You people are unbelievable!

This program and its staff has made my computing a dream. Thank you so much. Happy new year 2020! :smile:

Today a colleague called me for help with renaming files with an underscore in them. I quickly showed my colleague the renaming feature of Opus. It blew him away. He was very impressed; I am sure he will buy the program. The files were all video files so he through a pun (so he thought) at me that next, he would like to convert the *.mkv and *.ts files into *.mp4. I then showed him the button I have in my Opus config that automates converting a selected file just like so via FFMPEG. He told me this would change his life. I explained to him that this is just routine (light) work for Opus. He is thrilled.

Opus helps me as a programmer, database creator, a backup specialist, and all the other things I do with computers. What I do is handle contracts to make companies more automated and efficient. I like to share my web development and projects. I even have some Opus scripts like one for backup via Acronis Backup I hope to share with the community when I find the time. As for my other work for private companies, they tend to have strict disclosure rules about sharing or showing projects. However, here is something I can share. It is a script I wrote for Adobe Premiere.

I am late for a trip. I am doing last minute stuff. Stuff like look for files I do not want to forget for work. Moving things from my desktop and Mac to my laptop via my network. I also moving music to my Android phone. I am sitting here laughing about how difficult this could be if I did not have Directory Opus. Laughing... this program its staff and community are the BOMB!

I was about to make a post similar to this one. Thank you for Directory Opus! I had this thought recently about how most software is terrible, doesn't work, and exists as a "necessary evil," but Directory Opus is very sensibly designed, performant, richly featured, and easy enough to get a lot out of it without investing too much time learning the ins and outs.

This software really has saved me a lot of time and "just werks." Thanks devs

Dopus is truly the only reason I keep an installation of Windows floating around. I'm not hopeful, but a Linux version would make me ecstatic!

Directory Opus is literally the only reason I'm still using Windows for both work and casual use. There simply is no other file manager on any operating system that comes even half as far when it comes to features and usability.

Microsoft is a fool for not subsidizing GP Software. But in one way I'm glad they haven't noticed: they might get the idea into their head to buy the company and would of course end up screwing everything up.

Hello,

I would like to thank the Directory Opus Team for this incredible software.
The forums are full of requests (me included) to improve even more, and I just want to say:

THANK YOU, DIRECTORY OPUS TEAM!!! I LOVE THIS PROGRAM. :smiley: :+1: :+1:

When I moved to Mac, I went crazy after a few days because DOpus was gone and went back to my old Windows Laptop, using the Mac only for Browsing. When Parallels for Apple Silicon came out, I immediately installed DOpus on the MacBook and it is computer heaven now.

I wished this thread were made sticky so there is a place where people can express their thanks....

I'm pretty new to the dopus game, but not new to software, fora, and people giving support.

Dopus is fantastic.
I'm not sure why I never took a look at it before. (maybe because in a previous life I was an Atari ST guy, not a C64 one? :wink:

And specifically, guys like Leo are an absolute treasure.
Prompt responses, to the point, no judgements, no lecturing.
Just solid replies and good information.
I do hope this guy is rewarded properly.

I agree, DO is amazing. I bought it in a humble bundle quite a while ago and after a youtube video from ThioJoe about the stuff you can do with it.. i installed it and upgraded to Pro and started using it few days ago.
What a wonderful piece of software !

Thio Joe's video led me to Opus. I bought two Pro licenses.

So... I extended the trial mode for all it's reach until the ridiculous amount of trial expired.
"Once you go black, you never go back"... same thing happened... I can not go back to file exploDer.

DOpus FTW!!! ^___^
