whosarahre Posted April 22, 2005 at 04:28 AM Posted April 22, 2005 at 04:28 AM ok small story first... i've been downloading the 2nd anni. special Operazione Trionfo 2002 Italy now every night for the past 3 days with my flashget and it was estimated it would take 19 hours to download. m2v is particularly hard to download. anway i got to 5 hours left i was gonna finish tongiht when of course it goes offline. this has been happening more and more often. if it is possible to make m2v as zip files could i suggest posting the zip file versions. it makes a world of difference for people like me any possible suggestions for me? i have 56k aol dial up, and i use flashget already. thanks Quote http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v243/whosarahre/photo68.jpgI'm gonna love you forever always together, you'll never be far away from my heart
Bellamy Posted April 22, 2005 at 04:40 AM Posted April 22, 2005 at 04:40 AM zip, rar .. compress file types won't help to media file size, cause media files are already compressed formats. there're 1% filesize different the most, sometimes will make filesize even larger. and zip, unzip large media files take forever. so we don't want to zip files. only few videos are time limited offers, the rest will be online for a very long time. and this topic belongs to "Forum News, Help and Feedback" section. topic moved.

AllCeline Posted April 22, 2005 at 12:13 PM Posted April 22, 2005 at 12:13 PM (edited) That's right. Even if the videos are zipped, it won't make any much of a difference. I don't even thinks it takes away 1MB. And I've found that unzipped files are not any better because they take up more space on your hard drive. How? Well, once you unzip the video, both the unzipped video and the zip file take up space on the hard drive. I used to have dial-up before I got a high-speed connection, so I know how it can be. It'll just take some time. Stick in there!
