			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ever wondered if there&#8217;s a way to have all the TV-Shows you would ever want directly delivered to your media centre as soon as it&#8217;s available online? Over the last years I&#8217;ve experimented with several ways of automatic download, sorting and management of my shows, and I think I have found a setup that works according to my needs.</p>
<p><span id="more-859"></span></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what I currently have in my mediacenter setup:<br />
- <a href="http://www.asrock.com/nettop/spec/ion%20330.asp">Asrock NetTop ION330</a><br />
- <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Western-Digital-Network-Attached-WDH1NC10000N/dp/B001RB1QWW/ref=dp_cp_ob_e_title_0">Western Digital MyBook World Edition II</a></p>
<p>Configurations:<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.wdc.com"title="Western Digital Harddrives" >Western Digital</a> MyBook World edition II:</strong><br />
This box has been configured in the usual way you would set up up according to the manual, however I disabled samba and ftp support, and enabled NFS for speed. Also, I disabled the built in remote management system, and Twonkymedia for speed. Basically, what you want to do is to disable as many services as possible, and leaving the disk as strictly a remote storage disk. I can highly recommend reading up on this site <a href="http://mybookworld.wikidot.com/">http://mybookworld.wikidot.com/</a> They have a lot of useful information regarding this box and how to hack it to do just about everything. I did earlier run this box as a seed-box, but unfortunately it doesn&#8217;t handle high speeds (100mbit) connections very well on torrents.</p>
<p><strong>Asrock NetTop ION330:</strong></p>
<p>This<strong> </strong>box has a lot of configurations, both for my media centre functions, and for my personal projects, but here&#8217;s the basics needed to have a fully functional, automatic downloading, sorting and renaming media box.</p>
<p>The system itself: <a href="http://www.xbmc.org"title="xbmc" >XBMC</a> LiveCD &#8211; For me, this is by far the best media center known to man. Works flawlessly on the box and runs GNU/<a href="http://www.kernel.org"title="linux kernel" >Linux</a> (Ubuntu). Download the ISO image from <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmc/files/XBMC%20Live/Camelot%20-%209.11/xbmc-9.11-live-repack.zip/download">here</a>, burn to a CD and boot up. Follow the installation instructions, and voila!</p>
<p>Now for the nitty gritty configurations and script working in the background and making everything happen.</p>
<p>First of all, you will have to set up <a href="http://www.flexget.com">FlexGet</a> . I have written a complete guide on how to do this <a href="http://jumpingmushroom.com/2009/08/20/getting-the-latest-with-flexget">here</a>.</p>
<p>Then, you will have to install an application to start these downloads with, like <a href="http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no">rTorrent</a>. This is easiest done by running the following command:</p>
<pre class="brush: bash">user@XBMCLive:~$ sudo apt-get install rtorrent</pre>
<p>Then there&#8217;s the configuration:<br />
<em>rtorrent.rc</em></p>
<pre class="brush: bash">max_peers = 131

max_uploads = 11

upload_rate = 2000

directory = /your/path/to/downloading

session=/your/path/to/sessions

schedule = watch_directory,5,5,load_start=/your/watchfolder/*.torrent
schedule = tied_directory,5,5,start_tied=/your/watchfolder/*.torrent
schedule = untied_directory,5,5,stop_untied=/your/watchfolder/*.torrent

schedule = low_diskspace,5,60,close_low_diskspace=100M

execute_log = /your/logfolder/rtorrent.log

port_range = 55556-55560

port_random = no

check_hash = no

use_udp_trackers = yes

encryption = allow_incoming,enable_retry,prefer_plaintext

dht = auto

dht_port = 6881

peer_exchange = yes

on_finished = seed,"execute=mv,-u,$d.get_base_path=,/your/path/to/seeding/"

schedule = ratio,60,60,"close_on_ratio=200"

on_close = move_fin,"execute=mv,-u,$d.get_base_path=,/your/path/to/completed//"

