What size/encoding do you prefer??

Two weeks for 14gb? Not impressed.

Oh yeah…

Everyone has their computers on 24/7 - 365 days a year uploading. More Sarcasm

Hi
Just my 2 cents

I would really prefer full vids in ISO-format. Makes burning quite easy. No idea, why they are frowned upon here.

Better still, pack them into multivolume RAR files, each file about 50 MB. As all unrar progs I know will happily unpack them - with one click for mouse fans or a short command for the real guys - handling tem should not be difficult at all.
The big benefit here, should the file prove faulty, all you have to do is create and add a few PAR files to your torrent, and those who have already donwoladed it will only have to get those few additional files. The traditonal way so far is to make a totally new torrent and everyone has to download it completely again. Quite a waste of bandwith.

I normally burn ISO-files to a DVD [1] and delete them afterwards. Recreating the ISO is quite easy. Burning VIDEO_TS directories however often results in slightly changed files (at least Nero [2] occasionally does so) which will prevent me from reseeding :-(.

So my proposal and wish is: More ISOs and if possible in RAR/PAR format.
Maybe someone will second me. If the gods of this site agree to ISO-file in RAR/PAR format, I might even feel tempted to write a short guide.

[1] There are many great programs for burning ISO-files, none of them under the name of Nero.
[2] I haven't found a decent program able to correctly writing VIDEO_TS structures to a DVD. Well you can convert them into an ISO-file but that alse takes some time. So it's Nero to save time, but it's a piece of sh*t, really.

Pointing out the obvious…

Leave the resolution the same as the origin, encode the video with h.264/x264. Best audio compression is with Vorbis, so using the Matroska container is wise.

Or just stick with xvid/mp3. :love:

I like xvids to be under 1 GB and standalone compatible. If I like a movie, I like a DVD image, but will rarely download these as a first choice.

If Tom allow for ISO in GayTorrent, that will be great

But one small thing to make sure everyone that will use ISO if Tom allow it. Please never convert the video to .NRG file, it a Nero Burning ROM Image, their own version of .ISO. It really pain in the a** for any Mac User because Nero dont have a mac version for it. It painfully for me to dual boot to Boot Camp Window Xp and reconvert the file to ISO and boot it back to Mac. And im sure for some Mac User dont have Boot Camp will scream and throw their mac to the person who uploading that file. It rare to see .nrg file but it out there in any torrent website. I encountered it a few times and found out it the only file available. Trust me, there is no .nrg converter for mac, i asked many times in any mac forum, their best advice is to use Window to convert it to ISO. If you planning on using Nero to make it a .iso, make sure it is a .ISO, not Nero's ISO.

Forgot to add a few things. OSX cant mount .nrg file and there is no apps for Mac that can mount .nrg.

it depends on the quality and encoding.
