XBMC 11.0.beta3 - Powerful media center tool for Mac or Apple TV.. (Free)

XBMC 11.0.beta3 - Powerful media center tool for Mac or Apple TV.. (Free): "

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.For PPC Version, download here:http://mirrors.xbmc.org/releases/osx/ppc/xbmc-10.1-ppc-repack.dmg

Version 11.0.beta3:

  • As we continue moving toward the release of Eden, more and more fixes are slotting into place. With Beta 3, we’ve fixed playlist issues, altered some misbehaving Library buttons, provided a little more control over the way movie sets are scraped, and cleaned up numerous other small bugs.
  • On top of the many bug fixes though, we are pleased to officially announce the first beta of XBMCbuntu. With this beta release, we have chosen to slightly shift the focus of the pre-built XBMC Live install. In the past, XBMC Live was optimized for a pure set-top box experience. In the switch to XBMCbuntu, we are pushing to a more traditional ‘buntu approach that emphasizes first trying and then ultimately installing XBMC onto the local machine.
  • There are many benefits to this approach. In particular, XBMC is now built upon a full LXDE desktop environment, which has a web browser (Chromium) with a fully updated (and updatable) version of Flash built-in and a GUI package manager ready to install and update all of the normal Ubuntu programs a typical Linux user might use. The user may now toggle between XBMC, which auto-starts, and a normal desktop if he or she chooses. And, perhaps most exciting for many users, XBMC will now be upgradeable, both from command line and from the GUI package manager, without fear of crashing the XBMC experience.
  • Naturally, those users who do not want to see the desktop will never need to. When you boot your computer, you will be booted directly into the XBMC homescreen, just as you are right now. The only clear difference is the new power underneath the hood.
  • For those users experienced in installing XBMC Live, be prepared for a newer, easier graphical installer. Your downloadable Disc Image may be found here. The installer still needs a bit of polish, most notably the slideshow panels, but we will be sure to brush up the cosmetics in time for final release.
  • And for those users of Eden Beta1 and Beta2, as always, your downloads may be found here. Once again, remember this is Beta software, and bugs are likely to appear. Feel free to let us know how your experience is going in the comments below.
  • With Beta 2, XBMC has begun automatically scanning for Movie Collections when using the default movie scraper. With Beta 3, XBMC continues to scan for those collections, but no longer displays Collections by default. To enable Movie Collections, visit System -> Video -> Library, and enable “Group movies in sets.”

DVD Bitrate Calculator Lite 1.3.1 - Estimate DVD-R disc sizes.. (Free): "

DVD Bitrate Calculator Lite is a simple and yet very powerful tool for estimating video bitrates for your DVD-R disk. It supports a variety of media sizes, such as DVD-5, DVD-9, HD-DVD, and BluRay among others. You can specify a number of audio tracks, menus and subtitle tracks that you want to include in your DVD, and this application will spit out the correct bitrate for video compression to achieve best possible quality. You'll also be presented with estimated data sizes.

After you've done your calculations you can easily save the results to a text file to store information, or even better - you can save a Compressor or Episode compression presets that will show up in custom targets list. This feature is awesome and will save you bunch of time as all bitrate settings are already stored in the file.

Want to try it out? Grab a copy for yourself right now!!!

This application comes in two versions: Lite (free) and Pro ($7).

Version 1.3.1:

  • Adjust maximum allowed bitrate limit for DVD media (9Mbps to 9.8 Mbps);
  • Added a 'Welcome' window to report if any of the buttons are disabled;
  • Fixed minor bug: Drag and Drop is disabled while secondary windows are open;

X-Plane 10.04 Beta 2 - Ultra-realistic flight simulator.. (Updater)

X-Plane 10.04 Beta 2 - Ultra-realistic flight simulator.. (Updater): "

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 35 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 74 degrees north to 60 degrees south latitude. We also have MARS scenery! (thanks to the Mars Orbiting Laser Altimeter, which mapped that planet's elevation). On Earth, you can land at any of over 33,000 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 at the location of flight!

