STAR WARS: the alt.binaries.starwars thread — Page 20

Ahhh, Grabit seems to be very user friendly. I think I'm getting the hang of it...

So I'm browsing alt.binaries.starwars and I want to download ANH classic edition v2....do I have to "grab" every rar file? Or just one?

You'll need every rar file. It's a dvd, and it's larger than 1 gig - so you will need to pay for a newsserver.

(You've already used up a good chunk of your 1-gig getting headers. That's why you want to get an unlimited newsserver).

The rar's are like zips. Use Winrar to extract the dvd.

If you happen to get damaged/incomplete rar files, then use the pars (and QuickPar) to repair them.

Look around other pages of that Slyck guide to answer any questions you have left.


You're going to be shocked at how fast you can download things this way.

One day I found... 10 years had got behind me. Next day was worse.

 

Download  shows from Cable DVR (Updated! Yes, it needs a rewrite, but it's worth slogging through, anyway).

Ok....but just so I know, how many gigs would the average 2hr DVD take up?

Can The "TB release" SE be re-upped by anychance? or upped as a torrent?.

Also depends on compression. If you have a dual layer transfer, that's roughly 9 gig.

I'd very much appreciate a posting of the Lightsaber Montage. My DVDR and backup DVDR of it have CRC errors, and I can't copy either one.

Thanks!

Can we have a Usenet post-a-thon? There seems to be very little posted on A.B.SW

How about the Moth3r versions?

Hi again. I could really use the Montage, if someone could post it, or provide a torrent.

Thanks!

A (the?) "THX Ultimate Demo Disc" has just been posted at a.b.dvdr. Search for "THX_CES", it's 84 rar files. This is the disc that's been posted (covers are on this site).

Star Wars Episode V - Das Imperium schlägt zurück 1080p

NZB:

Star Wars Episode IV - Eine neue Hoffnung 1080p

NZB:

Im downloading the 720p ESiR release now . I would love ze German 1080p captures but since i live in the land down under a few things are limiting me .

1. Crappy 512kb ADSL
2. Even crapper 25/25 download limit
3. Only have a 20Gb USENet account

So if anyone has/is getting them & wouldnt mind burn them on some DVDs for me (i of course will pay postage/dvds ect)

Thanks for the heads up!

No problem.
The original THX Ultimate Demo Disc is a dvd9. Apparently the poster has an original disc. So I asked him if he could post the uncompressed disc. Lets hope he will

Thanks for all the info found in this thread. I'm new to newsgroups and I was able to figure out how to use my Comcast news service to pick up Star Wars at 30. I have a 2.0 gb limit but it should be great for the smaller files.

Can someone tell me how to use Forte Agent to get Wookies WMV 1080p 5.1 Empire Strikes back files?

I got my bellsouth newsgroup server working, and I got on alt.binaries.starwars without any issues.

126 messages are displayed, and no more.

Wookies are not up there.

I really want his HD rip for the Yoda scenes. That way I can use them as ref/and texture files for the 3d CGI Yoda I'm making.
