It's driving me crazy!!!

I have no idea if I've done everything right.

It looks like it's doing what it's doing - but very, very slowly. However, some people have received over 90% whilst others are still at 0%. What am I doing wrong? Is there anybody technically-minded out there whom could help?

ouch that hurt!

It said 'downloading' for me, but it wasn't doing too much.

I'm not hip to the whole bit torrent thing so I don't really know what happening.

It was the thought that counts though.

I've got it working - I think.

It's 02:45 a.m. in England and I need to sleep soon, but I swear that it's working now if you all want to try again. It was less than 1 kb/s but now it's getting towards 30 kb/s and counting.

If Bitcomet doesn't work for you, try installing Shareaza and clicking on the erm... things again.

well i'm still @ 0% but this pc is a POS...so i think i'll keep the pc on over night tonight and let it do its thing
then burn them on2 cd and delete them off my harddrive


again thanks

I think it's working now
It says 60kB/s

:crossfingers:

Alright, that's fab!!!

I should add some technical information here...

The "things" have been configured especially for viewing on a regular television. In other words, on a DVD Player that can play those kinds of things. If you try to watch the things on a portable device or your computer, they might be a bit jerky, dependant on your processor's speed.

Check out this page to see a list of compliant DVD Players: http://www.videohelp.com/...me&hits=25

The sound is Dolby AC3 - not mp3. If you're getting a perfect picture when viewing on your computer, but no sound, you'll need to install an AC3 codec. Here's a free one: http://prdownloads.source...e?download

Oh... another thing... If viewing on your television, please be aware that the things are NTSC - not PAL. Most DVD Players will automatically convert an NTSC signal to Quasi-PAL, for viewing on a PAL television. If you're seeing a grey picture though, it'll be because you're looking at an NTSC signal on a PAL television. Try looking at your DVD Player's menu to see if there's an option for auto-switching to NTSC. If there is, make it output solely to PAL and it should display a Quasi-PAL signal.

I'm dying to know if anybody's got the things yet.

I'm going to try again in a minute.

Mine is still loading. Slowly, but surely.

I am around 9% on both.

LoL

I can't WAIT!

I'm going to re-seed the things now. I had to close it down whilst I did my internet banking. Today is pay-day and I was paying bills and stuff.

If anybody has downloaded it, leave the program open for an hour or two afterwards so that others can... um... participate.

I'm working today and heading straight outta town after. So I won't know till Sunday night.

But I'll let you know then.

Yeah, it'll probably take until then anyway!

hey what's going on?

Oops. I forgot about you, young Milton.

Check your Org Notes in a minute.

have not had a chance to start yet, what with the invasion going on

aha! so i'm not the only one who got the ORTG note i'll pass but it was really nice of you to offer Justin1972UK.

say, do you really think it's wise to ORGnote a bunch of people on this website offering what appear to be bootlegs of prince's early performances? i mean, doesn't the site kind of forbid that? or is that performance in the public domain somehow

i dunno.

I have no idea what you're talking about. They're home movies!

Justin1972UK said:

gotcha! righto!

good morning
i had it on all night and i'm @ 11.2% for one and 13% for the other
but i'll be leaving to go home in a few hours...

i can pause them right?

SammiJ said:

Good morning!

Yep - you can pause them.

Justin1972UK said:

sweet
that'll be the last thing i do before i leave to ensure they had every possible minute to keep goin lol


thanks again

I tried them again last night and they were working!

Started at only around 5 or 6 KBs a second but by the time I went to bed they were downloading at between 20 and 30. I'll do more again later and should be able to finish downloading tomorrow morning if I leave it overnight.

Thanks again Justin.

p.s. and I'll leave the program open after I finish for a while.
