Discussion about bugs and backups :)
-
I have uploaded a new file. Here's the link http://tracker.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=89980 is that what you needed.

Just to remark: It was not me saying that about 1 GB should be the right size … simply because I hunt for full DVD and some take me weeks and months to complete. (Currently I am downloading a DVD DL since 34 days and the estimated time to go is more than another week, there is one seed in the 1 to 2 kB/s area).
If a full DVD upload can be finished in a week, that seems for me a still acceptable endeavour. We have a set of rules targeting to reduce the complete distribution time of new torrent's files for the confort of the downloader [1]. However if these are respected, the downloader just have to accept that big file uploads may take a long time and to thank the uploader for the file they get. It is only the initial upload phase which may be long, the download speed will be much faster as soon as the swarm got in hold of a complete distributed copy.
Now, to the question of Rich,
Not sure, the .mpg is made from what, a single .vob file?
What guys like mgr and me are looking for is the content of the full VIDEO_TS folder (directory), means all the .ifo , .bup and .vob files (to repeat all), respectively the single .iso file. A torrent programme in the new torrent creation menu will ask if you want to create a torrent from a single file or a directory (read folder). There you need to choose "Directory" and then point to the VIDEO_TS folder which you have renamed by the movie title before.
If you want to make a compressed version of the DVD main movie, I can recommend "Handbrake", either version 0.93 if you really want an AVI or the latest if an .MKV or .MP4 is acceptable for you. It can load the files of a VIDEO_TS folder, detects the main movie and got Profiles for different devices to play later the file on. Then you need to make some trials to find the settings satisfying you.

OK I'm seeding the file Ritualpt1 and waiting to see what my upload speed is but no one has downloaded it. Â I understand that whole movies are the preference and that's what I'm always looking for too. Â I cut the video down to test the system and it looks like a total failure. Â What should I do next? Â I'm seeding only the one video right now to free up all my available upload bandwidth.

Is that the full movie or just a change of a .vob into an mpg, means not the complete movie?
No one is downloading it yet, because it isn't approved. I was waiting with the approval for you answer to the same question in my previous message.
It says part 1, so will be there more parts?
Why don't you go directly to a full DVD Video upload?
Note a 1.26 GB version AVI of this movie does already exist.

This is a test upload, mate. I did a search for the movie and didn't see it in the library and yes I cut to first seen and only uploaded that. But if this video already exists then I will not add anymore of this movie to the site. I have the DVD but I can't get a upload speed that's going to allow me to furnish you with full movies at the highest quality. That may change after my test but for now I'm only uploading this one seen so I can calculate the time needed to seed a huge 4.5 gig movie. I've seen many video's cut down into pieces and the mpg format looked to be the highest quality but also the largest file size. Would an AVI file be better and compress the whole thing down to seven or eight hundred meg file? That's not what MGR said. He likes the highest quality and I agree with that. I would rather cut the film into smaller parts that are more easily managed then huge files. If this is the wrong approach I'll gladly change my strategy but for now I'm still testing the system for the best results.

You have completed the upload of the 604 MB file in less than 90 minutes (first leecher completed his download after 87 minutes).
This makes an average upload rate of about 115 kB/s, which for an ADSL line is an excellent value and largely high enough to upload a full double layer DVD (which can reach more than 8 GB).
BTW: Like mgr I prefer the highest possible quality and are prepared to take the longer download time to complete. I thought that was clear in my earlier first posting on this subject.
Splitting in mpg parts and upload one after the other doesn't make things better. If you repack .vob into mpg, the movie file size will be very similar and the menus and extra of the DVD lost. This while the overall download time to get all parts will be similar.
Really you can share full DVD VIDEO_TS folder or ISO images.

Bravo Rich, glad you made it
Hey guys, I found a way to display at same time the File list AND the Seeders/Leechers list of any torrent !
I don't think we could do it until now : depending on where we clicked, the description page displayed the File list OR the Seeders/Leechers list.What about the following link ?
(Rich, it's your 1st your torrent link)
http://tracker.gaytor.rent/details.php?id=89980&filelist=1&dllist=1As promised, your 20 SBP haven't been forgotten (in fact I gave you all my SBP as I won't need them anymore)
Don't forget, now you can exchange anytime 350SBP into 5GB upload traffic, that's good for your ratio. -
I have another question. The last torrent I uploaded was huge 1.4 gigs for 25 min of film. Is that right?? Did I do something wrong?
-
That does sound a little high for a video that is so short, however depending on the resolution, (640x480, 1820x1080, etc) the format of the video, audio and video bitrates, etc. the size of the video may vary. Generally speaking though, for a video of that size, that does seem a little large. If however the video is a .vob then it's likely about right… It would also be about right if you have an extremely high bitrate for both audio and video with a large resolution.
-
In that actual case it looks to be a .MPG. If it is rightly done, it is just the re-packaging of the video stream and one audio stream in a .VOB without decoding / re-encoding (and therefore without quality loss).
The result is a similar size than the .vob (minus the lost content like subtitle sub-pictures, menus and additional audio streams).
Unfortunately some conversion programmes don't allow changing the container without decoding / re-encoding and will therefore create quality losses even if excessive bit rates (and therefore resulting file size) are chosen for video and audio.As discussed earlier, instead of uploading a DVD in parts, it is better to share all the VIDEO_TS folder content (.IFO , .BUP and .VOB) in one torrent, giving the full DVD experience with menus, extras, subtitles and multiple languages audio.

