How the hell i open these files?
You can't just open them! You need to take them out to dinner first, and buy them a few drinks. Then they will open for you.

this is what it says on the 101 link in this thread
-
http://audiohub.org/bt/bt101.htm
Decompressing flac and shn to wav files. You need to convert flac or shn to wav in order to burn to CD audio discs (or use the Nero or Plextools plugins to decode and burn in one step):
- flac frontend will convert flac files to wav so they can be burned to CD. If you have Nero installed, the flac frontend installer will also install a plugin to let you decode and burn to CD in one step.
- mkwACT will decode shn files to wav - read and follow the install instructions at etree! See below for a Nero plugin link for burning.
- Mac OS X Users can use xACT to convert flac and shn audio files
See the SHN FAQ for more info on shn compressed audio files.
If you get errors in trying to convert a file, run the torrent again and have it test whether you really got to 100%. (You may need to force a re-check if you've set it to resume automatically.) If you're the only one having trouble converting the files, you probably need to run the torrent longer and get to 100%.
Playing compressed files from your hard drive. You can also play flac and shn files from your hard drive on your computer using WinAmp - that's handy for listening to stuff right away, sampling single tracks downloaded with Azureus, or seeing if you want to burn a show to disc. But you need the right "plugins" for WinAmp to decode the files:
- Flac frontend will install the plugin if you have WinAmp installed on your computer. Or, if you want just the plugin, download this zip file from the Rarewares lossless page - you want the little "in_flac.dll" file, currently version 1.1.2.. Unzip and copy the file into your WinAmp\plugins folder, then restart WinAmp.
- For shn, get the shnAmp plugin
The free lite version of WinAmp 5 works fine for this.
Mac users who want to play files from their hard drive might try MacAmp Lite or videolan media player (for flac).

A new and uncut version of the opening night at Fenway Park, Boston (21/8/05) is now up on dimeadozen

Hopefully someone will grab it soon and offer it here as well
Another new version of the 2nd Boston show will be uploaded on DAD by the same taper within the next few days
Things are starting to kick in now with the 2005 shows. Keep an eye on this thread for more soon... |

Mac, (or anyone) do you know where your initial bt set up instructions are located? I tried the previous thread link that Voodoo posted and it's a dead link.
I'm facing my fears and want to take a serious look at starting the bt trend...

you get rid of it by making a few posts..its on your avatar as a 'welcome' as you're a new poster.
The line comes from Jagger's spoken intro to the crowd during a concert at Madison Square Garden, as immortalized in the "Gimme Shelter" movie

Thanks, I saw the movie a long time ago but I don't recall that line. Actually all I seem to remember is that naked chick trying to get to the stage and a dog wandering around on stage during all the confusion. Maybe its time I watch it again... |

well..there was a guy who got stabbed to death...I'd have imagined that would have been more memorable an image to take from the film than a dog walkin' across a stage, but each to their own...lol |

Question...
When I download DVD torrents, how do I burn them to disc? Do I just burn them as a data disc and then just include all the files within the torrent and burn them to a normal CD-R? |
September 2nd, 2005 01:39 PM |
|
|
Glenn |
You have to burn the VIDEO_TS files to a blank DVD. If you want to put them on a CD-R and play them in your DVD player I believe you have to convert them to a different format such as AVI. |

Can't really find anything on there. It's my first torrent so I'm sure I must be doing something wrong |

To burn your captured DVD to a blank go to www.slysoft.com and download the demo of CloneDVD...open it up and click on the bottom option, Copy Existing Data, it'll bring up a screen that says, Enter the ISO/VOB Files To Transfer, a box will come up, just select the path to the file you are burning then go to the other side of the screen and press Write...when the sheep starts eating out of the bowl in the animation you are in business! Hope this helps you out... |

Hey all I am a newbie to bit torrent. I have azureus and have used it once but am a little confused about using it at a dime a dozen. (this seems to be where shows from this group are posted?)It seems the version of Azureus that I am using will not work there. Can anyone recommend a program that will work there or another site that I can use Azureus. I am more than happy to leave my pc on to help others upload.
Thanks for any help.
