General • Celtx Pre-Production Software - Mozilla-Based

2008-10-16T22:34:09+00:00

A Mozilla-based Application

[url=\"http://celtx.com/index.html\"]Celtx[/url] is the world's first all-in-one media pre-production software. It has everything you need to take your story from concept to production. Celtx replaces 'paper, pen & binder' pre-production with a digital approach that's more complete, simpler to work with, and easier to share.
Multi-Media Friendly Celtx helps you pre-produce all types of media - film, video, documentary, theater, machinima, comics, advertising, gaming, music video, radio, podcasts, videocasts, and however else you choose to tell your story.

All-In-One Unlike scriptwriting software, you can use Celtx for the entire pre-production process - write scripts, storyboard scenes and sequences, develop characters, breakdown & tag elements, schedule production, and prepare detailed and informative production reports for cast and crew.

Fully Integrated Celtx is designed to help your entire production team work together on a single, easy to share project file - eliminating the confusion of multiple project files, and the need for 'paper and binder'.

World Community of Media Creators More than 250,000 media creators in 160 countries create with Celtx in over 20 different languages. Celtx is used by independent filmmakers and studio professionals, and by students in over 1,400 universities and film schools - many that have adopted Celtx for teaching and class work submission.

The Best of The Desktop & The Internet Celtx combines the best of a desktop and internet working environment to give you the ultimate in flexibility. The free Celtx desktop application gives you total writing fluidity and complete control of your project. And, at your option, you can add in powerful, secure web services for precise script formatting, back-up, advanced collaboration, and sharing.

Non-Linear Project Development Unlike scriptwriting software, Celtx puts a choice of fully integrated development tools right at your fingertips, giving you total flexibility to determine how your story takes shape.

WRITING TOOLS

Story Development Forms Celtx helps you develop your story with preloaded forms for key elements like locations, scenes, props, characters, and 32 other production categories. You can use the forms to organize your thoughts and kick-start a media rich storyline that includes sound files, images and video clips. Celtx story development forms are intelligently tied into your script, informing the story and each scene with valuable production information.

Scripts Celtx includes six dedicated industry standard editors for writing:

* Screenplay
* Stageplay - International and US standard
* AV scripts - including documentaries, music videos and advertising.
* Audio Play - including radio plays and podcasts.
* Comic Book
* Plain Text

Celtx includes the essential features that writers need to keep their fingers moving - like intuitive formatting, text auto-complete, page breaks, dual column dialog, scene management, scratchpad, embedded notes, title page generation, pagination, printing, spellchecker, keyboard shortcuts, find and replace, script importing and exporting, PDF and HTML script reports, and collaboration.

Adapt To With a single click Adapt To converts any fully formatted script of one type into a fully formatted script of another - for example, a Stageplay to a Screenplay - displaying in an instant the multi-media potential of your work.

TypeSet provides precise automatic formatting of your script to industry and international standards. The Celtx server uses the very powerful LaTex typesetting tool to deliver perfectly formatted scripts. Full support is provided for optional formatting features like Mores and Continueds, Scene Numbering and paper size. Encryption technology protects every project upload & download between the Celtx Server and the desktop.

Index Cards Celtx includes reversible, colour coded Index Cards that are intelligently tied to your script and auto populate with the Scene Headers and first 40 words or so of the scene. You can flip the cards to type notes on the back, colour code them to track plot lines, and drag and drop them to reorder scenes.

Template Engine If the default setting for a Celtx project doesn't fit your needs, you can create your own new, blank state Template that will only open the documents you want.

PRE-VISUALIZATION TOOLS

Storyboarding Take your media project to the next level by adding a storyboard based on your script and adding individual or batch images in to the storyboard. Each storyboard image is accompanied with a shot description to help you communicate your creative vision. Rearrange images and sequences within the project to construct your visual narrative. Then when you're ready, use the slideshow feature to play the images to help pre-visualize your media project.

Media Rich Breakdowns You can add sound files, video clips, digital photos and scanned documents to your project to create a media intensive breakdown. You can then associate the media with any one of the 36 production categories, including wardrobe, props, and locations.

ORGANIZATION TOOLS

Catalogs provides a new way for you to organize and view the many production items and research details required in the pre-production stage of any media project. Each new Celtx project includes a Master Catalog which auto-populates as you breakdown your script, ultimately providing a searchable dashboard view of all your story's elements and production items. Additional Sub-Catalogs can be created for specific production categories - like props, characters, and wardrobe

External Documents You can add any document from any application to your project - PDFs, budget spreadsheets, images, and scripts written in other applications - to help stay organized.

Scheduling, Call Sheets and Shooting Reports Celtx includes a 'Just In Time' Scheduling feature that lets you manage your projects in real time. Open a schedule based on your script and drag and drop scenes to the calendar to build your shooting schedule. Generate customizable Shooting Reports to keep track of the resources you'll need during shooting, including lists of props, actors, and wardrobe items. Create Call Sheets to ensure your crew knows where and when to show up for the shoot. Call Sheets and Reports can be printed or shared online using the collaboration feature.

Inter-Project Document Management You can also drag and drop documents between projects. Grab a document from one Project Library and drop it in to another Project Library and you're done.

Back-Ups Gain peace of mind by backing up your media project online to the remote and secure Celtx Server and have a safe copy in the event that theft or disaster strikes your hard drive.

COLLABORATION TOOLS

Versioning and Event Notification Upload your encrypted media project to the Celtx Server and grant password and username protected access to team members. Share and collaborate on your project with all members of your team, and keep it all organized at the same time.

