uTFilterManager - RSS filter manager for uTorrent

uTFilterManager is an open source, standalone application that works in conjunction with uTorrent and allows setting up of pre-configured RSS feed filters and managing the same with ease.

uTorrent has an integrated RSS downloader that works similar to uTFilterManager. However, setting up a filter in uTorrent requires a fair bit of knowhow that might be daunting for novice users. There are filters, wildcards, episodes, and not to mention the cryptic parameters one has to set to tell the downloader to avoid downloading certain items.

uTFilterManager makes all this easier, thanks to its predefined profiles for TV, HD and DVDRip. Just choose the desired profile from the drop down list, and the ‘NOT’ settings are automatically populated. Users still have the option to edit filters and other fields for the filter.

The basic steps involved to get uTFilterManager working are these:

Enter the Name and Filter in uTFilterManager, but leave the Save in option blank to automatically set to the default directory uTorrent uses. Now click on the “Add Filter” button at the bottom.

The Current Filters tab will display the filters you applied.

Finally, click on the File menu and select Save. Make sure uTorrent is NOT running when you save it.

This will overwrite the rss.dat file into uTorrent’s working directory. When you restart uTorrent you will find these changes reflected in uTorrent’s RSS downloader.

uTFilterManager runs on all versions of Windows but requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.

How to Schedule Changes to Your Facebook Page Cover Photo

Facebook’s current layout, the so called Timeline, features a prominent, large cover photo that some people are using in a lot of different creative ways. Timeline is also available for Facebook Pages that people can use to promote their website or business or event. Although you can change the cover photo as often as you like, it’s meant to be static – something which you design and leave it for at least a few weeks or months like a redesigned website. However, there are times when you may want to change the cover photo frequently and periodically to match event dates or some special promotion that you are running or plan to run. So, here is how you can do that.