on_close = remove_fin,"execute=rm,$d.get_tied_to_file="</pre>
<p>Here you need to change the following values to suit your needs:</p>
<ul>
<li><em>upload_rate</em> &#8211; Max upload rate for all torrents combined.</li>
<li> <em>directory</em> &#8211; path to where your downloads will be when the download is running.</li>
<li><em>watch/tied/untied_directory</em> &#8211; where you will be placing your .torrent files you want to start.</li>
<li><em>execute_log</em> &#8211; Path to the logfile for all executed actions.</li>
<li> <em>port_range</em> &#8211; Ports you want the torrents to be connectable to. Remember to open these ports on your router/firewall!</li>
<li><em>on_finished</em> &#8211; Path to where you want files to be stored when they&#8217;re seeding.</li>
<li> <em>ratio</em> &#8211; At what share ratio you want your torrent to be stopped. Default is 200%.</li>
<li> <em>on_close</em> &#8211; The directory you want the files to be stored once finished downloading.</li>
</ul>
<p>Once you have this up and running in a screen, the next is to configure two scripts that run as a cron job every day and rename + sort the downloads once they arrive in the completed folder.</p>
<p><strong>Sorting</strong><br />
We want to sort our downloads into neat folders so our XBMC system understand what kind of shows we have. The most important part for this script to work is the directory structure. It must be set up like this:</p>
<pre class="brush: bash">/your/path/Show Name/Season X/</pre>
<p>And here&#8217;s the script that is going to do the job of sorting:<br />
<em>mvfiles.sh</em></p>
<pre class="brush: bash">#!/bin/bash

# specify the base directory to move to
fs="/your/path/to/TV"

# specify the base directory to search
base="/your/path/to/completed/"
for file in `find "$base" | replace " " "~" | egrep 'mkv|avi'`; do

        file=`echo $file | replace "~" " "`

        show=`basename "$file" | grep -io "[^\/]*S[0-9]\{1,2\}" | grep -io ".*[\._ -]" | replace "." " " "_" " " "-" " " `
        while [ -n "`echo "$show" | grep \" \{2\}\"`" ]; do
                show=`echo "$show" | replace "  " " "`
        done

        show=`echo "\`expr "$show" : '[ ]*\(.*\)[ *]$'\`"`
        #echo "\"$show\""
        snum=`basename "$file" | grep -io "S[0-9]\{1,2\}" | grep -io "[1-9]\?[1-9]"`
        season="Season $snum"
        #echo $season

        show=`ls "$fs" | grep -io "$show"`
        #echo "DIR: \"$show\""

        dest=$fs
        if [ -d "$fs/$show/$season/" ]; then
                dest="$fs/$show/$season/"
        else
                if [ -d "$fs/$show/Season$snum" ]; then
                        dest="$fs/$show/Season$snum/"
                else
                        if [ -d "$fs/$show/" ]; then
                                dest=""
                        fi
                fi
        fi

        if [ "$dest" != "" ]; then
                #echo "mv -v \"$file\" \"$dest\""
                mv -v "$file" "$dest"
                wait `pidof mv`
        fi

done

# Delete all .nfo, .srt, .txt files
find "$base" -name *.nfo -exec rm {} \;
# find "$base" -name *.srt -exec rm {} \;
find "$base" -name *.txt -exec rm {} \;

# Delete all empty folders (recursively)
find "$base" -depth -mindepth 1 -type d -empty -exec rmdir {} \;

exit 0;</pre>
<p>As you can see, it works with simple regexp and Linux commands, and after a couple of weeks testing, it does the job very well. If it doesn&#8217;t recognize the name, it leaves the file alone.</p>
<p>Just to note, I did not write this script, unfortunately I do not know who did, but if you&#8217;re out there, thanks! I spent several months trying to find a way to do this, and this script saved me from having to study bash and write it from scratch.</p>
<p><strong>Renaming</strong><br />
In order to rename the files to names more fitting the naming conventions of XBMC, I made a very simple bash script that uses a python script  called <a href="http://github.com/dbr/tvdb_api">tvnamer</a>. This script checks with <a href="http://www.thetvdb.com">TheTVdb.com</a> and renames the file according to what is specified there. Usually this will be <em>&#8220;Show name [01x01] Episode name.ext&#8221;</em> and makes it very easy for XBMC to recognize the show.<br />
<em>renameTV.sh</em></p>
<pre class="brush: bash">#!/bin/bash

