DONE: Movie Cache Viewer
« on: November 22, 2005, 04:58 PM »
Here's a tool I'd really love to have (and I can think of quite some people who'd also like it).

A program like "SWF Cache Viewer" (http://www.browsertools.net/SWF-Opener/index.html) but for movie files (avi, wmv, mov, mpeg, mpg)... sorted after day/date.

Usage: I visit some site with funny videos and clips and see something I like. Instead of browsing to Temporay Internet Files, search the file, copy it to clipboard, get bugged by Windows about some security issue, go to some other folder, paste... I'd just use "Movie Cache Viewer".

:) Great idea, wr957!

CacheSort - Automatically moves files from Internet Explorer's cache into folders based on their extensions.

Features:
- Very handy for storing movies and other files downloaded from the Internet.
- Can be used to watch other folders.
- Run a program when a new file is found.



You'll find the downloads and more info at Skrommel Software.

What I really would like is to be able to extract the urls and more from the cache to sort and comment the downloaded files more accurately. Maybe later...

Well done, Skrommel - that looks great!  What chance versions for Firefox and Opera?

:) Just change the source line in the ini-file.

Also, I've added an option to copy instead of moving the files from the folder, just remember to delete the existing ini file when downloading the latest version.

I don't know where to look to find cached files for Firefox or Opera.  (IE was in c:\Windows\Temp\Temporary Internet Files\

I did an Agent Ransack and FileFinder search for files but not finding what I'm looking for.  Where should I be looking?

:) In FireFox the default location is C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\[profilename]\Cache directory

In Opera you can find the location by selecting Tools > Preferences > Advanced > History.

GREAT JOB!!! I Love this app!
In fact I love all of your apps.... How did you learn to be so good in that small scripting AutoHotkey language?
That is really cool.

I was wondering if you could make a tool to lock every window EXCEPT a particular one. Like if i have to work on a paper, I would ONLY be able to use Microsoft Word until i am done the paper (prevent distractions).
