Who else wants to know how to safely edit, restore, and backup Windows’ Registry?

What is Windows Registry?

Windows Registry is the database where Windows stores the configuration settings. These settings determine how the Windows XP appears and how it behaves. The settings for most of the installed applications are also stored in the registry as well.

Why is it important?

If the registry fails, Windows XP fails. But there is nothing to fear, if you can successfully restore the registry and you know what you are changing. Before editing any part of the registry it is advisable to do a backup of the setting that you want to change and in case of any problems later on you can easily revert back the settings.

Starting Registry Editor

You can use the Registry Editor to add or change the registry settings. You can run Registry Editor as:

• Go to Start->Run.
• Type regedit and press Enter to run the Registry Editor.

Structure of the Registry Editor

If you are familiar with Windows Explorer then understanding the structure of the Registry Editor will be a lot easier.

First there are keys. Any key can have sub keys. Think of keys like folders. Sub keys are like sub folders. Each key contains one or more values. Think of values like files. A value's name is similar to a file's name. There are three properties for the value, they are value name which appears first, then its type, then the data. In order to change any value's data simple double click it.

Adding Keys or Values

The only reason you would create keys and values is if you were instructed to do so; that is, you know adding the value will have some effect. To create a new key,

• First click the key under which you want to create a sub key.
• Click Edit from the menu.
• Select New and Key.

• Then type a name for the new key.

In order to backup any of the keys or values do this:

• Go to the key that you want to back in the Registry editor. (To open registry editor Type "regedit" without quotes in Run and press Enter.)

• Right Click on the key (folder) and choose Export from the menu.

• Specify a filename which is easy to remember the settings it saved and save the file.

In order to restore the settings:

• Simply locate the file that saved and Run (Double-Click) it.
• Make sure to choose yes.
• You are done.

Since I'm planning to write few tips and tricks by using the registry editor, so I thought an introduction would be nice.

Automatically End Task of Hung application in Windows XP

The following registry hack allows for automatically killing a task if it becomes unresponding. This is a quite useful trick since every now and then some application does become un-responding.

Make sure to backup your registry before trying to edit the registry. Follow the procedure:

Start Registry Editor. (Start->run->"regedit")

• On the left, navigate to,

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop

• Create a new DWORD entry or alter the value, named "AutoEndTasks" and set its value as 1.


• Create a new DWORD entry or alter the value, named "HungAppTimeout" and set its value as 1000.


• Create a new DWORD entry or alter the value, named "WaitToKillAppTimeout" and set its value as 1.


• Exit registry editor.

Now every time an application becomes un-resposnding it will automatically be killed.

Save Time When Copying Mutiple Files

When copying files if they are located at different folders (places), going to each folder, copying files and then pasting in the destination is one hefty task. Piky Basket is one handy utility which extends the default copy paste functionalities of Windows.

Using Piky Basket, you can put the files in a virtual basket, and then paste them in the destination. It makes organizing the files easier, you can just right click on the files, add them to the virtual basket, and then paste them in one go. This is a great time saver when you're selecting files for backup, or sharing or to burn them on CD etc.

It reduces the repetitive tasks when copying or moving files and folders in Windows. You can also copy folders/files path on the clipboard and paste them in text file. You can even launch the command prompt from any folder. Since it gets integrated within Windows and works from the shell, it doesn't use any resources.

In fact, you don't even need to run it as a separate program. It is a must for everyone.

Convert X To DVD Tutorial

Step 1



This is the main ConvertXToDVD windows. May seem a little too basic now but you'll soon see how efficient it can be. For the beginning lets go to Settings -> General.

Step 2



What we will set here is the working folder, which is the folder that ConvertXToDVD will save the DVD files before burning them to a DVD. Make sure that the drive that the folder is in has at least 5GB free and set the working folder. (1) We will set the rest of the settings in the next steps, so for now click OK. (2)

Step 3



We are back to the main windows and its time to add some file to our DVD. Click the add button and select the file or files you want to convert.

Step 4



The files are now added as you see, however we will deal with their settings later. First comes the DVD's menu. Click the little cross (1) to reveal all options for the Menu item. Lets see the options one by one. First you can set the DVD title that will appear on the top of the menu by double-clicking on it (2) and setting the name (3). Next, you can set the background image by double clicking on Background and select the image you want to use (there are many nice one in ConvertXToDVD's folder and you can use any of your own pictures you want).

Auto start playback will auto-begin playing the first video when you enter the DVD in the player instead of showing the menu, Loop playback can be used if you want the DVD to repeat playback indefinitely by default and Sequential playback will play all videos in a row instead of returning back in the menu. The two font settings can be used to set the font and size of the menu's Title and Items.

