mpv.net is a media player based on mpv. It's a highly advanced and extremely configurable player that targets power users. Unlike similar tools, the program uses FFmpeg for decoding instead of relying on DirectShow or Media Foundation. mpv.net adds a modern GUI on top of mpv but retains mpv's command line support.
mpv has OpenGL video output with support for several video scaling algorithms, color management, interpolation, HDR, D3D11VA and DXVA2 hardware video decoding, and more.

ColorPicker allows color code selections, primarily for web development. Colors can be selected similar to the Windows color selection via an HSL color graphic, and both HSL and RGB values can be adjusted individually. So-called web-safe colors can also be selected via a graphic (e.g. for 3-digit CSS color values) and values can be copied or pasted in different formats. The program allows automatic copy and paste of values that enable data exchange with other programs, including text and HTML editors.
Color code formats include hexadecimal, decimal RGB, CSS hexadecimal, CSS 3 digits hexadecimal, CSS RGB decimal, CSS RGB percent, CSS HSL).
Note: Program discontinued.

notecase is a solid program I've used for about 2 years. no easter eggs, tom; it's GTK made portable, which GTK isn't supposed to do. This guy figured out how. notecase is crossplatform. if you're always going to be an M$ drone, then you don't care and should maybe keep quiet; otherwise, don't knock it Until you try it.

NoteCase is still being developed (currently v3.8.0), now as a commercial product: |
FCEUX is a games emulator for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), Famicom, Famicom Disk System (FDS), and Dendy. It supports NTSC (USA/JPN), PAL (European), and NTSC-PAL Hybrid modes.
Note that to actually play any game with FCEUX you will need ROM images in one of the supported formats, not included with the download.

For those of us who check these pages every day to see whats new, this program isn't categorized but from what I've read, I "assume" its a game. The description is very vague to those of us uninitiated.

It's really not a game but an emulator similar to Mame and others. You add ROM files and you can play older games on your PC. In this case it's an emulator for NES and Famicom based games. |
