Guest jacoch Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 This new version adds the following features: - A bug has been fixed when zipping files. If an error was displayed (file locked for example), the focus was not given back to the zip progress dialog. It was then impossible to cancel the process. - Send by IR function has been improved. - An icon has been added to the system for ZIP files. - SmartExplorer is registered in the system to handle ZIP files. It's now possible to unzip a file attached to an email or on a web page. - New function 'Zip to...' has been added. It allows you to choose the destination folder before unzipping the content.

Guest MoRFLeZ Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 Installed the latest Smart Explorer. I choose a mpeg file, select it and zip it using compression 9! It's the same size as before zipping it!? I choose the same file and zip it using compression 5. It's still not any smaller. Now did I miss a point here!? Did you 'just' add zip support to be able to handle zip files. And is it not spose to be a smaller file!? Also, I don't get an icon for zip files... :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MoRFLeZ Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 Hmm also, after having installed the update, the icons for all my programs in the Start Menu, are just 'default' lil white/blue squares. Instead of their 'custom' icons... Now there must be an easy way to fix this!? Edited: Nevermind - it cleared itself up. Went into Task Manger and quit all programs - and the programs menu looked perfect *ponder* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest caio1 Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 @morflez About compression ratio I think that mpg file are already compressed. Try to zip the same mpg on your pc to see if there's a different result. Caio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MoRFLeZ Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 Aahhh now that makes sense *feels quite stOpid* There wasn't much of a differ, when I zipped it on my PC either! Oh well! Now just one thing to go ... why don't I see zip icons!? *eck* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jacoch Posted April 27, 2003 Report Share Posted April 27, 2003 You're right. There was a mistake in my setup. I've updated it on the web site (april 27th @ 21:48 ). If you don't have zip icons in the view or in your emails, please redownload installer. Sorry for the trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest badboy4life Posted April 28, 2003 Report Share Posted April 28, 2003 Great piece of software, don't know how i lived without it. I'm having a problem when i select a zipped file from a web-site it just says 'this file cannot be viewed on this device', I thought this new version allowed the file to be opened from the web?

Guest HelloDave Posted April 29, 2003 Report Share Posted April 29, 2003 Dumb question, but how do you register SmartExplorer? I can't seem to get the cursor into the "Owner Name" box, so it keeps saying "invalid serial number". Am I missing something?! :oops: I'm sure I saw this question somewhere else, but I can't find it now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Simon Desser Posted April 29, 2003 Report Share Posted April 29, 2003 Yeah, you need to put your name and email address in the phone under "Settings" and then "Owner Information" (nothing to do with Smart Explorer) then when you put the code in Smart Explorer it should work.

Guest madu Posted April 30, 2003 Report Share Posted April 30, 2003 I was compressing a BMP and ended up with a zip same size (or even a wee bit bigger) as the BMP or 2 BMPs. Also tried it with XML files and both times used compression 5 and then 9. Am using v1.0b4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest EmpzB Posted May 1, 2003 Report Share Posted May 1, 2003 I have a problem sending files over IR. I was trying to send a picture (.jpg or .jpeg) to a nokia 7210. I alinged the IR and pressed send. At the top it said sending but on status it said sending cancelled and on the percentage complete it had 18% on the first pic, 24% on the 2nd pic and 14% on the 3rd pic. Anyone had this problem? How did you fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awarner [MVP] Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 i have the old version of smart explorer installed allready i also have managed to install interstellar flames & hexacto tennis with no issues ? You are the third person to have this problem :? Try installing other non-certed apps if you find that they will not install either but non-certed apps you already have on the phone still work, then a hard reset may be in order ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Machineman Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 I don't know if you tried also an other way of unlocking but I got a hint in the software/software unlock spv discussion. I also have problems with uncertified progs. I will see tonight if it works! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest madu Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 So how does ZIPping files work for you guys?? For me it just puts many files in one making it possible to email easily, but no compression whatsoever (o'course not on audio/video files)....