/usr/local/bin/tvnamer -b -r /your/path/to/TV &gt; /dev/null 2&gt;&amp;1</pre>
<p>Be aware though, that this script goes through the entire TV folder and renames any episode there without interaction. If you don&#8217;t want this, you might want to figure out another way to set this up.</p>
<p>And last but not least, how to run these scripts automatically. I simply set up a cron job for each one like this, also, I did add a third line that updates the XBMC library automatically once everything is sorted and renamed, so we really have everything ready when we&#8217;re back home.</p>
<pre class="brush: bash">
0 15 * * * sh /your/path/to/scripts/mvfiles.sh &gt;&gt; /var/log/mvfiles.log
0 16 * * * sh /your/path/to/scripts/renameTV.sh
0 17 * * * curl --get "http://localhost:8080/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=ExecBuiltIn&amp;parameter=XBMC.updatelibrary(video) >> /var/log/xbmc-update.log
"</pre>
<p>This runs the first script that moves files at 15:00, and the renaming script at 16:00. Which means when I get home from work at 18:00, everything will be sorted and ready for me. Now be aware, this works great for me,  because I live in Scandinavia, which means most shows I&#8217;m watching come out in the middle of the night here, and gets downloaded during the early hours of the day. This means that by lunch, the files are already to sort.<br />
This might however be different for you if you live in America.</p>
<p>Hope this guide was useful for you! And please leave feedback if you have any questions.</p>
<p><strong>Updated:</strong> Added cron job for updating the XBMC library automatically once everything is sorted and renamed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Has it really been half a year already? Apparently so, because we are in the processes of moving yet again. Our current apartment in Edsberg Centrum (Sollentuna) was only for 6 months, and we were not able to renew it, so we had to find a new place.</p>
<p>There were tons of stress when we first was informed about the fact that we had to move. Mostly because it came a bit like a surprise on us. We knew that we were going to have to move sooner or later, but what we didn&#8217;t know was that it time would fly so fast in <a href="http://beta.stockholmtown.com"title="Stockholm" >Stockholm</a>. When it was three weeks left, we started thinking of emergency solutions in case we didn&#8217;t find anything. I think we settled with storing everything at a storage facility and finding a hotel room that was cheap enough to live in for a month. Then, all of a sudden, after sending tons and tons of mails to various apartments, we got invited to come look at an apartment. And it actually turned out being a really nice one! And the best of all, the landlord for the apartment was a total geek and we ended up talking more about servers and work then the actual apartment. I think that&#8217;s made us get the place.</p>
<p>So, new apartment, and opposite side of town. This time we&#8217;ll be living in Rågsved,which is actually just about 20-ish minutes from my work, and about 30min from <a href="http://www.darkbuttons.com"title="Alina\'s blog" >Alina</a>s job. Really perfect placement, and the apartment itself is really nice. Not as big as what we had, but we never managed to fill up that apartment with things anyway. We have arranged for friends helping with the moving this weekend, and have a whole week to clean out the old one.</p>
<p>This time I will try to take some photos of the new place and post them here. For some reason I never got around to posting pictures of the old one.</p>
<p>And of course, the apartment has 100/100 fibre connection. Priorities, I know!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people these days are starting to get tired of their <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone"title="iPhone" >iPhone</a>s, and are looking for places to maybe clench their thirst for gadgetry, either by buying one of the many Android phones out there, like the Nexus one or the Droid. However, for us mortals that don&#8217;t have that much cash to throw around on new gadgets, you can do some minor adjustments and make your iPhone feel new and exciting.<br />
<span id="more-842"></span><br />
<strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Step 1:</span></strong></p>
<p>Jailbreak it. I know, it&#8217;s not very legal now is it? Or at least it&#8217;s a gray zone. However, it enables you to fully enjoy your phone the way it should be. No limitations, and all the benefits of jailbreak tweaks and applications. Be aware though, you will break your warranty by doing this, and it seems Apple have started finding new ways to block jailbreakers from enjoying their phones (ref: <a href="http://thebigboss.org/2010/02/02/iphone-313-out-do-not-update/">The 3.1.3 update</a>).</p>
<p>Also, it seems they have started blocking users to the app store that are running jailbroken software (ref: <a href="http://thebigboss.org/2010/02/02/iphone-313-out-do-not-update/">Apple Bans iPhone hackers</a>). Note: This might be users that are running pirated app store apps, not jailbroken apps, which is what I will present here.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Step 2:</strong></span></p>
<p>Ok, so you&#8217;ve jailbroken your phone, now what? I&#8217;ll tell you what. Here&#8217;s a small list of tweaks and applications that is in no way available through the regular Apple ways.</p>

<a href="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/blog-pictures/photo.jpg" title="" class="shutterset_singlepic49" >
	<img class="ngg-singlepic" src="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/cache/49__320x240_photo.jpg" alt="android lock" title="android lock" />
</a>

<p>- <strong>Android lock</strong>: (<em>Free</em>) Yeah, someone has made an effort and made an lock screen more similar to the one Android uses. This will make it harder for your buddies to tamper with your phone and surf on your pay-pr-kilobyte connection for for large non-iPhone supported sites.</p>

<a href="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/blog-pictures/photo-3.jpg" title="" class="shutterset_singlepic48" >
	<img class="ngg-singlepic" src="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/cache/48__320x240_photo-3.jpg" alt="sbsettings" title="sbsettings" />
</a>

