stuck at work tonight - thanks for the post... :)

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

Windows Vista MCE spits out a beautiful recording, but is in DVR-MS a very unique format. VideoReDo is the editing software I use to edit out commercials and encode the vid into MPEG 2. Right there it is about 2GB with excellent quality - but too big for upload. So one more conversion with WinAvi 9.0m where I can make a dvd, mpeg, avi, wmv, WMV is my favorite - the BEST picyure for the lowest file size, but too many folks here bitch about it. Not sure why. But this is the last time I capitulate to them.
When SG_Atlantis cranks back up, I will be doing them all in WMV because that is what I want them in. I've done my share to please the crowd. I'm done with the avis.

Ghiness (2008-06-07)

Thanks from Canada!

Ghiness (2008-06-07)

I don't understand those bitching about not enough seeders, because according to the swarm speed right now, you have one hell of an upload man.

Drunk Vegan (2008-06-07)

Can anyone confirm if this is a working (file playable and complete) torrent? It was removed from Mininova, possibly for being a fake.
Thanks.

azcumparty (2008-06-07)

I'm seeding, and will continue. Seeding at 100k/sec, down at 20k. WTF people. Share the love!

Drunk Vegan (2008-06-07)

I call BS on this one.
Found identical file on TorrentPortal, which was added to their site 10 hours ago.
1 seed 2897 leechers ZERO COMPLETED.
The show aired for the first time only 5 hours ago.
This is a fake. Don't bother.

I hope not.
Digital Rights Management and Proprietary Format are the issues people have with WMV - the proprietary format is particularly an issue for people running Linux.
BTW, I would recommend using AutoGK for converting into AVI formats using the XVid codex. Good quality, good compression. Or you can try the h264 codex with AutoGK.
Give it a try. It's a little more time consuming, and requires a little more knowledge, but I think you'll like the results.

azcumparty (2008-06-07)

It's not the same files size.
Usually, the UK airs on Tuesday night.
I looked at EVERY torrent for this in the last 48 hours, not realizing that the UK skipped a week. They are all 20MB larger than this file.
I haven't finished downloading this yet, but I have downed edshrinker before, and had good luck.
I have confidence in edshrinker.

Drunk Vegan (2008-06-07)

The TorrentPortal copy is the same file size (329.06) but their "Time added" field seems to be screwed up. When I checked before it said 9 hours 50 minutes now it reads 9 hours 10 minutes.
So possible that it's the real deal.
If so might be a good idea to Superseed it (instruct the BT client to distribute only needed pieces to the swarm) or anyone completing a download will be more or less a matter of random chance.

ffeuerstein (2008-06-07)

go wmv! they can be played on linux without problems.

bobbavet (2008-06-07)

Seeder not showing and 85% avail.
SEED! Goddamit ROFL

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

Vegan - I'm not gonna get into a bunch of name calling, as bad as I'd like to call you a fucking idiot. Look at someone's history before you spout off about fakes. I've never u/led a bad torrent in my life.
And If I wouldn't be the type of person who cleans up dead torrents, you'd see about 4 pages of uploads from me. In fact - look at the fucking torrent I u/led an hour before this one there are over 500 happy seeders on that one right now.
Get your facts straight before you run your mouth. Its assholes like you that make me wonder why I even bother.

azcumparty (2008-06-07)

Don't pay attention to them edshrinker...
The elite GREATLY appreciate your ups, and I will be Seeding until I go to work - have to take the lappy w/me.
92% down, and counting!

Drunk Vegan (2008-06-07)

Sorry edshrinker, the fact that Mininova pulled it (they are usually a very reliable site) and the suspect copy on TorrentPortal, combined with the fact that yours is the only one upped anywhere thus far, made it seem a forgone conclusion.

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

Let me amend that Vegan. 870+ Seeders on the other BSG version I uploaded. I suppose that one was fake too. Dumb ass.

Wrightflyer2 (2008-06-07)

I can't say shit for anyone else, but seriously - thank u for the time and effort...i'll be seeding for next day or soo -- 200k up...

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

I just saw your apology. Now I am the dumb ass. And this is why I don't usually call names - because I end up looking like the ass.
My apologies to Vegan. Thank you for explaination. No problem about the misunderstanding. Withas much shit that gets throw up fake, I understand (OH do I understand) the frustration.
I assure you-my stuff is always legit

Addy2k (2008-06-07)

If you rely on mininova it´s obvious that you are afraid of fakes and things like that. And the fact that this is the only available source doesn´t automaticly mean that it´s fake
btw. thanks edshrinker for your great work and don´t listen to such idiots...

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

Thanks for the kudos guys - I really do appreciate it. I have no problem putting in an hour out of my day to hustle this up for those not fortunate enough to see it tonight.
I just get frustrated when I see that work FAKE, when all some one has to do is look at a history to know if someone is on the up and up.
Thanks again for all the Nice Words. You guys are all very welcome.

