Tokyo Expose 0.1

Monday, May 19th, 2008

Tokyo Expose 0.1 / May 19 2008

Little application to somewhat simulate the Mac/Linux(KDE?) effect that shows live thumbnails of all open applications on screen. The thumbnails update in real time and light up when you hover the mouse over.

Simply run it; when you hover your mouse over the TOP-RIGHT corner of the screen, the expose will activate, and:
left-clicking a window = bring it up
right-clicking a window = close that program
left-clicking the desktop window = minimize all programs
ESC = cancel

To close it, click “exit” from the tray-icon menu

Requirements: Windows Vista 32/64 bits

Download: http://techsuki.net/apps/TokyoExpose/TokyoExpose.exe

TokyoFileSearch 0.1

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

This is a very simple and lite application to index and search for files in your hard disks. Tired of the lame and cpu-intensive file search stuff in windows I decided to make my own. It needs to be manually re-indexed when you add new files but it suits my needs.

 

Download: http://techsuki.net/apps/TokyoFileSearch/TokyoFileSearch.exe (322 KB)

Runs in Windows 95 to Vista, either 32 or 64 bits. Does NOT require .net shit.
Simply download and run it somewhere. It will create a file called “index.db” when you run the indexer, in the same exe folder, don’t delete it.

Consider it a beta since there is a lot to be done, it’s very raw now.. but does its job. Check back later for updates.

MPC Tokyo PlayList

Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

This is a very simple program to make a playlist for MPC (Media Player Classic).

To install it, simply copy it to your windows user’s SendTo folder:
- in XP: C:\Documents and Settings\User\SendTo
- in Vista: C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

Then you can rigth-click a folder > Send To > MPCTokyoPlayList, or simply drag a folder to the exe; it will then generate a file called “playlist.mpcpl” inside that folder, which can be opened with MPC and adds every filename as a consecutive track in the playlist.

Download: http://techsuki.net/apps/MPCTokyoPlayList/MKVTokyoPlayList.exe (43 KB)

As for the weird name of the app.. there’s no real reason, I just love Tokyo.
Works from Windows95 to Vista, 32 and 64 bit and these extensions: avi mpg mp4 rmbv mkv mov ogm divx vob wmv

MAL Updater v1.0

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Welcome to MAL UPDATER - v1.0, 2008/02/20

MAL Updater is a Windows application that connects to your MAL user profile and updates your currently watching episodes on the go. It detects when you are using Media Player Classic, then retrieves and identifies the anime media being played. If it matches one in your list and the episode is higher than the last one you watched, it will update it automatically. You can let it run in the background and forget about updating your list after every episode :)

MAL is the most featured anime and manga comunity in the net and lets you catalogue all your anime/manga easily. Click the banner to visit the updater club

Requirements:
- Microsoft Windows OS, from Win95 to Vista, 32 and 64 bit editions supported.
- .NET is NOT required
- Internet connection
- You must use Media Player Classic (included in k-lite codec pack http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm )
- If you use a firewall, you might need to give it permissions to access techsuki.net (for program updates) and myanimelist.net (list retrieval and episode updates)

More players will be supported eventually, including videos from YouTube watched in your browser.
It might also work in linux by using wine, however it would be restricted to manual updates unless you use MPC as well.

Two themes are included in the install, the default one and a very basic one. Visit the Gallery below for more. A theme maker could be provided in the future to make your own. Meanwhile, you can request one in the MAL CLUB forum by providing an image and picking a color for window transparency.

A call to boycott youtube

Friday, October 26th, 2007

Youtube has recently installed a program in their servers to mass detect and delete copyrighted videos.

 

As you have probably heard, they are going nazi about it and indiscriminately mass banning and closing accounts. Mine was suddenly banned because of a couple of 30 seconds short clips from Family Guy; I got 2 emails sent notyfing me about the removal, next thing I knew the following day my account was banned. No explanations from youtube, while other people have complete episodes and they are still active.

 

It’s happening all over.

 

If it’s hapenned to you, make sure all your friends and contacts know about this and delete their uploaded videos from their accounts in a call to have google know they are being a fucking bunch of nazis mass banning accounts for no valid reasons.
