Re: What media player(s) does Caltrops use?
[quote name="Lizard_King"]torrent software: <a href="http://www.utorrent.com/">mutorrent</a> With it, you open torrent files that you find by going to google and typing "whatever" .tor or "whatever" torrent. The torrent gives you the information you need to connect to everyone else who has the item already or is in some stage of downloading it, and you toss pieces of it back and forth at each other until everyone catches up. All you have to worry about is right clicking and limiting the upload to 25kbs to avoid having it hog your connection, and remembering to delete the torrent off of mutorrent when you are done. TV shows, for instance, have a fairly straightforward system of organization where show x episode 12 season 3 can be found by "torrent x e12s3" or "torrent x e12s03". That changes a bit with private torrent servers, but I don't have any invites for any that are worth a damn. The best way I have found to watch random internet video is to upgrade to windows 7 RC1. All at once, every last piece of bullshit about codecs was dealt with preemptively by media player. Other than that, I'm sure someone else can do a better job than I can of recommending a codec pack. And I use Itunes for my ipod, so I'm definitely in no position to recommend alternative media players. [/quote]