Step 5



Right next comes the video properties. First you can see that the audio of each video has been automatically imported (1) as ConvertXToDVD supports almost all formats. But you can also add you own audio (for example commentary) by right-clicking on Audio and selecting Add Audio Channel. You can also click on each audio channel and set the language. Then we move to the subtitle settings. Right click on 0 Subtitle Stream and select Add Subtitle Channel (2) in order to add as many subtitle streams as you like. After you add them you can set the language and font size settings. Please note that if the subtitles are in the same desktop and have the same filename as the video they'll be automatically added. Finally you can review the Chapters and add more if you like as well as change the Menu text which is what will appear in the main menu as the title of this video. Follow the same steps to configure all your videos and move to the next step.

Tip If some cases when working with Matroska (.mkv) files that include subtitles, ConvertXToDVD may fail to load them. You can easily solve this by extracting the subtitles from the .mkv file and add them in your DVD the way shown above. If you wonder how you can achieve that just read this guide and you are set!

Step 6



We are finally ready to convert. You may want of course to preview your DVD before you start converting. To do that click the Preview button (1) and you can take a look at the whole DVD, including the menus. When you decide you are satisfied with the result click Convert (2) to start the converting process! Make sure you put an empty DVD in your DVD burner drive as well.

Step 7



When the conversion has finished a window like this will pop-up where you can select some settings about the burning (1) and change the volume name (2). When you are done click Burn (3). Keep in mind that this window will only be open for about 30secs since the conversion finishes and if you are not around it will start burning the DVD automatically so you don't really have to worry about this step as the default settings are fine.

Step 8



Finally burning finishes and your new DVD is ready for your player!

Why should one opt for PS2 rather than some media player? One, you can play cool PS2 games, all the neighboring kids will envy you and befriend you. Two, you can play DVD's, CD's. Three, you can play DivX and Xvid file format movies. Four, you can listen to all those MP3's that you have collected since 1972. Five, you can play all the movies from USB hard-disk.

SMS can even read DVD-RW discs specially formatted with the DVD-Video filesystem, or CD-R Discs formatted with CDDAFS without needing a modchip or any Swap tricks.
Download SMS Player.
Download CDGenPS2.
Download USB.irx file which is part of Naplink.
Download the SYSTEM.cnf file.
Note: There are other Media players for PS2, But I chose SMS because I find it most efficient.


Step 3:
Extract the CDGenPS2 zip file to any location on your drive. Launch the CDGenPS2 exe file.

Drag all the files in the application which you have download (i.e SMS.elf, USB.irx, System.cnf)


Right click on "System.cnf" and click "Edit", check "Fix LBA", type 12231 in LBA "text box"

How to Display Subtitles with an .avi file

First of all you need a program which can display Subtitles. For this purpose you can use VobSub.

After installtion of VobSub - From the Start/Programs menu, select Vobsub/DirectVobSub Configure

A window with tabs will show up:



General



16:9 refers to Widescreen avi files. There are also Fullscreen avi files, whose aspect ratio is 4:3. You could change this setting according to that, however 16:9 will do in any case. Enable MOD32fix. You won't need it most of the time. But it doesn't do any damage (as far as i know) so just put it on. Select Double if smaller than The numbers on the right refer to the resolution of an .avi, which means width per height. If the resolution of your video is smaller than the number displayed, selecting this option you'll double the picture's size. You can play with the resolution settings if you want, but there's no need to change them. Selecting: Always load Vobsub will start everytime you run an avi file.
Misc Just leave everything as default.
Timing Just keep everything as it is.

Colors Leave the original settings.

Paths Here you can select the Directory where your subs are stored. However remember that the sub file should be named exactly as the avi file, otherwise they won't be loaded.



Now you're done Configuring VobSub. You only have to do this once. Close the window.
3. Displaying the Subtitles
From now on, when you play a video an icon will appear in your taskbar:



Double Click it. You'll see the Direct VobSub Configure screen pop up.



If your sub files is in the same directory as the video you're going to watch, the subtitles will be displayed automatically. However, if the subtitles file is elsewhere click "Open" and select the directory where it's stored. NOTE: If the Subs are in the Vobsub format (.sub + .idx) you won't need to unrar them, in case. Check "Override Placement". H refers to moving the displayed subtitles from left to right. 50 corresponds to the center and is good. V refers to moving the displayed subtitles from the top to the bottom. 90 is a good setting but you can change it if you prefer. The higher the number, the closer to the bottom the subs will appear on the screen. Now click "Adjust" (bottom right on the screen) and select the language, in case your subtitles file includes more than one. Click OK. The subs will appear in your Video file when you play it.

