Did you sign up to UK Nova or couchtracker? The latter worked, the former says the site is "not public" (is not accepting new users).

I get a LOT of music-related video from UK/Eire because I have friends who know I live for the stuff (all sorts of programmes like Soccer AM, TOTP, Wossy, you name it) my U/L speed sucks wind, but I can do it.

Bob -- I take it that such a site "advertises" that you have a bit torrent available -- that is, it doesn't store what you upload, therefore your machine (and bandwidth) must be available for others to stream it down.

couch tracker - would love to get soccer am ...

Without reading further down....yeah I want to know as well.

Ok, I've read further down....we've got UK Nova, love it, love it! But, still can't figure out how to play it on our big telly!

Mind I don't get every episode.... I have a limited supply of technogeek male friends willing to go to the immense bother of capturing / converting and uploading the shows to me. Plus I tend to only get the bits that I'd be interested in getting, not the entire show, as that would be ouchy!

At some point I might get a video capture card (used to have one) and start capturing from videotape, but I don't have a PAL player I'd guess you'd just need a PAL player to capture to computer -- it wouldn't also have to convert to NTSC.

All my geek friends Over There are asleep at the mo so can't ask but will do so when I get a chance.

snowbunny

I'll try to ask technogeek friends tomorrow .... when did you get your UK Nova account?

I have Roxio software for my DVD burner. I just save the EE from Nova. Drag and click into the Roxio icon and it starts up a prog called DVD builder. It's dead easy, and if I can do it, anyone can.

We've had it for months.

Get TMPGEnc Xpress from www.pegasys-inc.com/en/download/te3xp.html

You will also need software to burn DVD's i.e. Nero.

I don't know why my question mark is showing as three dots ... after php replace the dots with one question mark and the link should work.

Why doesn't my question mark work???

Guelder Rose

It works like that ... but doesn't work when used in the link???

AmerLisa

Thanks for the information! After showing my husband Sibsie's response last night he informed me that he has the Nero software, just hasn't got around to installing it. "Why is that dear?" I asked. "Well I just don't feel like it." Arrrrrrrrgggggggggghhhhhhhh!!!!

He might get around to it eventually....more nagging required I think.

depends on your system, need to sort out your NAT's, port forwarding etc, and also, more seeders, fast speeds, I've gotten 350kb/s off of ET at best, but people have gotten lot faster...

Bob

the file says that you are seeding/leeching via the tracker, which is how other people get the file, the tracker says who has what, and needs what etc, to spread the file around..

for information on HOW to play these files DIRECT to your PC see www.xbox-scene.com

basics - buy a hacked xbox, get XB Media Centre and network it all to your pc
eh voila - a fully networked media centra

Bob

errr....could just get video out from the puter and wire that into the tele in....

though it was cheaper gettin' an mpeg 4 player