Snapshots are used to make a snapshot of your constantly evolving project, allowing you to revert back to a known state at any time.

Automatic Event Notification keeps all project members up-to-the-minute on updates posted by team members.

Private Work Spaces You can also create a private, username and password protected workspace on Celtx Project Central website so team members can view the project using a web browser.

PUBLISHING TOOLS

Celtx Project Central When your work is "in the can" you can publish it to Celtx Project Central and give the world a sneak peek at your work in progress and get peer reviews and comments.

General • Hot CPU Tester Pro [commercial]

2008-09-27T22:33:00+00:00

$19.95

[url=\"http://7byte.com/index.php?page=hotcpu\"]Hot CPU Tester Pro[/url] is a system health and stability tester. It tests CPU, chipset and virtually all parts of motherboard for errors/bugs, defective parts and components. It is a burn-in test with uniquely designed state of the art DefectTrack engine. DefectTrack is a technology developed by 7Byte to diagnose systems regarding its stability and in general, computer's health. Hot CPU Tester is currently being used in many labs and governmental organizations around the world, as a reliable stability testing utility.

Main features:

* Revolutionary DefectTrack 2 engine, accurately tests the whole system and its subsets.
* Written purely to test CPU, chipset, motherboard, Memory
* Fully supports x64 computing platform(AMD64 Technology,Intel® EM64T)
* Fuly supports dual-core and multi-processor systems
* Fully supports Hyper-Threaded processors
* Utilizes SSE,SSE2, SSE3, MMX & 3DNow! instructions sets

* Tests Chipset along with motherboard
* Tests Hard Disk Drives
* Monitors CPU performance under pressure
* Built in Anti-Crash & Exception Handler
* Comprehensive Benchmark tests
* SMBIOS & CPUID featured
* LiveSupport

How it works:
Hot CPU Tester Pro 4 is consisted of several test modules to stress-test each component within a system. Defective parts are most likely for to fail while they are under a heavy load, when the heat production is at its highest. The testing modules intentionally stress all components to their maximum limits to assess their integrity. Unstable parts cannot endure these pressures and will fail the tests, allowing the opportunity for an upgrade or exchange before the PC is released into a production environment. It is recommended that Hot CPU Tester should run for at least six hours to fully check the system. If a system is stable under hard conditions for six hours, it is unlikely to generate errors during normal operating conditions.

By Mark Russinovich
Published: April 15, 2008
Introduction

Ever wondered which program has a particular file or directory open? Now you can find out. Process Explorer shows you information about which handles and DLLs processes have opened or loaded.

The Process Explorer display consists of two sub-windows. The top window always shows a list of the currently active processes, including the names of their owning accounts, whereas the information displayed in the bottom window depends on the mode that Process Explorer is in: if it is in handle mode you'll see the handles that the process selected in the top window has opened; if Process Explorer is in DLL mode you'll see the DLLs and memory-mapped files that the process has loaded. Process Explorer also has a powerful search capability that will quickly show you which processes have particular handles opened or DLLs loaded.

The unique capabilities of Process Explorer make it useful for tracking down DLL-version problems or handle leaks, and provide insight into the way Windows and applications work.

Process Explorer works on Windows 9x/Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Server 2003, and 64-bit versions of Windows for x64 and IA64 processors, and Windows Vista.

About [url=\"http://www.sandboxie.com/\"]Sandboxie[/url]: a transient storage area, or sandbox.

When you run a program on your computer, data flows from the hard disk to the program via read operations. The data is then processed and displayed, and finally flows back from the progam to the hard disk via write operations.

For example, if you run the Freecell program to play a game, it starts by reading the previously recorded statistics, displaying and altering them as you play the game, and finally writing them back to disk for future reference.

Sandboxie changes the rules such that write operations do not make it back to your hard disk.

Data flows in both directions between programs and the sandbox. During read operations, data may flow from the hard disk into the sandbox. But data never flows back from the sandbox into the hard disk.

If you run Freecell inside the Sandboxie environment, Sandboxie reads the statistics data from the hard disk into the sandbox, to satisfy the read requested by Freecell. When the game later writes the statistics, Sandboxie intercepts this operation and directs the data to the sandbox.

If you then run Freecell without the aid of Sandboxie, the read operation would bypass the sandbox altogether, and the statistics would be retrieved from the hard disk.

The transient nature of the sandbox makes it is easy to get rid of everything in it. If you were to throw away the sandbox, by deleting everything in it, the sandboxed statistics would be gone for good, as if they had never been there in the first place.
Sandboxie and the Web

Protecting your Freecell statistics using Sandboxie may be a good idea when a less qualified player comes along, but you will probably want to play most of your games outside the sandbox. On the other hand, you may want to run your Web browser inside the sandbox most of the time. This way any incoming, unsolicited software (spyware, malware and the like) that you download, is trapped in the sandbox. Changes made to your list of Favorites or Bookmarks, hijacking of your preferred start page, new and unwanted icons on your desktop -- all these, and more, are trapped in and bound to the sandbox.

You could also try a new toolbar add-on, browser extension or just about any kind of software. If you don't like it, you throw away the sandbox, and start again with a fresh sandbox. On the other hand, if you do like the new piece of software, you can re-install it outside the sandbox so it becomes a permanent part of your system.

Sandboxie intercepts changes to both your files and registry settings, making it virtually impossible for any software to reach outside the sandbox.

Sandboxie traps cached browser items into the sandbox as a by-product of normal operation, so when you throw away the sandbox, all the history records and other side-effects of your browsing disappear as well.
