ive tried to use bittorrent a few times but everytime i dl something, including trying to do this, it says it has 35 days left, am i doing something wrong/

You must be using some kind of demo crap program, get something like Azureus.

hmm maybe, im using bittorrent though, is that not a good one? im really new to torrents which is why i havent used them yet, if u can recommend something better id appreciate it, the az one is on the list to get

i have a cable modem so it has no way of having to do with that, i just keep thinking i must have some setting wrong or something lol

ahh...Rockplast concert.
yea...good show good show.

<font color=99CCFF>i can't burn it, but i opened the torrent just to see if what rate i would get & right now its only going at 6 or 7kb... so maybe its just the number of people leeching combined with your cable speed?


i have bittorrent too & have yet to have any problems</font>

bittorrent isnt a program, it's a method of file sharing. Whatever program you're using is crap, get Azureus. I use it all the time.

gotcha, thanks

Unless there is a program that's actually called Bittorrent. But whatever you have sucks if it says you have # of days left so yeah do what I said.

Ok it has been brought to my attention by a girl that there is a program called Bittorrent but it's also a method of file sharing........ and anyway that program is bad if it has a trial expiry setup. :cool:

bitTorrent = software = method of sharing = crap

Azureus = :D :D :D

This torrent = vast improvement over VHS Dusseldorf bootleg!

Thanks for posting Nova!!!! :cheers:

And even Azureus says "... days left" when I start up a torrent. Especially if it's a huge dvd torrent. After a while this changes to a more accurate estimate.

Azureus eats way too much memory up. I use BitTornado for all my needs.

And yeah, for torrents like that I sometimes do get real slow speeds but they pick up and slow down every hour etc due to your connection/ if you are behind a firewall / seeders available / tracker it's hosted on.

Just the way it goes.

I like bittornado best. Simple and very stable.

Oh whoops I assumed that he was talking about some expiration warning that said "days left" but maybe he was talkin about the download ETA.

Yeah it does. I'll try tornado if you guys like it. Azureus takes like 4 minutes to start up for me. :(

i use azureus but i might change if bittornado is that much better...

i don't have any problems with memory though, it loads pretty quick for me.

and just to recap it says you have 35 days left cause it's a huge file and you have a slow connection. it won't take that long but it will take you a few days. it may be worth asking for a b+p instead

hi, could someone tell me if this has the full interview at the end, as i had a divx version where the interview cut out and it was a reallly funny interview cos billy and james were basically just taking the piss out of the interviewer (well james was laughing billy was doing the talking)

I use http://www.utorrent.com/

It uses max 4 mb of ram and the file is less than 100 Kb. Little cpu usage too.

Azareus starts in like 15 seconds for me. Yours might be takign longer if you have it set to check and install updates/plugins upon startup.

I have 768MB of memory on the box it is running on...no problems with memory what-so-ever.

I am not converting! So there... :p :p :p

Azureus starts in about 3 seconds on my computer, it loads SafePeer (PeerGuardian add-on to Azureus) after the program has actually been loaded...
I have a AMD 64 3200+ and 1GB of RAM, so it might be that, Azureus used to load really slow for me, I mean like 30-40 seconds, I think they may have fixed a bug or something.

sounds about right...its running on my 1.8GHz AMD machine right now. What does the SafePeer add-on get you?

BTW -- The sound on this new torrent for this show fucking rocks. A little more color-bleeding than my VHS tape ("Death Mosh"), but the image is sharper as well.

I will have to reply and give more kudos to the guy who re-did the audio. I also noticed his song menu is correct, despite some of the incorrect song titles given on-screen. :D

Forgot how much the outro of Ruby fucking rocks on this show.... :rockon:

Also makes me realize that regardless of whom ends up on bass or second guitar, I am just DYING for Jimmy and Billy to rock-out SP songs again.

preallocation on azureus = crap

bit comet = :D :D :D

Yeah, I never tried Azareus, but went to BitTornado afterusing BitTorrent for about a year. Fuck Braham Cohen (or whatever his name was) and his shitty t-shirts.

I have a fast computer and 1GB of ram so that's not the prob.

And I've had this DVD for a few years, it does have the interview on it.

I talked Tobin through every step of making this thing, so I take full credit. :cool:

Bitcommet has tons of problems. it basically fucks up torrents trying to give you a faster speed as you leech from others.

Thanks -- my software firewall (which sits behind my hardware firewall) does the same thing, including application protection and ip filtering.

Thanks to everyone involved. Good work. I really enjoyed it.

The interview bit makes me laugh. Must be the worst interview ever for that journalist. Hahaha.

By the way, was that Melvoin/his ghost on keyboards?

It was Melvoin. This was before the incident in NYC.

Well I tried Bittornado, and while it started up fast, it was missing some features that I use often with Azureus so even though Azureus takes forever to start up, I've switched back to it. I cleared out the previous downloaded torrent history from Azureus so maybe that will help it start up faster.

Originally posted by Dead

what features?

From what I could tell, it was missing the pre-allocation which cause me a problem because I ran out of space on my drive in the middle of the night and wasted time not being able to download for a few hours. Also, I didn't see a way to make it download certain files in the torrent and not download other files in the torrent. This particular feature was the reason I started using Azureus. Oh yeah it seemed like it opened a separate window for each torrent you were downloading, which was lame.

ok. thanks

You can do this in Bit Tornado. Thats actually the reason I switched to BitTornado from the original client (please note I made this switch a long time ago).

I can't be bothered with the details but there are 2 new SP DVD's also posted on ZOMB. A Rome Show and another show.

I can't be bothered with looking up the details, so give em to me!

Azuerus is the best client to use; you can control everything and it loads fast for me deaddy :P

Don't know if this has been posted here before but it's not on the tracker right now so I thought I'd put it up. Got this a long time ago from Bill Mayer (starlightvideoproductions) and it looks and sounds pretty nice for an audience video. It's from the Hi-8 master so it's about as good as we're going to get I guess.

Yeah!, Azureus is Top. Using the WEB plugin I can even start torrents and see status from work!

BTW, anyone know how to select the files to download before the space allocation?

im pretty sure its not possible. ive looked quickly but i haven't really scrutizined the program for that feature. its something that would be really helpful sometimes when someone has a whole discography up and you only want a couple albums otherwise, it doesn't bother me.

I cleared out all the old downloads from Az so it may load up fast next time I start it. Hopefully.

Thanks for posting about the new torrents.

This show is really good and I recommend the dvd to people here. Usually I'm put off my audience videos but this one is pretty smooth, with hardly any jerking around of the camera. The person is filming from the back of the stadium with a good zoom, and the sound is totally audible, and there's some really funny moments like when the guy from the Frogs starts chasing D'arcy and she tries to run away.

Thanks for the recommendation, this was my first SP show and I have a shitty vcd of it, I'll grab the DVD if I can free enough space... hmm guess I could do with a little less anal porn.

I bought a second harddrive for my anal porn needs

I already have 4 and a 5th external one. Actually I think I got a few 200GB ones to replace some older ones so I have just 3 internal now. But anyway...

Well I found enough anal porn to delete and I downloaded the Toronto show, my first SP show ever! It totally rules. Now I can delete the shitty VCD copy I have lying around somewhere. Thank you Internet! :love:

The sound rules.
