TWMX 6IX is one of my favourites. Check out 'The Great Outdoors' series. The 2007 film is great. Townley vs Villipoto :yes:

I have every SX race since 2006 LMAO!! how sad is that, i should delete them actualy since i dont watch them.
The TWMX great outdoors is my all time favourite tho the 2007 was the best so far with the BT vs RV battle.

The McGrath one is a bit too beginner but some pointers here and there.

ok you guys got me into this so I'll ask all you torrent viewers a question or two to suss this out.
The few torrents I have downloaded where avi files so just clicked on them and watched them on VLC player. (through the laptop plugged into the projector).
That WSBk race where Spies ran out of gas was a bloody thriller. Shit those front 3 (the dukes and the R1) where fucken brilliant to watch!!!!
OK so heres the thing I got all keen on this torrent thing and Downloaded an Xvid file 708mb of the Spanish F1 gp.
So now I have a folder with a whole lot of RAR compressed files and some R30files. Do I have to expand these some where as there doesn't seem to be a masterfile you can click on that plays them on after the other??
OK Update: What I found in amongst the RAR archive files was a plain RAR file I extracted this to another folder and that turned into a AVI file of the race. Seems to play ok but is this the correct method to do this?? and can I now dump the original download folder with the archive files & R30 etc in now now that I have formed the new AVI as I hope I don't need the original 708mb file and the new 694mb Avi??
Hope I did this right as couldn't find any instructions on gooogle for doin this? and it was purley a guess as windows didn't even recognise the RAR file I expanded?? Thanks in advance!

I think you can extract any one of the RAR files and it will give you the whole movie file.
I guess you can dump all the RAR's and keep the avi.

correct! once you have the .avi file, the rars are then useless so you can just go ahead and delete them.
Also another hint, if you have a Playstation 3, you can upload the .avi file onto it and just watch it on your tv, thats what i do and the quality is great!

We have our Xbox360 on our home network. We watch all our movies direct from our Azureus folder
I watched 'The Great Outdoors - Industrial Strength' today. It follows the 2006 outdoors from the mechanics perspective. Another awesome film from these guys.

Thanks Guys I good to know I had it sorta correct.
I plugged my laptop into the projector and streamed it over the home network with no lag whatsoever so watched it on the big screen! I know I could have put it on the harddrive over the hard wired gigabit side of the network but I wanted to see if I could just view whatever was in my downloads folder without the transfering hassles! Bloody good!!
I think I'm hooked on this torrent thing. Better than paying $70 bucks a month for sky. Download the F1 and WSBk's, a gig costs about $4 bucks at my Internet rate ($45 for 11 gig) and I can watch it whenever it suits. So I can catch the F1, WSBk or the MX1 when ever I like as long as I allow 3 or so hours for the torrent to download! Shit hot!
Now to get U torrent loaded on the central machine which is on all the time.
Is it reasonably secure from hackers???? I don't like the thought of the big wide world having access to my computer even when its only while downloading??
And do you guys seed all the time or take the torrent out of your torrent program as soon as its arrived in full???

i'll only seed if there isn't many seeds and it's to do with bikes... for movies etc i just snatch and run lol. On a 40 gig cap at $100 a month with telstra cable... bloody fast. I regularly use it all so don't wanna waste too much of my cap on giving stuff away. The thing with torrents is you're giving stuff away as your gaining stuff so a 700mb download can easily use 1gig of your cap

Ahhhhh welcome to the world of torrents!
Ok seeding really depends, i seed for 1 day and then take them off, as uploading is the same as downloading, more you upload the higher your internet usage becomes. depends on your ISP i guess.
One thing you can do to protect your computer is to open what they call a "PORT" which let's say is a road that U torrent needs to conect to the internet, now if you open up that road not only will you get faster donwloads but will also be alot more stable, alot of people disable their firewall while they use U torrent or other torrent program, but if you only open the port that U torrent needs, then your firewall is still operational. I dont need to do any of this as i run a Mac and im am generaly pretty safe.
Here is the link to port forwarding http://portforward.com/ :niceone:

I read you can throttle your upload, which I did. Downloaded 708mb and up about 40mb, but I'll put it back to standard now that I have it sussed so the caring and sharing is equal, otherwise the whole thing screws up if we all download and don't upload!
Any oyther good torrent sites or is Mininova where its at??

One last question I think the WSBK was held last on the 17th at Kyalami, Results are up on WSBK site but no torrent yet!
How long do they usually take on average to come up as a torrent???

Go to mininova type in WSBK which should bring up all the torrents for WSBK showing the last upload, which was round 5. the center of the page will be the RSS feed just click on that subscribe, what this does is gives you a feed to the WSBK torrents, just click on the RSS link and it should show you if any new torrent has been uploaded.

As a general rule the quicker you upload the quicker you can download, assuming you're not using all available bandwidth.