<p>- <strong>SBsettings</strong>: (<em>Free</em>) Tired of having to go into settings to enable and disable the wifi, Bluetooth or airplane mode all the time? With sbsettings you simply swipe across the topbar, and you have instant access to all settings you would ever need.</p>

<a href="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/blog-pictures/photo-2.jpg" title="" class="shutterset_singlepic47" >
	<img class="ngg-singlepic" src="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/cache/47__320x240_photo-2.jpg" alt="qtweeter" title="qtweeter" />
</a>

<p>- <strong>qTweeter</strong>: (<em>About 1$</em>) If your an avid Twitter user, then you want your tweets out as fast as possible. This app is another swipe-to-access app, where you slide your finger down from the top bar. This produces a window for instant tweets (and Facebook updates).</p>

<a href="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/blog-pictures/kirikae.jpg" title="" class="shutterset_singlepic50" >
	<img class="ngg-singlepic" src="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/cache/50__320x240_kirikae.jpg" alt="50  320x240 kirikae Make your iPhone feel new again" title="kirikae" />
</a>

<p>- <strong>Backgrounder/Kirikae</strong>: (<em>Free</em>) This is a combo suggestion, as both apps really work well together. Backgrounder enables you to do exactly that, place running applications in the background. This way you can run your last.fm/spotify in the background, while surfing the web or reading your mail. Kirikae enables you to quickly do switches between your running apps by a simple tap on the specified button (in my case i double click the home button).</p>
<p>Backgrounder doesn&#8217;t really have something to take a screenshot of, but works by simply holding the home button. You then get a message saying the app has been backgrounded, and you can change to and from with Kirikae.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Step 3:</strong></span></p>
<p>Have fun! With these additions to your iPhone, you might feel it&#8217;s worth keeping for a little while longer. And if not, enjoy your next gadget!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Having worked with domains now for well over a year, I&#8217;ve realized that I actually should try finding a domain that better suits me as a mail address domain. Right now my domain is a bit hard for people to get when I write it down on paper.</p>
<p>I have a few options:</p>
<p>- I could try buying up the .no/.com domain I want from another owner, but the downside would be that I might have to end up paying allot of money for it.</p>
<p>- I could get an obscure ccTLD (Country code Top-Level domain), but the problem then is, normal people don&#8217;t know about that many extensions. The main extensions are .com/.net/.org and for Norwegians it&#8217;s .no. Having an extension like .sh, .tc, .cx or .la as an extension would just confuse people.</p>
<p>- Another option is to simply sit and wait for a domain to &#8220;maybe&#8221; expire and steal it before it&#8217;s re-registered by the owner, but this involves allot of waiting, and domains these days usually don&#8217;t expire unless the owner does not pay for it.</p>
<p>I might just ending up with the second solution. It&#8217;s not the best, but I don&#8217;t want to pay allot of money, and I can&#8217;t be bothered waiting for the domain I want to be released. I am monitoring the domains, and will no doubt snatch it if it does release, but I can always forward mail to another domain when I get it.</p>
<p>If you have any suggestions to what domain I should try to go for, please don&#8217;t hesitate to drop me a note!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ever since Christmas I&#8217;ve been playing around with this fairly new <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone"title="iPhone" >iPhone</a> app. It&#8217;s called <a href="http://www.lexwarelabs.com/sleepcycle/">Sleep cycle alarm</a> and basically what it does, is registering your movement during sleep, and wakes you up at a time within 30 minutes prior to your set time, when you are most awake.</p>
<p>After some time using it, I must say it&#8217;s working very well! Every time I&#8217;ve woke up with it, I&#8217;ve been feeling more awake then when using my regular alarm. All tough this might be my subconscious tricking me, I don&#8217;t really care. It feels better to wake up, and I get graphs of my sleeping patterns, which are always great fun.</p>
<p>Below you will see a collection of graphs with the sleep statistics from 27 December until today. These represent how I have slept during this time,  and  according to the latest statistics on my phone, I sleep an average of 6 hours and 46 minutes every night.</p>

