Comment Keep data away from Dropbox employees (Score 1) 333

One way of doing this is to use Truecrypt to create an encrypted volume and sync that with your Dropbox. But this is actually a headache as it has to upload the entire volume each time you make changes and you have to mount and unmount the volume for that to occur. I found this to be too much of a headache.

After Google searching around, I found the perfect solution. And no, I don't work for the company that puts this out. This lets you create a folder in your Dropbox that encrypts the data inside that folder with your own key and encrypts / decrypts in in real time. Great solution and works perfect! I wanted to share this gem that I found and hope you guys find it useful.

Running on my laptop at 1900 x 1200 resolution through Time Warner Cable Internet, the movies I watch look beautiful and don't stutter or pixelate at full screen. Buffering a movie takes about 10-15 seconds. Netflix streaming scales to the quality of your connection, just like Slingbox. The better your connection, the better it looks. I would guess the closer your connection is to the 384 or so basic DSL, your quality would suffer.
