  1. OK, it was about time for me to sign up. I had some other problems, but now it's all creared and I'm all ready for testing.

    I've 2 boxes - Windows 2003 Server Standard and Ubuntu Linux

    Opera and IE6 and Firefox on the win

    Opera, Konqueror, Mozilla and Firefox on the Linux

    routers to play with and plenty of other boxes to test from

  2. Alpha-Toxic, try CCCP codec pack =

    http://cccp-project.net/

    Looks nice, "specifically built for playing anime" :)

    I'm not going to try it right now, though, cause I'll need to uninstall my current codecs first. Chances are after the un/re/installs sth will not work...

    btw, do you think the "CCCP" is intentionl? And all this red color at the back?

  3. In general you're right, but I've never had any problems with this particular codec pack and I've been able to play some very badly corrupted videos that some friends of mine couldn't with their "normal" codecs.

    btw, if you think that K-Lite is too big, take a look at this. It's a 50MB installer!!! As I recall it could even check your box for viruses at installation... now if this is not overdone, I don't know what is....

  4. I'm using K-Lite Mega Codec Pack. This thing is HUGE (over 100MB with everything installed), but it has EVERYTHING needed to decode or encode ANY file (including QuickTime and Real Codecs). I haven't found a single file I can't play over an year now.

    Of course if you don't need the encoding tools you can use K-Lite Standard or Basic. Those will still play practicaly everything and are several times smaller than the Mega. Basic actually can fit on a floppy, though it doesn't play everything.

  5. I've just submitted a patch to the wine list which fixes the problem of torrents not starting after uTorrent version 1.1.3. The next version of wine should support the latest uTorrent! I'd also be happy to answer any questions about what wasn't working.

    CapnBry, I love you!!! ;) I'm trying it right away.

    btw, does the sourceforge repo contain the latest ver with the patch or I should compile it by my self?

    for windows: you should try KillCopy, a killer app that integrates in the shell and allows you to copy/move files with support for pause/resume, speed limit... and it even copies faster than windows itself... it's even skinnable!!!