<p>I can highly recommend anyone with an iPhone having problems feeling tired and agitated when getting up in the morning,  to try this app. Just remember, you have to use it for at least 3 days for the app to properly register your sleeping patterns and wake you up at the best possible time. In the beginning it will wake you up precisely at the set hour, but after the initial registrations, it will start waking you up earlier.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After I moved to <a href="http://beta.stockholmtown.com"title="Stockholm" >Stockholm</a>, I have had to travel for quite a long distance to get to work. In <a href="http://www.trondheim.com"title="Trondheim" >Trondheim</a> it only took me about 15-20 minutes to get to work. Here it takes me 55 minutes, and I have to change from bus to underground along the way.</p>
<p>With all this time, and not much to do then to sit and wait to get from A to B, I had to find something that helped time go by faster, so I decided it was time to start reading books again.<br />
I remember when I was working at <a href="http://www.ringnes.no/omringnes/bryggerieroganlegg/Sider/ecdahls.aspx">Ringnes E.C. Dahls Bryggeri A/S</a>, I used to listen to audio books a lot, and I really miss that, so after searching around a bit I found an application for my <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone"title="iPhone" >iPhone</a> that suited my needs called <a href="http://www.lexcycle.com/">Stanza</a>. Seeing as I have my hands free at the bus and train, I figured I could save storage space and time by reading eBooks instead of audio books, and for this <a href="http://www.lexcycle.com/"title="Stanza book reader" >Stanza</a> is perfect.</p>
<p>So far I h ave managed to get through some books already, so here&#8217;s a short review of what I think about them:</p>
<p><span id="more-749"></span></p>
<h2><strong>Dan Brown &#8211; The Lost Symbol</strong></h2>

<a href="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/blog-pictures/lostsymbol.jpg" title="" class="shutterset_singlepic5" >
	<img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-left" src="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/cache/5__320x240_lostsymbol.jpg" alt="5  320x240 lostsymbol Books on the go" title="lostsymbol" />
</a>

<p>No doubt a very intriguing book, and reading it made time just fly by in seconds, but during the entire book, one thing kept bothering me. Dan Brown is mocking every conspiracy theorist that disagrees with what he means is correct, through his character Robert Langdon. Why does he do that? Sure, he might disagree with them, but to openly mock people thinking that the Freemasons where something more then just a society of great men really bothers me. In example, there are people that believe Freemasons where satanic worshippers, and they are in their liberty to believe that. Not to be told that they are stupid to think like this by a character in a book.<br />
The story itself was very good though, very typical Dan Brown-esque, with crime, action, mysteries and a touch of romance. Just the way we like it.</p>
<h2><strong>The graveyard book</strong></h2>

<a href="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/blog-pictures/thegraveyardbook_hardcover.jpg" title="" class="shutterset_singlepic6" >
	<img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-left" src="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/cache/6__320x240_thegraveyardbook_hardcover.jpg" alt="6  320x240 thegraveyardbook hardcover Books on the go" title="thegraveyardbook_hardcover" />
</a>

