what would be cool is that some one with a tv capture card could record some shows on their computer
eg : star trek stargate andromeda x file s and we could make a huge data base of shows all in divx format avi's or mpeg and icould up load them to my server we would adverstise them and
heh we would have people enjoying the joy of scifi and other shows if we can acomplish it
i got plenty server space now and t would pretty awesome idea i f we could get this together and have people download our art ,pof files and mpegs
we could either stream the videos with a real media player or also people to download them in mpeg or divx format
if we get this off the ground i predict that this will amazing popular just you watch and see
well with you ideas and support this will defintely will be huge success
heh in fact it will be amazing
i think once this whole data base thing in is place and when people or able to watch shows through streaming or dowload
that this will very popular infact imenesly popular so with you help ideas comments help and other wise this could be a great success bar none with your input so pitch in
help me find guys with tv tuners or
you guys could tape them send the tape to me and i could put it on my comp and encode but then heh it wouldnt be digital would it?
so what you think?
will this be possible or just another dumb idea?

Anyway saturn114, how old are you?
-Why do you say you're a network admin without grammar skills?
-Why do you lie that you work at PXO?
-Why must you want to give us server space...which is probably from Geocities.
-Where is this "server" anyway?

go an0n lol

Average Div-X file-size: 500mb, 200mb or 30mb
Saturn's Disk-space: 200mb
Estimated bandwidth required: 200Gb+
Available bandwidth: 20Gb
Ability of server to stream files: None
Server = Too small

lol well i could always get more space i got the cash and i alreadyto told the guy who onws the place and he said icould stream if needed all he has to do is add a module and ill be righton rocking and rolling
so an0n you dont support this idea?
-
Hehe, you wouldn't be able to host a fraction of my colleciton on that :p

...........*sighs*
Seen as everyone else seems to be somewhat lacking in the flaming department, I'll go against all my ethics and make the thread useful.
HLP Policy: Warez is bad, M'kay?

really? geee
is this host fine or do you suggest another one?

Guys this dissapoints me - alright his idea may not be feasable (sp?) but there's no need to start feking flame wars over it. *runs out as battle commences over head*

Woohoo! Conflict!
*sparks up*
**** you vyper
An0n, slow it down. We know it's a joke, but we have some limits... -- Styxx
-
lol an0n you suck shutup and make your self scarce
should i throw in the towel sine no one likes this idea?
and an0n movies are not warez
Please refrain from posting insults next time. -- Styxx

Exactly what an0n said. Redistributing this kind of media without consent from the producers is illegal, and you all know we cannot and will not tolerate talks about illegal operations around here. It is exactly the same thing as discussing warez, and you know our policy on that.
And please don't push it.

Actually... AFAIK, the DVD-Rip, DivX movies are illegal, but I don't believe that the ~200Mb 45 minute episodes are. Heck, people record those off their TV's on to VCR all the time, and that ain't illegal. I think where they make the distinction is a thing called "broadcast-quality", where a copy could be reused in a professional setting with no noticable difference in quality from the original. And since the 200Mb 45 minute TV episodes are of noticeably lower quality than the original broadcast, I doubt they're illegal.
But that is just a clarification and is completely beside the point. This will not be something that we will allow to be arranged using HLP, plain and simple.
