HBO Hard Knocks Cutom DVD For First Two Episodes

[MTG#10]

http://www.meganova.org/details/803670.html

This is a custom dvd with episodes one and two from the third season of HBO's "Hard Knocks". These episodes are converted to dvd using TMPGEnc 4.0 XPress and Sony DVD Architect 3.0. They are converted from the SYS hdtv xvid rips. The dvd contains menus, and is NTSC. Thanks to SYS for the video source and DaFace for the Arrowhead background. DVD's for the rest of the season will follow as long as I can find good rips like the SYS ones.

If you are new to DVD burning, download and install this http://imgburn.com/index.php?act=download. Open the "HBO.HK.D1.MDS" file with ImgBurn and its pretty self explanatory from there.

I made this dvd for people who dont have the capability of watching divx/xvid files on there television, as well as people who want to share the dvd's with other Chief fans. I hope you guys enjoy it.


I only have a 100kb upload speed so it will take about a day for the first several seeders to latch on. After that it should run pretty fast as long as every one keeps seeding.

[StcChief]

Thanks. This looks like a keeper since making your own is new to me.

Thanks a lot for doing this. :)

[htismaqe]

Dude, this is way cool. My Dad has been wanting to watch and I didn't want to convert to DVD...

[FAX]

Thanks for doing this, Mr. MTG#10.

You are a giant among men.

Say "Hi" to Ron Mexico for us.

Eric doesn't like it when you post torrent information.

[htismaqe]

We need more seeders! Come on everybody! :D

[MTG#10]

Well he can delete the thread if he wants. Nothing was said about the torrent information for the first two episodes.

Gotcha. Well then Eric can kiss my ass. :p

Apparently the original I gave for the torrent file isnt working. This one should work.

Weird, it's working fine for me. How's the for ironic? :D

It is a bit slow, I've been downloading since this morning and only 12.1% done.

This one worked for me. Slow, but working.

[MTG#10]

It will be slow for the first day since Im the only seeder. Its going pretty smooth though, I posted it 4 hours ago and there are two people above 20%. So it should be just under a full day for the seeders to start multiplying.

[MTG#10]

The tracker and torrent files are the same, but the site that hosted the original file I gave deleted it for some reason. I read their rules before I posted it and made sure I followed all of them but it got deleted anyways. :cuss: At least they didnt kick me off their tracker though.

I have no clue what you just said, so I'll just smile and nod. :)

I'm seeding right now. Do I need to do anything? Sounds like they just deleted the Torrent file itself, not the DVD image, right?

[MTG#10]

Correct, everything is fine. They just removed the link to the torrent file from their site, so I uploaded it to meganova.Same torrent, same tracker, and everyone who downloaded it from the original link is fine. The people who get it from the new meganova link are fine too, and will connect to the first set of downloaders. Within the next hour everyone should see their speeds increase a little more because I enabled super-seeding. I thought I already had it set up but I didnt.

[007]

I am showing zero seeds out there right now.

[luv]

I am showing zero seeds out there right now.
I've been downloading for 3 hours, and I'm almost to 9%.

[MTG#10]

I am showing zero seeds out there right now.

Im seeding. Theres 3 people with more than 40% completed and 4 people over 30%.

[Stinger]

I am showing zero seeds out there right now.

Nope there is only 1 seeder right now.

[htismaqe]

I had to stop mine for a bit so I could download some driver files. I'm seeding again.

[007]

Nope there is only 1 seeder right now.
ON mine there were Zero. It has since popped back up to one after about 2 hours of waiting.

[007]

I had to stop mine for a bit so I could download some driver files. I'm seeding again.
Thanks. That explains things then.

[luv]

This is downloading at just under 3% an hour.

[Hammock Parties]

Sucks to be you.

[DaFace]

I had to stop mine for a bit so I could download some driver files. I'm seeding again.

How are you seeding already? I started downloading this as soon as he posted it, and I'm only at 53 percent.

[luv]

Sucks to be you.
Not so much anymore. This is just helping me work on my patience. :)

[Stinger]

Stuck at 93% need seeders please, there are none now. :(

[007]

Stuck at 93% need seeders please, there are none now. :(
Yep, no seeders showing up from mine either. SUCKS.

Shows only 92.9% of the file is available so nobody can get to 100% right now.

[crazycoffey]

Gotcha. Well then Eric can kiss my ass. :p


Eric doesn't like your attitude....

Cool you are working on this, sorry I can't be a seeder, now at a job that I have to limit my time here, and have to stay on "work safe" mode.

[DaFace]

Oh where, oh where has that little seed gone? Oh where, oh where could he be?

[Bob Dole]

How are you seeding already? I started downloading this as soon as he posted it, and I'm only at 53 percent.

Broadband is faster than dialup.

[DaFace]

Broadband is faster than dialup.

Heh...by my calculations it would take around 11 days to download that thing over dialup.

[MTG#10]

Sorry guys, lightning storms, electric out since 7AM, you know how it is. Power is back on, seeding now. Also pay no attention to the tracker error, everything is up and running fine. I have one person at 92% so as long as he's not a douche and continues to seed the speeds should start picking up.

[luv]

After 18.5 hours, I'm at 37%.

I'm no douche, you bastard. :p

[MTG#10]

I didnt know who it was. Now Im showing 3 people above 93%.

