Alfred Tip: Convert files to an Apple Tv compatible format

Don from dirtdon.com recently lured my interest in shell scripts that makes sense to use from Alfreds actions menu. He did so by writing an amazing article with some of favorite bash scripts, that he had made specifically for Alfred. He had a fantastic script for converting video files to an Apple Tv friendly format, that I saw great potential in. I therefore tried to get the script up and running on my own machine, and in the process of doing so, I found a bug in his script. I fixed it and told him about my fix.

Alfred Tip: Show/Hide hidden files in finder

If you ever have to view the hidden files on your mac, you will know that it can be quite cumbersome to remember and then use the terminal commands for showing these files. I do this all the time, so I thought I would make a shell script that could do it for me. The nice thing about shell scripts is that they can be nicely integrated with alfred. The way I have it setup, lets me simply type “show hidden files” in alfred when ever I need to see them, and if I do it again they will magically be hidden again.

You can get the same setup by downloading my script, and make a shortcut to it in the alfred preferencepane.as shown below.

Freebie: Suave Theme Pack

This story started a week ago, when I discovered the iPhone theme called Suave. The Suave theme is a beutiful theme with lots of icons, but they are all scattered over at MacThemes.com. My original thought was to make a collection of all the great things at the site, and then upload it for everyone to enjoy. However after using tree days collecting, renaming and sorting all the things, another lad uploaded his take on the exact same project just before me. I was extreamly angry and sad when this came to my attention, tree days was wasted. But after looking through his pack I was happily surprised, he was missing some of the stuff I had collected. So I chopped off all the parts he had already covered and thought I would share it with you guys. Enjoy!!!
