[By Demand] October 2005 DVD+CD

J

Ok so the mighty Rain Gods couldn't stop us from completing the DVD on time. This was one of the hardest DVD/CD in terms of deadline. Anyhow, we know there is a problem with current interface and should problem persist we're more than keen to change it or provide alternative HTML with the current one. Please dont take it as a writting on the wall, but we'd do everything so you get a better deal per se.

So what do you want?

M

is the BRIAN LARA CRICKET DEMO with or without Commentary in the september issue.If no then plz give it with commentary in the October issue.

The Latest version of GCC 3.whatever
for windows Plz make it ready to use Say give an installer or extractable zip I mean it shud not be as raw as is provided on its website(uncompiled source or binaries or wahtever)

My demand is as again -- flightgear from flightgear.org

and can u provide offline data fo NASA Worldwind

1 file is around 359 MB
the others go above 1 GB alright and therefore cannot be well ahem "downloaded"

so still 359 Mb file is giveable

And can you add such themes for Windows Xp which do not need 3rd party software like Window Blinds or Style Xp

Some of the requests which could not be met in Sep DVD/CD, hope would be taken care of in Oct DVD/CD. There are some of them, see if these can be included in Oct 2005

Ulead DVD Movie Factory 4 [most wanted]
Photodex Proshow Gold 2.5
Ulead DVD workshop 2
NTI CD/DVD maket 7 Platinum
Pinnacle Hollywood FX 5.1
Roxio Easy DVD Copy
Roxio easy CD/DVD creator 6

L

How about including Xara Software suite along with the next issue. If done so, Digit will be the first to do so.

Muvee autoproducer 4.1. It is an amazing s/w for creating slideshows and home videos.
Check their site at *www.muvee.com.
It is what they say!

Out now: muvee autoProducer 4.1

The award-winning muvee autoProducer is the fastest, easiest, most fun way to transform your videos and pictures into slick productions... in seconds!

Our latest version now comes with many new and cool features such as DVD authoring, improved photo-handling, improved music effects, support for more video formats and much more!

Windows Vs Linux = Scarcity of Space on DVDs

I have a suggestion for digit guys. Split the subscription [issue] into three catagories i.e.

1. Windows Platform - DVD
2. Windows Platform - CD
3. Linux - DVD or CD [what ever you feel suitable]

a]. You have to work out the costings freshly. Also this plan will take take care of those who do not have combo drives. CD to a subscriber who is having DVD drive is useless and same way DVD is useless to a person who is not having DVD drive.

b]. Linux distros are eating lot of space that is truely what windows platform subscribers are annoyed with. Having these 3 separate catagories will solve this problem too. There are very few operating linux and it is not wise to frustrate your large number of window operators.

c]. Members, your comments please. Do you agree or not ?

I reserver some space in the next DVD (not this month, but November) for Ubuntu Breezy Badger which will be released by October!!!

Plz Plz Plz this is an advanced request, so plz dont forget it!!!

Preferably the DVD Iso or the CD Iso's for both UBUNTU as well as KUBUNTU...

Plz plz plz....

S

Please include

Here is my wish list:

01. Ulead DVD Movie factory 4
02. Ulead CD& DVD Picture Show 3
03. Ulead DVD workshop 2
04. Ulead Photo Express 4.0
05. Nero Vision Express Template package I & II
06. Nero Photoshow Elite 1.01
07. Able Photo Slide Show 1.6
08. 1st Photo To DVD Slideshow Burner 2.58
09. Photodex Proshow Gold 2.5
10. Microsoft Photo Story 3

Proshow gold is most important to me.
So even if you avoid other ones, please include Proshow Gold :idea:

It is a powerful software for making slideshow CDs and DVDs having great transition effects than others like Nero vision express or Photo2DVD studio

Thank you.

vista tranformation pack

K

Include DVDLab pro trial version from mediachance.com. This is a very good software for authoring DVD.

hey i want Suse Pro latest edition (i guess 9.3)
and include loads of linux software and linux games.
you are very partial towards linux users.
I want more articles on linux in magazine also,since digit is not a MS windows based magazine.And do include some linux tutorials as well
. I m a linux freak :twisted:

Sreekanth V

Your wish list is very comprehensive and attractive and would be useful to most of the members. But I have been seeing your posts for months together for the same wish list. I do not think these guys are going to give it a look. They could not provide even Ulead dvd movie factory 4 which is released long back and was most wanted in the on demand section for Aug and Sep.

May God [jacknife] help U.

VIDALINUX 1.2

YEAH MAN INCULDE A MOVIE

C

Can u include movies likeThe Matrix or Harry Potter or any good cartoon movie?

D

why not incredibles or garfield the movie or Spider man 1.

C

The Matrix bcoz everyone likes here and some of ppl must have not seen it.

Here is my list:

1. Yahoo Messenger 7 Indian Version (International version will also work) (Not just the installer, the full setup with all the files)

2. MS Windows XP 64-bit Edition (Please!!!!!!)

9. K-Lite Mega Codec Pack (Latest for all Windows)
10. Nokia PC-Suite (Latest build for WinXP)
11. PowerDVD 6 (With latest patch/build)
12. Any english movie

That's it for now.
I know that we can download MS Windows XP 64-bit for free from MS's site but not all of us have broadband/DSL/cable connections, u know.

