I've had the same problem with certain players and mpgs too, and other file types. VLC wouldn't play them, QT, and some others. Usually, with the combo I posted earlier the file will play for me in one of those players or through QT/Perian. Try some of the free SWF/Flash players for Mac too, like SWF & FLV Player.

RE: Mac User Trouble Playing .flv Files
I've been using Perian for a long time, and it's still working fine. Perian is a codec pack that adds file support to Quicktime.
http://www.perian.org/The download link is after the "A notice to all of our users and supporters", and further down it shows which file types are supported.
If something doesn't work in QuickTime, I try VLC, then Mplayer Extended with the addons if I have to. Usually 1 of those 3 work for me. -
RE: Proxy.sh VPN Provider Sniffed Server Traffic to Catch Hacker
Pffftβ¦I wonder which "activities that are harmful to human beings" went on.
Did some naughty little internet bully make little girls (the daughters) cry on facialbook or twitter -lol?We have decided to install a monitor on our Illinois 1 node so as to locate the hacker. Few hours after we announced this move to our public, the hacker came to us to apologise. We then completely removed the Wireshark installation.
This situation shows that we are actually really not logging anything and that we will always tell our members when we have to log one of our nodes or our entire network, either for maintenance and small internal affairs such as this.
ahhhhuh, OK, sooooo⦠??? :laugh:
Wow, glad I never gave them any of my money. At least they have "ethics". ::)

RE: [Edit Torrent] = You are not allowed to upload more pictures
@p90:
Are the torrents you're trying to edit older than 7 days?
Users can't edit any torrent if it's over 7 days old.
You can send a message to the helpdesk with your desired changes for any uneditable torrents you encounter (7days+), and Staff will make the changes.
They are, might be helpful if the message said that rather than an unrelated error about pictures
What is the reason for this restriction?I will poke the helpdesk with the changes
True.
The reason is that some people had tantrums, spazzes, tizzies, hissy-fits, bouts with paranoia, etc and went on deleting sprees deleting ALL their uploads.
The last straw, ages ago (like around 4.5yrs ago), was when a Mod had a falling out with other Staff and did it too. After that, he got deleted himself -lol.@p90:
I will poke the helpdesk with the changes
Depending who's at the help desk, can I poke too?
You probably can, we have some Staff that are available to "ASSist" you. :laugh:
I won't be bending over the help desk tho. -
RE: Losing Chat Rights
It's really up to those who gave the ban, but I don't think you're permabanned.
Staff don't normally override another Staff members decision without going to them first.
Just chill for a little while and I think the ban will be lifted sometime soon.Congrats offending F00F, didn't think it was possible <kidding>.
What ever you were saying in chat, you might want to tone it down a bit.
In case you didn't know, F00F is a Moderator so you might not want to flame or offend him. ;)</kidding> -
RE: How to Search (to avoid duplicating)
Hash searches could be handy for sure.
You might try sorting the torrent list by size and match up the file size and look in that region of the torrent list.
"Sort by" -> in the pull-down menu.
Maybe run another search on 1 or 2 of the keywords in the file name as well.It should be easy to find if your file(s) are either rather large or small. You can edit the end of the url to jump to the mid-section of the torrent list or wherever else you need to be if the necessary page isn't linked to on the search page immediately.

RE: The dark ages of nazism reach Russia - gay raids
Yeah, so sad. I couldn't imagine what it'd be like to be trapped in such a place. So stressful and depressing!
I've read a lot of news about assaults/gay bashings happening over there since the new law took effect. It seems to encourage it. Well, it does. Not much is done about the bashings either IIRC.