Drunk Vegan (2008-06-07)

Don't really rely on Mininova, have just found it to be a good community, as is TPB.
I typically use a program called Torrent Harvester which searches a wide variety of trackers and indexers, and allows me to see all the individual postings of the same torrent.
Helps to identify the source and avoid false seed/peer readings as well as making it more likely to find useful comments.
Apologies again on jumping to conclusions, I am just very cautious. Used to be one of the main mods on TorrentSpy, was subpoenaed in the trial case that resulted in the place getting shut down.

ffeuerstein (2008-06-07)

hmm downloaded with 700 kb / sec, then stuck at 99.8% since 20 minutes, still only 1 seed (4200 peers).

azcumparty (2008-06-07)

AHHHH! Stuck at 99.8%
SEED all those with 100% SEED!
Now this is frustrating... Haha

ffeuerstein (2008-06-07)

nevermind, seeds exploded in 30 seconds to 100 (and no, this was not because of tracker update).
please think about turning on "initial seed" next time.

azcumparty (2008-06-07)

GOT IT!!!
100%
SEEDINING to all those less fortunate than I.
Also, I added and updated my trackers, so hopefully you can all leech off me now.
Haha
Thanks again ed!

edshrinker: "So one more conversion with WinAvi 9.0m ..."
*************************************
Yeah, I've seen that "9" version out there, and was all ready to upgrade to it when I found out that there's no such product - ZJMEDIA is the company that is responsible for WinAvi, and their latest version is 8.0...you can check that out here:

I use that product, and a few others as well. Not exactly sure what that "9" version's all about -
[a cracked & modified version of 8.0 maybe?]
Maybe you can shed some light on it???

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

Hope you're not referring to me ffeuerstein - I was in "Initial seed" from the get go. always am when I am the uploader.

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

Double edge - I have been using WinAVI 9.0 for a couple of months - It looks and works identically to 8.0, just a different color skin. It seems to be a little more reliable...8.0 would crash and burn when you clicked into "advanced"settings sometimes. THis one does too, occasionally, but it seems more stable.
The seriel codes given with TPB d/l worked great - I have used every function it offers and find it to be a quick, reliable tool for video conversion considering it was free.
Hope that helps.

sardaukarz (2008-06-07)

Seed for Gods SAKE! Cylon GOD or Human GOD doesn't matter really!

doubledge (2008-06-07)

OK ed, thanks for the reply. Meanwhile, I found out that WinAvi 9 is a legitimate product, apparently sold as "OEM version". None of the sites that sell it have any info on owner or manufacturer (listed as "other" ??) but it's got to originate from ZJMedia since the name (and skin) are virtually the same as 8.0.
(Hell, who's buying it, anyway? - lol)
rip on!!!!!!!!!

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

peas - you're a good guy, you've d/led alot of stuff from me so I'm not going to get all defensive:
1. HQ does not mean HD
2. I watched this version on my 22inch flatscreen in fullscreen mode and it was for from "blurry". For a 330MB file, it looked damn good to me. It was pretty high quality as far as I was concerned - maybe you have another definition. Looked great to me. Maybe I need to get my eyes checked.

AeronPrometheus (2008-06-07)

Good download, much better than the first one that went up. Good picture and good sound (They even threw in cute little blurb about Adama).
Everyone complaining about the quality is new to torrenting, subscribe to cable or shut up.
I'll be seeding through the night.

DARKTIGER1313 (2008-06-07)

9.5/9.5 A/V Thanks Ripper, worked flawless

JosTeugels (2008-06-07)

Thanks, quality looks great to me. If it weren't for great uploaders like you I wouldn't get to see this in a couple of years. Belgian tv sucks.

zen-TAO (2008-06-07)

Thank U. I just wonder where the subs are. It says at the top they are included, but they are not. Quality is good, nothing better/worse than the other episodes.

doubledge (2008-06-07)

More alternitaves (just in, and not showing up in TPB's search list for Battlestar Galactica yet, although the tracker is

timh66 (2008-06-07)

Thanks ED, I can sate my BSG addiction. Saw a BSG t-shirt yesterday. Adama 08 so say we all.

BriteSpark (2008-06-07)

4 hours downloading, still only at 45%, where are all the seeders???

myles1701d (2008-06-07)

Cheers man, Excelent!!

Wobba (2008-06-07)

Thanks again ed!

saltwaterid (2008-06-07)

THE VIDEO QUALITY IS LOW!!!!!

CSuk (2008-06-07)

Ta Muchly 4 the UL...
...1 more week of BSG folks and then we're screwed for something to watch for 6 months :)

abrahammo58 (2008-06-07)

Subtitles?

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

Not sure if it is too late to get a response to this - maybe someone in the :"know" can help. The LAST thing I want o do is mislead someone on onje of MY torrents.
Where does it say that I listed this as having "Subtitles"? I know "I" didn't say that, and I don't see where that is showing up on my torrent anywhere? Anyone have a clue?

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

Thanks for the response...
No, someone, last page, said this: "z
Thank U. I just wonder where the subs are. It says at the top they are included, but they are not. Quality is good, nothing better/worse than the other episodes."
Not sure where I see what this person sees.

edshrinker (2008-06-07)

AlienTechy:
I'm not a video whiz kid, if you drop back by, could you elaborate? I would LOVE to get rid of the boarders and better the quality (as long as file size doesn't skyrocket). Hell - if I just u/l the video from my MCE, you'd go apeshit...it is BEAUTIFUL. It is also about 3GB.
So you know what I'm up against to upload video from TV:
1. Record on PC from DirectTV wired into computer and played with Windows Media Center Edition.
2. file is dvr-ms (HUGE FIle) I run through VideoReDO to edit and cut out commercials. That software re-encodes the result into MPEG 2, ready to burn to a DVD. But it is about 2GB. So one more conversion is necessary to make it accessible to you all in am efficient manner
3. Convert file from MPEG 2 to AVI with WinAVI 9.0. This Software is reliable and free. Never had complaints before. Course...I never had 4000 + people seeding my file before.
Maybe some of you can help me for next week.
And if interested...I will be doing SG Atlantis when it cranks back up .

TRYER25 (2008-06-09)

Sound quality is crap. Video is ok. Hate watching people talking like old japanese movies.
Thx anyways=Z
