A new version of my original Airplay via Beamer Alfred extension converted to a workflow for the recently released Alfred 2.

Functionally this still works the exactly same way as the old extensions, so for a more detailed overview, checkout the original blog post.

This Alfred extension changes your Wi-Fi DNS settings to the Tunlr servers and back again.

The script naïvely assumes that you are using a Wi-Fi network and that you normally don’t have any DNS servers manually set.

Tunlr lets you stream content from sites like Netflix, Hulu, MTV, CBS, ABC, Pandora and more to your Mac or PC. Want to watch Netflix or HuluPlus on your iPad, AppleTV or XBox 360 even though you’re not in the U.S.? Tunlr lets you do this.

Do you have duplicate items under the Finder Open With menu? If so, repairing the Launch Services register usually helps, you can do this by executing the command below (in Terminal), or by using my Repair LaunchServices Alfred extension.

This simple Alfred extension is primarily meant to be used as a file action. It uses Beamer to play the given file over AirPlay (for example to an Apple TV).

The number of pens is too damn high

Seriously.

If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family Anatidae on our hands.
