Default GRRRR, connection problem!!!???

Hi all!!!

I saw the other thread about this, but it didn't really help me and i am a bit of a n00b in computer stuff.

Anyway my problem is, when i try to download a video, the file dowloading says "Connecting" for about 10-15mins and then nothing happens or it just goes to "Needs More Resources". I tried this with numerous videos/music files and the problem still pops up.

Can the mods give me any suggestions or give me a guide which is easily understandable. Do I have to change some settings, etc???????

Thanks in advance.

There's a lot of fake files around now, mostly new releases & really popular files with heaps of sources ( up to 100). Search again, vary your search terms, try the All Types search & stay away from the files with huge numbers of sources. Go for a file with 10 sources or less.

Look up a video before download with Bitzi, it will give you an idea of content & quality. Some music files are rated with Bitzi but not many!
