Friends: Seasons 1 - 5 (SaM)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 Only Here Due to Popular Demand!!!! The Torrent of a LifeTime ----------------------------------- I have been looking for this for ages, and now it is finally here!!! I have asked tons of people for it, but none have ever decided to share...But i managed to make my way through. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As a token of my appreciation to the PirateBay, S.a.M Presents FRIENDS Seasons 1->10. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These folder contains 10 Folders; a season per folder. They have been authored into one DVD-R (NOT 4.7GB, but 8.5GB which is DL). So if you want to burn this to dvds like i have, you will need to buy yourself 10 Double Layer DVD's. These are all authored disks! So for example: all season 1 episodes where made to fit into one DVD-R DL hence the quality was a bit depreciated. However, i have burned these to DVD-R DL and watched them on TV, looks just A-OK!!! Audio: ALL English, no other option! Subs: English. Some episodes will also have french and spanish as well. SOME!! s1: 8.3GB s2: 8.2GB s3: 8.2GB s4: 8.0GB s5: 6.8GB --------------- Total: 37.61 GB This isnt fun to upload(but i will maintain the effort) and it wasnt fun to make, lets see some thank you notes down here.... Again, thank you Piratebay; This one goes out to all of you!! Also a bigger dedication to the gurL; her witiwness!!! ;) -----S.a.M----- PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 PART 1 of 2 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

swy000 (2006-02-05)

Ok guys, let me know if this works.... this is the first part....

swy000 (2006-02-05)

well, im observing and one person is download..however, that person doesnt wanna take the time to write that it sems to be working fine..im thinking of banning him :P....

swy000 (2006-02-05)

xc0d3: it will be up here for a while..no sweat... get an extra HD... part 2 is coming up soon...:)

Cinsesco (2006-02-05)

Nice upload swy000, very nice:D

kawasakikr1 (2006-02-05)

Awesome upload!!
My wife will be over the moon.

Bzerker (2006-02-05)

Swedish subs anyone??

swy000 (2006-02-05)

Bzerker: sorry, there are no swedish subs...
Another note: i will put up the second part once a substantial part of this has been gone around...

UnchosenOne (2006-02-05)

OMG! This is something, really.
I'll, however, download 1st season first and burn, to see if it works for me...

donedo (2006-02-05)

Ooh man I have to clean my harddrive tonight to get some free space

MortenCB (2006-02-05)

Thanks a bunch for this.
Please wait with part 2 until we have managed to get this one (and possibly make room for another ~40GB :) ).

swy000 (2006-02-05)

UnchosenOne: good idea... give it a shot :) come back if you like what ive done..personal editing and it took me a hell of alot to try and fit all episode into one DL DVD.but i tried to maintain quality!
donedo: you do that :P
MortenCB: np.. you got my word.. i will make sure this is available to you and everyone else;part 2 as well..sorry about my personal upload speed though... good thing is i never turn of my comp...
i will follow up my seed... trust me ;)
swy000

speedcop (2006-02-06)

Oh dudes, it will probably take three months to get this fantastic package with the meager upload speeds you leechers are giving.. :----(
If all 40 leechers are uploading almost nothing, then *all* 40 leechers will need to get *all* the data from the one single seeder, and it will take 40 times as long for every one to get the whole package! Be smart guys: the more you upload, the faster you will get everything home!!!

swy000 (2006-02-06)

speedcop: i am the one with the capped upload although im the one offering this. my max upload is 30k and min is 20k. It took my 1 day to upload 1.63GB, so it will be 23 days before i get a full upload! The good part is however, everyone will get the WHOLE piece at the same time cause the percentages are too close.. everyone is increasing at the same time... sorry about that..

darkace (2006-02-06)

All hail to swy000!
I will get a lot of bouns points at home delivering this to my girlfriend (sorry I can't let you in on those though)

swy000 (2006-02-07)

speedcop: swtiched over to superseed now, however, for the "Share Ratio" option, should it be 1:1 or 1:2(0.5) ???? and why?

swy000 (2006-02-07)

good news: upload now has increased to 34K... :D but only for about 14 hours a day...then back down to 25 :(..

