Re: slow speeds of transfer
it must be there site mate if it too much trouble just dont download anything ;)
Re: slow speeds of transfer
Any other sites we could possibly use?
All that comes to mind is yousendit- but they only allow I think 3 downloads per file. That won't cut it.
Unless of course you use yousendit and simultaneously upload 3 or 4 copies of it, and provide all the links. If one doesn't work, try the next one. It would download much faster.
Re: slow speeds of transfer
ok guys
the programme we are using is hilariousely slow
there are other programmes, also free that will provide much quicker upload/download rates, also free
if anyone fancies giving it a go, youll cut your download times by around 10 times!

Yeah i have broadband........quite fast broadband and it told me it would take 91 hours to download hatton/tszyu...........i cancelled it. It is a great idea but i think we need to find another site.

this only allows 50 meg files got anymore?
Re: slow speeds of transfer
eeek, i dont think so
i just so want to watch some of the good fights, but i dont have the time to download them
Re: slow speeds of transfer
I still think you can upload one video 2 or 3 times simultaneously using yousendit.com, and then post the link for each one. It allows I think 3 downloads per each upload so if you upload it several times in different windows, all at once and give all the links, people can just click the first one. If that one has been used too much, try the second link provided. And the download is much faster.
Do you understand? Do you think it's any good?
Re: slow speeds of transfer
i actually have no idea what your on about man!
do you want me to download 3 videos at once?
Re: slow speeds of transfer
Yousendit.com is sort of similar to megaupload, but it does generate better download speeds and allows for larger files to be tranferred.
The problem is they have a limit. For every file uploaded only 3 downloads are permitted, and then the link goes dead.
The thought was that when you upload a video, just open up the site several times at once, in different windows. Start uploading the same video into each window simultaneously. Then, when they're all done, provide each link on the forum. Whoever wants to download the file can download off any of the links. If one has already been used up the maximum of three times, just try a different one of the links.
Clearer?
Re: slow speeds of transfer
ok that makes sense.
however i dont have any videos to upload, i only want to retrieve the hatton tsyzu fight, under 40 hours!
Re: slow speeds of transfer
Whilst I understand the annoyance Alex it is a price worth paying, for instance if someone had not seen Corrales Vs Castillo, or Hatton Tszyu I think waiting a couple of days to download it isnt too big an ask, this thread has been running two days, you could have had Hatton Tszyu downloaded in that time ;)
Re: slow speeds of transfer
ive havent seen either of those fights!
is Corrales Vs Castillo availabe to download on the forum?
my only concern is
1: i have to pay my part of the electricity bill in my house, and leaving the computer on for 2 days isnt gonna help
2: will my computer overheat? im gonna have to leave it on for 40 hours, will it be ok with that?
Re: slow speeds of transfer
Fair enough with the electricity bill, but if you think about it a little more electricity once a month or so for the big fights (if no one else does it I will upload Corrales Castillo as soon as I have my PC back for you) isnt going to kill you.
Your computer will survive the night ;) my PC is never turned off.
Ive just downloaded Tyson McBride in about an hour ;)
