No Audio, What Happened??? HELP I am a totally newbie at this downloading thing. I just bought a computer with a DVD burner and I joined limewire to dowload movies and music. I looked up a movie my wife has been wanting to see, it had a dowload entitled 1 of 2 and 2 of 2 so I assumed it took two downloads and 2 DVD's . It was an AVI format, which I don't understand the different types, does one play back better in some machines? Anyway it took awhile to download, about 30 min and then I burrned it which took about 30 to 40 min. When I played in my DVD player the preview started with sound and everything looked ok, except the quality of the picture was not all that great, but it might have been the file I don't know. Anyway about 3 min into the movie all the sound completely stopped and never returned. Did I do something wrong? Can somebody give me some do' and don'ts about downloading movies and how to avoid this from happening again. Also is the picture quality usually poor from a downloaded version. thanks ahead of time for all your help. Kevin L. |
I can assure you that most movies that you find online are not as good as the commercially bought ones. You can get close though. Consider the size of a 6-8 GB movie compared to one that's 5-700 MB (perhaps 1/10th the size.) That's a lot of info to throw away in order to reduce the size! I'm not the best to answer about dwnlding movies but files that are divx, mpeg & hopefully avi should be reasonable. It can depend upon the quality of the app encoder used to reduce the size & also of the skills of the user. There are decent ones out there. But too many people go for the easy & cheap & nasty encoders/converters that do a disastrous job. Make sure the movie is at least 500 MB in size. If you can, try to preview it at intervals whilst you dwnld it. Also preview it before you burn it to be sure it has no probs.
