    For those that missed the game

    I recorded mt first game on dvd and wanna share it. But i've never uploaded anything that i didn't download first.. I use Azereus but i think any bittorrent site could work... If someone walks me through it i'll share it. If it works i have no prob hooking up Bills fans in the future :)

    How large is the file?

    I have yet to get into recording & burning DVD's. I need to update my ass into this century I suppose.

        Interesting. Well I wish I could help you, but I will definitely be checking back on this thread.

        I would definitely be interested in catching future games if you make this a habit. I was pondering buying a DVD burner in the near future anyway...

              I use The Pirate Bay. It's a good site and pretty easy to upload torrents. It's out of Sweden so they do a good job of staying 'untouchable'. For a good laugh...scroll down to the bottom and read the legal threats. Supposedly they have never removed a torrent from their site.

                Bittorrent is definitely the way to go for something like that. There are new clients out that don't require you to use a third party site to host the torrent file, but it's probably not necessary.

                You might want to look into compressing it down though - 3GB is a LOT of file to be sending around.. You could put it in divx or xvid, or windows media format and keep the quality pretty close to what it is now, and cut the file size in half (at least). DVD is in MPEG-2, which is years and years old, so it doesn't compress nearly as well as the newer formats. Of course, most DVD players won't play those files, so they'd be watching on their computers.

                    I'm sold on compressing the files. Care to help me out? pm me...thanks :)

                      Get with the times. I've fried the laser on two DVD burners already, and the beauty is they were still under warrenty.

                      Unless they convert them to AVI them turn them into MPEG-1 files then transfer them to DVD. That's what I do with ALL video files.

                            I've never really had the use for one untill lately when I have started messing around with making my own movies.

                            Other than that, I always either buy them or watch them on Demand. I'm not really into the whole downloading movies fad.

                            Maybe I'll ask for one for Xmas or something.

                              How much? Shipping & handling? Where in Mass are you, maybe I could just pick it up!
