Request Apps

I came across this open source app that can pull media information from media files. It appears to handle both audio & video. I've copy from their website some of the information that it gets from files, and some of the media files the app supports:

What information can I get from MediaInfo?

* General: title, author, director, album, track number, date, duration...
* Video: codec, aspect, fps, bitrate...
* Audio: codec, sample rate, channels, language, bitrate...
* Text: language of subtitle
* Chapters: number of chapters, list of chapters

Hi All

I would like to request a PortableApps version of Dia for Windows. This application is an alternate choice to MS Visio and is licensed under the GPL.

Also come to think of it, it would be cool if John packegd an premade verson of Mac-On-Stick as an portable app!

I know that John - usually - does no beta versions.

BUT this one may be worth an exception since

a) 7-Zip v.4.42 is quite old meanwhile and
b) the actual 4.51 beta is not a "real" beta but an advanced version close to final (it runs veeery stable like all its predecessors and does - besides some new functions - contain lots of bugfixes over v.4.42)

Maybe worth the hassle of some pre-release Beta testing since it should be easy to update...

I was looking through the portable freeware website, and I saw this open source project that might make an interesting addition to the operating systems list.

It's a DOS emulator. Based on the discription, it not only creates a dos session, but emulates an older PC. I guess the idea is to allow older dos programs to run in an environment that they're origionally designed for.

tools to encrypt files based on GPG (gnu privacy guard)

Can InfraRecorder(CD/DVD writing software) be turned portable? and also Battle for Wesnoth(Computer game)? and Inkscape(vector graphic editor)?

Blender 3D is an open source GPL 3D modeling,animation and rendering suite.

Should be easy to make it a 'PortableApp'

I just found [LINK REMOVED]. It is in german and already portable. I think it would be a nice addition to the Games-section. I dont know about the licensae though (I think it is only freeware).

I always use macs and i can live without the portable apps menu
