Do you know how to download torrents? You need to download a separate program called utorrent, then open that file with utorrent... THEN it downloads the race..

Chill out, it will get there. There is only one seeder and lots of leechers, probably be a couple more hours before more people have the full file to share

MMax.....what program are you using to download the torrents? Utorrent? ( that's what I use anyways )

Also....like what was mentioned VLC works really well. Also....media player classic works to. What type of file does the torrent say it is? What res and so forth?

Got VLC to download just fine, have the icon, etc on my desktop. Trying to download utorrent, the program itself... off of utorrent, and it keeps stopping half way through. So, who knows.

You can go strait to the Utorrent site and download it from there. Not sure on your connection speed and exactly what type of computer you're running....but it shouldn't be stopping. BUT....looking at the link on pirate bay above....there are no seeders as of yet ( nobody has downloaded and started sharing it yet ). You have to be careful with those new files like that....as they haven't been tested and can screw some serious shit up on your computer.

If there are a lot of "seeders" and the download keeps stopping.....the problem is with your internet connection most likely. Hope you get it to work out. Report back here and let me know if you have a chance buddy. I'll try to help if I can.

The utorrent didnt seem to download completely, but it seems to be working, and slowwwwllly downloading the torrent from one seed. Probably from crashnburn. Thanks mister. do they usually download that slow? my connection speed is fast. Fiber optic and quite fast.

my up speed is slow. My ISP caps my up speed at 256 kb/s even though I can get a DL speed of 2 mb/s

Yeah, cause paying another greaseball company to watch it is supporting our sport. What a dunce. Oh... And just so your thick skull gets it... I am planning to buy it anyways, and get up at 0300 or 0400 and watch the races. If it works out. I want to get the ability to watch torrents, so that I can go back and watch the US outdoor nationals, because we couldn't get CBS sports in Canada. So, go pound sand dane.

Okey lets download a torrent the day when no company will air the races... Thanks for that logic.

just supporting our sport like you. Wink Guess that means you will be paying to watch every race too. Even if you cant get it. Thanks for the heads up.

You are asking for the mxon torrents, witch you can get... if you pay for it.

And then you will be able to watch the interviews,quali-races and everything how many times you want.

And you do not even have to start a thread on vital to ask how to push the play-button on their player.

Anyhow i hope you get to watch it some how, since its going to be awesome!

i want to figure out how to download torrents, because i didnt know how. Because.. just as I said... i didnt get to see the outdoor nationals, other than the first motos on some days... because... as I said... I cant get CBS sports here. So, do me a favor... and relax. I am probably still going to buy the mxlife ones, depending on what time I get home tonight, from my sons hockey game. So.... I thought I would try to figure it out, and then I can watch the qualifiers, as I have been discussing on facebook to UK125250 on here... If i could down load the torrent before my sons game tonight. Sooooo... it looks like the download is going to be a bit too long... so it probably wont work. However.... at least I will be able to watch the outdoor nats that I didnt get to see. The supercrosses are on Speed and regular CBS... so I can always PVR them on my satellite tv. So.... now that you are done.... and support our sport single handedly yourself... I will be sure to never do it, right after I get done killing these kittens, and stealing candy from kids.

Max......once you get the torrent thing down.....you'll find out that it's better than sliced bread. Not just for watching past MX races , but movies , shows , and other good stuff I better not mention. You can get some really cool stuff on the torrent sites.

Couple things........make sure before you download , that it's the version / quality that you are looking for. usually the bigger the file means better video quality and so forth.......that goes for just about anything. Also......check for comments on certain torrents to see what other people have to say. Is it legit ?, is it not stuffed with a big fat virus? .....just read what some of the comments on.....and usually try to avoid being the first one to download something unless it's SlickNick or somebody else you trust.

One note on torrents...If you are d/l'ing motocross, something the MPIAA isn't that interested in, you are probably fine. But you go d/l'ing block buster movies that are still in the theaters, and your internet provider will send you a "cease and desist" e-mail and threaten to fine you 3500.00 bucks for each movie you d/l'ed....and the movies that you actually d/l'ed will be LISTED in the email...Be careful Wink

PS: google "news groups" Whistling

O, and Dirtydane, you made me feel guilty so I went and bought the mx-life thing LOL Woohoo
