Pool videos online for free???

can anyone help me with the dcc++ I HAVE downloaded it but it will not connect with the server. It just keeps saying unknown server
 
I always get this message:
--------------------
*** CuteFTP 7.0 - build Jun 7 2005 ***

STATUS:> Getting listing ""...
STATUS:> Resolving host name interpool.dnsalias.com...
STATUS:> Host name interpool.dnsalias.com resolved: ip = 216.221.188.182.
STATUS:> Connecting to FTP server interpool.dnsalias.com:21 (ip = 216.221.188.182)...
STATUS:> Socket connected. Waiting for welcome message...
ERROR:> Can't read from control socket. Socket error = #10054.
-------------------

What am I doing wrong? Or is this server always down ?
 
Colin, it's not an FTP server, it's a DC++ hub. You need a DC++ software to log on. Put "dc++" on google and download the client.

Solartje, thanks for the info. And looking at your screenshot, I seem to be online at the moment :p

Others, I'm one of op's there, feel free to say hello anytime and ask for info if needed.

Greets,
Mikko aka [Fin]buddy

Take a look on my billiards tracker: http://uzhis.homeip.net:6969
Register and you can download.
As a client I recommend http://www.utorrent.com
No waiting for open slots, just download.
I've downloaded with >100kb/s from my tracker and with 400kb/s from another (boxing).

I've been using DC++ for months. Not too many problems. I was trying to use your billiards tracker yesterday to upload but so far haven't done it correctly.:(

There is a link on the trackers' website to a forum. We can discuss your problems there, if you want. Or you can write here, what was going wrong.
 
well I have the DC++ program DL'ed, but I cant figure out how to view anything, or even tell if I have DL'ed any folders from others [fin]Buddy for example.
 
mmm many questions, and seem not all are very used to using this kind of programs, BUT im glad alot have already made it work !!!


ok now the questions:

calcul8or: its not a ftp like mikk0 said, its DC++. hihi funny to see u use cuteftp to connect to it :D find a dc++ program and im sure u can make it work, if u are used to using cuteftp and my small guide.

5ballcharlie: u sure u put the right adress? u can always post a screenpicture here of the error, maybe it will enlighten me more on what the problem is. Dont got enough info at the moment from your part to be able to help u.

Mikko: u a op? cool didnt know it :D gratz

dmgwalsh: i and many others have too. Never had any problem either.

scottster; ill try to post another screeny, and add some info with fotoshop to make it clearer for u. hope u will understand it then.

ok now explanations:

picture1:
Q: where are the files i downloaded:
A:select file - settings - (new window opens) - share (u put a V on the folders u like other people to be able to download) & settings ( u can see in the red circlet 2 places, the top is the important one = this is the place where the downloaded files will be put in if u want to open them later. (feel free to change the folder to a easyer place to find)

picture2:
Q: How can i see what files people have:
A: once on the hub screen (looks like a chat) with names of people at the right, "right-mous-click" and choose there ; Get file list. (on the example i choose miko his file list

picture3:
Q; where can i see all whats happening with my files:
A: i always press the 2 icons on top. 1st one to see a screen that displays all the files that are waiting to be downloaded, or are downloading. The 2d one to see a screen that displays all the files that are finished and put in the folder we named on picture 1

now, After in picture2 we choose do download the file list of finbuddy, this screen will open. U can see , finbuddy has different maps, and one named pool where u can find all his pool related stuff. if u found the file u want, double click the file to request downloading it or press right mouse buton on the file to have other options. (more advanced users, but not needed)

The windows at the botom of this picture, well tell u the status once u choose a file. it will :
A: download, and u can see the speed and how long it will take
B; say; no users online. All people who had the file u wanted went ofline
c: say: no open slots. People have the file, but someone is already downloading from him. 2 options here; 1: wait till he has another open slot for u to download, or press rightclick on the name of the guy, choose 'send private message' and ask him if he minds to open another slot for u. Sometimes they will, sometimes they wont. depends on how nice the guy is.

this is it for today. If there are other questions, ill try to post another screen by screen explanation.

MANY people, give up after 1 second saying 'man this is to complicated blahaha not worth it', i asure u , and u can ask anyone who made it, ONCE u made it work, it IS a treasure. OVER 2000 Gigabite in poolvideo's , books, etc... trust me, IT IS WORTH IT.