X-Plane also has detailed failure-modeling, with multitudes of systems that can be failed manually or randomly, when you least expect it! You can fail instruments, engines, flight controls, landing gear, or dozens of other systems 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) Airfoil-Maker (allowing users to create airfoil performance profiles), and Weather Briefer (to get a weather briefing before the flight if you use real weather conditions downloaded from the internet).

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), customizability, downloadable aircraft, and downloadable scenery makes it the ULTIMATE flight simulation experience for Macintosh, Windows, and Linux platforms.

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. It will run for 10 minutes before it begins to ignore the user's input, at which point the simulator must be restarted to fly more.



Version 10.04 Beta 2:
  • All buttons on the FMS's should work properly even if there are two different FMS's in the airplane.
  • Wind-shear and turbulence model refined a little more to be more complex in it's randomness, and not always quite so strong in what are requested to be moderate conditions, and to change in a reasonable way with altitude. This should help improve wind and turbulence modeling, especially with Real-Weather turned on.
  • X-15 drop and Space-Shuttle-carry missions should work properly now.
  • Right-mouse drag to look around in 3-D cockpit command-look view, and mouse scroll wheel zooms. This is a pretty convenient way to look around the 3-D cockpits. (This works in "command" look mode, not mouse look mode! So when you are not right-mouse dragging, the view stays still and you can manipulate the 3-d panel.)
  • Track-IR functions in ALL 3-d cockpit views now... It has WORKED for years, but is now easier to find since it engages in ALL 3-d cockpit views, not just one.
  • Cool new feature for QuickTime movies: Movie quality! Set it high or low depending on how good you want it to look... and how much disk space you want to burn!
  • External visuals should sync-up faster in the multi-machine setups, which should save some time in real flight-training scenarios.
  • Landing lights, spotlights, and spotlight aiming-angles all go from master machine to external visuals now.
  • Plane-Maker system screen: Option to auto-load with current values, or not, airspeed, vertical speed, and altitude when a new autopilot mode is engaged.
  • Visibility tuned to change with altitude in a more accurate way to follow the reported weather more closely.
  • AI planes should be better about holding desired altitude now, resulting in less annoyed air traffic controllers.
  • Fixed: incorrect warnings about missing scenery
  • Fixed (partly): the ocean shading should have fewer sharp lines on it. Far view shading of the ocean is still a work in progress...more color tuning in a future beta.
  • Fixed: wing flex now works - X-Plane was incorrectly zeroing out wing-flex on some v10 planes.
  • Fixed: sharp turns in taxiway lines now render correctly at KSEA and other airports.
  • Fixed: right button on Linux is now the "right" button, not the scroll wheel itself.
  • Fixed: plugins won't crash if they try to read the weather from XPluginStart
Facades:
  • Roof behaviors now match v9 for legacy facades
  • A bunch of new features to control the exact appearance of facade-attached objects - docs coming soon!
  • New facade features: attached objects on facades appear and disappear with "objects" rendering setting for better performance.

Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.4 - Easy-to-use backup/cloning utility.. (Free)

Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.4 - Easy-to-use backup/cloning utility.. (Free): "

Carbon Copy Cloner is an easy-to-use backup utility:
Clone, synchronize, backup. Schedule and forget it. Try it 'til you trust it.

In its simplest form, CCC will clone one hard drive to another, copying every single block or file to create an exact replica of your source hard drive. This is very useful if, for example, your laptop is damaged and you must send it in for repair.

CCC can also be used to perform regular backups of your data. When you select a source disk in CCC, you are presented with the contents of that disk (hidden items too). Simply uncheck the items that you do not want to backup, and CCC will provide ample indication what will and will not be copied. Select a target disk to which you would like to backup, then press the clone button.

