yFlicks is on macZOT

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

If you have been pondering buying yFlicks, our movie viewer/manager, today might be the perfect day to do just that. We’re offering yFlicks at a special introductory price of just $11.95 on macZOT; so head on over there and get it.

As always with macZOT, this offer is only valid for one day.

yFlicks 2.0.1

Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

yFlicks 2.0.1 adds support for downloading videos from DailyMotion and CollegeHumor. And now that Mac OS X 10.5 has been demoed in its final form, we thought we might as well throw in an optional Leopard-style main window behavior/texture that changes its hue depending on whether yFlicks is the frontmost application.

Also improves context menus and fixes two minor, yet pesky bugs that prompted us to release this update as soon as possible — see the changes log for more details.

yFlicks 2.0

Friday, June 8th, 2007

yFlicks 2.0 is such a huge step forward, we were actually considering calling it yFlicks 3.0.

Seriously: There are more improvements than we can even remember right now, but the two most important things are full support for the Apple Remote — including access to all of your library just by hitting the “Menu” button — and the option to have yFlicks keep your library organized. The latter is quite similar to what iTunes does with your music: Name changes as well as your library’s folder structure are automatically reflected on the file system level when you enable this feature. If you’re interested in a more extensive list of changes, look here.

Oh, and by the way: yFlicks 2.0 is a free upgrade for registered users.

yFlicks 1.1

Monday, April 23rd, 2007

yFlicks 1.1 adds smart groups, which let you filter all of your library’s contents by criteria such as name, rating, and date added. We’re also supporting downloads from two more video communities now, namely SevenLoad and ClipFish.


Update: There was a small typo in the original source code for yFlicks 1.1 that prevented you from deleting groups. Just download yFlicks 1.1 once more if you’re experiencing this problem.

We’re totally Web 2.0

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

We are proud to present two quick tour videos, giving you a basic idea of how Butler and yFlicks work, respectively. These videos have been created by loyal users and — dare we say — good friends of ours, which makes us feel deeply grateful.

And just so you know: If you’re interested in pointing out what you like most about our products in a similar fashion, just drop us a line. We’ll be more than happy to link to your videos.

yFlicks 1.0.2

Monday, March 12th, 2007

yFlicks 1.0.2 mainly improves drag & drop support. For instance, yFlicks now generates groups automatically whenever you add file system folders to its library, representing subfolder hierarchies as nested groups where appropriate.

Moreover, you can now define seperate sorting criteria for each group. These criteria are also reflected in the library view on the left hand side of yFlicks’ main window.

yFlicks 1.0.1

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

yFlicks 1.0.1 adds support for MyVideo, a German online video community, and displays a download status when downloading online videos from YouTube, for instance. Also fixes two minor bugs.
