Yeah, I finally got around to it.

Nah, I mentioned it to John, but he didn't seem to happy about the idea. It may get changed to xVST in the future, but, until then, we'll stick with the obscenely long full name

see you guys on wednesdays!

Could be useful, but I already have DownloadHelper on Mozilla Firefox.

Bruce - September 29, 2008 - 11:29pm

Yeah, aren't there a few Firefox extensions that do this already? A browser extension is better than a standalone app for something like this, IMO...

The only problem is, there are several problems.

:( You get a .flv don't you?

OliverK (Homepage) - September 30, 2008 - 10:18am

:( You get a .flv don't you? What if you prefer .avi\mp4\wma or don't run FFP )gasp(?

I'm lazy, so I use the Firefox on the college computers. But, I do use xVST.

DownloadHelper has a conversion utility too..

works with windows vista

millarrp - October 2, 2008 - 9:12pm

So far it works well with Vista Ultimate SP1, and leaves nothing obvious behind.

Am downloading and will try

horusofoz - October 2, 2008 - 9:52pm

Am downloading and will try soon. however would suggest to go ahead with the name change.

bubazoo - October 7, 2008 - 1:43am

yeah I can see this program being very useful, and who wants to download another firefox extension that may not work with future Firefox versions? I don't install ANY firefox extensions that aren't already included with Firefox, for that very reason.

I only wish there was an easy way to remove the "YouTube" logo from videos without having to edit the videos entirely. I can see this being used only for good, because I have some YouTube videos about what life is like being blind, that would be a great help to put on my website, which you can't do easily without uploading the videos to your webserver directly, so I can see this being extremely useful to me for that reason.

(ok, sorry, didn't know links weren't allowed in sigs, it does not say in the rules, so thanks for informing me.)

Seems to work well...nothing

ZachHudock - October 8, 2008 - 2:44pm

Seems to work well...nothing obvious left behind, one suggestion though, disable the update checker and auto-update installer by default.

I'll do a update in a little bit, maybe this week end (I has a computer back!) so I'll get a new version running and go ahead with the name change to xVST

Is there a reason these keys can't just be deleted? Will it mess something up with Windows?

Too much to handle I think...
the mru and muicache stuff really doesnt mean anything, absolutely everything that runs on the system will have an entry in one or both of those.

I think their names cant be generalised so the launcher would have to search for them which is difficult to code I think.

Base program issues. Depends on where your downloading from, I've heard that that matters.