You may need to check your settings on your torrent client. You are the only person thats been connected that long that doesnt have at least 60%.

I should be that one at 92% and it is at the computer which I leave on almost always. Now I can be a dick but a douche no way ..... and yes I will help seed. :D

I'm at 93% but was kicked out earlier... Will be seeding..

[Dave Lane]

Aborting the torrent as it was rejected by the tracker while not connected to any peers. Message from the tracker: Torrent deleted or not in pool yet. Go to Demonoid.com and read the FAQ for more info

It could just be that my computer has been acting like a POS lately.

And I have no idea how to check for what, so I'll wait it out.

[DaFace]

IIRC, you're on a shared internet connection with others in your apartment complex, right? If that's the case, I doubt that you'll be able to achieve the same speeds that are possible with a direct connection of your own.

[MTG#10]

Yes that would be the tracker error I previously said to ignore. Its still running fine and everyone will get to complete.

Each bulding has a wireless internet router. If we want to "plug" into it, we buy adapters.

Just for shits and grins, though, what should my connection and BitTorrent settings look like?

[Dave Lane]

Crap I upgraded from 4.x version to the new one and lost my 93% !

A lot of routers block certain ports, especially ports commonly used by torrent trackers. Your client should have a port setting but without knowing which ports your router allows it would be difficult to set up. The only advice I can really give in your situation is to limit your upload speed to about 80% of its max.

[MTG#10]

It should still be on your harddrive...

Yeah, that's the kicker. The changes you would need to make would have to be made on the router itself rather than your own computer. And I highly doubt they'd be willing to give you access to the router to make those changes.

[Dave Lane]

How do you get to it to reload and restart?

Dave

[Delano]

Fantastic. Thanks to all involved.

Looking forward to episodes 3, 4 and 5 in the same format.

[luv]

Oh well. It may take a long time, but, as long as I get it, I don't mind too much.

[DaFace]

Those who do a great deal of torrent downloading tend to get used to your client just running in the background all the time. It usually doesn't affect your browsing experience much.

[DaFace]

How do you get to it to reload and restart?

Dave

1. Make sure that the partially downloaded file is in the download location specified in your client's options. It should be, but if your client zapped all your settings, the download location might have been changed.

2. Redownload the torrent file. In my experience, it will look like you're getting a lightning fast download for a while as it checks to see what has already been downloaded. After a few minutes, though, it should be ready to go.

[DaFace]

I'm done. I'll seed for at least a day or two to let everyone get in on the action.

[MTG#10]

Theres been 4 completions and only one of them is still seeding. :banghead:

[DaFace]

I'm showing two seeds on my client. Any idea if that includes myself?

[luv]

After 22 hours and 48 minutes, I'm at 42.6%!!!

[007]

I just hit 100% so I am helping now.

[MTG#10]

No, it doesnt show yourself. Im showing 3 now. I guess whoever dropped off came back. :)

[KCFalcon59]

Bump. I just started dl this. Can everyone please seed as long as possible. Thanks

[Bob Dole]

Bob Dole is showing 5 seeds, and Bob Dole is at 93.8% complete.

[KCFalcon59]

Is the tracker down for this? It says it hasn't been updated in 4 hours. Will this affect my dl?

[DaFace]

Na, as long as you're getting connected to the other users, you should be in good shape.

[MTG#10]

You'll be okay. Demoniod deleted the torrent from their site and wont tell me why. I didnt break any of their posted rules. It still works fine, just ignore the tracker error.

[htismaqe]

I left for Omaha at 6:30 this morning and left mine running. I'm sure I'm at 100% now, so that should help.

[KCFalcon59]

Good deal.

[ChiefFan31]

Thanks for doing this to the thread starter. I want to be able to give these to my Pops. He keeps missing them, and wont get DVR for some reason.


Anyways, I am done d/l'ing and seeding now. :)

[007]

Bump. I just started dl this. Can everyone please seed as long as possible. Thanks
For you? Nah. :)

[ferrarispider95]

Any help?

I am getting an error saying that it cannot connect to the tracker while not connected to any peers

Theres a million things it could be. First, try downloading a different torrent from demonoid.com and see if you have any problems.

[ceebz]

Hmmm, tried this on three different machines, (2 XP and one Mac) and I can't connect to any peers/seeds. All of my ports are forwarded correctly and I regularly download torrents from demonoid and Oink, so, I don't think my setup is faulty.

Any ideas?

[MTG#10]

Im still seeding to 11 peers. Im rather disappointed that so many people bailed on this after they completed. Ive never saw more than 4 seeders at one time. I dont know what to tell you guys that are now having problems, its still running and others are still downloading.

IIRC, that was one of DRU's main complaints when he seeded the full game caps last year.

[MTG#10]

Im going to keep seeding it until the people Im connected to are finished but thats it. Ive already uploaded almost 15 Gb. I'll post the next dvd to a mininova tracker, so hopefully a lot more people will get it and keep it alive longer.

[unlurking]

I'm still downloading, only 63% after about 36 hours. I seem to average uploading at double my download rate. Only see 4 seeds (2 of which I am connected to).

Disabled peer guardian to see if I would get any added connections. Doesn't seem like it.

Limit your upload to 15kb.