MortenCB (2006-02-11)

I hope you didn't leave us. There are currently no seeders, and I am very happy if I can get all of this :)

swy000 (2006-02-12)

speedcop: thank you for the clarification speedcop.
Got some more good news for everyone: I will be double-seeding this every once in a while! How?
Im gonna be taking season 1-5 on laptop to my Univ where upload is HIGH!! i will try to do this as often as possible. I am putting the data on the laptop as i type and azureus as well :)....
hope this helps... :)
PS: hpy bday gurL ;)

swy000 (2006-02-14)

ok, the only speed im getting in unviersity is 9K or less.. however if i upload on HTTP, i get aroubd 160K per sec... i have no idea why.....

swy000 (2006-02-14)

ok i tried again...but this time with microtorrent..i hit 100K per sec a few times.. i was a huge fan of azureus but microtorrent gave better results...sorry azureus!

Grake (2006-02-18)

Registered here just to write my comments for this upload :D
Thanks a lot for this upload man. Very much appereciate it.

swy000 (2006-02-18)

Grake: your more than welcome.. stay tuned for the second part... im hoping that when people finish this, they will seed it for others, so i can put up seasons 6-10... enjoy!!

Totoro (2006-02-18)

Thanx!!!!!

Mikkeline (2006-02-18)

Okay - this is a huge torrent but I just finished the First Season 1 DVD and I regreat to say that the quality is not good. For those of you who do not care about that it is a bargain of course... Maybe someone could put up a sample ??

swy000 (2006-02-19)

Mikkeline: i fit 24 episodes into 1 dvd, and i said in the note that it has been a bit depreciated... its really not that bad (well i guess thats what i thought)..., i watched it on ~30inch at home and it looks fine :s.. but i guess its what i thought... everyone should test the first season in case they dont like it i guess..... thnx for the feedback mikkeline...

sarusani (2006-02-22)

I'm with swy000. The Quality is not excelent but it's good enough. It's a TV Serie and not a HQ blockbuster movie! :-)

Mikkeline (2006-02-22)

swy000 : You are right of course and you have done a hell of a job !!! It's just that I have half of the seasons as DVDr with subs as put up here on PirateBay before.... Guess I'm just spoiled but I would really like that someone put up the rest of the series as DVDr also.... Keep up this good torent though - I'm downloading it as well and it is fully watchable.

JoeMaya (2006-02-27)

Hey Swy000!!! AWESOME JOB!!! I finished season 2 and tried it out, it's wonderful. Am downloading the rest of the seasons now. Can't wait to get part 2. I hope it's soon. Let us know when you plan to upload it. Thanks a million for this awesome upload. My Family's gonna be thrilled to watch this today.

swy000 (2006-03-02)

kawasakikr1: ur welcome.. :) i will keep uploading this till its done. The cool thing is, once 1 person is done, we are gonna have about 30 seeds or so cause everyone is at the same level!!! Glad the quality is kool! i thought it was as well!!
JoeMaya: np buddy! I will put up part 2 as soon as this is done. It on hold! Just waiting for that 100% as soon as someone gets it ;)

tenala (2006-03-05)

nite...

TheWapMan (2006-03-15)

Under 400 MB left.. 99,0%.. looking good... I Really want to throw all the bad ql avi-files on my computer in the trashcan.. but i have to see the ql first.. well back to the books.. once again thanx..

swy000 (2006-03-16)

TheWapMan: dont expect AMAZING quality... the quality is good enough for tv.. i wouldve advised you to check season 1 before you downloaded the whole thing...
its nice having a single season on ONE DVD (Double Layer ofcourse)! and thats what I opted for... let me know what u think however.... 99.9% alot of people on my list!

