| SmartApps – New private torrent tracker for Windows, Mac, Linux software Posted: 31 Dec 2008 02:46 AM CST We've posted about many private torrent trackers on FILEnetworks Blog but there have only been very few articles on dedicated software (appz or application) trackers such as Appz BitShock, Appzuniverse, LinuxTracker and TuxDistro. SmartApps is a private torrent tracker specializing in software for Windows, Mac and Linux platforms. It's the sister site of Dynamic-Universe, a new general tracker we reviewed earlier. 
As we said SmartApps is quite new and has only around 260 members (at the time this post is being written). There are however over 400 torrents indexed on this tracker. Majority of the content comprise of scene releases of Windows applications. Additionally, there are some Mac, Linux appz as well as smaller PC games available on SmartApps. 
One thing I noticed is that even though this tracker currently has a small user base, most of the new torrents have 4-5 seeders each. This is adequate (and better than some general trackers which have 1 seeder on every torrent) and provides satisfactory download speeds most of the time. As of this moment, SmartApps is open for new registrations. You get 1GB free upload credit upon signup. Don't forget to check it out.

P.S.- GFXnews and AudioNews are both open at the moment. If you like graphics design/3d animation/music editing software, check them out. |
| AnyDVD HD v6.5.0.3 & AnyDVD 6.5.0.3 – Rip or backup copy protected DVD and Blu-Ray disks Posted: 31 Dec 2008 12:54 AM CST Updated builds of AnyDVD and AnyDVD HD have been released. You should be familiar with these apps by now but if you don't know, AnyDVD is a software that can bypass many DVD and Blu-Ray copy protection schemes. It's developed by SlySoft who were the first to crack the BD+ (Blu-Ray) copy protection scheme. When run in combination with DVD ripper applications such as CloneDVD, this is one of the easiest methods to make backups of copy protected/encrypted DVD and Blu Ray disks. Version 6.5.03 includes support for the new BD+ copy protection system. AnyDVD and AnyDVDHD were also discussed in our previous post located here. 
Developer Description AnyDVD is a driver, which descrambles DVD-Movies automatically in the background. This DVD appears unprotected and region code free for all applications and the Windows operating system as well. With AnyDVD's help copy tools like CloneDVD, Pinnacle Instant Copy, InterVideo DVD-Copy, etc. are able to copy CSS protected Movies. You can remove the RPC region code, thereby making the movie region free and viewable on any DVD player and with any DVD player software. With the help of AnyDVD you can watch movies with non matching region codes with every DVD Player Software you like. AnyDVD is capable of removing unwanted movie features, including subtitles and prohibition messages such as copyright and FBI warnings. It also allows you to launch an external application whenever inserting or removing a disc, or prevent 'PC-friendly' software from automatically launching when inserting a video DVD. AnyDVD decrypts not just DVDs: AnyDVD allows you also to play, copy and rip protected Audio CDs! Decryption is not all that AnyDVD offers. You can control the drive speed of your DVD drive, allowing you to reduce the noise level when watching movies on your PC. You can even adjust the display frequency of your monitor for both NTSC and PAL displays. Read comments for more information. |
| RevolutionTT Holiday IRC Bonus – Win gigabytes of free upload credit Posted: 30 Dec 2008 02:05 PM CST First of all let me tell you that this news will only be useful to existing members of RevolutionTT tracker. Since we have posted several times about RevTT open signups before, I assume we have a good number of readers who are already RevTT members. The good news is that RevTT have launched Holiday IRC bonus once again. This is one of the easiest ways to win free upload credit on this tracker. 
There is a detailed forum post on RevTT which explains this contest in detail. Paragraph below is quoted from this post: Holiday Bonus runs from December 29th 2008 - January 5th 2009. You must join the #RevolutionTT IRC channel. If you are in the channel when the highest user peak is recorded you will receive the associated credit shown below. If the number of users in #Revolutiontt are as followed: - 1000-1499 - gets you 10gb
- 1500-1999 - gets you 15gb
- 2000-2499 - gets you 20gb
- 2500-2999 - gets you 25gb
- 3000+ - gets you 30gb
For Example... On Sat 3rd Jan 09 the channel hits 2800 users and your in the channel then after the competition ends. You would receive 25GB UPLOAD CREDIT! One of the best things about the Holiday bonus is that all users logged onto IRC (including those who are idling) will receive the bonus as opposed to just 1-3 members in most other competitions. How to join RevolutionTT IRC Channel: There are several ways to do this. In all instances you need to login with your site nickname and use the unique IRC key – the channel is invite only. 1. Login to RevolutionTT and use the built in IRC chat page at https://www.revolutiontt.net/chat.php. You will need to have the Java Runtime Environment installed (Download it free from here) in order to load the chat widget.
OR
2. Use a 3rd party IRC chat client such as mIRC to login to RevTT IRC Channel (It's easy to idle this way since you can keep the application minimized to tray just like IM software). - If you don't have mIRC installed, download and install it. A quick search for 'mIRC' on RevTT will give you everything you need. After mIRC installation in complete, shut down and restart your web browser.
- Set the mIRC nickname to your RevolutionTT username (Tools—>Options—>Connect-->NickName)
- Login to RevolutionTT and visit https://www.revolutiontt.net/irc.php. You will see a command in the page. This is usually similar to:
/RevoTT !invite NICK abcdefggherhjklghfdjkhfds
(This command is unique to each username). Copy this command to clipboard. - Now click this link –> irc://irc.revolutiontt.net. Choose to open the link with mIRC when your web browser prompts.
- If mIRC presents you with a 'Link Request' window, choose 'Change to the new server' option and press ok.
- Once connected, type the command you copied on step 2 into the console and press enter. You will be invited to the #RevolutionTT channel.
Currently there are 1500+ users online. This number will rise as the news spreads – don't be left out. |
| RunAsDate 1.05 – Set program specific dates and times without changing system time Posted: 30 Dec 2008 11:46 PM CST Run As Date is a rather uncommon but pretty useful piece of software. It allows you to run specific programs with date and time settings of your choice. RunAsDate is basically a launcher which injects (no actual program modifications) user specified date and time settings to applications launched through it. Your system time will remain unchanged but the launched apps will believe the current date and time to be the one specified by Run As Date. This application can help you with those 'trial or beta period expired' error messages – majority of such time limited installers will let you install expired trials or betas if you run them with appropriate date/time settings. This is just one use of RunAsDate and I'm sure you'll find many other scenarios where this application will be useful. Note: If you have AVG Anti Virus or Internet Security, you may get a Trojan horse alert when trying to use this application. This is a false positive and is not actually a virus. 
Developer Description RunAsDate is a small utility that allows you to run a program in the date and time that you specify. This utility doesn't change the current system date and time of your computer, but it only injects the date/time that you specify into the desired application.
You can run multiple applications simultaneously, each application works with different date and time, while the real date/time of your system continues to run normally. More information can be found on the app homepage. Read comments for more information. |
