FAQ

CODEC PROBLEMS:
For those people who can't view some of the video files .avi, etc... or even if there is no sound but video or vice versa.... You need the right codec to view it...
There are alot of codecs out there but I recommend Combined Community Codec Pack ....
Download:

Combined Community Codec Pack

DIVX:
If you have problems with view files and you have the community codec already try divx for files like .avi
Download: DIVX


SUBTITLE PROBLEMS:
Sometimes when viewing soft subs the subs don't show up even with Storm Codec... Use VOBSUB Download: vobsub

HJSPLIT:
HJSPLIT is the program you will need to have to join files of dramas that have been split to .001, .002, etc.
Download: HJSPLIT


FAQ QUESTIONS:
1. Why can't I watch ......002 or part 003?

2. How do I join files?

3. How come I get a "download limit exceeded" message from Megaupload?

4. I don't know how to use megaupload...

5. I used to download with Megaupload and it was fine... Then today, i couldn't even complete a download... it says the download is complete but then it hasn't downloaded all of it... What do I do?

6. I think that links for ____________ has a problem... It keeps on taking me to an anonym page...

7. Why are videos broken down to .001, .002....?

8. What Are Mirrors?

9. What is the difference between RAW, Soft Subs, & Hard Subs?

10. How do I view files with .srt or subs?

1. Why can't I watch ......002 or part 003?
That is because you have to use HJSPLIT to join them together to make them into one video.... When file has been broken down to .001, .003 etc, it is just so the uploader has an easier time uploading...

2. How do I join files?
When you are done downloading the files make sure that all of the files are in the same file and have similar names. Then use HJSPLIT to join them together.
* You Don't Usually Need To Change The Names Since They Are Already Done For You*

3. How come I get a "download limit exceeded" message from Megaupload?
That means you have already downloaded too much and you need to wait until your time is over. Or get a premium account so then you can download as much as you want...

4. I don't know how to use megaupload...
Megaupload is a site that is really easy to use... when you click on a megaupload link you will see that one the top right corner there is a series of letters/numbers that you need to enter... enter the letters/numbers and it will go to another page where you have a countdown on the bottom right corner... wait for that countdown and there will be a button that says download... press it save it and you are now downloading...

5. I used to download with Megaupload and it was fine... Then today, i couldn't even complete a download... it says the download is complete but then it hasn't downloaded all of it... What do I do?
Try the following things:
Delete all temporary internet files
Delete all Cookies
Delete all history
Restart your computer
Disconnect then Reconnect your internet
Unplugging you modem then start again
Reset your modem
After doing some of these you should be back to normal....

6. I think that links for ____________ has a problem... It keeps on taking me to an anonym page...
Nope there is no problem with that link... Anonym to is just a code that the uploaded use for the links that ensure that people from other countries can access the link... all you have to do is remove http://anonym.to/? from the url so you are left with http:/www.megaupload.com/?d=9VOPQMI3. The link you have now should be the link to the episode you are trying to download...


7. Why are videos broken down to .001, .002....?
It is broken down so it makes it easier to upload and download. And just incase something goes wrong you don't have redownload all over again

8. What Are Mirrors?
Mirrors are alternated links that you can download with just incase the other link expires....

9. What is the difference between RAW, Soft Subs, & Hard Subs?

Soft Subs: are subtitle that you will need to download the sub file to get the subtitle... They are separated files that your computer will have to incorporate in while the video is playing... You will need to have a matching RAW file and Subtitle file... Remember sub files don't work will just any RAW video...You might need the Storm Codec and / or VOBSUBS for this type of subbing... To download the two programs please check our FAQ's post

Hard Subs: are subs that have already been incorporated into the video... There is no need to download the subs for these type of subs for that they are already included in the video...

RAW: are video files without any subs at all...

How do I view files with .srt or subs?

01. You need to download the whole video. If it means that the file is split into .001, .002, etc. download all of them and then join them with HJSPLIT ( Can be viewed at the top of this page).

02. Make sure you have all the codecs. Some computers don't view .avi and other video files without the required codec. I recommend downloading DIVX for avi, and community codec for someothers.

03. If the subs don't play with the codec than download VOBSUB.

04. If the subs still don't work then you will need to rename the videos and the .srt.
First make sure you have all the files in the same file or on desktop.
Then rename like the example.

eg. Boys Before Flowers.avi
Boys Before Flowers.srt
