Putting Torrent downloads on DVD

scottyboy1973

Hi there
Ive got this friend (:-)) who downloaded a few bits for his kids using Bitcomet. He now wants to put them on a DVD but cant find them anywhere on my his hard-drive??

Any advice most welcome. I also saw a notice on here where a few folk said that uTorrent was better? Any thoughts welcome?

Thanks a million (on behalf of my friend :-)) - S

Jesus. Could you just man up and say they were illegal?

I mean apologies if they're not, but with all this 'nudge nudge, wink wink' stuff. You're not really going to get any decent replies on here.

(Careful now, down with that sort of thing, etc).

Ok............suppose I'll bite.

You'll probably have to do a search for the files (insert smiley). Just put in *.<file-extention>

For example if I wanted to find ALL word files on my machine I'd just put in *.doc and hit enter. Once you know what the filetype is you can do a search that way.

Will BitComet not tell you where they are ?

Utorrent is indeed very good. Some trackers won't allow BitComet to connect.

Bitorrent is better make sure your ports are open you can do this on portforwording.com ,bitsoup and isohunt are good sites for downloads

Think you should get uTorrent mate.
All downloads will save in: C:\Users\User\Downloads

Faster too.

So the wierd thing is that I can find the isohunt torrent links but I cant find the actuall files (that are hundreds of megs in size??)

I am reasonably computer literate but jaysus, they are buried somewhere?!

Try starting a new torrent. I'm not familiar with BitComet, but it should give you the chance to select which files in the torrent you download, and where to store them. Cancel the torrent and look for the files you want in the same place.

Or you could search for *.avi of say 600MB+

tman

Most torrent apps let you right click on any downloading/downloaded torrent and choose to open the containing folder - therein be the gold!

Isn't bittorrent identical to uTorrent just a different name and slightly different logo? Both are from the same company.

Or check the settings in BitComet to see where the default save folder is.

BitComet sux, not only do other clients limit uploading to it( because its 99% leechers ), but its just a rip off of another torrent client, i think its Azureus( i.e. Vuze )

Use either
1. Vuze - but set it to the old fashioned gui
2. uTorrent - its good but ive gotten use to Azureus so i just use that.

have a look in C-program files(x86 if you have a 64bit os)-bitcommet,check and see if there is a folder called downloads in there

Yawns

Unless his friend his removing the torrent and the file instead of just the task

Wink Wink nudge nudge


Down with that sort of thing!
