    Very good stuff.. The intro could be a few seconds shorter though?

  • dnA

    Here’s one question to a problem!!!. My college has somehow blocked torrent downloads. not the p2p bcoz skype works perfectly.

    1. has not blocked downloads of torrent files, nor the sites.

    2.peer list not shown.no peer connected.

    3.gateway server is red hat enterprise linux. v.4

    4.squid installed as proxy server.

    5.trackers works fine. shows peer.

    6.can download files on http connection

    7. Alternatives used: torrelay.com works fine. but ssh like freedom works but can’t facilitate torrent downloads.

    8.tried with other port numbers of client softwares. different client softwares used. wyzo, bitlet neither works.

    9.dth:waiting to announce…….shows different at different settings.

    10.torrelay works perfectly but not willing to shell out so much of my pocket money.

    anyone having a perfect knowledge of the situation plz reply me.

  • Anon

    I wish I could download Stasia IRL.

  • dnA

    some points left out.

    11. used utorrent .establish connection with peers as seen in tcpview:sync sent.
    12.sometimes error shown at one setting: cannot connect in more than one node.
    13.always shows 0(45 etc.)seeds or peers connected.
    14.dns used: institute’s as well as opendns.
    15.it maybe using satellite internet connection.
    16.gateway server decides my ip owned by the college. m not under a proxy server.

    I Have been searching a solution for one year. Torrelay is a relief but can’t shell out money anymore.

    @dnA

    Enable Protocol header encryption and use port 80.

  • dnA

    @stalker

    have used it previously. no result. anyway thanks for ur reply. shows the message below. maybe coz 80 is using my web browser

    [2009-05-05 00:42:24] TCP port bind failed 0.0.0.0:80: (10048) Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted.

  • MArtin

    Oh my god, thats really lame torrentfreak TV – especially the rotating logo:)

  • dnA

    back

    17.regarding trackers: http works fine but udp trackers are shown as invalid url. it happens always at all settings.

  • P2P Worshiper

    @DnA

    My guest will be that your college has a CISCO or a SONICWALL Hardware firewall, that is a standard stuff on most every school/college, an they are pretty effective against downloading or P2P.

  • hiphop

    This doesnt tell us anything NEW, it just has somebody read us the articles we have already read, almost word for word.

  • P2P Worshiper

    @DnA
    Btw. P2P is not the same as Skype, this what’s is different is the inbound traffic that gets blocked by the firewall.
    by the P2P traffic there are many users that are connecting to your client (PC), but by the Skype you got max. 1-4 and by accepting a call in skype you are actually making a connection whit the incoming caller/traffic request.

    Nice work, another great TF-TV episode. I love the new format for the show, and this is a great way to get all the news that I’ve missed. Loving it :D

  • Anno Mc

    But how do they record the audio to cams?

  • Rick

    @hiphop
    True enough. But the video can get a lot more people involved by getting onto video sites.

    I just caught this on Miro. Congratulations on the best production yet. Nice set, good clean graphics, and Stacia’s really getting the hang of it.

  • JE

    am I the only one who thinks Stacia is a fox. Damn I’ll share more than files with her…

  • hmm

    what were you wearing on your head?

    just curious :p

  • Adoprio

    @21 I’m curios about that too ;P

    Nice episode! Keep the good stuff coming…

    And Stacia, you are really hot! Wish we had some nice newsreaders here in The Netherlands.

  • Devilwish

    Nicely done. The main problems of the original have all been taken care of.

  • Anonymous

    If you think she’s hot you sir must have some pretty poor looking wommens in Netherlands.

    She’s a pig dog… nice norgs though, I’d rub my cock in those and she could give me a BJ but I wouldn’t let her near me otherwise, EEEWWW

  • What

    Whats that on ur head?

  • Hollywood !

    Hi there, great show! Finally something original!

    And ehrm: can you do an investigative piece on why BREAKING BAD 2×9 (four days out) is nowhere to be found in the torrent community? It aired on Sunday.

  • iFox

    :) Thanks for the news Torrentfreak TV. :)

    I agree with the shorter intro comment though. Just a few seconds shorter.

  • NubCakes

    @27: “And ehrm: can you do an investigative piece on why BREAKING BAD 2×9 (four days out) is nowhere to be found in the torrent community? It aired on Sunday.”

    Did it air on Sunday – I dunno, I’m not in USA.

    No need for an investigative piece if it did though: what happened is that no one from the scene capped it basically. Almost all TV caps come from the scene – it may have been capped by a non-scene user and uploaded somewhere as some trackers have their own cappers, particuarly for HD encodes.

    If not, well, you may have to wait for the DVD rips.

  • NubCakes

    Re: Breaking Bad s2e09: there’s a lowish quality torrent uploaded at Demonoid, ripped from some web site. Apparently has sync issues and is low quality: 241MB

    Funnay how so many clueless noobs at this site spout off about how “elitist” and screwed up the scene is when almost all content comes from the scene isn’t it? LOL!

  • oh dear!

    this was crap, I mean really bad.

  • NubCakes

    OK, now there’s

    Breaking Bad S02E09 XviD UnKnownSoldier

    and…

    Breaking.Bad.S02E09.HDTV.XviD-Delta9 ,

    both normal xvid quality up to scene standards, not sure if delta9 is scene but unknown soldier is definitely p2p.

    enjoy

  • OMG LOOK AT NORGS

    This isn’t a newsreader it’s a pair of FUNBAGS reading the news.

    NORGS FTW!

    Damn I wanna cum all over her face and norgies!

  • seekingtall.com

    ^A^Would you like to date an open minded girl? Yes, I’m that girl. I like handsome guys. I have a blog in the web—seekbi.com—Guys, please join and find me out.

  • Hollywood !

    Thanx there, NubCakes! I was beginning to wonder who’s d*ck I had to suck to get this episode.

    Still don’t get it why VTV and or EZTV didn’t upload.. but there you have it.

    For the record: I ain’t no clueless n00b and I have never complained about the so-called “Elitist scene”, screwed up or not. You won’t hear me complain about a scene that uploads the files I love to download. Nothing but respect and thanx for those who take the time and go through the trouble to please their fellow torrenters.

    Thanks for helping a brother out, Nubbie!

  • Bitloner

    Yo what up america I wanted yo know what you guys think about people reacting towards the Pritatebay court case. I hope it sparks a revolution, and for this to start changing peoples minds about downloading(piracy). Fuck the MPAA peace out

  • thatsodd

    Is she wearing a hairnet??

  • MPAA

    Could she do the next ep naked? I think it would be better that way and get more viewers.

  • Nea