MrMazda and Uwe, Thanks for getting back to me on this issue. :urock: I'd like to clear one thing up for you first. :pleasant: It's was a suggestion that prompted me to cut the film into smaller sections. Their is a torrent already listed for the whole film but I was made aware that some members may only want the sex scenes. Plus some members with smaller hard drives may enjoy the smaller file size.
I have no problem offering the whole folder as a complete DVD and for the most part that's what I'm going to do. This is just an unusual situation and I would like to get the best solution. I'm no expert when it comes to video editing or formating but I'm a quick learner. Quality is my biggest concern. I'm wandering what would be the best program for me to use? I am using Power Director v8 now and it's easy to us and the conversion options and not bad, AVI, MPEG 1, MPEG 2, Mpeg 4, AVC, WMV, RN, and MOV. Standard setting only. You cannot customize any of these settings on the outputs. I used the MPEG 1 setting to cut the 25 min. of film and that's where the 1.4 gigs came from. I did have a complain about the quality of the picture and size of the file. ""1.46 GB ? seriously? for a "clip" that is only 25 ninutes long, not in HD or even wide screen. Im surprisedÂ
Yeah the clip is hot but I can't get over the lack of quality "" that was made by (djclintonk) I don't want to waist time with junk videos and get comments like this again. The video quality was not HD on my DVD and the copy looks the same as the original so there's nothing I can do about that.So maybe a video training class needs to take place. Or!! Is there one already and I haven't found it? A short "How to" video would be great as well. Hmmm
Basically what I need is, what program to use and what the settings should be to get the best output. :google: I'm looking!!!

If you have unprotected DVD files, I'd suggest to use Handbrake. It will create either MP4, M4V (for some Apple device compatibiliy) or MKV and you can set quite a lot of encoding parameters, but got "Profiles" with default working settings.
Else in Quality for Size ranging from best to worst:
AVC (as well known as h.264 or by a codec x.264 or MPEG-4 Part 10)
MPEG-4 (best known codecs DivX and Xvid)
MPEG-2 (used for DVD)
MPEG-1 (used for VCD)Many DVD player can handle AVI with MPEG-4 files.
While the playback of MOV, MP4 and MKV is generally limited to HDTV devices (Digital TV set-top-boxes, Blu-ray Disc players).MOV and MP4 are quite similar container (usually used for MPEG-4 or AVC).
RM is known to make small file sizes and bad quality (may be because of excessive low bitrate settings while encoding).
WMV should be comparable to MPEG4 and AVC
In the above list, it is reverse for calculation power for encoding and decoding, the better require more power, respectively encoding time.
In short, for your clip, either MPEG-4, AVC or MOV would have been a better choice

If you're wanting to convert, I personally use VideoPad Video Editor because it allows you to do a multitude of things, including adjusting the audio levels and choosing the exact encoding and such to use. As for format, I generally prefer AVI because of the fact that although AVI files are slightly larger, it's partially because they don't use compression in which to render the video, thus generally producing a video with better qualtiy. As for the video codec, I generally prefer DivX because it's free and widely available. XVid is also another worthy option of choice when working with an AVI file.
As for the bitrate, quality, etc, my suggestion is to match it as closely as you can to the original rates of the video. Dropping the audio and/or video rate settings slightly does tend to reduce the size, but I advise against dropping the bitrates too much as it can result in poor quality sound and/or video. VideoPad Video Editor also allows you to manually specify the resolution, etc and can be adjusted to force any resolution you specify. If you're just looking for a straight converter, I would be inclined to suggest Any Video Converter. There is a free version, however the professional version (which I have a cracked copy of) offers a much wider range of formats and support. It's a little more straight forward than VideoPad Video Editor, but does the job just the same in most cases.

Thanks guys. This information is spread out all over the place so it's great to get it condensed and to the point from you. I'll try some things and get back to you.  :thankyou:

I have a question regarding the ratios. I downloaded a file that was over a gig (RSS - Night Maneuvers.avi) and my torrent program says I've uploaded .994, however gaytor.rent has only recorded 478.42 of the 1002 I've already uploaded. I'm not sure what the reason is for this. Also I am not sure if there is any recourse for this either. Thanks for your help….if you require screenshots of my torrent program, please let me know.

Did you stop seeding in-between and then after restarted? The displayed upload on GayTorrent.ru is only showing the upload since the last start. In addition the tracker is update only each 30 minutes.
Only the global upload and download counter are adding up all together (the reports received from your torrent programme by our tracker).
-
I cannot seem to find where it was posted, but there is a simple answer for that. The measurement that your torrent client provides you with is compiled by a calculation of the content that your actual torrent client has uploaded and downloaded for each torrent. In this calculation, there is some traffic that does get uploaded and downloaded at certain times that is not actual torrent content. This results in a difference between what your torrent client shows and what the tracker shows. When the tracker calculates your ratio, it calculates it based on the actual torrent content data uploaded or downloaded, and does not take into account other traffic that will pass through your client. Generally, this will result in a slightly higher number set in your torrent program than will show on the tracker in general.
That being said however, the difference is not usually a whole lot. I think perhaps attaching screen shots or uploading them to BitBucket may be a little more helpful. If there indeed is a large discrepancy, more technical information may be required such as your operating system (including 32 or 64 bit) and torrent program may be required. As a general rule, it never hurts any to post as much detail on the matter as possible as it may make a difference in some cases and help get a better resolution to any technical problem you may experience.

Hmmm…Uwe may be correct on this one because I had to reboot my computer twice since I finished downloading it. I hope that's the problem. Thanks all for your help!

In fact it brings a major problem concerning the PM button, which isn't reachable easily, compared to the "normal privacy level" . I'm just losing time now trying to thank people who gave me major SBP for my posts (new and old), browsing endlessly through dozens of "snatched pages" at the end of my posts, trying to find their user names and PM button in the snatched display,…..
I use this link when I need to PM a profile that, due to a security restriction, has no PM button.
