You should really consider using a newsreader that supports .nzb files - like NewsBinPro.

.nzb files can be found from various places and those files contain everything you need to download what you want.

When it comes to ISP providers... I don´t think the retention and completion is on the level you need. You must change news provider. Giganews is what I have been using for years. They now have retention up to 200 days (they will build up that from 100 to 200 days during summer and fall). It will cost you $25 to get those Wookie 1080p ones but I think it´s worth it. Just cancel your subscription after the download.

Just ask if you need any help

if i remember right the dvd only has web docs in it with a menu. i do have the limited edition and have watched it once. i have to watch it again and "report" back to you guys. and i do consider it to be official release so please dont ask copies

here is the publisher link: Insight Editions and the book itself: Dressing a Galaxy: The Costumes of Star Wars.

btw: They also have: Sculpting a Galaxy: Inside the Star Wars Model Shop and it has a dvd featuring model shop documentaries the same way Dressing does. i can review that too.

... another coaster... why is it so hard for me to burn this thing?

I have downloaded MoveAlong´s posted RTJ off the usenet. Unpacked it and watched it couple of times - great work.

But... "Tried" to set the layer break at Cell 17 using PgcEdit (which gives the break at 1567440). ImgBurn verification gives errors at that point on. PowerDVD won´t play it on my pc. Standalone dvd-player (Pioneer or Philips) won´t play it.

All my friends that I have send this to have HTPCs so all I needed to do was send two DVD+R disc with rars and pars to make it happen. Now some of them want burned DL DVD+R disc (as so do I). Since I have had bad compatibility with just making DVD-ROMs out of DL Movies, I tried - once again - to burn this. But no no NO!!!

Tell me, please tell me, why is this so hard

Oh one more think. Noticed something that is no biggy with HTPC systems. Some of the text gets cropped off since my tv overscans +5%. I can compensate that from nvidia settings. Just wanted you guys to know that since I don´t remember this being mentioned.

Fans who grew up with the original trilogy and the poster campaigns that advertised them should enjoy the new menus devised for the bonus discs bundled with the original trilogy DVD singles being released on September 12.

8/29/2006 StarWars.com
On September 12, fans will finally be able to see the original unaltered Star Wars trilogy on DVD, including the saga's very first sequel, The Empire Strikes Back. The theatrical versions will only be available as bonus discs bundled with the original trilogy DVD singles being released on September 12, for a limited time only.


BUT...

9/5/2006 StarWars.com
On September 12, fans will be able to return to the theatrical experience of Return of the Jedi as they remember it from 1983 when the original unaltered version of Episode VI is released on DVD for the very first and only time.


wonder where on this list will the official releases rank?

REQ: a program for verification

Does anyone know a program that could extract needed information from a torrent file that could then be turned into a .csv or .sfv file? So... in short - Is it possible to get the checksum info from torrent files?

I hate to load the torrent file to my client when I want to check if my backup it still ok. I need this "feature" for dvd burning from usb-hdd backup >> hdd >> dvdr.
Well I could make my own .csv or .sfv file after the initial download but just wondered If someone already had made a nice program for this.
