download a few more clips from eccles's site. you don't mind me host them right?
Will do this by the end of next week. The dail-up (no boardband to new home) started to buck me.

After having my available bandwidth sucked dry by a couple of download hogs, I've moved my repository to FTP, where I can better control who gets what and how fast. http://www.snikte.net/RX-8/ will give you a link to the FTP site.

hi

I could catch the german commercial of this great car:

Mazda RX-8 - German TV Commercial (http://4all.andreas-kuetter.de/videos/mazda.rx-8.-.german.tv.commercial.dvb-rip.by.achilleus.mpg)

For quality reason I leave it in the mpeg2 format.

sorry for my bad english ;)

takahashi
01-25-2004, 03:33 PM
achilleus

I can't see it in any of my available media players. Please convert it to a user friendly format!

Want to see it bad ... thanks mate!

>> Since then I have download the MPEG - 2 codec and can see the clip

It is great... I try and see if I can convert it to more user friendly format and share it in my site - if that is ok for you

achilleus
01-26-2004, 09:26 AM
hi.

it's a mpeg2 format withe the dvd specification. (i recorded the dvb stream.)

I'll make one or more files in an other format, too. That's no problem. ;)

nice collection of videos you got there

Senna

I've downloaded many of the videos from your site Takahashi, but I've found the quality of the German commercial was best while the others were not very good.
Any reason for this...is anyone else having a similar problem? And is there anything I can do differently when I save to my hard drive that would help the playback quality with Windows Media Player.
Thanks btw--the vids are great otherwise!!

takahashi
02-11-2004, 02:54 AM
as listed in the site... there are different bits rate of all the videos. Some are long and will make it over 10Mb if taken in 300kps... I think the German Ad is at 600+kps (kilobyte per second). It is due to limited space in the server and I don't want to host my server as I don't want any body to heck my hard drive. At least this way, the hecker will heck a remote site.

If you want full version Senna I can mail it to you as long as you can provide me the mailing cost. P/M me

Alternatively, you could try my site: http://www.snikte.net/rx-8/

I have not recompressed anything, but I dont have them organized and labelled either - it's just a stockpile of everything I've collected. If you know what you're looking for, give it a try.

Which are your favourites?

Give it priority and see if i have extra space to blow it up a touch! :p

takahashi, post the full versions your videos to http://www.my5minutes.com ... it's a new video hosting site, 5GB of space, free to upload/download.. there's only one video of the 8 in action so far which i just uploaded... http://www.my5minutes.com/displaymedia.php?pos=-274

takahashi
03-01-2004, 07:42 PM
it forces you to download their spyware... I am not sure it is good for other viewers... but I risked to install it and download your clip. Thanks.

I think I will stick with the smaller versions... I am just as happy to mail the CD to you for full version but I am not prepared to pay for the mailing fee if there are 100s of requests.

Cool, but what spyware are you talking about? ABC, the bittorrent client that they suggest using is just a bittorrent client... no spyware from what i can tell...in fact they are an open source project. you can use any client out there... Shadow's experimental, the original python client, just do a google search...

as far is this good for users? hell ya it is! they've got super fast download speeds and 5GBs storage space!!! so why would you even think of using your own hosting account to share huge video files and pay for all that usage?? anyway...thanks for the collection, perhaps I'll leach a few videos later and post them up there myself when i get some time...

Sorry bandwidth is reached and the feature will be on in full version end of next month... thanks Taka

takahashi
07-26-2004, 09:23 PM
Thanks to Choppy from surrenderonline.com.au that I have this fast server but it is costing too much to put the whole version in.

Thanks to Choppy the server is running again. You don't get this unless you are an RX-8 owner ;).

I am planning to shorten the clip to get the juicy stuff rather than the whole thing. I will take time and be patient ok ;)

Hey I have the new full version of the feature clip on the site. But it is password protected, for those who want it, a bandwidth purchase of $10 for lifelong password so I can put it up and share the clip in a fast US based server from surrenderonline.com.au (Choppy). It hurts to see you not able to download it and I can increase the bandwidth to 6GB per day with your help - that actually cost an arm and a leg if you do not own a server you know!

100mb of clips uploaded but I cannot share to the world as I only have limited bandwidth. People who have paid for me the extra bandwidth have password to download.

I have the Top Gear + Fifth Gear review. Both with very decent quality.

Quite a deal, ask everyone for their (free) clips, then ask one and all to pay $10 to see them!

Ballsy!

takahashi
10-10-2004, 02:00 AM
Coz you are not paying for hosting them Felix!!! extra 1G trasfer = $2 and you guys like 15G/day :o - so are you willing to pay for that - US$10 is so cheap!

Don't tell me about bittorrent coz it is not an easy way to share. Too slow, yes it is free but most of you want to access them all the time but not when I am uploading aren't you. Just look at the top gear site.

People who gave me the video will get a password so they can see the rest - when only 30 people sharing, I can cope with the bandwidth. Not 100 per day!!

Anyway the newones are free so watch it! :D. I might just password protect them when it is way out of my capability to pay for the bandwidth.

thats the same one with the feed rx8 correct? I just purchase that vid... can't wait supposedly the feed 8 runs with taller gears, i think imo the feed 8 would perform a lot better in the tsukaba attack compare to the ms rx8

Feed lost to Dream factory Japan with I think Kei office 3rd and Autoexe RX-8 last.
Feed suspension is not as good as the Dream Factory one

Feed RX-8 raced with Z before in a Hotversion LONG>>> time ago. In last years edition or something
