Any advise for downloading a movie?
 
I looked for a specific movie, & I thought I did it right, but only porn came up. I couldn't even read some of the titles, they were so... ewww! :yikes: :nono:

I read somewhere about Bizit or something?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tips:

1. Direct instructions to eliminate porn from results

2. Movie download issues

3. Beware of Fake files in search results, & also this http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showpo...56&postcount=2

Thank you Lord for your quick reply. I will try it.

I'm back & I tried it with good results, I actually feel that I know what I'm doing, lol.

I have read some more trying to find out what the difference between T3 or higher, Cable/DSL & Modem in relation to me downloading, if theres a particular one I should choose. Also what mpg avi mp4 is. Should I worry about which one to choose?

All links relate to speeds within LW: (1) What speeds are T1/T3, etc. for LW, _____ (2) More on LW connection speeds by Verdyp.
_____________________ (3) What is a T1? by rkapsi

T3 is the fastest & if you have similar to those speeds then it will give you an advantage setting it thus in regards to downloads.

I don't know why I couldn't find these links, thank you again. I'm learning alot. Who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks, lol.

:xirokrotima:

We will know in 6 hours & 20 minutes if my first ever movie download has worked, lol. Thank you Limewire.

MrsVege November 29th, 2006 03:46 PM

I think the one I chose was a 'fake file'. It had the dots before the mpg, & when I figured out how to browse host, it was full of porn, so.... ???

I think I found a safe one this time. I will get back to you later on in the day.

Lord of the Rings November 29th, 2006 03:58 PM

Don't get confused just because it has a lot of dots. "sometimes" that simply means that the file title is longer than the area you have to allow for a filename so the end of the file name has a ... representing there is more in the file name. If you hover your cursor over the filename in LW, then the entire name will display. If you still see ... in the yellow contextual menu then it's a fake.

Okie Dokie... download complete. I know its the right one because I found the preview button, lol, & it came up in the Windows Media Player. Thank you for all your good advise to get me this far.

Now I have created another question.

How do I put it on a disk? Am I allowed?

I use DVD Shrink & DVD Decypter. I can't seem to find the file even though I know where it is. Its got me baffled.

wondering why November 30th, 2006 01:27 AM

Their good apps but you need to convert the files and burn them...
Try http://www.dvdsanta.com it's so easy to use...The Demo version is great, it has no time limits, the only thing it has is a demo message at the top of the screen in your output video, but you can overcome this by zooming in a frame with your dvd remote...

If you have any troubles with it, just let me know, I will be able to help you sort them out....:rolleyes_2:

MrsVege November 30th, 2006 02:59 AM

I will try the dvdsanta in the morning & get back to you. I'm a bit worried about my 'input video', I didn't know I had one, & also the zooming bit... what remote?

Don't answer these please, I just want to laugh about it later when I 'do' understand it.