How to download using a torrent link

Here is an "idiot guide" on how to download using a torrent link

1) What is a Torrent - a torrent is a link which you simultaniuosly upload and download a film/program/etc at the same time as other users - basically you share a file until you have finished downloading it.

2) Firstly you need a Torrent Download Manager - i use Bitlord but there are hundreds out there, and are all usually freeware.

http://www.bitlord.com/BitLord_1.01.exe

3) When you have downloaded and installed a torrent manager your system will then recognise the format .torrent by default.

4) visit a torrent site (same as any other site) and download the torrent link for the program/movie/etc you want.

5) the torrent file is always very small - less than 100k

6) once the torrent file is downloaded just double click on the torrent file and your torrent manager will kick in and ask you where you wish to save the file to ... just like any other file manager.

7) depending on how many other people are using (seeding) this torrent will determine the speed of the download. rule of thumb - more is faster!

8) Torrents are resumable!

Terminology :

Seeders (people uploading) - More the better! anything over 40/50 you will get good download speeds

leechers (People not sharing/uploading just downloading) - less the better lol.
torrent - the file extension given to the downloaded link file, such as Lost_s01_e02_HDTV.torrent

Notes: Some sites require you to be members before you can download - avoid these sites and use the free/no hassle ones. The only exception to this rule is Demonoid.com this site is the best for torrents, but membership is closed. However is bought an invite ID off eBay. best £7.50 i ever spent

and thats it - nothing more to be frightened of

Correct Audio Sync Errors

Correct Audio Sync Errors

Tools: Windows Media Player Classic and NanDub

This is a short tutorial for correcting audio sync errors using Media Player Classic and NanDub.
Here is the link for these programs: Audio Sync tools

Open Media Player Classic, looks like Windows Media Player, but is actually a sophisticated little media player.



Move the slider at the bottom to a point in the film where you can easily check the audio sync.
Pause the video, on the toobar go to Play, Audio, Options. Click on Audio Switcher under Filters, and check the box for Audio Time Shift



Now you have to put in a little work, if the Audio is before the Video, enter a + value, it the Audio is after the Video, enter a - value. I start with a 1000 ms, remember this is just one second, click apply and ok. Play the video and check the sync, adjust as necessary. Pause between tries so you don't have to refind your spot. Sometimes this can take awhile, just be patient and when you have adjusted the Audio to sync with the Video move the slider ahead several times to make sure it holds true for the whole file. I have had to adjust as much as 6000 ms before, so don't be afraid to put in big numbers, just make sure you don't go past your sync.



Once you get your Audio in sync you can close Media Player Classic
Open NanDub,
Go to File, Open Video File, and open the avi.



Click on Audio, Interleving.
Go to the Audio Skew Correction, Delay Audio Track and enter the value you have from Media Player Classic



Click OK, check Audio, Direct Stream Copy is checked, should be. Important, go to Video, make sure that Direct Stream Copy is checked, Not Full Processing Mode. Full Processing Mode will give you a 4 gb file



Now just go to File, Save As Avi, and rename the file. New avi file should have synced audio, be sure to check it.

How to adjust the frame rate of subtitles

NOTE: this tutorial only shows ONE of the ways to adjust the framerate of subtitles. Actually the same thing can be done using Subtitle Workshop, which is the most complete tool for editing subtitles. Here you will find an excellent guide for learning how to use it.
First of all you need Subconvertor 1.2 This freeware application needs no installation. Just extract the file to a folder and execute it.

Using Subconvertor
You only have to use Subconvertor if your subtitles have a different framerate than your video file. Once you've executed Subconvertor a window will pop up:



You don't need to change any settings, but you can uncheck: srt=>ssa newline use \n If this setting is selected, your subtitles files will be saved as .ssa format instead of .srt.

1. Click "Open" and select your subtitles file. This program only supports .srt, .ssa and .sub files, which, however, are the most common filetypes.

2. Input the framerate of your video (for example 29.976 frames per second).

3. Save the file using the "Convert as" option, typing the name.extension of the output subtitles file, unless you've already chosen to save it as .ssa or as .srt

More Simultaneous Downloads With Flashget

I use a download manager, Flashget for my Rapidshare downloading. Since Flashget only offers up to 8 simultaneous downloads, I applied this tweak to this program to enable me to download more than 8 files at one time. This tutorial requires you to modify the registry, so please backup your registry before you start to implement what this tutorial says.


Go to start > Run> then type “regedit”

go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JetCar\JetCar\General

open “General”

right-click with your mouse into the right window and create a new “DWORD” value

name new value “MaxSimJobs”

now doubleclick “MaxSimJobs”, choose “decimal” and enter a new value "100"

press “return” and close registry-editor

In Flashget/tools/ options you can now set max. downloads up to 100 instead of 8.
