For those who are annoyed by the OCR technique used by Hold'em Manager... Try RUSHud: It's fast and accurate since it does not use text recognition techniques.

Currently it's in BETA/Trial phase and will be released in a few days.

anyone tried this out?

Does it use scraping techniques to get the players names? Does it hook into the API of FTP in anyway shape or form? Does it comply with FTP's T&C with 3rd party software?

Just try it and you will see this actually works.

No, RUSHud is not using an API hooking technique. This is quite hard to do as Full Tilt does not use standard Windows API but it's own API (QT4 library for graphics/text actually).
The actual method remains a trademark secret for obvious reasons.

I think the following text from FTP's T&C best describes RUSHud:

Downloaded and didn't work for me...

Loaded it up with HEM and FTP running, then it hung. Loaded it up again and now it keeps saying Trial Over in the Reg Key box...

Do you see a Machine ID in the registration box?
E-mail me this code to rushudd@gmail.com (or via Skype: rushudd@gmail.com) and you will receive a free registration key.
But only if you are willing to find out what the problem is. We might need to use TeamViewer for this.

Seems to work great for me!

Isn't this commercial software?

Yeah, but we've been only moving threads which have gained some "traction" in the top-level forum first rather than just moving in every new thread about software / scripts (as soon as several people show interest and the thread gets going it'll be moved though).

this looks really cool

how much will it cost?

the only version available currently is limited to 100 hands? is that correct?

Would playing rush and normal tables and the same time be a problem please?

Is it xp compatible?

I tried using the program today but had no luck in getting it to work. It gives me the same error each time. I also tried toggling the 'Toggle Limit' button. Any idea how to fix this so I can try it out?

Waiting for Holdem Manager client..
Holdem Manager found
Postgres Config found
Error connecting to PostGres:
missing "=" after "Database" in connection info string

Succesfully Stopped RUSHud

Am I right in saying that this software is only compatible with one client version of FTP? i.e won't support the next release or beta builds
