Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Default Packing MP3 songs on one cd

Hello all, well this is my problem, I have many songs that I have down loaded, and its in the limewire file, I use nero to burn with, I am using rw cd's, If I just make a cd with only a few songs on it, it works fine and sounds great, but if I pack alot of songs on one cd, you can hear the song, but it also makes loud screaching noises as well as other strange noises while the song is playing. Like I said if I just make a cd, once I grag all the songs over, it breaks them into 10 of 15 songs per cd, but if I try to burn for MP3- all the songs like 70 of them, they all go on and it appears everything is fine while burning, but the songs come out with screaching while song is playing, does anyone have a clue why this is happening and how I can fix it, I have the Lime Wire Pro, I also tried to down load using Roxio, and still the same . Thanks in advance for some help on this matter, its realy pissing me off, I ride a bike and changing cd's while riding is kinda hard, so one cd with lots of music is the only way I can go. Thanks

In XP, I've had the best success using the [DEMO, or BASIC] Application "Burn 4 Free."
It will show you a green bar, if all [73 +/-] popular songs will fit. If you place a 74th song, the bar goes Orange, or finally, RED. You need to set it on about 2.5x,--not the fastest-- burn speed. Later, try a really fast burn speed and see if it's OK.

If you start with RAR-files, you may need to use their 'Pro' version, or resort to some other de-compression tool, as this 'CODEC' domain is where the problem you describe probably lies.

The most I've ever been able to fit on a CD is 23 songs. How do you get so many?

I think they are referring to burning an mp3 disk, not your normal Audio cd. Normal audio CD's can hold a maximum of either 74 mins or 80 mins approx each. mp3 disks can hold as many songs as the file sizes allows them to.

74 min cd (650 MB) can hold 650 MB of mp3 files, and of course the 80 min (700 MB) disks hold 700 MB (approx.) of mp3's.

Personally I've also burnt mp3 dvd's but I can only play them on dvd player or computer. Some players nowadays are dvd compatible.

Good points, everybody can add if they take a second to look at the file sizes. This "skreetching sound" on his jam-packed MP3 disc feels like more a function of his portable player, after considering the likely delivery mechanism.

It wasn't until probably around 2003 that all the CD players manufactured could read 'home burned' discs, and it wasn't until 2008 that I decided it was 'safe' for me to try to burn one! --I couldn't take the Vinyl out of the mix for years. Portability, and convenience are the main benefits as a iPod nano can hold a big box full of cassettes, more than you want rolling about in the car. Additionally, I don't think all pre-recorded music needs to be high quality. I rather like some songs that end abruptly: [buy the damn album!] But, the main thing about trading MP3's is that we are rapidly making the nuiance of our world's disperate cultures more assessible to all.

I would burn you guys a really hip CD, but I can't decide what to put on it!!

there is no special disc for mp3s....just a typical CD or DVD burned as a data disc....fine points would be if one puts individual artists (or specific types of tracks) into folders as opposed to none being in folders....

I would think staying away from RW discs would be a good idea, as many players don't like them...
