Oops! didn't see that bit - the peer list displays ip addresses not user names.

yep that's right - unless you know your ip address I can't tell what you're downloading

As for checking how it's going when you're at work, I don't know a way. Most peers I'm connected to have around 90% on CD 1, 63% on CD 2 and 93% on CD 3. Shouldn't be too long before there's more than one seed, which is when your download speed should really pick up.

I'm using a Mac, and it didn't shorten the names.
They came through as:

TheVelvetUndergroundUltimateMonoAcetates658396.Demonoid.com.torrent

etc.

That's good! I just had a feeling because there were a few queries about the torrent files overwriting each other or something similar. Technology eh?

A BIG thanks for this, however there seems to be problems with disc 1 (the only one I have downloaded so far). I get flac-decoding errors on track 1, 7,8 & 9.

Anybody else have this problem?

(I'm starting to download disc 2 now)

dsulpy · Post by **dsulpy** » 23 Sep 2005 17:12

Yes. Four flacs seem to be bad (:-O!)

upsetter · Post by **upsetter** » 23 Sep 2005 17:18

Yes - same errors here

I've uploaded new flacs - see this page:

sorry about that - something went wrong in the flac conversion process - should have checked but was a bit too excited about getting it out!
