--- Quote ---Again, why do that? --- End quote --- Well, just to clarify my initial thought on it...it would certainly save HD space, as the movies are currently filling 5 DVD's. It would also, in theory, have a preview for every ROM, since it would be generating them on the fly. This means in the future, as roms are added, and others are dropped, the preview movies are always up-to-date. I can't imagine people creating preview movies forever. Although, I could be wrong. :cheers: But the speed comment, and the attract mode issue are certainly interesting hurdles. Although, why would you want to see a preview for a game you can't play anyhow? :P mrC |

To clarify the mame preview set is just under 3GB. The majority of my 5 DVD set are consoles and handhelds. |

Good news everyone - I have been able to convince the powers that be over at [romsite name redacted] that torrent zipping all the vids is unnecessary. So for those that are going to get the vids all you'll need to do is point the torrent at whatever folder you have extracted all the videos to and it'll update from there. No separate folders for each letter. No need to have the videos used in the front end in one folder and another folder full of the zipped stuff for seeding. Just one folder full of avi's - leeching, seeding, front ending :applaud: I think I've almost given up on the idea of separating out the mature vids from the rest of the pack. I may just leave them out of this release all together and put them in for the 105 update. When you start up the new torrent (once it's available), it'll verify the data you have an just update the new stuff - it shouldn't download the whole lot again. If it does then stop the torrent, check what you've done and post here. Moving house on the weekend and may not get broadband for a while so hopefully I'll get this going tonight. |

I never understood why they made you zip those all up, I always used a folder with a bunch of avi's for my sets. Well, good to hear and I look forward to the update, thanks! |
