For the last few days, I've become a Dropbox junkie. The online backup part is nice, but the real-time sync between computers (I have 3 laptops) is just plain awesome. You can even set up a shared folder between friends D:

Yes, it's bound to the limit of the free basic account (the first paid choice, 50gb, is too much for me), but for regular files it's gre-a-to :D

How do you make it so it doesn't zoom to fit by default?

There is no way to do so by default but for me in Gwenview 2.4.3 there is a Fit and 100% button in the bottom toolbar to toggle between the 2 modes. It seems to be a pretty new feature so if you don't have it try grabbing the latest version off the gwenview site, *buntu repos have always been slow to update in my experience =/ There is no way to set which mode is on by default afaik though, it's always set on "Fit" by default so you gotta change it every time you start the program.

If you're still looking for a sequential image viewer/manga reader I'd highly recommend QComicBook. It's also Qt4 based so doubt you'll need any extra libs to use it, assuming you already got gwenview up and running. It also reads from zip/rar archives and I've found it flexible enough for my needs, give it a try

Yeah, having to disable zoom to fit every time is annoying.

But QComicBook seems to do the job right. So thanks for sharing it.

What would be a good free program for convetering mkv to avi? One that does do subtitles. I have been trying several and some say they do subtitles but they don't. I was using AlltoAvi. But that one isn't working right now. So I need one simlar I think to it. thanks

P.S. Please keep in mind that I suck at understanding computer or complex things so an easy one please!!! thanks

My new printer (HP DeskJet 4580 connected by wireless) didn't come with any photo printing software so I need a piece of software that will do the following...

1. Fit the image to the page for printing (without lopping bits off) with either minimum or no input required to do so.

2. It should work with printers connected wirelessly.

Before anyone suggests GIMP I already have that installed (and have for a while) and it wouldn't send to the printer and the only other program I have installed (corel snapfire) will fit the image to the page but it always cuts bits of the original image (and it isn't that good at upscaling images).

I have been given the option to download windows live photo gallery through the HP printer software so would that do what I need (if there isn't any other suggestions for suitable software).

SeijiSensei · 2010-07-28, 07:03

Irfanview gets a lot of good reviews as a graphics viewer.

Whether the software can print to a wireless printer should depend on whether the computer has a definition for the printer. Nearly all Windows software I know of prints via the operating system rather than talking directly to the printer across the network.

It could just be that my version of GIMP is woefully out of date since I installed it well over a year ago (but then I did install corel snapfire just after I built this computer but then what do I know).

I need a backup software that do this:

1- Can select what to backup and where. Like select a directory and have it write backup in another drive in a specific folder
2- Can schedule a daily backup.
3- When backing up in the destination folder is MUST NOT overwrite the other backups. So what I really need is the program to creating files with different names not deleting or overwriting old backups.
4- Must be freeware.

pretty sure cobian backup does all that.

I am looking for an excutable uncompiler. I lost my old hard drive and left with only various version of the excutables for my visual novel game. RPG VX/Ruby was what compiled the game, I want to be able to uncompile but having no luck finding a program that does it effectively.

Right now I am trying to figure out where my BSOD are coming from. The only recent stuff I installed was the lastest winamp.

Uninstalled it. Now I need an alternative to winamp while I wait to see if a BSOD happens or not.

Anyone know any? I got this one called MusicBee but I dont quite like it's interface. Functions ok thou.

Random32 · 2013-04-11, 08:47

VLC man. Da bes media player evvarz.

Umm. Have you tried FooBar2000? What about just going with older version of WinAmp?

btw, have you looked through BlueScreenView and run Prime95 and Memtest to try and catch other problems? Updating WinAmp doesn't really seem like a BSOD inducing change to me.

erneiz_hyde · 2013-04-11, 08:55

Foobar is the best audio player for me. Haven't got away from it after trying it a few years back.

What is the BSOD error code ?

Tiberium Wolf · 2013-04-11, 11:13

This was probably caused by the following module: win32k.sys (win32k+0xBDD91)
Bugcheck code: 0x1000008E (0xFFFFFFFFC0000005, 0xFFFFFFFF9AEFDD91, 0xFFFFFFFF9CE7CB98, 0x0)
Error: KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M

This was probably caused by the following module: hal.sys (hal!KfLowerIrql+0x61)
Bugcheck code: 0x8E (0xFFFFFFFFC0000005, 0xFFFFFFFF9AEFDD91, 0xFFFFFFFF9CE7CB98, 0x0)
Error: KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED

I get these 2 from info of the mini dumps. The only software I installed recently was the lastest winamp with winamp essentials.
I already tested the mem and nothing. Cleaned the dust in pc removing the mem and putting them back and still got a BSOD this morning. Updated all windows updates. Updated video drivers. The BSOD is kind random. Dunno when it happens.

Maybe I should make a thread of this.

I just did a quick google and both of those blue screens were caused by a memory access violation.

Also have you checked for any BIOS updates since that has been listed as a fix to the problem (also disabling and BIOS memory options such as caching and shadowing have also been mentioned as a way to fix it).

Need something which can screencapture and also edit video with basic functionality (maybe insert music, etc): tons of options out there, would like a suggestion.

//
Something that can add captions with special effects would really help. (ie: special text effects such as how certain fansubs have fade in/fade out lyrics)