<p>I have been wanting to read this book ever since it came out, and <a href="http://www.darkbuttons.com"title="Alina\'s blog" >Alina</a> have the book, but I usually never get around to picking up a book when I get home, and I hate lugging books around with me when I&#8217;m out, so getting this book as an eBook right away was kind of predestined. The book is classified as a children&#8217;s book, but it should really be classified as &#8220;for all ages&#8221;, because this book is just as entertaining and fun for an adult as a child.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s the books I have been reading so far, and right now I&#8217;m currently reading this book:</p>
<h2><strong>World of Warcraft: Arthas: Rise of the Lich King</strong></h2>
<p>
<a href="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/blog-pictures/9781416550778.jpg" title="" class="shutterset_singlepic4" >
	<img class="ngg-singlepic ngg-left" src="http://jumpingmushroom.com/wp-content/gallery/cache/4__320x240_9781416550778.jpg" alt="4  320x240 9781416550778 Books on the go" title="9781416550778" />
</a>
<strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>I have really not read much of this yet, but the first chapter seems promising. I have a feeling that I&#8217;m going to read through this book in no time, as I love the Warcraft lore.</p>
<p>Also on my list of books-to-read are these (in no particular order):</p>
<p>Stephen King &#8211; The stand<br />
Neil Gaiman &#8211; Anansi boys<br />
Max Brooks &#8211; World war Z<br />
Mel Odom &#8211; Hellgate London<br />
Terry Brooks &#8211; The Landover series<br />
Robert Jordan &#8211; Wheel of time series<br />
Grahame-Smith Seth &#8211; Pride and Prejudice and zombies<br />
Yann Martel &#8211; Life of Pi<br />
Terry Pratchett &#8211; The colour of magic<br />
Brent Weeks &#8211; The way of shadows<br />
Orson Scott Card &#8211; Enders game</p>
<p>There are more as well, but these should keep me busy for quite a lot of work days.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After playing around with my Nintendo <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii"title="Nintendo Wii" >Wii</a> all Sunday, I finally managed to set everything up so that I can boot backed up games directly from my 32GB USB stick. Here&#8217;s what I did.</p>
<p><strong>Installing homebrew channel</strong></p>
<p>The first step will be to have access to the <a href="http://hbc.hackmii.com/">homebrew channel</a> on your Wii.<strong> </strong>This can be accomplished by several ways. I used the Twilight hack described here <a href="http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Twilight_Hack">http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Twilight_Hack</a> however, this has been fixed in later updates of the Wii firmware. However the  Indiana Pwns hack explained here <a href="http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Indiana_Pwns">http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Indiana_Pwns</a> currently works with the latest 4.0, 4.1 and 4.2 system menus.</p>
<p>You can also use the BannerBomb hack which is explained in this article <a href="http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Bannerbomb">http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Bannerbomb</a></p>
<p>I am however not going to explain in detail the software hacking of the Wii, as this was something I did when I first got the Wii, by going out and buying The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, so I could load the hacked save game and start installing home brew. This is all explained in the links I posted and should be enough to get you started.</p>
<p><strong>Installing the latest IOS package cIOSCORP</strong></p>
<p>In order for the system to be able to load the latest games without having to update the system itself, we need the latest IOS packages. These packages can be installed in numerous amounts of ways, but I found it easiest to use a package installer called cIOSCORP. This installed all the latest IOS packages, patched with whatever it needed to have patched, and as many as needed to run any game available on the market. More info and download of the package can be found here <a href="http://cioscorp.com/">http://cioscorp.com/</a></p>
<p>Simply explained is that you download the package, place it under apps/ on your SD card and start the install through the homebrew channel. Some basics about how you do this here <a href="http://sites.google.com/site/completesg/how-to-use/homebrew-channel">http://sites.google.com/site/completesg/how-to-use/homebrew-channel</a></p>
<p><strong> Making a WBFS USB stick with wbfsmanager</strong></p>
<p>In order to play games<strong> </strong>from an USB stick, the file system on the USB stick have to be altered to use the WBFS system the Wii uses to read the game DVD&#8217;s etc. This can be accomplished by using a simple application called WBFS Manager, and can be downloaded here <a href="http://wbfsmanager.codeplex.com/">http://wbfsmanager.codeplex.com/</a> Simply follow this guide <a href="http://adewii.wordpress.com/2009/07/31/howto-wbfs-manager-for-windows-basics/">http://adewii.wordpress.com/2009/07/31/howto-wbfs-manager-for-windows-basics/</a> and you will have the USB stick converted to WBFS in no time. This guide also explains how to transfer the ISO files onto your USB stick.</p>
<p><strong>Scrubbing Wii game isos and adding to usb stick</strong></p>
<p>It is also possible to do a &#8220;scrub&#8221; of the ISO images for games you backup. This makes them smaller, which is what we want when we are storing games on an USB stick. You can download the Wii scrubber here <a href="http://wiiscrubber.com/">http://wiiscrubber.com/</a> Once the game you have scrubbed is done, transfer it to the WBFS USB stick as shown in the link above.</p>
<p><strong>Installing an USB loader</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;m currently on a slight experimental stage with this, but right now I&#8217;m using an USB loader called WiiFlow which is working quite well. Download it here <a href="http://wiiflow.wiitdb.com/">http://wiiflow.wiitdb.com/</a> Simply place the package inside the apps/ folder on your SD card to run it from the homebrew channel. If everything is working as it should, you will be asked to insert the USB stick and the games placed on the stick will show up!</p>
<p>I know there is another launcher available, enabling you to launch games directly from the channel menu explained here <a href="http://sites.google.com/site/completesg/backup-launchers/usb/loadstructor">http://sites.google.com/site/completesg/backup-launchers/usb/loadstructor</a> which I&#8217;m going to try out, but I just managed to boot up Super Mario Galaxy, and my girlfriend has now claimed the Wii for the evening ;)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I have been drooling on the HTC hero phone for quite some time now, but mor specifically the Android system running on it. Having such a dynamic and easy to modify system is something you can only dream of using the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone"title="iPhone" >iPhone</a>.<br />
I did however manage to put together a decent looking interface by calling forth the power of jailbreak.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">For the lock screen I stripped away all the clutter, and ended up with a very clean look. On the springboard I decided to use my cute little penguin wallpaper, and sorted my icons to not get in the way of him. Also, I added an app that displays the current weather over his head.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Here are a couple of shots showing how it ended up looking:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Seeing as I&#8217;m slightly lazy, I wanted to find a way to automatically download all TV-Series and movies, without any human interaction.</p>
<p>After searching around a bit, I stumbled upon a <a href="http://www.python.org/">python</a> script called <a href="http://flexget.com/">Flexget</a>. The easy explanation for what kind of script this is the following:</p>
<p><strong>You specify where to download from, what to download, and where to download it to.</strong></p>
<p>The long explanation all tough, is so much more interesting!</p>
<p>Here is a config file I have compiled together:</p>
<pre class="brush: yaml">global:
  statistics:
   file: /path/to/your/wwwroot

