Today, I was searching for the Internet Speed Enhancer to increase Internet Speed. And I still remember that I have written about unblocka about a year ago. It was good enough for me at that time so I tried to use it again during the desktop cleaning in the afternoon.
Well I noticed their http://www.unblocka.com website is down. So I searched Google and downloaded it from the Internet. But then this dialog shows up saying that ‘UnBlocka has timed out download a new version from www.unblocka.com Tuning has been disabled’.

Then on the main window, the ‘Tune System’ button was disabled and I was not able to modify system! I really felt bad, sorry for the perfectly good software going down into the trash can. I don’t understand why the developer had to make the button disabled when his site is down. He shouldn’t have done that.
Any way, I decided to stick with unblocka instead of searching Internet for another similar software by using AutoHotKey. I just came up with a AutoHotKey executable that will enable the ‘Tune System’ Button. Just copy my ‘enable_unblocka.exe’ into the same folder where ‘unblocka.exe’ is. Then just run it.
See my script in action below.
Enjoy!
Download enable_unblocka.exe
I just released v1.7 of Hana Flv Player WP plugin. The latest version has two improvements. One is to handle more advanced options of the FlowPlayer and FLV Player. (Unfortunately OS FLV does not have enough options to implement) The other is for showing FLV movie in the template theme files outside of the blog article by using a new method.
More options for the players

Inserting some javascript or Html codes in the middle of an article is not an easy task. It’s hard to copy and paste bunch of codes into the article whenever you write an article. Sometimes, the code breaks and doesn’t work as intended because WordPress encodes HTML entities.
So I decided to come up with the plugin that will help me insert that AdSense or Paypal Donation code into the middle of article.

If you want to provide streaming video service (For example, seeking any position in the video file) using Flash video, you need to embed Metadata in your flv data file.
The most well-known free tool is ‘flvtool2′ which was created by Norman Timmler (http://www.inlet-media.de/flvtool2) .
It’s pretty easy to use. You just have to type the command with -U option 'flvtool2 -U sample.flv' in the Windows command console.

However, if you have multiple FLV files to work on, this can be rather boring repetitive work. Yes, you may create a batch file and execute them all at once, but still the task requires too much manual typing.
So I decided to create a simple front GUI frontend to embed Metadata for the multiple flv data with few clicks. And, here is my SarahFlvtool2. It is a Windows GUI helper for flvtool2.

As part of ongoing personal project for creating and embedding Flash Video in my Wordpress, I have decided to create a Wordpress plugin to help me writing embed tags inside the articles. If you are interested on my previous quests, check out below links.
Change Log
- v 1.7: Adding additional attributes for the players more advanced options. Also added a method to show FLV movie within the theme template files (such as sidebar.php)
- v 1.5: Adding FLV Player Maxi
- v 1.1: Lots of debuging.
- v 1.0: Initial Release with OS FLV (GPL) , FlowPlayer (GPL) flv players
Now you can easily embed the FLV Flash videos in your WordPress Blog. I have packaged the two GPL FLV Flash player, OS FLV and FlowPlayer. So you can use them freely without worries even for the commercial purpose unlike the JW player - If you have AdSense or display ads showing , you should purchase the player according to its website.
