KMSC #10: TubeDS

This 10th entry was created by Moro
Here is his description:


It’s an stand-alone ( No internet browser ) app to search, download and play videos from youtube ( and if the coder wants, maybe from a lot of other similar webs ). It’s made of two parts :
Part 1: Video Search
Type using the keyboard on the bottom screen then press the GO button ( enter key… ) and results appear on the top screen. The top screens shows the essential info ( only text ) : Title, Duration, and 4 line description. You can scroll the page and select the videos with the d-pad ( i think it’s not necessary to swap screens… ) and the A-button. At the bottom of the page it’s the “results 1-20 of 7390” message and the page index. If you choose Download Only, the video will be downloaded ( flv file ) in a folder of your choice ( maybe new dialog or just set a directory in a settings file.. ) and you can open it after ( see part 2 ). If you choose Download & play the video will play while streaming, the most usual way…

Part 2: FLV player
The video will be showing at the top screen ( full screen ) and the controls are on the bottom screen. This part will be the first to appear on this app; from here you can open an flv file or you can search for it. The video will play automaticly ( you can play/pause with the start button ), if you’ve chosen download and play, the video will be streaming. If you choose save as… the video will be saved permanently in a folder, if you don’t do anything, any video you’ve seen will be stored in a cache folder ( so you don’t need to download it the next time you watch it ) this folder can be emptied touching the empty cache button.

KMSC #9: DSnatcher

This 9th entry was created by Moro
Here is his description:


Well, this is quite obvious, this is a port of the segaCD ( megaCD ) version of Snatcher, that uses the double screen and the stylus to play in a comfortable “Phoenix Wright” style.
It can be played with the stylus and with d-pad and buttons. The shooting scenes need to be played with the stylus and it would be great if they would be faster and harder than the original ( you can shoot really tapping with the stylus ) ; in the shooting scenes the top screens will show the life markers or any HUD that is present… It could be released with the acts in different nds files, one after another ( like a tv serial… ).

KMSC #8: Band-In-A-DS

This 8th entry was created by Moro
Here is his description:


This is a lightweight port of the windows app “Band-In-A-Box” which is a great and extremely useful app for musicians like me, it let’s you play with your computer ( now your DS! ) like if it was with a full band. It doesn’t need to have all the features of the original, but it will nice if it had the most important :

– You can create the armonical structure ( place the chords in the right measures… ).
– You can hear it, in different styles ( at least 10, like blues, rock, metal, bossa nova, jazz … ).
– You can select the instruments that will be playing with you ( touch the pink buttons to mute one of the instruments ).
– You can open midi files an band-in-a-box songs, and you can save the new songs you’ve just made.

The app works like Nitrotracker, you need to swap the screens to change between the arranger and the sounds. You can select measure ( and it’s two halfs ) with the d-pad ( or swapping screens ) and fill in the right chord with the “chord keyboard”. It could be nice that an app like band-in-a-box goes portable, it will let you play and practice anywhere in a better and more useful way than playing alone.
