http://audioslicer.sourceforge.net/

AudioSlicer is a Cocoa GUI application that finds all silences in an audio file and allows you to split it into several smaller audio files and to name/tag them properly. For now only MP3 is supported but other audio formats may be added in the future.
While most other tools doing this split automatically according to certain criteria, AudioSlicer shows you all silences within a certain range of duration. You can then listen to the silence - well, to the audio before and after the silence really - and then you decide if you want to split there.
The splitting is done without loss, there is no decoding and re-encoding of audio data taking place.

ah, i just made the best thing ever

use expose with hot corners -- have one display desktop and one display all windows. use the display desktop to find files you need

then drag it into theother corner to find the window to drop it in

MAGNIFIQUE!

Best RSS reader I've ever used: Newsfire.

It's only at version 0.2, but it shits on NetNewsWire and Shrook already. And it's free!

jon do you use a stickies alternative?

Thanx for the RSS reader! My life may never be the same....

― Aaron W (Aaron W), Friday, 10 September 2004 03:35 (twenty-one years ago)

maybe y'all can help me. I'm looking for two things...

I used to think I was a Mac genius. When stuff didn't work I knew what prefs to delete and which extension was conflicting with which extension and how some font was causing a post-script error blah blah blah.

But now with OSX I'm lost.

Lately my computer seems to be running slow, as does my internet connection. The latter I first blamed on the RNC, increased net traffic in the NYC area, FBI monitoring everything or whatever, but now on both parts, I wonder if I didn't mess something up, installed some crappy thing or clogged this or that. Limewire used to be fast and now I'm lucky if it works, for instance.

What are good utilities? Is there a good simple utility that can tell me what speed my cable modem is working at? What about a Norton style thing? I was never a fan of Norton's because I heard it could occasionally do more pain then good, but I need a "spring cleaning" or something, but I'm not about to go into my libraries folder and start deleting things.

I don't mind spending money...

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Saturday, 11 September 2004 19:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Get (free) MacJanitor for a start and run that. That speeded mine up a bit. I think it's pretty safe.

For a speed test, I don't think you need to buy anything - just go to an online speed test like http://www.adslguide.org.uk/tools/speedtest.asp and it will tell you how your connection is going.

― Alba (Alba), Saturday, 11 September 2004 19:25 (twenty-one years ago)

And of course, run Disk Utility's 'Repair Permissions' yadda yadda. Perhaps you've done all that kind of thing.

― Alba (Alba), Saturday, 11 September 2004 19:28 (twenty-one years ago)

try Xupport

― jed_ (jed), Saturday, 11 September 2004 20:13 (twenty-one years ago)

also keep 10% of your disk free, i'v got a puny 10G HD and if I get down near only 1G free everything stats flipping out

big kudos for the link to "Download Comment" - i've been looking for this for ages as well

― You've Got to Pick Up Every Stitch (tracerhand), Saturday, 11 September 2004 20:31 (twenty-one years ago)

one website brought me to a tiny thing called Bandwith Optimizer. Just before running it I did a CNET bandwith test and registered 53.5kbps. Then I installed it and ran it again and got 2562.8kbps. We'll see if this is a good and lasting thing and not a fluke. the CNET think I think is an american version of the adslguide.org test, but I'll try that as well.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Saturday, 11 September 2004 20:32 (twenty-one years ago)

and now it's slow again. Maybe this is related to the people who moved in downstairs. Must be porn freaks.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Saturday, 11 September 2004 20:38 (twenty-one years ago)

ok. sorry, one last thing...tell me if this sounds indicitive of things. LimeWire always worked fine and fast for me, with a consistent connection. Lately, the "quality" bars on the lower left corner keep fluctuating between turbocharched, excellent, good, poor, up and down, while the downloading files will say 2 minutes, then 3 then 4 then 20 then just stop. only to kick in again for a second, only to stop again. What does this sound like? any ideas?

Tomato Torrent is pretty good as a bittorrent client.

― 57 7th (calstars), Friday, 17 September 2004 20:36 (twenty-one years ago)

ed's thing is cool.

tomato torrent: I have no idea how that works : / cd you explain?

― cºzen (Cozen), Friday, 17 September 2004 20:46 (twenty-one years ago)

It's for downloading tomatoes, but it doesn't work.

― Alba (Alba), Saturday, 18 September 2004 10:57 (twenty-one years ago)

cozen have you not been initiated into the bittorrent circle?

― 57 7th (calstars), Saturday, 18 September 2004 11:14 (twenty-one years ago)

no :(

Basically bittorrent files are very small, and when you open one the program goes out and searches among the internet for other people who have the file open, and you download and upload and receive the file (mp3, video, whatever) that way. It's just another P2P application.

suprnova.org used to be the standard for bittorrent files, but I think it has been down now for a few weeks or so. Tomato torrent is just a program that lets you manage your bittorrent downloads and uploads...sort of like a download manager on your browser.

A google search for "bittorrent os x" can provide you with download links, etc.

― 57 7th (calstars), Saturday, 18 September 2004 11:55 (twenty-one years ago)

Dan, ive noticed that "quality" fluctuation on limewire recently and also the fact that any search will now bring up alot of pretty unrelated stuff. For example searching "isaac hayes ikes rap" the other day gave me hundreds of results for things with just "rap" or "ike" in the title as well as alot of seemingly automatically generated things called "isaac_hayes_ikes_rap" at about 100k each - ads? spam?

― jed_ (jed), Saturday, 18 September 2004 11:56 (twenty-one years ago)

I never get that on Acqlite - try that...