As for the drivers, I think almost everyone will appreciate them.

But the most important thing needed is Digit Software Archive. Ever since u started giving out DVD's, u stopped giving the Software Archive. Now, that u give DVD's too along with CD's, it has become a real pain in the ass to keep track of all the softwares/games/miscellaneous that u give out on CD/DVD. So, a software archive would be really helpful.

I haven't bought this month's issue, so can't say which of the above mentioned softwares u have already given out on CD/DVD this month.

Still, plz try to give whichever softwares possible on the next issue.

C

Can u please please please include VIA chipset VGA(Display) Drivers. Please

The archive is being developed, it will be launched with the new thinkdigit.com, we have to make it compatible between the dvd and site, so that we can update site and you guys can just download small update files every month... It will take a little longer but will be worth the wait, trust me!

Raaabo

Aha...

Finally!!!

Three cheers for Raaabo and Jack Knife and the Digit Team!!!
Hip Hip Hurray!!!
Hip Hip Hurray!!!
Hip Hip Hurray!!!

KnoppiX Live 3.90
CD Version.

-=> KNOPPER.NET News <=- said:
KNOPPIX 4.0.1 Released

Starting from version 4.0, the KNOPPIX-project has been split into a DVD "maxi" edition, and a "KNOPPIX light" on CD, both developed in parallel. The limited, printed first edtion of the KNOPPIX 4.0 DVD (booting in german by default) has been available at LinuxTag 2005 at different booths, and is now available for download as updated 4.0.1 release on most KNOPPIX Mirrors. For those with insufficient bandwidth for downloading the 3.5GB DVD image, there is still the possibility to order a copy at some independent CD and DVD shops.

Because of many updates and technical improvements in the meantime since the 4.0 DVD, work on the Knoppix "light" CD release has been delayed somewhat. The CD version will be released in a few days from now, and will also be available for download at the usual locations on the KNOPPIX Mirrors soon.

Main features of the Knoppix 4.0.1 DVD [original german press note]:

* Kernel 2.6.12(.4)
* KDE 3.4.1 including all languages from Debian/experimental, and Gnome 2.8 as alternative,
* OpenOffice 2.0 Beta (Build 104) in english and german,
* KOffice 1.3.5,
* Abiword 2.2.7 and Gnumeric 1.5.1,
* Books: Updated Editions of "Knoppix Kompakt" by Rainer Hattenhauer (german) und "Knowing Knoppix" by Phil Jones (english), also the Open Source Jahrbuch 2005 "light" in german language, all books in PDF,
* Software distribution system m23
* over 9 Gigabytes of live software from Debian, based on Sarge,
* many updates and bugfixes (for example, floppyconfig, knoppix-installer),
* many programming languages, development tools and IDEs for QT (kdevelop3), Java (GCJ, eclipse) and .NET (mono),
* graphics of version 4.0.1 designed by newthinking networks.

V

All request have been for nvidia drivers??

Please include ATI drivers too...

T

Request for October DVD/CD

How about Eclipse's new SDK (3.1) for Windows and Its CDT (C++ Development Kit). Also (Probably Most Important) Detailed instructions on how to install.
On the lighter side, something (A review, perhaps, or a demo) of AOE 3 would be nice

Macromedia Studio 8
Macromedia Fireworks
Macromedia Freehand
In general newly released Macromedia products

Great Idea

Sorry guys, but the idea doesn't suit too well, for once, putting all the drivers together isa cumbersome deal, and the chances of making everybody happy rae shady, for instance, if Digit Includes ASUS Drivers, People with Gigabyte, AsRock etc motherboar will not be satisifed, vice versa, and also you should note, Digit is currently is not postsion to ive two DVDs, making a Fast Track Book along with Downloading 7GBs of Software games is till too much for these guys, why put them in more pressure?

Just wait and watch, seeing you can already get 2DVDs with SKOAR! thetow DVD idea for Digit won't be too away :roll:

how about all the sci-fi ebooks available over the net...and all the classic dos/windows games...some ppl still play them in office..like me

Hey guys, please include Dungeon Siege 2 Demo

PS Plugin request

Never got Plugins for Photoshop in the Digit CDs. why don't u include them? Plugins for adding frames & borders to pictures will be highly appreciated.

C

Put some nice Linux Distro PLZ

My Suggestions:
Knoppix
J2EE with NetBeans IDE & Online Documentation (The ZIP archive)
Some good E-books on J2EE components

And for a movie, I would like Madagascar or "The March of the Penguins" (though I know it is a commercial release (!), this mind wants more)

A

a compilation of some of the better extensions for firefox
Counter Strike source demo(or even the full version will do)
a java IDE like Editplus...

S

FIFA 2006 PC DEMO PLEASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

i would say what apocalypse said could u give some good and useful extentions and some cool themes for firefox

G

MS has launched the CTP program from Vista beta, monthealy builds which can be downloaded, can U provide the septembar build

N

My suggestions :
Good desktop tweaking programs---
1)Talisman
2)Blackbox ( www.bb4win.com )
3)Window Blinds

I'd prefer blackbox since it works on older systems and since u almost always give out window blinds

Think 'bout it

sugestion

Small sugestion:
If u intend to continue with flash interface could u provide a small search feild. It wud b really useful when we want just a specific software
