Description: Including a question about torrent.

I've got a torrent that has all the DB episodes up to When Opposites Attract, and right now I'm downloading the Return of Drakkus Part II. (57.7% done!) Anyway, when that file is done downoading, will I be able to easily get it into WMM? Of all the files, I've only checked that one off. I can use that even if none of the others are downloaded, right? And how would I get it into WMM? What happens when it's done downloading? Note: This is the first time I've ever used torrent.

I don't use WMM (nor do I ever intend to), but I believe it can handle any movie format for which you have a decoder installed on your system. All the episode downloads I've seen are encoded with Divx, so as long as you've installed that (
www.divx.com) then it should work.
You should be able to start using any particular episode as soon as it finishes downloading. There will be a menu item or button somewhere to import the media to your movie project.

Furox is right, anything you have a codec for should work. I got my eps off a P2P network, and had some serious issues publishing them (see my help thing in the help forum), but I want to try converting them from AVI to DivX. By the way, would you happen to know a Linux compatible WMM sort of thing?

Well, they're sort of different things. AVI is a "container" for video formats while DivX is a codec. Most of the AVIs floating around are actually encoded with DivX, but an AVI file can contain just about any codec.

A google search for "linux movie editor" turned up several possibilities. Whether any of them are any good, I don't know. You'll have to try them and see.

:) Thanks. I should have the episode downloaded by the end of the week. (Hopefully.) Can't wait to attempt my first DB MV. :D :dance:

tell us when u make 1! i would love to see it! :D I have never tried a torrent before. thats probably why i am missing 5 or so episodes. my MV making is stalled b/c of it. :( i usually download them seperately.
i really need to find a different MV maker insted of windows movie maker. WMM keeps freezing on me. I hope you have better luck with it.
