SI cover)09/24/02 -- Miami 30. N.Y.Jets 3 (Miami breaks 8 game losing streak)We have had several volunteers but many dont know how to go about encoding (Capturing ) the DVDs or Tapes.We have several people who are knowledgeable about encoding and we can help you share them on the torrents.They include AWING PILOT,Jaxdolfan,Chrisko,KennyStang,Max Power,Medieval,Phinphreak,Crunch Time.
What is a torrent ? Basically it a file sharing system.The way it works is that a fellow member records the game,edits the commercials, compresses the result into a digital file which is then uploaded to a bittorent site.
To download a copy of the game You need to first install a client (Program).Then you open the torrent file (A text file which gives instructions to your client) and it will start loading the video file on your HD.Here is a link to the client we recommend.In order to see the encoded video on your PC you will need to install codecs.That only comes into play after the load is complete and you want to see the game on your PC player.You will be advised what codecs to install.A very good media player that will read most codecs is the Videolan player.Here is the link.http://www.videolan.org/vlc/The DVD size videos do not need codecs but do need special viewers such as WinDVD and PowerDVD.To watch the DVDfile on your PC just open the vob.files.To burn a DVD try the following tips
BTW the torrents that are not DVD quality will suffer in comparison if your objective is to burn the video and watch it on a big screen.They are oriented for PC viewing.Here is the link for the codecs for the Divx ripped videos.
For those who would like to load the game but who need additional technical help check the following FAQs.For those with a technical backgroundWe request that you roll back through the thread if you have any questions.The information you seek may have already been answered.
No torrent can be successful without the participation of encoders(Those who capture the video, encode and upload the torrents),seeders (Those who stay on after they finish loading to help out other members who are trying to finish) and leechers (A misnomer as they are also sharing their BW as they are trying to finish). If you are interested please post on this thread.The torrents usually start slowly and build up downloading BW (bandwidth speed) as those who finish stay on to seed for those who have not finished.If done properly it has an snowballing effect.
Some helpful info for Encoders/Cappers
To edit commercials you can try a program called Virtual Dub.There is another associated mod program called Nandub which will help you resolve any audio sync issues.There are other programs as well that can do the job.
There are several encoding programs you could use.Check the following comparison tables..http://graphics.csail.mit.edu/~tbue.../avi.html#divx5
To upload a torrent you first have to make a torrent file.You can use a program called Maketorrent 2.1 for this purpose.Link
Its a simple procedure.The most important information is the URL of the tracker you will be using.
Note to Encoderslease include the following NFO text file with your upload.
Note to new Encoders and Cappers.It might be a good idea to upload a sample of your torrent before uploading your main torrent.