TheWapMan (2006-03-16)

Okey.. that´s true.. not great quality.. but´s okey.. but nice to have all episodes on only 10 DL instead of 60 different DVDs..
Many thx!! looking forward to 6-10.. ;)
I´ll seed this one for some time now if you want to download the next.. :)

TheWapMan (2006-03-16)

upload... ;)

TheWapMan (2006-03-16)

Hmm some soundproblems when I checked through it (just 1 ep on 1 and 1 on 5) the sound was not synched in season 5.. :(
just my cpu or more that have the problem?

swy000 (2006-03-16)

thats odd! gimme the season and episode number plz....
it should be fine!

swy000 (2006-03-16)

do u mean 1 episode one season 1 is not completely synched and 1 episode on season 5 is not synched????
if yes, plz tell me the episode numbers.... thnx!

TheWapMan (2006-03-16)

Season 5 ep 1-3 when I look through it a bit hasty now.. I will take some more time with it later and look through them all..

swy000 (2006-03-16)

TheWapMan: hey man, i tested all the episodes on Nero Showtime, Windows Media Player, and WinDVD Gold Edition. They are all perfect synch! I also tried it on my dvd player (an LG), and it works perfect their as well.
Try them elsewhere, it must me your CPU or some other thing...
I was a bit surprised, cause the only error i made in all 10 season was in 1 episode in Season 8, and i couldnt correct it. Other than that, most of it is flawless.
Let me know if you have other concerns.

Totoro (2006-03-18)

I think that this episode is missing from the first season:
1.12 The One With the Dozen Lasagnas

yourbuddy123 (2006-03-18)

swy000 (2006-03-20)

erazem (2006-03-20)

hey! this packet is AWSOME! Thanks swy000 many times!!!
I've already watched all 5 seasons and I can't wait for the 2nd part.
How to check private msgs??

ranis (2006-03-21)

This may sound newb, but, what's this? I downloaded it, but I can't watch it. Is this only for burning? In that case, that's cool, and I will do so.. Can anyone walk me through how to do so? Detailed please :P
ANyway, very good job, your'e the MAN. Where can I find 6 - 10?
Thanks

erazem (2006-03-22)

swy000: Hello!
I must say again this is the BEST download!!
I am willing to start receiving the second part - but my upload is only 33 - 30 Kb/s.
Anyway, I can start with that in like 24 hours.
Let me know...
so far I have uploaded over 60 Gb of part 1.

swy000 (2006-03-22)

erazem: i would have wanted someone with a higher upload, but so far your the only one who got back to me, so we can going that... my upload is as much as yours, so im no better. Alot of times, mine degrades as well because I have other stuff i need to run... let me know when you are ready to recieve...
swy000

jdal (2006-03-23)

The best torrent ever!
But how do i seed? i use to leave it on
after i had load down the hole torrent.

erazem (2006-03-23)

swy000: how do I receive the 2nd part from you to seed it later? as I sad my upload isn't very strong, but I would be glad to do so...

swy000 (2006-03-23)

erazem: at the bottom where we are chatting, click on my name and then you can message me in private.
To check your private messages, click on "Preferences" at the bottom of the screen. When the screen loads, it will tell you in the middle of that page "Messages Unread" and how many messages you have....
im still waiting for someone to msg, because someone has 60-70KB/s...if they dont reply, you and i will get this going... although im looking for someone with high upload...

kawasakikr1 (2006-03-24)

I can upload at about 48KB/s if thats any use.

swy000 (2006-03-25)

yes, the higher the better! the best ive got so far is someone with a 30KB upload... 48 would be better.... check your private messages

switchenobos (2006-04-02)

How is things coming on part two? Is there any progress? When can I expect it to be ready for download?
Really enjoying this upload! Thanks alot!! :D

ranis (2006-04-06)

Is "alkohol" like a media player or what? Can you watch the episodes with any computer or do you need a burner? I am currently sitting on a very old comp.

swy000 (2006-04-07)

ranis: no alkohol is an image loader. It allows you to create virtual drives (like a CD or a DVD drive) on which you can put these images in order to watch them. Google around for alkohol and download the program. Ask later if you have more questions. There are other programs out there, i only use this one though.

