersonic flight dynamics, sporting aircraft from the Bell 206 Jet-Ranger helicopter and Cessna 172 light plane to the supersonic SR-71 and Space Shuttle. X-Plane comes with about 40 aircraft spanning the aviation industry (and history), and several thousand more are freely downloadable from the internet. (See www.X-Plane.org as a good place to start).

X-Plane scenery is world-wide, with scenery for the entire planet Earth between -60 and +74 degrees lattiude. We also have MARS scenery! (thanks to the Mars Orbiting Laser Altimeter, which mapped that planet\'s elevation) You can land at any of over 18,000 airports, as well as test your mettle on aircraft carriers, helipads on building tops, frigates that pitch and roll in the waves, and oil rigs.

Weather is variable from clear skies and high visibility to thunderstorms with controllable wind, wind shear, turbulence, and microbursts! Rain, snow and clouds are available for an instrument flying challenge, and thermals are available for the gliders! Real weather conditions can be downloaded from the internet, allowing you to fly in the actual weather that currently exists!

X-Plane also has detailed failure-modeling, with 35 systems that can be failed manually or randomly, when you least expect it! You can fail instruments, engines, flight controls, and landing gear at any moment.

While X-Plane is the world\'s most COMPREHENSIVE flight sim, your purchase also comes with Plane-Maker (to create your own airplanes) World-Maker (to create your own scenery), and Weather Briefer (to get a weather briefing before the flight if you use real weather conditions downloaded from the net).

X-Plane is also extremely customizable, allowing you to easily create textures, sounds, and instrument panels for your own airplanes that you design or the planes that come with the sim.

X-Plane\'s accuracy (in flight model), scope (in aircraft and terrain coverage), versatility (in aircraft type and weather conditions), add-on programs (in aircraft and scenery editors), user-customizability, downloadable aircraft, and downloadable scenery makes it the ULTIMATE flight simulation experience for Macintosh.

BE SURE TO TURN ON THE >BETA< OPTION IN THE INSTALLER BEFORE YOU RUN IT TO GET THE BETA! The demo contains a limited scenery area to keep the download size reasonable, and the joystick runs for 10 minutes only.

WHAT'S NEW

Version 9.62:

• This is one of the most boring updates I have ever done. It just lets the manually-set gear-constants work a bit better is all. If you have been having problems with your airplanes sinking into the ground when you entered manual gear constants or deflections in Plane-Maker, simply open any plane with which you have had problems in plane-maker, let it sit there for a second until the static ground attitude and altitude shown in the lower-right have settled down, and then re-save the airplane.. then it should sit on the ground ok in the sim.

XBMC 10.0-beta3 - Powerful media center tool for Mac or Apple TV. (Free): "

XBMC 10.0-beta3

XBMC is an award winning media center for Mac OS X. The ultimate High Definition hub for all your media, XBMC is easy to use, looks slick, and has a large helpful community.

WHAT'S NEW

Version 10.0-beta3:

Nearly one month after the release of Beta 2, the latest Dharma pre-release is ready for testing. We have been working very hard to to stabilize XBMC for the final release; there have been over 300 commits to the release branch since the last beta. Notable fixes include:

• Lots of Live fixes and clean-ups. We want Dharma Live to work out-of-the-box as much as possible. Those who have been plagued with broken ALSA upgrades and unsupported soundcards will be happy to know that these issues have been resolved. In addition, most ION/ION2 systems should just work ™, though there are a few small issues remaining.
  
• Shoutcast, which is now an add-on, was causing hard-freezes. Now Fixed.
  
• A bug causing redundant http requests has been fixed. Scraper sites (Hi TMDb and TheTVDB!) should see significantly less requests per session.
  
• Several new addons. Many scrapers have been fixed. The popular Transparency! skin is now in the official repository; a total of 9 available even before official release!.
  
• Many more small fixes. Small fixes are good.
  There are still a few known bugs:
  
  
• CrystalHD support is great, but drivers and libraries still require manual intervention for installation in Live/Linux. This may or may not be fixed in time for release.
  
• No packages for Ubuntu Maverick are available as of now. We’re working hard on this.
  
• A few small miscellaneous bugs. Small bugs are bad.

REQUIREMENTS

• Mac OS X 10.4 or later
• Or Apple TV.
