It's been a while since I posted an update on my application. I’m very proud to announce the availability of release 2.1.3.0 of my Digital Home Server. New is the multi-room audio feature, allowing to manage audio streams to multiple rooms.
Sending audio to multiple rooms has a few specific...
Release 2.0.7.0 is now available. It took me a lot of time, and development was interrupted several times for other things, but I finally was able to release my “Scanning and Archiving” module. I developed a solution that would allow me to scan all documents that come in by post directly in DHS...
Release 2.0.6.5 is now available. New is the "Notify My Android" module, which allows you to send free notifications to your Android smartphone.
You can set up multiple accounts or share accounts between smartphones (so that all smartphones get the same message), and sent messages are saved...
+1 for Wordpress. If you insist on using a client software (I suppose mainly because you need to work offline as well) I can recommend NetObjects Fusion, which comes in a free version (and is surprisingly rich in features). Soitjes.
Just released version 2.0.6.0. New is the Picasa slideshow module, which allows to make a photo slideshow with your Picasa Web albums.
The module is very simple, because all content management is done in Google Picasa. You only need to enter your Google account and you're ready to watch the...
After a few attempts to work with cheap laptops (you know, those unknown brands) I went back to major brands. There is always something wrong with those very cheap machines. A good indicator of the quality is the keyboard. Often very bad on those cheap machines. I now went back to Dell (sorry...
Version 2.0.5.4 is now released. A new module : the wakeup module. I tried to imitate a flipclock, and a few minutes before you have to get up music can be played.
A few other small updates have been implemented :
- the calendar now shows the number of meetings per day
- radio info is...
Version 2.0.4.1 is now released. New is the Scribble Pad, a small drawing program, mainly to be used to leave messages behind for the other family members.
And a lot of work behind the scenes, but the result of that will only be visible in the next releases !
Soitjes.
I just released version 2.0.3.1. New is the DVD Player. It can play DVDs from the optical reader, but also DVDR which are copied on the hard disk.
Just like the video player, the DVD supports multiple monitors. So you can control the DVD which is displayed on one monitor from another monitor...
Release 2.0.2.0 is now available. A new widget : analog clock.
On request I implemented the option to specify on which monitor DHS should be displayed (previous default was to open DHS on all connected monitors).

I'm happy to announce the new version of my "Digital Home Server", which is a free HTPC application which I wrote as part of my hobby. I announced the first version also on this forum about a year ago. It used to be a graphical interface for my 7" USB monitor, but now I completely rewrote the...
$70 : http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.34945. See the comments for reviews. It's wireless, but you can find plenty of wired cameras as well. Soitjes.
I am a computer scientist, hobby programmer but also Security Manager in a large Insurance/Bank. Let me give you first my "hobby" view of things : I've built my own mediaplayer, and I actuallly started with Ubuntu. Installation is seamless, and as long as you stay in the GUI part most...
I like these little motherboards, and they have HDMI : http://www.mini-box.com/ASUS-AT3IONT-Non-Delux With a picopsu they are really silent (important if you like to have in your living room). Only 155$, you should definitely be able to stay under 500$ in total. Soitjes ----...
It's funny that you think it's spam. You're not the first one, I've been banned before. It seems that people just don't believe that somebody would build everything from scratch. Maybe I should change the picture, and show this one ? So that it looks more "home-built" ?
HTPC with...
Hi,
I've built a mediaplayer with a little mini-ITX PC. I had planned to use a commercial package, but in the end I wrote everything myself.
The functions are audio, video, photo slideshow, Google Calendar, weather forecast, calculator and phone calls with Skype. This is what it looks like ...
