I've got a dumb question abou thtis. As I understand it WizFX can transfer fomr the BW to a network drive and convert to TS at the same time.

Can this utility do that?

Hi Twitch,

You should be able to save files to any location that is visible to the finder this includes networked drives, usb thunmb drives etc.

Yes the Wiz Mac automatically converts recordings into TS files while it transfers.

Eric

Hi efry.

Are these bugs or unfinished features?
- The rows in the Size column of the list view always say ".fGB".
- The transfer progress bar always says ".f/.fMB".
- The transfer ETA always says "(null)".

I'm running on PowerPC OS X v10.4.11.

Hi em5500,

Yeah those are bugs.

It looks like it doesn't like the formatter strings that I'm using. I'll see if I can convert the numbers down to a normal float.

I'm currently using

Code: Select all

%.1Lf

to accommodate the large file sizes.

Are you running on a G5 processor?

Regards,
Eric

Hi em5500,

Could you try the following version.

http://nuvie.sourceforge.net/temp/WizMac-20080625.dmg

I've changed the floating point display logic which should be 10.4.x compatible.

I've also turned off G5 tuning for the PowerPC Arch.

Regards,
Eric

G4 actually. It's pretty slow.

All three display problems are fixed!

Thanks!
