Request Apps

I use this audio player as a general music player on my home computer because it's small and does the job i want. Recently i tried putting it on my USB Drive to keep my other portable apps company, hoping it would work as it doesnt create any reg key entries.

As i suspected it worked like a charm and now im sharing my find with you. If you want a fast, low cpu/ram music player which you can take on the road with you check out this piece of software.

I'm using the Billy 1.03 (no setup) version.

If anyone is interested in making a launcher for it like the other portable apps please contact the author of the software at:

K-lite mega codec pack:

1) It is totally open source

2) Up to date

3) Already includes a portable Media Player Classic

4) Just needs the codecs to be portoble
4a) or integrate codecs with already portable media player classic

5) The mega package already has quicktime alternative and realplayer alternative>>>> BOTH OPEN SOURCE!!!!!

THAT my friends... is the ultimate media player that plays 99.9% of all media types......

Please let it become portable

AudioCity can't do everything. Somebody should make something like this portable!

I found another portable OS while suurfing the net. It's at http://www.metropipe.net/pvpm.php and it's linux that runs w/o needing to reboot

Developed specifically for portable use, lightweight audio player for Windows XP.

I've actually tried this one. Copying and pasting winamp folder and transfering it to a usb drive...then pasting it to my disk space on my school's network. It opened and worked but I always got this message that some file was missing. Could you please look into that, would appreciate it. Thanks.

This seems like it shouldn't be too difficult to make portable. I'd very much like to not have to use FireFTP and ChatZilla via Firefox(because it takes a long time to load up on my portable drive -- I'm blaming the USB1.1 interface at work on that), and XULRunner seems to be the answer to that, but it makes entries in the registry and I don't know the first thing about making an app portable. If this has already been done and I somehow missed it in my search, I'd be glad for a shove in the right direction.

More often than not I have problems using Realplayer to play some streaming realmedia file. Often it cannot find the proper codecs or the codecs can't be installed (or else something else goes wrong). So I've stopped using Realplayer and started using Real Alternative (which works much better than the original). It would be great if this could be made into a portable app. It can be found at http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Real_Alternative.htm

Something that would really make my life easy is a Dynamic IP Updater in a Postable App.

First of all I just want to say how much I enjoy this website and appreciate all the work of the many talented individuals who 1st wrote the software and 2nd those who made it portable. That said, I's like to share what's on my Portable Apps wishlist, so without further ado, my list is as follows:

StarDict Portable - Dictionary Software
Scribus Portable - Desktop Publishing
Grisbi Portable - Personal Finance Manager
Notepad++ Portable - Programmer's Text Editor
Celestia Portable - Astronomy App
MediaCoder Portable - Audio/Video Encoder
Ethereal Portable - Well known security tool
nmap Portable - Well known security tool