  email:
    from: <a href="http://www.flexget.com"title="Flexget" >flexget</a>@myserver.com
    to: your@mailaddress.com
    smtp_host: mail.mailaddress.com
    smtp_port: 25
    smtp_login: true
    smtp_username: your@mailaddress.com
    smtp_password: yourpassword123

feeds:
  tv-shows:
    rss: http://www.website.com/rssfeed.php
    series:
      - True Blood:
          timeframe:
            hours: 6
            enough: 720p
      - Eureka:
          timeframe:
            hours: 12
            enough: 720p
      - Family Guy
      - Dirty Jobs

    download: /path/to/torrent/watchdir

  movies:
    rss: http://www.website.com/rssfeed.php
    limit_new: 3
    imdb:
      min_score: 6.2
      min_votes: 6000
      min_year: 1997
    download: /path/to/torrent/watchdir

  flexget:
    interval: 3 days
    html: http://download.flexget.com/0.9/
    regexp:
      accept:
        - flexget.*zip
    download: /root/fgreleases

  <a href="http://www.diggnation.com"title="Diggnation Podcast" >diggnation</a>:
    interval: 3 days
    rss: http://revision3.com/diggnation/feed/MP4-hd30
    limit_new: 1
    regexp:
      accept:
        - diggnation*.mp4
    exec: wget -b -P /path/to/podcast/directory %(url)s</pre>
<p>And here is an explanation on what each part does:</p>
<p>First part:</p>
<pre class="brush: yaml">global:
  statistics:
   file: /path/to/your/wwwroot</pre>
<p>Basically, this part sets all the global settings of the entire config file. in this section I&#8217;ve only set up that statistics for all downloads should be parsed to an index file on my box. Here you will see what kind of sites that generate the most results.</p>
<p>Second part:</p>
<pre class="brush: yaml">  email:
    from: flexget@myserver.com
    to: your@mailaddress.com
    smtp_host: mail.mailaddress.com
    smtp_port: 25
    smtp_login: true
    smtp_username: your@mailaddress.com
    smtp_password: yourpassword123</pre>
<p>This part is very cool. It&#8217;s for setting up so you get a mail as soon as a new show/movie/whatever is downloaded. Combine this with an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone"title="iPhone" >iPhone</a> and a push mail service, and you got yourself an instant notification as soon as your favorite show has started downloading. Also, If you combine this with the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deluge">Deluge</a> <a href="http://flexget.com/wiki/Plugins/deluge">plugin in Flexget</a>, you can set up Deluge to mail you as soon as the download has finished!</p>
<p>Third part:</p>
<pre class="brush: yaml">feeds:
  tv-shows:
    rss: http://www.website.com/rssfeed.php
    series:
      - True Blood:
          timeframe:
            hours: 6
            enough: 720p
      - Eureka:
          timeframe:
            hours: 12
            enough: 720p
      - Family Guy
      - Dirty Jobs
    download: /path/to/torrent/watchdir</pre>
<p>Now for the things that really matter. The downloads. Here I have specified the following values:</p>
<ul>
<li>feeds: &#8211; This indicates that the following list will consist of rss feeds</li>
<li>tv-shows: &#8211; This just tells flexget that the feed we are about to parse will consist of tv-shows. It will then make it easier for flexget to understand how to parse the names, focus on season and episode numbers and so on.</li>
<li>rss: &#8211; Here we just specify the rss feed for a place to get the latest tv-shows.</li>
<li>series: &#8211; This part is the fun part. Here you just write the name of the show you want to get. There are no real rules needed to specify, no regexp to focus on, just write the name, that&#8217;s it. Just remember to write it as it&#8217;s shown in the feed, otherwise flexget will get confused.</li>
<li>timeframe: &#8211; Here we want to specifiy some extra settings. The timeframe value can make use of the settings &#8220;hours&#8221; and &#8220;enough&#8221;. This makes it so that IF the 720p version of a release has not been displayed within 6 hours, the SD (Standard definition) version should be downloaded.</li>
<li>download: Here is where the .torrent file will get downloaded. After this, the torrent client (in my case <a href="http://www.transmissionbt.com/">transmission</a>) will take over and start downloading.</li>
</ul>
<p>Fourth part:</p>
<pre class="brush: yaml">  movies:
    rss: http://www.website.com/rssfeed.php
    limit_new: 3
    imdb:
      min_score: 6.2
      min_votes: 6000
      min_year: 1997
    download: /path/to/torrent/watchdir</pre>
<p>This second part is for downloading the latest HD movie releases, which in turn gets checked through <a href="http://www.imdb.com">IMDB</a> to check the rating (I&#8217;ll explain this later).</p>
<ul type="circle">
