SynoDownloader

Flard — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 17:28:33 +0000

Yes, I’m very proud to present to you: SynoDownloader 1.0.
It has taken some three months of my very busy scheduled life, but finally, it has all the features I need.

SynoDownloader is a replacement for the Download Redirector application that is bundled with the Synology DiskStation and CubeStation. Since it’s lacking quite some features, I decided to create my own, better version, which enable you to use your DiskStation or CubeStation to it’s full potential.

Some of it’s features:

Download Management
Add URL from Clipboard
Automatically download .torrent files
Drop Zone
Clipboard Monitor
Site Manager (manage credentials per site)
Search Engine
FTP Browser
RSS Feed Browser

Oh, and probably most important of all: it’s free!

Curious? Go to the SynoDownloader page to download.

SynoDownloader v0.4 Released

Flard — Sun, 14 Oct 2007 18:11:56 +0000

People who are following the thread on the Synology Forums have probably also tried version 0.2 and 0.3, but to let you all know: Version 0.4 is available for download!

In the previous version the need for hacking your CubeStation was removed, since triad has hacked the admin password. So now it’s really Download & Play.

New in this version:
- New Name (since the application can be used for all Synology NAS products, not only the Cubestation).
- Sponsoring (Mobile-Harddisk.nl offered me some goodies for my hard work (hehe), and in return I mention their company every here and there).
- Drop Zone (check it out)
- Site Manager (Save credentials for ‘private’ domains and trackers)
- Search Favorites (Save your favorite search queries so you can easily recall them)
- MiniNova Search
- ‘Start with Windows’ option (in the preferences dialog)

RSS Feeds support has been dropped for now: most provided feeds are not completely RSS2.0 compatible, which makes it very hard to track if there are new entries. (To do so, I would need to save the history per feed in some location, which is quite a lot of work). As an alternative I provided the Search Favorites.
If anyone can tell me what they think about this alternative, or have an idea how to consume RSS-feeds: please do so at the Synology Forums!

CubeDownloader v0.1

I bought my Synology CubeStation 407e some months ago, and I really loved it’s versatility. It’s a very handy device, just for storage and has some really cool tools.

Although I’m not really a leecher (I *honestly* buy all movies I want to see (have about 200-250 DVD’s), buy cd-albums of bands I like and pay for (most of) software), I didn’t really like the Download Redirector application that was bundled with the cubestation. And since I’m a developer, I thought: I can do this better. And so I, sort of, did…

The result is a beta-version of the software. It isn’t really done yet, but I could use some user input so this is why I posted it to the community…

Anyhouse… just checkout the downloadpage and screenshots…

ServiceDog First Release

Flard — Sat, 13 Jan 2007 14:38:17 +0000

Yea, because I finished by new site, I thought it would also be good to release my ServiceDog. An application I wrote for a friend/webhostingprovider) of mine to check if al of his servers were online.

Although it was finished for quite some time, I didn’t find the time to publish it, so here it is now.

TimeLapse…

Flard — Thu, 11 Jan 2007 16:05:56 +0000

Well, I posted this application before on my personal blog. But since I created my own dev-blog, I decided to place this project also here, so here it is

To cut a long story short: TimeLapse is an application which helps you to create timelapse applications. Those ‘movies’ where you see an entire day flashing before your eyes in a few seconds.
