ShareMouse – Use One Mouse & One Keyboard Across Multiple Computers

Better even than a multiple monitor set-up, is the multiple computer set-up. A familiar phenomenon for the geek with a laptop for on the go and a desktop computer at home or at work. Instead of splitting your computing power over several displays, you’re putting several disjunct systems in parallel.
Then again, it’s almost comical how you have to juggle your computer mice and keyboards. An awkward factor that only increases with the number of devices on your desk. The most obvious way out would be to use KVM switch; a hardware device that connects one set of input devices to multiple computers. Better yet would be to use a software KVM solution, like ShareMouse.

 

ShareMouse (Mac + Windows)

ShareMouse does exactly what you would expect from a KVM switch, and more. After installing the application on two computers (or more, after purchasing a license), ShareMouse will automatically spot other computers running ShareMouse on the same network and connect with them. ShareMouse is available for Mac OS X and Windows computers, and will work in both directions.
ShareMouse works very similar to Synergy, an application we reviewed on MakeUseOf in the past, but is much easier to get up and running.

When your mouse hits the edge of your display, it will jump over to the display of the other computer. You can use either keyboard to type on whatever computer where the mouse is currently located. With ShareMouse, you can use one keyboard and one mouse to control all devices on your desk, or you can use the computer you’re currently working on to pull up information on any of the other computers.

Responsiveness

The main concern for KVM software is the overal responsiveness of the mouse and keyboard while you’re working on a different computer. In this aspect, ShareMouse has hit a home run. Mouse movement is fluid, and there’s no noticeable keyboard delay. Even while using your average Wi-Fi to connect both computers, you could be fooled into thinking you were using the primary mouse and keyboard.

Clipboard & File Sharing

On top of sharing your mouse and keyboard, ShareMouse will also share your files across computers using drag-and-drop file sharing and clipboard sharing.
Drag and drop lets you select a files on one computer, and drag it over to another computer. While this worked as advertised on my Windows set-up, it didn’t on my Mac OS X set-up. You shouldn’t expect to rely on these features; there’s no harm in trying, but performance clearly depends on your computer set-up. Rather, you could use Dropbox or a simple LAN connection to share your files across computers.

When enabled, ShareMouse will also try to keep your clipboard contents in sync. Of course you shouldn’t expect to copy a multiple gigabyte file, but text, image clippings and smaller files are fair game. Again, sharing files worked haphazardly between Mac OS X Leopard and Mac OS X Lion. Sharing text clippings on the other hand, worked like a charm.
In conclusion, ShareMouse works great to share your mouse and keyboard; easy to set up and incredibly responsive. However, there are better and more reliable ways to share files locally.

Capture & Save Any Type Of Streaming Content Using Media Sniffer [Windows]

When we find something we enjoy on the Internet, we often want to hoard it for ourselves and keep it forever (be it legal or not). The most frequent and obvious of this type of behavior is when people are begging to know how to save YouTube videos to their hard drive. You’ve probably done that once or twice by now through means of browser extension or a third-party website.
Using those sort of services is completely fine, but you’ll eventually run into a snag. There are a lot of websites that support YouTube’s format and it makes the downloading of files extremely easy. Then there are other video and information networks that don’t allow you any practical way to snatch what you want. For these types of websites, I recommend Media Sniffer.
Media Sniffer sniffs your traffic at the network level, ensuring that any piece of media you experience (since downloaded and cached) show up as available for keeps. You’ll need to install WinPcap to allow Media Sniffer to work properly.


It’s important to know which network interface to sniff and analyze. Generally, the interface that displays your local IP address is the right pick. At this Preferences window, you can also determine exactly what network traffic is being captured. If you want just movies, you can limit those separate file extensions. If you want just zipped archives, that’s fine also. Port 80 is the default port for HTTP traffic.

More than just the narrowing of filetypes, you’re also able to determine what specific URLs the media can be found from, and under what user agent (or browser). That means you can be browsing casually using Chrome, and sniffing using Firefox.



Once you’re comfortable with how you’ve got it configured, take it for a spin. If movies are being whitelisted in your settings, go sit through a few seconds of a YouTube video. You should then see something like the following:


From there, you can copy the URL to directly access the file. Keep in mind that certain websites (like, as we’ll see in this failure of an example, YouTube) use a CDN with expiring keys and other forms of encryption and protection. Pasting the URL into your browser will cause nothing more than an empty video object to show up. This does not happen very often and you’ll only notice it as a problem with huge media networks such as YouTube. The smaller fish are easier to pick off.


I think it’s nice to keep Media Sniffer up (or docked in the system tray) when browsing around online, allowing it to catch everything that you may eventually want to save and keep. It’s a very small application that doesn’t take up many resources at all.
We’re able to make a much better example out of Twitvid, a smaller video-hosting website. Go to Twitvid, start capturing, and play any video. You’ll instantly notice it pop up in the captured URLs.


Again, just right click, copy, and paste into your browser. It’ll take you to the raw MP4 file. Depending on what browser plugins you have installed, you can either play it through your browser, or it’ll automatically prompt to save. If it plays in the browser, just go to File and you can save it from there.




Anything that comes through your browser makes it through the network, and is therefore open to manipulation through Media Sniffer. It doesn’t matter if it’s streaming audio, video, Flash content, etc. It’s as simple as starting Media Sniffer up, allowing the media to play, and then copy/pasting the parsed URL into your browser and hoping that the raw content isn’t obfuscated in some crazy way that won’t allow you to save it. Keep your fingers crossed.