<li>movies: &#8211; This just tells flexget that we are now dealing with movies, not tv-shows.</li>
<li>rss: &#8211; Same as above, the rss feed for a site where you are to download from.</li>
<li>limit_new: 1 &#8211; I had to add this in order to not kill of my box completely. Basically it only checks one link each time the cron job is run (which is once every hour).</li>
<li>imdb: &#8211; Here we tell flexget that the following will be values used to check towards imdb.</li>
<li>min_score: 6.2 &#8211; We don&#8217;t want crap movies in our archives, so here we tell flexget to only download movies with a rating ABOVE 6.2 on IMDB.</li>
<li>min_votes: 6000 &#8211; We also don&#8217;t want the script to download movies where there are only 100 votes (which is mostly the actors and cast of the movie) and have received a high initial rating.</li>
<li>download: &#8211; Same as above, download path is to the watch-dir for your torrent client.</li>
</ul>
<p>The third part:</p>
<pre class="brush: yaml">  flexget:
    interval: 3 days
    html: http://download.flexget.com/0.9/
    regexp:
      accept:
        - flexget.*zip
    download: /root/fgreleases</pre>
<p>We of course want to keep up with the latest updates of the script. There might be changes to <a href="http://www.imdb.com">IMDB</a> that require the script to be updated, or new features which we can take use of. That&#8217;s where this part comes in.</p>
<ul>
<li>flexget: &#8211; Loads the flexget module, which is made specifically for downloading latest updates of flexget.</li>
<li>interval: 3 days &#8211; Check every 3 days for new updates.</li>
<li>html: &#8211; Seeing as there is no rss feed for releases, we have to rely on html parsing. That&#8217;s where this module comes in.</li>
<li>patterns: &#8211; Here we have to use regexp in order to dive through the html code, and finding the file we need.</li>
<li>download: &#8211; Aaand where to download the release. Here we just dump it in a folder on our home path.</li>
</ul>
<p>The last part:</p>
<pre class="brush: yaml">  diggnation:
    interval: 3 days
    rss: http://revision3.com/diggnation/feed/MP4-hd30
    limit_new: 1
    regexp:
      accept:
        - diggnation*.mp4
    exec: wget -b -P /path/to/podcast/directory %(url)s</pre>
<p>I watch a lot of <a href="http://www.diggnation.com">Diggnation</a>, so naturally it would be cool to have the latest episodes waiting for me on my box when they are available. This part simply uses more or less the same functions as the flexget section, except it also specifies that it should only download the newest link found. I have also set it to use wget to download it, and not flexgets own get function, as 1. It takes up a lot of load, and 2. The download can last for quite some time, which in turn can make the script start running in several instances.</p>
<p>So that&#8217;s it! I really love this script and how versatile it is. If you wish to read more about using flexget and how to modify it to your needs:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Things have actually started happening for once! Here&#8217;s the latest news:</p>
<ul>
<li>We are heading over to <a href="http://beta.stockholmtown.com"title="Stockholm" >Stockholm</a> this Friday. There we will be looking at apartments that we have arranged meetings with.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Stockholm HQ will be paying for our hotel room for the weekend.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>We have made an advert announcing that we are looking for an apartment and t hat we are going to Stockholm this weekend here, there has been some response, but nothing interesting yet. One was too expensive (8300,-) and the other sent us a link to an advert that wasn&#8217;t correct. Seems the person had pasted the wrong link or something.</li>
</ul>
<p>Hopefully by the end of this week we will have an apartment to move into. We are also going to be working on getting a deal with a company to move our things to Stockholm. This will probably also be covered by my company.</p>
<p>It also seems that we are having progress with our current apartment. The landlord have had several people over to look at the apartment, and we have about 3 people interested. He will be showing more people the apartment this Friday, which means there will be someone taking over the apartment when we move. We had some problems with the landlord regarding this, but it&#8217;s been sorted out.. We&#8217;ll see how that goes.</p>
<p>Next week will probably consist of packing up everything, getting rid of trash we won&#8217;t need (so if someone will be able to drive us around and get rid of some junk, please let us know!)  and arranging for pick-up/drop off. If everything goes according to plan, we will be living in Stockholm from 01.09.2009!</p>
