this is the first time i've ever downloaded a p2p. i've got kazaa lite ...put my music and vids in a shared folder.

are my files being shared and anyone who searces will be able to download them, is it that simple.

or am i missing something? how do i upload...how do i know it was succesful?

You're doing everything correctly.Leave the files in your shared folder.

and if you want to direct friends, family or anybody else to download certain files in your folder create some hashes http://doa2.host.sk/help/sig2dat.htm that work with kazaa lite.

You'll see when something's being uploaded (unless you have it set to clear completed uploads, then you might miss it).

There's 2 ways to upload lots of stuff:
1. Have stuff in high demand.
2. Have rare stuff. (Meaning if someone wants it, they have to get it from you)



I've got movies, music, all sorts of stuff. But it's always the absolutely freakiest thing I happen to have on my hard drive that gets shared the most.

if you have many files - 1000 for example - uploads would start
normally faster... cause it is more possible that someone needs you as
as a source :)

Do oyu mean you have a .avi file burned to CD? If so just copy it into your shared folder.

just copy it from the cd/dvd into your shared folder, and if format/file extension becomes a question, theres some decent ripping software floatin around, just do a search in the forum

IF u mean full DVD-R I never knew anyone to share them on kazaa cause they are so big but if u mean just a regular movie just put them in the shared folder (Default C:/My Shared Folder) check options if u don't know which one is your shared folder, then u would have to make a hash (Read the faq to learn how) because noone will know about that file unless u do that.

Ok what your are talking about are the actual dvd files. No one wants to DL 7 gigs plus off you just to see your movies. So what you need to do is rip the movies. That means getting just an imgage of the movies. This will be playable on most video players on our pc's. Example Winows media player. You really should Rip movies before sharing them...example a dvd movie that is 7 gigs can most of the times be ripped to 600- 700 mb.

does that make sense?

since no1 has really explained it yet.. :rolleyes:

upload is others downloading from you

it doesn't happen unless they want to download from you.

dont worry, if you make it, they will come.

or something like that :blink:

If you can't upload faster than 4 KB/sec (32 kilobits/sec upload limit in KL++), don't bother setting Max uploads greater than 1. :P

For 56k, it's best to put MAX uploads to 1 and upload bandwidth max to 24 kilobits/sec (3 KB/sec).

In *ANY* case, disable optimal bandwidth while idle/extra upload bandwidth while idle.
