Guest andrew531 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Is it possible to do this if so what would I need and is it slow or quick? Or should I stick to doing it on my laptop. I currently use utorrent and pirate bay or btjunkie. Thanks for any advice

Oh right, my bad... you know, I just assumed... you know... that you download pirated stuff... but why cant you just rip the dvd's?
Guest andrew531 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Oh right, my bad... you know, I just assumed... you know... that you download pirated stuff... but why cant you just rip the dvd's? I haven't got the software and the knowledge. Maybe one day

Guest andrew531 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Post above mine.. And what? This is what is posted. Thanks I will have a look at & Let you know what I think. The reviews are pretty bad.... I've downloaded an app called download any file which inbeds itself in your browser and I'm gonna try ttorrent.

If you want to keep your original apks as new.
Guest chealsearock Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 All right. Have to go now... get myself ready for 2morrow.
Guest nicholson101 Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 I have used adownloader (Readily available from the market) for torrents and its great! works well with plenty of tweaks to increase speed/organise files. Check it out...
Guest xathras Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Is it possible to do this if so what would I need and is it slow or quick? Or should I stick to doing it on my laptop. I currently use utorrent and pirate bay or btjunkie. Thanks for any advice I use tTorrent in combination with OpenVPN. The free version of tTorrent (tTorrent Lite) restricts you to a maximum d/l speed of 250kbps and two torrents downloading at the same time. The paid version has no maximum d/l speeds and no limit on numbers of simultaneous torrents. In the preferences tab you can choose from a number of popular search engines. You should be able to download at the same speeds as on your desktop machine since the limiting factor is the speed of your internet connection. On my 50Mbps Virgin cable service I've had speeds as high as 800kbps using tTorrent.
Guest warriorscot Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 There are a few that work well mostly just a case of trying different apps and seeing what you like. Its handy if you are stuck somewhere and really need a file but mostly I just use the online interface from my home PC to access things like utorrent and sabnzbd and my stuff is waiting when I get home or I can stream it from my home pc if I want. Thanks! I simply download backups of DVDs that I have bought because I am a collector and do not want to ruin my originals!! Oh right, my bad... you know, I just assumed... you know... that you download pirated stuff... but why cant you just rip the dvd's? You can rip pretty easy with programs like handbrake but its actually easier to download as you get a rip done by someone with a fair bit of skill that will rip it just right. Its also in my experience quicker than doing it yourself and doesn't tie up your PC with a processor intensive conversion. It takes 45 minutes on a fast PC for a half decent rip and your PC will be useless or 30 minutes downloading and you can play a game while you wait if you want to.

I've downloaded tttorrent but when I click on search its says 'transdroid search not available, click to instal' But when I click to install it tries to look for something and it says unavailable? Any ideas?

On my 50Mbps Virgin cable service I've had speeds as high as 800kbps using tTorrent. That sounds pretty slow - on our 12meg Sky connection we can regularly see up to 1.2Mbps. The main Ubuntu laptop at home got corrupted part way through the upgrade to 11.01, so put tTorrent (lite) on the Vega, downloaded fine.
Guest mxbob Posted July 5, 2011 Report Posted July 5, 2011 Not exactly the answer you were looking for but…. I managed to download torrents directly to the vega in Ubuntu (using the “Ubuntu 10.10 the easy way” thread method to run ubuntu) using transmission The speeds were actually better than on my desktop (this may of course just be a fluke because a lot of people were seeding) Bit of a long winded method compared to running an android native app for torrents but it was surprising how well it worked
Guest le_lutin Posted July 5, 2011 Report Posted July 5, 2011 I wouldn't look past aDownloader, which is free from the market, has no speed limits and has an integrated search built in to the client (it uses btjunkie.org i think).

It takes 30 min to download a movie? What quality? I get blu-rays, so how long will that take? To download...