The key to a successful backup plan is to actually do the backups regularly. When left to a human, the task often gets tacked on to the end of a very long list of other things to do. When you eventually have a catastrophe, the data is simply gone. You know that feeling -- you just lost six years of family photos. Your kids being born, their first birthdays, their first everything. The answer to this is consistent and regular backups, placed on a schedule and handled automatically by your computer. CCC includes that functionality, and takes it even further.



Version 3.4.4:
  • Made several changes to the preset configurations. Both the wording and some of the settings have been changed in response to user feedback and typical usage scenarios.
  • New feature: CCC now provides support for archiving and cloning the Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Recovery HD partition. Choose "Disk Center" from CCC's Window menu to find this functionality.
  • New feature: Scheduled tasks can now be configured to wake or boot the system when the task is scheduled to run.
  • New feature: For users with a Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Installer application in /Applications, CCC's Source menu now includes a handy "Create a Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Installer..." choice that will clone the Mac OS X 10.7 Lion Installation disk image onto a physical volume.
  • Window positioning of the scheduled task helper application is now retained on a per-task basis, so you can move these windows around on your screen and multiple tasks won't be stacked on top of each other.
  • CCC will now mention the lack of a Recovery HD partition in the Cloning Coach prior to running the initial backup task.
  • The table of scheduled tasks in the Scheduler window are now sorted alphabetically by default.
  • Fixed a scheduler issue in which tasks scheduled to run on the first (any weekday) of the current month would be scheduled to run in the following month.
  • Fixed an issue in which CCC was not "remembering" the last preset that had been selected upon relaunching CCC.
  • Fixed an issue with the German localization related to the application of a particular setting in custom presets.
  • Fixed an issue in which a scheduled task had trouble mounting a disk image when uncommon permissions conditions were present (such as when a system is bound to an Active Directory directory service).
  • The "This volume will be bootable" message is back, though with a caveat that I have to insist upon from a support perspective. Many external hard drive enclosures still manage to screw up the boot process, and it's impossible for me to determine if that is going to happen for any particular user from within CCC.
  • When backing up to a subfolder, CCC now overlays an icon of the underlying volume on the folder icon in the task status panel.
  • Scheduled tasks that specify a network volume as the destination are now aborted when CCC receives a sleep notification.
  • Growl notifications should now work properly on Mac OS X 10.7 Lion with Growl 1.3.
  • Email notifications now include the sender's full name.
  • Fixed a couple minor bugs associated with email notifications.
  • Fixed an issue in which the scheduled task window would be unresponsive while CCC waited for a response from an email server.
  • Added support for sending email to servers that use a self-signed certificate. This support is disabled by default, see the documentation for details on enabling this functionality.
  • Resolved a problem in which an errant filter would protect items in folders that were to be deleted, resulting in CCC reporting that it couldn't replace a particular folder or application.
  • Fixed a minor 5-second shutdown hang associated with CCC scheduled tasks.
  • Numerous tweaks to the advice that CCC offers for various error conditions.
  • Fixed some Mac OS X 10.7 Lion-specific problems with the mounting of sparsebundle disk image files that are hosted on a network volume.
  • If you're running an ad hoc task in CCC (e.g. click "Clone" in the main window), CCC will ask before deleting anything from the _CCC Archives folder. To avoid problems that would affect automation, this warning is not provided for scheduled tasks.
  • CCC is more proactive about dealing with the 4GB file size limitation of FAT32 volumes. Files larger than 4GB will now be excluded by default, and you'll get a warning of this exclusion before running the task.
  • Fixed a hang that would occur at the end of a scheduled task while CCC tried to unmount the destination volume (network volumes only, Mac OS X 10.7 Lion only).
  • Made some cosmetic changes concerning ZFS support.
  • Mail account settings on Mac OS X 10.7 Lion are now properly imported and populated into the email notifications tab of the scheduled tasks window.
  • The path to a disk image file is now properly provided as the fourth argument to postflight scripts.
  • Fixed a 30 second hang that would occur while saving changes to scheduled tasks on Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. For every OS, though, saving scheduled tasks should be considerably faster.
