ID:652 - Jun 29, 2009 [16:08]

iPhone 3.0 + small hack makes it work... The 2G iPhone (the first model) does not seem to have MMS enabled when installing OS 3.0. Nice move Apple,... thanks for rewarding our loyalty like that ... A simple hack fixes this issue ... go visit the Hackint0sh forum and see how it is done. T-Mobile USA settings: Settings/General/Network/Cellular Data (note that Cellular Data APN and MMS APN must be the same or it will not save.) Cellular Data settings * APN: wap.voicestream.com * Username: (leave blank) * Password: (leave blank) MMS settings * APN: wap.voicestream.com * Username: (leave blank) * Password: (leave blank) * MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc * MMS Proxy: 216.155.165.50:8080 * MMS Max Message Size: (leave blank) * MMS UA Prof URL: (leave blank) After a reboot it worked like a charm on mine ...   hackint0sh

VisualHub discontinued

ID:650 - Oct 04, 2008 [11:39]

The Mac Video converter is no more ... TechEpansion discontinues one of their greates products: VisualHub, for unknown reasons. Unfortunately, older/current versions cannot be downloaded anymore (Google is your friend). Registered users might want to read the backup instructions: In order to get VisualHub working if you need to switch computers, you need to back up two things: 1: VisualHub itself 2: The conversion engine To back up the conversion engine, Copy the folder at: /Library/Application Support/Techspansion/ ...for good measure, you can also back up your Preferences file, containing your registration info in case you lose the original purchase e-mail. It is at: /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/com.techspansion.visualhub.plist Do not forget to copy the VisualHub app from your Applications folder as well :) As far as I can tell, VisualHub 1.34 will continue to work up to and through Snow Leopard. I obviously cannot predict the future and what Apple will do, though.   TechExpansion website

DivX Project Rémoulade	ID:646 - Jul 13, 2008 [11:42]
h.264 becomes fact DivX, already around for 10 years now, is moving on to the next level by integrating the h.264 codec in to the DivX codec. Currently only supporting playback, makes us wonder what the future might bring ... Independent tests seem to prove that the new h.264 support (for playback) in the DivX codec is already faster and more efficient that comparable h.264 codecs.   DivX Labs
