Mac Rewind Der Wöchentliche Rückblick Auf Die Apple-Welt Von Mactechnews.De Und Tunetable.Net Mac Rewind Der wöchentliche Rückblick auf die Apple-Welt von MacTechNews.de und tunetable.net Kalenderwoche 39 - Ausgabe 35 Inhalt Editorial .............................................................. 2 Aperture & Lightroom ...................................3 Tools, Utilities & Stuff ........................................... 6 Stories & Updates ................................................ 8 FAQ & Tipps ......................................................... 9 Impressum ......................................................... 10 Liebe Leser Der Höhepunkt dieses Monats in Sachen Technik ist die Photokina in Köln. Auch Apple nimmt dieses Jahr an der größten Fotofachmesse der Welt teil und präsentiert in erster Linie seine professionelle Fotoverwaltungs- und Entwicklungssoftware Aperture. Diese Ausgabe steht daher ganz im Zeichen der Messe mit ihren Neu- heiten. Dabei können wir selbstver- ständlich nicht sämtliche Neuvorstel- lungen abhandeln und erheben keinen Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit. Ein gro- ßer Teil der Neuheiten wurde ohnehin schon in den Wochen vor der Photo- kina bekannt gemacht. Alles was jetzt noch auf der Messe selbst an Neuem gezeigt wird, ist ein Bonus, den wir Technikinteressierte gerne annehmen. Ich hoffe, dass auch für Sie auf den folgenden Seiten interessantes zu fin- den ist.

  • Leopard 10.5.8 Latest Software
    Leopard 10.5.8 latest software Here is a list of the latest software that OS X Leopard supports. If you have software that can be added, tell me in the thread and where to find it, so we can expand the list. A lot of the software is not on the mac repository sites or other sites, some download links are broken and programs or any info about them will be extremely hard to find. I have a lot of free space on my HDD and I store all this software & can send a download link whenever someone needs something (ideal solution is if we can make a file server or make a new updated PCC store). I first used a list from “The Leopard Thread”, sorted everything better (sorry if something isn't in order) and added programs that weren't there before. Also, some of the programs weren't the latest version, so I found the latest, found a serial and added it in the folder. Please, if you want to add something on the list, check if it truly is the latest version for PPC! Also, if some program is put under incorrect label or there is a better version, please tell me in the thread, i want to make it as best as possible! Green Have latest version of the software and a working serial if it needs one Blue Have latest version of the software, but no serial Red Downloaded latest version of the software, but haven’t tested it Magenta I guess that this is the latest version, but can’t find a download link anywhere Black Not downloaded or checked if it works or latest version Bold Black - made a list like this before without checking too much if the programs were latest ​ version & these weren't on the Leopard Thread list, so i copied them & need to check again 1.

  • Compression Tools
    Compression Tools As you have probably gathered by now, quite a lot of compression tools are available these days. This chapter outlines major multipurpose tools; interesting tools that are single-format or have special features for that format are covered in the chapter on that format. While the dream of “ the single tool that does everything ” hasn’t been realized, most compressionists wind up with a few go-to tools that work well with the sources and platforms they target. Generally, the broader the range of jobs you need to handle, the greater the variety of tools you’ll want to have to do them well. I ’m focusing on software-based tools for transcoding. Where products include live ingest or encoding I’ll call that out, but I am not covering live-only encoders here. What to Look for in a Compression Tool There are a lot of factors to consider in choosing a compression tool, and different factors will be more or less important depending on one’s needs. Class Different compression tools target different usage and pricing models, and what you need varies a lot depending on what you’re trying to do. I break it down into a few general classes, as described in the following sections. Consumer Consumer encoding tools are aimed at the casual users doing their own content. Increasingly these are web-based, not a traditional local app. We’re seeing a lot of adoption of free, open source tools for consumer transcoding, particularly for legally questionable tasks like transcoding from encrypted DVDs.
