welcome element , what program do you need to play it?
Thanks! I wanted to see this, but don't get the channel.
You need BitTorrent, it's a file sharing program that will connect you with other users who have this video file and download it from them.
2% = 10MB, it's 500+ MB??

Hi,
@Lt_Crooks Thx
Like earl seid you need BitTorrent (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/bittorrent/BitTorrent-3.4.2.exe?download) to get the file. Download and install.
When you click at my first link it'll ask you to save a file with a .torrent ending. Do this and then run the .torrent then the program will ask you to save the actual file. You can discontinue the download and continue whenever you want from where you left.

Yeah, its actually going pretty fast 15 KiB/s? thats like 80% of my DSL Bandwidth. But I wish I could pause a BitTorrent.....because my dad got mad that that bandwidth was all gone and made me stop..
I'll have to download it tonight :|

What program are you using? Do a google search for ABC, Azureus, or BitTornado so you can limit the down/upload bandwidth you dedicate to the torrent (and pause/resume when necessary).

Oh ok, thanks. But one thing. When I restarted the bit torrent just now... the progress bar went to where it was before and it says 8% but it says downloaded 0.4 M and 33 hours
not sure if it resumed from the place it started at or not but thanks

It takes a while to find seeders who are willing to upload to you... If you give it like 15-30 minutes, you'll be most likely downloading at max speed at that time.

Does it show the most recent version of the XM8 with the rails?

I finished downloading, 361 Mb and only for 7 minutes footage??
The XM8 part is excellent no doubt, except I was expecting to see the entire show, plus the XM8 part in it.
Does it show the most recent version of the XM8 with the rails?
nope

7 minutes...............................................

I'm encoding the whole clip with Dr. DivX, and the
entire file size is only 52 Mb. It's not finished yet
so I will check for video quality after it finishes encoding.

Oh cool thanks :D woot
Got it, I think it's worthwhile - nice closeups and a fair amount of footage of the gun in action.

I am currently hosting the file on DC++, on ZUMPA and HUSARIA POLSKI hubs. I renamed the filename to: History Channel - Mail Call - xm8 (09-26-04) 7 minutes, file size is 51.8 Mb. When search just type in History Channel and search for video file type.

Is that the exact name of the hubs? I can't find them
Azide
09-30-2004, 12:12 PM
only thing I fiund was a M1 video,
I already got the 300mb version, I just got a problem with sound what codec are you using, specific version?
wildernesswhore
09-30-2004, 12:16 PM
Do you have DIVX and all maybe you need the codec?
Azide
09-30-2004, 12:29 PM
Ok, its working with the classic WMP.

09-30-2004, 12:34 PM
Oh .. lol .. I'm still searching for those hubs :/ If I download VIA BitTorrent its going to take forever.
Ghostwolf

If you know how to use DC++, enter the address in the "manual connect address" (under Public Hubs section):
ZUMPA : zumpa.no-ip.com
HUSARIA POLSKI : husaria.no-ip.org:4111
search terms like "history channel" or "xm8"
On the 361MB version, Media Player 9 didn't play sound and it also froze after 5 minutes, but I had no problem playing it with PowerDVD.

try combination of both, someone just download this clip just hours ago.
If you happen to find the user who has it, message him to give you extra downloading slot.
