What takes a long time is hashing the 6000+ files I'm sharing - takes a full day.
Oh shoot, there are so many versions here I am confused. Which exactly is the version you consider the best?

I put a lot of programs on other drives, especially if they require a lot of setups and customization like eMule. That way if I have to reinstall Windows, I just need to make new shortcuts, not start from scratch. Most programs can be installed wherever you want, and others give you no choice, but you can often manually move them and they still work.
eMule users have been fighting lowid since eDonkey days. In order to go peer-to-peer, both sides must be able to communicate together, but eMule uses non-standard ports (communication channels) so you must be able to tell your router to open them. If they can't be opened, you must do peer-to-server-to-peer. Besides being lots slower to make a connection, what happens if you're on different servers? What happens if the other server has a file listed that you want but your server doesn't? I think you can see the problems.Night457 wrote:I have read with interest if not always full comprehension the ongoing conversation you have had with emuler about LowID issues.

Sadly, I have lost my eMule "friends" and now I have to make new ones.
6000! That's some serious hash.
Be aware you must have received the first blocks or nothing will display, and if the last blocks aren't there, VLC will want to rebuild the index - don't let it. Making these subfolders also keeps you out of the eMule program folders - less likely to break something.I clearly have been well-brainwashed to act as if what Microsoft thinks best IS best. Now that I state it outright I realize how ... silly ... that is, sometimes.Phuzzy4242 wrote:S L A P ! You're so silly!
Boy, do I feel dense: My first reaction was "What?!? What do you mean by "point [files] to it"?" You mean a Shortcut? After some Googoo searching, I guess you are referring to Folder Redirections / using Libraries, right? Naturally I have used these because MS uses them ... but never understood why I could not see the full pathname, which always vaguely bothered me. My brain can remember where I have put something in endless nestings of subdirectories (because I have created this nesting with a relentless logic of my own), but Libraries defined by Microsoft that point "somewhere" annoy me.To make your life easier, you might consider creating a folder called something like "d:\eMuleIn and point Incoming Files to it, and another called "d:\eMuleTemp" and point the Temporary Files to it
I'm pretty sure Ghost is referring to this one:Night457 wrote:Oh shoot, there are so many versions here I am confused. Which exactly is the version you consider the best?

No, stop eMule, create those folders where they're easy to get to like the root - the top level - then go into eMule's Options > Directories and change the "Incoming Files" and "Temporary Files" to the folders you just created. Then move the files that were in eMule's original folders to the new folders and start eMule up again. You only have to do this once but it makes it a lot easier to find the files that have finished downloading, and also the files that HAVEN'T finished downloading so you can preview them.Night457 wrote:Boy, do I feel dense: My first reaction was "What?!?

I will have to think about this one. If my brain can wrap itself around the concept of a Library that *I* have created, then I will be able to use it. Otherwise, I just have to keep following the path: Top folder, Open / Next folder, Open / Next folder down, Open ... etc etc etc. Hmmm, I think I am beginning to see the advantage to your suggestion ... I think I like it ...
Thank you, deadman! I now have the Italian / Spanish .avi you listed, which was extremely well sourced. While I have the Deleted Scenes separately in various versions, I don't think I have a version with them included in the movie itself, so I am also getting the VHS version you listed just for fun. It is also well-sourced.deadman wrote:I'm pretty sure Ghost is referring to this one:

There's also another one, picture quality not quite as good but it's uncropped 4:3 and contains all the deleted material as part of the movie. About as close to an uncensored version as I've seen:

The 100 minute version is still impossible for me to find in stock. If it exists anywhere, maybe it has stuff none of us have seen before.

At that I said to myself, "DUDE! He is even older than I thought!"I've been around long enough to use 110 baud teletype.
Couple with that the detailed Internet and eMule technical discussions of yours I have read, I knew there was all sorts of Computer Stuff you knew that I did not - and my misunderstanding on this particular point made me think you were talking some Old School Computerese that I have either forgotten or never learned in the first place.The VHS version I posted a link to has some coming attractions previews at the end so even that 100m version is probably shorter than it claims. The film clearly still exists at the studio since they were able to do a DVD release (despite it not being the best quality). But with the conservative culture these days it's unlikely we'll see a remaster anytime soon. Too bad. This is one of those films you know damn well has cut footage that would drop jaws to the floor.Night457 wrote:I am convinced any super-long home media versions are just scam fan-edits of previously-released material all run together. Original film prints may very well exist in some European film collector's attic. Dreyer's uncut version of the silent film "The Passion of Joan of Arc" (lost for decades) was discovered in the closet of a Norwegian mental institution, so there is hope for "Piccole Labbra" yet.
