Rikter, you are a true fan, and I don't believe in true fans usually. Now I need some DVDRs.

First time here, and I just want to thank Molly for her vcds of the OT. They look great!

Well, they're not really VCDs (they're AVI; VCDs are MPG) but they fit on a CD - which was entirely by accident. XD

What matters to me - is just that they work correctly, and they're good quality. XD I'm glad you liked them.

UPDATE - TR47 Return of the Jedi - THE TORRENT

Okay - It seems that my line quality here in my new house SUCKS! - I just did a package loss test and it stuck it tongue out at me!!!

So I'll need to call the cable co. (the enemy ) and have them come replace all the beat down RG6 and even some RG59 (swept tested at 950 thru 2200 MHz!! - RG6 is fully swept tested to 2.4 - 3 Gigahertz ) that's on my roof

20 minutes later......

- I was checking it out (the cable) and it's old, beat-down, faded and it actually feels like the dielectric is brittle (I'm playing with it now and it it cheapo RG6 and some real thin RG59 and yes it is brittle and cracking!!) - THAT and WERE 4 barrel connectors in there so it was really 5 pieces joined together SO I replaced about 50ft. coming INTO my house -

I just tested it again and it WAY better!!

- But I'm sure I'll still have it drop again as it's more then likely the cable from the pole (DAMN - I can't legally do it myself - and my insurance wouldn't cover me )


Well they cam out and the FIRST guy said I was fine...

You see it's bee kinda intermittent so of course it was working just fine when he was here BUT I insisted it was wack.

SO I busted out my trusty logs!!

SO he finally took me serious!

A few hours later his supervisior showed up - HE also found nothing wrong then insisted it was my PC - So I asked could it be two PC's and a Mac all having the same problems????

SO after he took my modem to the hub and tested it there.....

He came back and said he lost 32 packets of 300 AT the HUB!!

I hope they have it fixed buy next week..... SO I may have a friend host it next weekend for me locally.

Again Sorry guys........

But this is WAY beyond me just replacing some bad cable line!!

Rikter, I think we'll all be just so damn happy to get ahold of these films at some point, no one will care if it takes a while. We're just damn glad you're on our side

There's no rush! Take your time! And thanks again for everything!

First time posting...long time lurking .... A big thanks to Rikter and Magnoliafan for their hard work and dedication....
Rikter.... thanks for the torrents, most cool stuff! However.... would it be possible for a mailing of Magnoliafan's edits of the PT on DVD, rather than the hassle of conversion, etc.?

Hey there guys!!!!

I'm gonna be getting offline in a few minutes but I just wanted everyone to know that I REALLY appreciate all the support!

DARN - I've been climbing ladders for who knows how long now....

Like I said I've been having cable issues and they came out and checked it out BUT in the process of "checking" it out the disconnected Corbin's cable!!!

SO at about 8am on Sat. my son said he really really wanted to watch cartoons on his tv so he could also play.....

I said SURE! - I'll hook it back up......

So I set up my ladder - lock the latches, dig it in to the ground nice and snug agaist a railroad tie then as I'm at the VERY top lifting my leg over the roof...

My ladder then decided that after 5 years the safety latches just wanted to give out so the ladder slid/collapsed down on it's self trapping and twisting my right leg and flipping me directly on to the railroad tie head first - I ended up real banged up with a concussion and a massively twisted ankle - they have me on OXYCODONE-APAP and well - I think its time for a nap again...............

I'll get these torrents up as FAST as I can (or my brother )

Later

Riktar, I'd just like to bring something up. I was watching my download of ANH the otherday(awesome remix CD BTW). I haven't been able to burn it to disc yet, so I was watching it on my PC using Media Player Classic. At the end of the first VOB, right where Ben scares off the Sand People using a Kryte Dragon growl, the audio bursts into static. It only goes away if I skip a little forward. I tried it with some other players lying on my machine. Fortunately, BS Player, VCL Player, and WinDVD all played it without a hitch. I've never encountered something like that, so I thought I should mention it. Hope you recover soon.

Odd indeed. I don't encounter this problem with a DVD-R in my player or playing the VIDEO_TS straight on the Mac DVD Player.

Like I said, it only happens with MPC(the best player I've got). Hopefully, once it's burned, it shouldn't be a problem.

It looks like both MF and suprnova are down. Has Lucasfilm once again swooped down to stop the copyright infringers?
