MAME Intro Movies 106 *out now

Circo:
I have never zipped my sets, and hope I never have to, the real advantage at [romsite name redacted] is bandwith and longevity.

NIVO:
hey fellas just wanted to drop a line that I have completed nonworking vids as well. So we will add this, so that when you select a nonworking game, it plays a small clip stating the game doesnt work. This will be the last pack we add after all letters are added and completed.

Anyone?

The torrentzip operation is a one time thing only. cdbrown basically changed the internal structure of the torrent to make it smaller.
For next releases of the torrent, you will simply have to download the "new" torrent, it will check what you already have and download what's missing.
That's what [romsite name redacted] does for ROM torrents for example, so you don;t redownload everything when a new version of mame comes out.

I personnaly like it even though it's a pain to go through it the first time. People that have downlaoded nothing yet don;t have to worry about it either.

jcrouse:
Yeah but how are supposed to use the AVI's when they are zipped up. Roms work when they are zipped, video's do not. We will need to manually unzip each and every file. What am I missing here?

I download everything on a different machine from my cab, and I usually zip everything for archiving anyway, so this format doesn't bother me, but I can see your point.
