Does anybody know how to use this version of BitTorrent? I've tried just clicking on the episode that I want, but it only downloads this little thing that won't play on my computer. Do I have to download something to download the episode(s) or am I just having a massive blonde moment or what?

And it's probably a good thing I'm not a Catholic, or I might get in trouble or something. When I rode by the local Catholic church on my bike the other day, I exclaimed, "Holy shit!" at seeing that all the shrubs in front of the building and the Statue of the Virgin had been taken out.

I don't think you need to download anything to download the episode, but maybe you don't have any programs that support avi files, so you might want to upgrade that... RealPlayer works swell. But only the latest version reads avi without any trouble. So you'd have to go to their website and get the latest free version of it. I did that, and it plays really well. Great quality and all.

Also? You rock.

Oh, okay. I'll have to look into that then.

You're very welcome. :-D

Do you have bit torrent on your computer? cause you need it in order to download files.

Also, what little thing did it download? have you tried double clicking on it to see if something happens? I know that sometimes when I save to file, I have to click on the icon to actually get the download going.

Am I making any sense? Which ep were you trying to download?

Going to bed now. My brain hurts.

No, I don't. Where can I get that from?

I don't know. Some, like, 8KB file that wouldn't do much of anything aside from bring up a box saying that it wouldn't play.

Am I making any sense? Which ep were you trying to download?

Yeah, you are. I was trying to download episode #5, "White Rabbit" (aka Jack's episode).

Going to bed now. My brain hurts.

Hope it feels better soon. *send you good thoughts of Alexis and Wesley*

Thanks!

It's getting there. I now have the 'torrent downloaded, the ep downloaded, a new version of realplayer downloaded, and only audio. Argh! :-P

Will probably try to redownload the ep.

I use Windows Media Player myself. You might need to get a codec for your player that you don't have. That's about the limit of my knowledge though. Not sure where you get them from. *g* You might try searching the Real Player site for any other updates.

Good luck!

:-D

I'll look into that. I'm also going to try redownloading the episode, since I had originally downloaded it before I got the new RealPlayer stuff. Dunno if it makes a difference, but it might.

After that, we'll see. :-D

Thanks for your help.
