eboostr beta2 uninstall and new beta 3

By artamir | October 10th, 2007 |

Hi. When i have uninstalled eboostr, it asked to me if i should send a report. on “yes” it opens a “not found” internet page. When i install the eboostr beta 3 program, i want to create an icon group in my menu folder “start/utilities/eboostr”, but it seems to me eboostr doesn’t support the “/” (or the appropriate one) when creating the start menu icon group.

The beta 3 seems to be faster on cache building. All my apps seem to work well. I’d like, when building the cache, words “building cache x%” not blinking. I think it would be better a fixed “building cache x%”, with a small animation about the cache building (windows data copy like) near the words. A time bar (or extimated time) should be useful.

Now i have a 3Gb cache, and have any problem.

Building Cache Going Much Slower…

By fastest963 | October 9th, 2007 |

Is it just me or is the building cache taking much longer??

Also, as I said in my other post, the loading bar is not correctly working.

Building Cache Progress Bar isn’t Working…

By fastest963 | |

I added my new device in BETA 3 and then selected ‘yes’ to ‘Do you want to add content now’ (something like that) and then it started however the progress bar was not working.  The flashing “building cache…” was flashing and updating the % but not the progress bar.

To check the problem, I clicked Stop Build Cache and it still doesnt seem to be working.

Also, can someone answer my question post on….

Annoyingly caching stuff I’m working on

By jon21 | |

I do a fair bit of web design and coding, and I was dismayed to find that I could not view my changes in my popular web browser, firefox. I am attributing this problem to eBoostr caching a version of my site when I open it from my local web server, in the form of apache2triad, and view it. When I make a few changes in Dreamweaver, I can’t view them, as a quick look at the source code of the page shows that the page being viewed is a previous, probably cached, version of the page. If I wasn’t using constantly changing php scripted pages, I’d probably just live with it, but as it stands I’m a bit stuck and the only solution I see would be disabling eBoostr when I use php, which is a shame, as I’ve definitely noticed a slight increase in performance.

nice to have

It would be nice if there would be a setting ‘Minimize to systray on exit’ on the control center, so you could ‘close’ the window in the upper right corner with the red exit-button instead of using the menu.

Problems with Winamp and ASIO plugin

By Ethaniel | October 8th, 2007 |

It seems the low latency requirements of the ASIO plugin for Winamp (and the ASIO driver as well) clashes directly with Eboostr caching, adding sudden pauses to an mp3 while playing. These pauses last less than a second, but they are there. The standard DirectSound plugin works fine, though. Probably a true high speed device used in caching won’t have this kind of problem.

Outlook

Outlook 2007 has various problems when started with ebooster

outlook express works wrong

… outlook sometimes freezes itself on a new html email. It isn’t possible to delete or drag it into another folder. It can’t be readed too, and an error message appears into the email visualization box. I have to shut down outlook and start it again. then, the email results as dragged to the folder or deleted, like i did in the past freezed session. Some ideas?

Not doing anything

By getis2213 | |

I just did the boot process and allocation tests and i got some pretty disappointing results. For one, my ratio was 0.839. Direct Access was way better than using eBooster. I installed everything correctly and I am using a SanDisk 512MB flash usb drive and allocated 450MB of this drive for cache use. I am puzzled as to why this program would decrease my system performance.

Just thought i would get my 2 cents in there.
