this cpu problem is known and only occurs on leopard for some strange reason. I fixed it for the next release. Could you try the latest development version and see if that helps.

Ted seems to idle at 30% CPU usage on my MacBook running Leopard. That’s with no episode checks going on. Restarting the app doesn’t help.

I don't know what people are smokin'. This app is way better than TV Shows imo. I used TV Shows for a long time before I found this app and I always had trouble finding the shows I wanted. ted is so much better at finding shows and downloading them as soon as t hey become available. Give it a chance and you will see how much better it works than TV Shows.

This app rocks! Don't give up on it. I had problems at first adding a custom show. Use the forums to get help. It works and it's the best episode torrent downloader available.

ted has built-in information about all the tv shows, gives feedback about what is happening while he is searching for new episodes, shows why no episodes are found and supports multiple torrent websites. All things that TVShows does not have.

Why was purcell's comment penalised with negative ratings? You can't deny TVShows is simpler and better, and also unobstrusive, Dock and menubar-wise.

Check out TVShows instead. Nicer interface, works well.

Could have an option to not show it in the dock and only in the menubar ...
But still it's a great app when it comes to functionality , great work!

updated the mac installer, had errors for fresh installs. if you get a java ouf of memory error when starting ted, please download ted again. sorry :)

Ugly as hell, just like all those cross-platform Java apps...but it gets the job done...