Same country, same town

Hi,

Just seen your posts and realize that you live not far from me.
I live in Jette (Brussels).
I suppose that you play in a club?
I often play in LLN (every month, there is a 8-ball tournament) and I played twice the 9-ball tournament at Heverlee.
I play (alone because there are no good players) in a local next to the French hospital (Berchem-Ste-Agathe) quasi every day. It is a 1-division snooker club, with 5 8_feet (I think, no 9_feet, for sure) pool tables.
Maybe could we once play together.
FYI, I am French-speaking. If you are flemish, Ik spreek niet zo good vlaams maar is niet zo erg denk ik?

Bye,
Marc

Hi marc, i live in strombeek, but i know Jette very well, as i went to school there. i never heared of LLN. could u post me a link or give me more info? might be interested in those tournaments. can u give me the link or adress of the local place u play? and OFCOURSE we could play together. i speak 6 languages so french is no problem at al. :D

about club, i dont play in a club yet. i had some proposals from clubs in leuven and others, but I wanted to wait as i got good news. Luc a player from down town jack in leuven and board responsible for the region vlaams brabant, has told me the board has been interested in starting a club that would be part of the BPBF in brussel. Now the problem as u know, is that there arent many good places in brussels and the table quality are crap. for a club u need a minimum of quality. I am going to meet him when he has a day of to visit all the clubs in brussel, check the poolhall for quality and talk to the owners if we find a good club. Once we have found a good place in brussel, that has easy acces we will start the first Brussels club there. Small weekly tournaments, play the national competition (we need 4-8 players). In the national tournament, there is only one player from brussel , me. SO for the moment, im also looking for players in brussel who would like to be part of a club. Im VERY interested in meeting u, and maybe we could discuss wheter u are interested in helping or just being a member of this still to come club. For the moment, i know these people would be interested:
umni , Katja, me, 2 other guys i still have to meet.

pm me your msn adress, so i can add u, will be easyer to talk then here.

i will also give u more info on national competitions, local tournaments, etc etc.

cool u posted this!! cuz i cant wait to start a club in brussel on national level.!!! c ya soon, off to the movies now. wont be back for some days, movie +gf today, fryday/saterday im in Brugges with a friend, sunday i play competition. So ill see u soon after that i hope!!

greats solly

Hi Sol,
Thanks to you and Mikko for the assistance.

I have downloaded the software you recommended and followed the directions given, but I still get 'connection timeout' each time I try to connect.

Do I need a username and password?

What else might I have to add to the connection settings to make it work? I tried passive mode too.

Colin
 
hi m8! :) nice u found this forum, ull love it.


colin: did u not forget to type in the window where u get the message: "/slots 2" without the ""
Probably u get disconnected because u dont have 2 slots open, by default the program sets it too 1. wich most would use to download from others, but then u wont have a slot open for them to download from u, and thats not the point of sharing. (normally u only have to write this one time, the first time u enter the poolhub, it should remember it for the next times.

If thats not it, ill ask around what else it might be, but i thought i had someone say; hi collin on the hub not so long ago... let me know if the slots was the part u forgot or did wrong, or if its something else. Ill try to help u Calcul8r
 
Hey Solly, thanks for your help, I am there and downloading some great stuff.
However, I do need to know how to make everything I download sharable. I have no clue and dont want to look like a selfish "richard".
Thanks
 
Can't Even Download Right

Ok, I downloaded the file but it is a .rar file and my computer doesn't know what to do with it. Seems it should be a .exe or something. Any input?
 
rar: use the program winrar to open it. I dont know how big the program is, else ill put it on my own site for easy downloading

sharing: check some post above, chose file - setting - share (then u put a V next to the folders u like to share with others.

greath more have found the way to heaven :D my reputation will thank u :D
 
interpool.dnsalias.com

I'm on it - using DC++. I've got a lot plenty of videos that I down loaded, a number of really good matches.
 
I've uploaded Moscow Challenge 2005 match on my tracker, feel free to download and to seed it ;) Another way - dc++, Goodwin, Stalev-Stepanov.avi
Its a compilation of a race to 35 match, televised on russian tv.
 
I have tried to get onto interpool.dnsalias.com for the last three days using revconnect, but keep getting connection timeout failures.

Can anyone suggest anything to try?

I am new at dc++
