You don't get that with a torrent system. Maybe Usenet is an option but I think you have to pay a monthly fee to stay on it.
    There is an option in the options/Tracker/Server to apply a password, that will help until a few seeds have it. At least until someone sends to someone in the USA a "pssst, this password is a secret, don't pass it on ". If we download too much we may pop up on the popular downloads list - then we ARE in trouble!

    The FTP has been an issue for Skew because of me and what I have been up to today. Unfortunately I have been downloading on two PCs and uploading on three - I only have one router. Added to that, I have had to use my server (MMC reader/writer) to upload a half gb to my phone in addition to it being the FTP server and also uploading another file on Azureus, so the CPUs in my house are supplying the heat for the evenings comfort. It should be better now, sorry Skew .

    I think I may have just hit on a solution. When I create the torrent file, I have the option of making it 'decentralised'. This means you have to have Azureus to download it BUT it isn't posted on any website for all and sundry to get. I can just email the torrent to those who request it and they would be forum members only.
    I just tried it now and emailed a new decentralised torrent to my work computer which installed it and commenced downloading from my home computer straight away, bypassing the Mininova or Torrentspy sites completely. (I can control the work comp from home using LogmeIn)

    So, if we make decentralised tracking and we all get Azureus, we don't have to share anything with anybody else but those who have the email. Of cousre, what happens to the files once they are on somebody else's computer, we have no control over, even if they are forum members.

    Is that going to be OK? It just means if you use torrents, you have to have Azureus. You can request the torrent file from me or anybody else who makes one which we can email to you (only very small files so dial up is no issue) and then proceed as normal. You can still FTP from Groggy if you prefer.

    This could be the answer.
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    Re the copyright issue, it is my understanding that all works are granted copyright by default to the author at the time of item creation (in Australia).

    They haven't been published on the forums, only information on how to obtain a copy has been posted - so I don't believe any copyright has been transferred.

    I think that it would still be a good idea at least to put some contact details at the end of each video (just an email address, throwaway if necessary to stop spam) so that if anyone wants to legitamately do something with the video, at least they can contact the author to discuss.

    I had an idea for a simple project recently (was actually thinking of kids toys), and it has taken to now to remember it, and realise how suitable it would be for many as we embark on a new way of communicating our various 'talents'.

    It may seem like a severe case of overkill, but when I have the inclination (and the energy), I prefer to use more than 1 camera, and separate audio recording devices, and getting all these synchronised is a PITA if you don't use a clapper board.

    (I videoed my own wedding, with the help of a couple of friends, and at any one time had 4 video cameras and 2 separate audio recorders going. Getting the resulting footage all synchronised before choosing what view to use when was a right nightmare, as I didn't have a clapper board. I ended up using camera flashes (ie from people taking photos) to synchronise the tracks.

    What would have been thousands of times better would have been getting all the cameras looking at the same clapper board, then without stopping any camera, repositioning them and leaving them rolling. Would then have taken seconds to synchronise all the tracks rather than the 100 odd hours! (My friends tried to do the editing in-camera, constantly stopping and starting the recording, rather than just leaving the camera rolling, so each time they stopped then started, was another synchronisation that was needed. Luckily people take a lot of photos at weddings so I had plenty of camera flash instances to synchronise with!))

    Hi Dingo

    Once you have installed Az, you can then click on one of the movie links. It will take you to another web page, where you will find the actual file for download. When you click on this, a window will pop up asking what program you want to use, and you point it at Az, and click ok. That's it.

    Hope that makes sense.

    After doing it once, you will be a pro in no time!

    What it means is your router is blocking the torrent. If you got into your router setup program, you should be able to tell it to allow traffic on the port that is currently saying is blocked.

    A port is a gateway through your router. Some gateways are open, allowing you to do things like download web pages, send emails etc. (I think port 80 is the norm for emails). There are other ports set aside for video calls, etc etc. Torrents use a different port again - it is a security thing- turning off the gateways that are not needed. In this case, the gateway you need for the torrent is currently shut, but as you know you need it open, you need to tell your router to do so.

    Hope that is enough, without being too confusing (I'm still coming to grips with it all myself).

    Part 1 of the Ubeaut Finishing video is now available.

    You'll notice that the torrent file has been made available as a zip file. This is simply because the forum upload will only accept files with certain file extensions. In case some of you don't understand zip files, I'm going to attach the torrent file to this post as well, but rename it to something else and see if it works. I have renamed it by adding .txt to the end. You can download this file by clicking on it and choosing the save option. Then when it's on your computer, right click on it, rename it by deleting everything after the word 'torrent' (i.e delete the .txt). This file can then be imported into Azureus as usual.

    Enjoy the video, parts 2 ,3 and 4 are ready to be released so the quicker we get this out, the sooner we can start the others.

    You may find that these downloads slow your computer down somewhat. You may be better off to start the download overnight when you aren't using the computer. It may be easier for you to seed at that time too.

    Help
    My problem is that the two latest will only play as audio - I have the latest version of Media Player, but I don't get a picture. Gumby's lesson on thicknessing and jointing is fine but the two from DPB are sound only. What do I need to do?
    Cheers