RE: My new bengal kitten
Yep yep, cute!
Hope they stay cute and don't bring the house down later. :laugh:
I was reading about Bengals and found a perfect cat for Riddler (minus the price, so expensive).
They are called Toygers, google images that!
Look like tigers but basically tabby cats. ;D -
RE: Beards Keep You Young, Healthy & Handsome, Says Science
My facial hair was 90% grey at 27 and that's when the hair on my head started turning grey.
I'm 45 now and I'm not completely grey, but about 70%.
My step dad's uncle was bald and grey at 17. Β His senior year highschool picture looks basically the same as he does now. Β Now he has wrinkles.
I've got more grey coming in now on my head to feel defeated, no more plucking for me -lol. My beard doesn't have as much grey in it tho.
WOW, what a double whammy for a 17yr old! I had a friend that went bald at 20. Went into Marine bootcamp receding a bit and came out bald.
As long as I have a fair amount of hair and can dye it a natural looking color if I feel like it, I'll be alright. I'd have to wear a hat all the time if I went too bald because I'm fair skinned, and I HATE wearing hats. Well, I'd rather be grey than bald personally -hehe.
I grew a six-month beard for fun,last year . ;D
Not bad.
Mine would be crazy by 6mos. After a couple/few months I start getting comments and jokes that I look like the young version of Santa, or lumberjack jokes, and whatnot.
The Santa jokes don't bother me. Almost everyone likes Santa, right? Β I get a lot of compliments, and some people telling me to trim it or shave (lol).
After a while tho, past a certain length, it gets annoying so trim it. -
RE: Beards Keep You Young, Healthy & Handsome, Says Science
It's all true, especially the handsome part. :laugh:
I first let mine grow for convenience because I was so busy with work all I had time for was eat, sleep, work, repeat.
It just grows too fast and thick, and so does the hair on my head. People trip saying "I thought you just got a haircut and it's already back?".
Not that it's ALL there on my headβ¦I'm receding a bit.By the time I was able to grow a full beard, it was grey.Β I was about 27, so that was a no go area for me.
raphjd: Did you go grey all over young? My BF's son did. He was salt and pepper in his 20's, now he's 38 and mostly all grey.
Grey or salt and pepper can be sexy.ΒI actually have never grown a beard beforeβ¦just peach fuzz.Β Even my moustache doesn't grow as much hair, nor my chin.
I really envy people who can grow a beard- but at least I got hair on the top of my head that's really thick.
I had a friend like that, he could only grow hair on his neck and under and on his chin.
Dunno how old you are, but it might thicken up as you age.
I used to have very thick hair on my head. I'd trade ya some beard for some head hair if I could. ;D

RE: Why have all Dominic Ford uploads disappeared?
GayTorrent.ru assumes that all uploads by its users respect the rules until we're informed otherwise by a report or copyright infringement notice.
Basically, just follow the posted rules in the Rules section (blue menu bar) if you want a guideline. -
RE: CF Torrents
I highly recommend using a VPN as well. It's better to be safe than sorry, and you can have peace of mind to share whatever you want.
Most VPNs offer their own clients/programs to make setup a breeze. Many build protection into their clients in case you lose the connection to the VPN.
The protection blocks all internet connections while the client is running but not connected, until it can reestablish a connection.Here are lists of trustworthy VPNs. Note: towards the end of the article it lists VPNs "who log, sometimes a lot".
http://torrentfreak.com/which-vpn-providers-really-take-anonymity-seriously-111007/ http://torrentfreak.com/vpn-services-that-take-your-anonymity-seriously-2013-edition-130302/
Private Internet Access is very good and you can't beat the price, they're practically like half the price of most other providers.
They offer all the features other VPN providers do, and in some cases more.I prefer VPNs over seedboxes because I have a decent upload connection already and like the many other protections and features VPNs offer.
Why worry every time you upload and/or download? Just get a VPN.

RE: IRC Gateway 0.2 beta
just tried that, and it ticks itself back onβ¦.
Did you make another change at the same time?
If so, try one at a time. Some changes don't take if others are made at the same time for some reason still, maybe, AFAIK. -

RE: The Global Divide on Homosexuality
Thank you for this interesting survey.
I find it sad how much the US trails other countries in acceptance. It's not terrible, but I'd expect more in such a "free" country.
Then again, there's too many religious nuts.
