AMAZING RACE ASIA COMMENTARY
apskip:
Let's suppose that someone had been hearing about torrents and wanted to know how to use them to see a certain season. How could they do it?
First, they should download www.utorrent.com to get version 1.6.1.
Next, they should take a look at http://www.poromenos.org/tutorials/bittorrent/download to learn what to do with it.
The trickiest part is configuring ports. I decided based on some article to try port 53517 for my DSL connection and that works for it, but it would be different for other connections. Experiment to find the right one for you! You may need help here from your ISP.
The next piece of the puzzle is to find the material to download. If you were to look in the upper right-hand box labeled <Search here> on uTorrent 1.6.1, click on the Looking Glass and the list box that opens will give you several choice. Try a few and use the name of your favorite season once you get as the search string. You should soon find at least one complete season in torrents.
Once you find the desired material, just click to start downloading it. The DHT (dynamic hash table) will show up the the bottom of the screen and download and upload statistics will appear there. Seeds and peers (different level of material providers) will start sending you segments, which will be pieced together into whole units. Once you having any whole units, then you will become a seed or peer for other people and uploading from your site will start. It took me 4 whole days to download a set of units slightly less than 4 Gigabytes.
Once your download has finished, your upload should by courtesy be allowed to continue but you can start to play your material. Go to the files tab lower left. Click on the line you want to open and it will start playing. When finished just click on another line and it will play. You can save this material under any folder and name you want.

first time post ....
I have just successfully watched the full season from this below link
http://onlinetvshowsandmore.googlepages.com/theamazingraceasiaseasonone
from episode 4 onwards the site hosting it changes - and the download time is a lot slower than veoh, (the site that's hosting is in Taiwan) but if you're patient it works
enjoy!
p.s. hope its ok to post the link directly up here

:welcome2: to patlini!
:hearts: Oh thank you! I am going to try that right out because I haven't tried bitty torrents yet--I'm letting apskip figure it out first! ;)
But I LOVED the first three episodes and wanted some more!
So if I'm up all night tonight--it will be all your fault! :lol:
We are very glad you joined us!
patlini:
Thanks!!! ;D
not sure if bitty torrents quality would be better, sound is in english but has Taiwanese? subtitles and i found the picture to be just OK. But I could live with it to watch the full series.
And like TAR it is addictive so if you start you can't finish...
georgiapeach:
Well it loaded up really quickly, but it keeps hanging up (pausing) every few seconds--I'll give it another go tomorrow! Thanks again! :kuss:
