Rep Power: 0  |  need help? (encoding/hosting etc...) Hey First of, HI  I'm a big fan of TG and FG and even more so of this wonderfull site! So I was wondering if I could help you guys out a bit! Not sure if you need help but I thought it just might offer you some, just in case ... I have a hosting acount that comes with a 2100 GB/month Transfer and my sites only use a couple of gigs a month (at the moment). So, if you ever need another (free) host for this site, just let me know (it's has msql, php, perl, the works)... I also record every episode on my Digital Recorder (Telenet Digital TV, Belgium) and I am able to burn that on dvd (has some minor loss in quality but it's still good) and encode that into something else (divx, xvid, mp3, mov, ...) on my computer. I'll have to do some tests to see if the quality is any good ... But living in Belgium also has some downsides ... i have a limited amount of data i can upload (5gb a month) so seeding it as a torrent might be a problem... |

Car: Dodge Viper (I wish!) Rep Power: 234   | Our static servers have 6TB/mo of bandwidth combined, so we're set. But thanks.  What about setting up a FTP or HTTP file sharing place and post it in the video offers area? We can always use more of those.

Car: Dodge Viper (I wish!) Rep Power: 234 | Well, just check out the current FTPs for examples: http://forums.finalgear.com/showthread.php?t=4574 If you have a box where you can setup special FTP permissions (i.e. like read-only on most/all directories), then that'd be the way to go. Just put some files on there or make an "uploads" folder for people to upload to and you're set. Otherwise I'd just throw some files (perhaps the latest TG episode(s)?) up on your site and link to them via HTTP. For example, like these people do: http://forums.finalgear.com/showthread.php?t=16394