ranis (2006-04-07)

swy000 THANK you! :D I have downloaded alkohol and made it work :)
One question though. There seems to be something wrong with Season 2. I get to "select episode", but when I choose one, VLC fails to load it :S All other seasons works kind of o.k, but season 2 refuses to open any episode. :/
What's the problem? Why doesn't all seasons work the same?
Again, thank you :)

swy000 (2006-04-07)

ranis: they should all be working..ive asked many people who downloaded it and all seasons are working perfectly. I only have 1 epsiode missing from season 1. Other than that, they should be ok. try it on another computer and see if it does the same thing.....

aXeL718NYC (2006-04-24)

IT ALL WORKS! THX SWY000

swy000 (2006-04-28)

ur welcome....
You canfind seasons 6-10 here:

enjoy...

danild (2006-05-02)

swy000, you're a star!!!
If I ever manage to download the whole damn thing, I promise I'll keep seeding for at least 2 months...
swy000, thanks A MILLION!!!

harakashi (2006-05-08)

french and spanish??!?!?!
what subtitles or vocals?

swy000 (2006-05-31)

danild: you more than welcome... you can find season 6-10 here
harakashi: as i said in the details, ALL episodes have english subs. The audio (vocals) is english. SOME episodes will have various subs, but all episodes have english subs...

Drazzii (2006-07-25)

Is this worth downloading? I mean are there still many seeds and is it a fast torrent?

oink777 (2006-08-18)

Is anyone else experiencing a lagging of the sound in season 4? Is this just the first few episodes or is it the whole season?

swy000 (2006-09-29)

wow, i cant believe this is still here..at one point i thought it was removed... any updates? seeding ok? this is huge i know.maybe i should re-join the seeding process for you guys.... hmmmm

ranis (2006-10-04)

How do you burn these to DVD?
I am new to the whole burning thing, all i have burnt is .avi-files and such.. how do you do with these? What files should i burn, should i burn the whole folder + subfolders or what? Tell me :P
Thank you.

frikie (2006-10-10)

ouch, this is gonna take a while to download. But it shure is worth waiting.
I do hope that i will get it all. A reseed from Swy000 wouldn´t be a bad christmas present:)
And a big THANX to both the current seeders and most of all swy000 for making this torrent!!

Dutcher99 (2006-10-13)

Hi all,
Downloaded this completely and seedes as much as I could. I really like those DVD's and I have watched a lot of episodes.
Currently at the beginning of season 4. I am also experiencing out of sync sound in the first episodes of season 4 (file: VTS_01_1.VOB). Does somebody has a fix for this? Please let us know!!!

ranis (2006-10-28)

swy000, please seed. It woud be.. Well... the best thing EVER. Both this one and Friends 6 - 10. Thank you :D
If you already do. I'm proud of you son. :)

pawnUz (2006-11-26)

marut6bi (2007-05-24)

Hi!
I downloaded this a while ago and burned all on dvd .... but i have discovered, that there are some episodes missing from the ends of the seasons. Has anyone else spotted that?
Would really like to find these missing episodes.

Shponglized (2007-06-15)

i have 10/10 mbit and ill be seeding 10mbit for as much as i can.....

Swayne (2007-08-02)

Can somebody seed please? My download speed is only 2kb/s ... :'( Thanks!

Swayne (2007-08-04)

And one more question please
Are these some extended versions or normal?
Because i'd like to re-dub it ... do a multidub rips ... and slovak audio tracks were made for TV versions not for UNCUT ...
so?

pffft (2008-01-25)

Hey mates got 100/100 mbit, uploading my ass off, and will do so for a few weeks, YAY!

weirdguy99 (2008-07-04)

What is the bitrate of this video? and how would you rate the quality of the video out of 5 stars?

silkthinker (2009-09-21)

thank you very very much for seeding this amazing collection from such a great series.
questions: ntsc? pal? are these the uncut episodes?

silkthinker (2009-09-22)

well. these sound a bit chipmunky on my pc, so i guess they are pal.
:(
you can't please everyone, he.
thanx anyway.

okreblue (2009-11-16)
