Broadcaster Plugin 1.2
Broadcaster Plugin is designed to provide support for delegation of event handlers and thus allows a modular design of programming. more>>
Broadcaster Plugin 1.2 is designed to provide support for delegation of event handlers and thus allows a modular design of programming.
The plugin does not do anything magically; a timer-broadcaster can be developed in pure RB by subclassing a timer and creation of an interface, cluttering your project window with additional classes. All these are tucked away in the plugin, including code maintaining the reference to the handler, which in this example implements the actionlistener interface. The upshot is that you do not need to maintain a list of actionlistener objects for proper disposal, nor do you need to provide circular references.
- Added universal support for MacOS X.
- Added specific interface listeners.
SETIMonitor 1.0
SETIMonitor - a small tool for monitoring the progress of the Darwin command line version of the SETI@home client more>>
The first time you run SETIMonitor it will ask you to tell it where your SETI data lives. Thats a directory that has a bunch of files ending in ".sah".
In Darwin its whatever directory you run the app from.
In Classic OS, its generally "System Folder:Application Support:SETTI@Home Data". You can change the directory, and thus the SETI data unit youre statusing, under the application menu (where you might normally find "Preferences...").
LuraWave Photoshop plug-in 2.6
Reduce the size of images in Photoshop using LuraWave format. more>>
LuraWave is a state-of-the-art file format that uses wavelet-based compression to reduce file sizes while achieving better image quality than conventional methods such as JPEG and TIFF.
Compared to the current standard lossy compression format, JPEG, the LuraWave product family delivers substantially higher image quality at the same compression rates while dramatically reducing the amount of data required to represent and store an image. Images in the LuraWave format (.LWF) can be viewed over the Internet using our free LuraWave browser plug-ins.

Thus, you can easily synchronize scores scrolling on screen with sound files, add a cursor as well as some notes. Cursor movements and notes showing or hiding can also be synced with sound files. This software is especially aimed at music teachers or musicologists.
MPEG Telecine 1.2
MPEG Telecine is considered as a helpful variant of MPEG Append that allows for the procession of MPEG video as if it were encoded as progressive 24 fps. more>>
MPEG Telecine 1.2 is considered as a helpful variant of MPEG Append that allows for the procession of MPEG video as if it were encoded as progressive 24 fps. It adds the flags to the picture extension headers necessary to increase the effective frame rate to 29.97 fps. This duplicates the treatment of film source encoding used in Hollywood movies, reducing the required bit rate and improving the quality of the output when viewed on progressive and computer displays.
Requirements: Mac OS 9.x or higher

AbsoluteDeNoiser 1.2d
AbsoluteDeNoiser - Noise reduction filter for digital images more>>
AbsoluteDeNoiser is Java-based software that should run on almost every machines.
Digital cameras or scanners often produce images that contains noise, especially when using high ISO. This noise is made of random pixel variations that damage the picture in different manner, adding unwanted granular effects. To obtain a good result, this noise should be removed paying a great attention to :
- Image details that often can be removed with noise, and edges definition that are often blured by basic noise reduction technics.
- Keeping some granularity to avoid the common "plastic" effect of too much noise removal.
AbsoluteDeNoiser (Free version) works in 3 steps :
- Edges detection : this analyse makes a separation between large surfaces with poor details, and places where some edges and/or details require a special attention. The value to tune enables to decide the sensitivity of the edges detection, thus the amount of the picture that is to be considered as details/edges or not. Surfaces and edges will then be processed in different ways in next steps.
- Surfacing : performs a calculation of local color cohesion to decide, for each pixel, what is the mean color value in the noise variations arround it, without merging two different surfaces together. This step also processes surfaces and edges in two different ways. The more important is the value that tunes the surface managment : it is the one that decides of the effective noise reduction. There is also a secondary value that tunes the edges managment, but it should often be kept at a low value to avoid bluring edges : in some cases it offers the possibility to reduce some edges pixelisation effects.
- Texturing : the step 2 may provide with "too" clean surfaces where some small details or textures could have been lost, and possibly a "plastic" effect. This final filter decides the amount of original pixels that should be added back to the clean surface to restore details and textures without re-introducing the noise that should be removed. A first value tunes how much part of pixels that was removed in step 2 shows a local regularity, thus how much noise vs details is to be considered on them. There is also a secondary value that tunes how much pure granularity, without special regularity, should be added back without re-introducing bad strong spots and scratches.

Pyrex Builder X 1.5.4
Pyrex Builder X - Tool for Pyrex module creation more>>
Pyrex is a powerful tool for connecting C and Python by creating a Python module consisting of compiled C files. However, building a complex Python module using Pyrex is no simple task. Each time a change is made, all source files must be re-compiled, and re-bundled, linking against various frameworks. Repeatedly performing these tasks can quickly become very time consuming.
