  1. I want a pint also
  2. So what does Sickbeard download from? And what do you use to control uTorrent?
  3. Cheers bart, I'll look in to that. I was going to use a simple RSS feed in uTorrent to scan once a day or so, then use TED to download the torrent after which point uTorrent takes over. Then after that I'll run TVRename to rename everything and go from there, obviously using Task Scheduler to sync it all and automate it. Can I run Sickbeard off the same machine?
  4. A new little project I'm starting on which will have tons of issues but should be great once it's done. The legality of this is questionable so if you aren't a fan of people with eye patches and wooden legs, steer clear. The aim of this is to be as cheap as possible and still be as multifunctional and epic as it can be. The aim: To have a server automatically download all our favourite TV shows as soon as they're out, put them in the corresponding folders, sort them into the right categories, find the right metadata (cast, synopsis, reviews, etc), and then stream them on to any device anywhere in the world. Without me having to click a single button. Here's a bit of a demo of Plex: [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yXTQN-IXxQ[/media] What I've got: Media PC: i3 3220 4gb DDR3 750ti 2gb 80gb SSD 2tb HDD 1x Smart telly. 1x Non Smart telly. 1x Chromecast. 1x Xbox 360 2x PS3 1x PS4 For the actual media server side of things, I'll be using Plex. This is a fantastic server application which has apps for anything you can think of. I can have Plex running at home and watch any show I want anywhere in the world on Android, iOS, Chrome, Firefox, you name it. The Smart telly in the lounge already has Plex installed, so that's one room covered. The Chromecast will go in the telly in the main bedroom so that's another room covered. The Xbox will go in the spare bedroom so that's another room covered. My home internet is a bit rubbish sometimes so I need to get that sorted first. I ordered a Homehub 5 today which I bagged for £37.50 from work, and I bought a couple of Devolo dLAN 650+ homeplugs. I went for homeplugs over wifi because it's not only more reliable, but I can also use Wake On Lan (wake the PC from the sleep state over the internet) which means the PC can go to sleep when not in use, saving a bit of leccy. I've tried some cheap homeplugs before with dire results so I'm hoping that by throwing a decent amount of money at them this time, it'll work. If not, I'll have to run an ethernet cable through the ceiling which will definitely work. Stay tuned for updates!

    2 PS4s

    You'll need two copies of destiny amd two copies of all the dlc. His info is all serverside, so simply logging in on his new ps4 will sync it all. Best watch my language
  6. Welcome aboard mate, always glad to have a new face around here, and there are some really great folks in this community. Add some of us, if these guys are patient enough to deal with me, they're patient enough to deal with anyone!
  7. Nice! He's welcome on the forum too Dave In other news, Siege of the Warmind daily. Absolutely loathe this one, this game could do without it imo. Banged my head against it for 40 mins earlier before giving up. If anyone needs it and I'm on, hop in!
  8. Be strong through these undoubtfully difficult days my friend. This community has brought people closer together than any other site I can think of and FG Family seems to fit the description perfectly. Thanks to Kyle for making this happen and thanks to everyone else for being there for Chris. We're here if you need us dude.
  9. Hahaha, she's a keeper dude! We need to catch up again soon, last time I spoke you were having lady issues, but we'll save that for a proper chat.
  10. Oh sweet, thanks Joe! Loved that game when I was a kid, completely forgot about it until now.
  11. We've been beta testing for peasants for years, we are just so infinitely superior that we don't require recognition for it. How you been Cal? Haven't seen you in ages homie.
  12. Pretty sure that was either in the beta or the first release before being patched. The IB would charge ammo up to a spare mag, but not in the weapon itself. You'd have to reload it yourself. This was changed because reasons, although the fact that you still get two mags of whatever when you change specials still indicates this to be the case. Yes, I read alot about the IB when I first bought the game
  13. About as reliable as it'll get short of buying an official one for $100+. I wouldn't worry tbh. Thousands of these things are sold every day, there will always be a few duds. Just keep a fire extinguisher handy and you'll be fine On a more serious note, if you don't trust them, just make sure they're not plugged in when not in use.
  14. Pew pew baby.
  15. Buy PS4. Buy Destiny. Winner winner, chicken dinner.
  16. Bart has the moast awesomest sig in the world.
  17. Deffo destiny.
  18. Fuck yeah.
  19. I got the nitc as a drop. It has the perk that makes enemies assplode, does the vendor one have that? If so get it, it's brilliant.
  20. Choppy feed is mainly from rubbish connections. All the camera does is look at stuff and tell the PC what it's looking at. The PC then turns it into an image, so as long as you're not running some antique thing, it'll be fine. The only thing that can throw a spanner in the works, is the distance that signal has to travel and what's in the way. We're talking cross continents here, not from a basement to a living room. Any decent 1080p camera will be fine. Of course most webcams are 480p as that's usually what can be transmitted over a longer distance without any issues. "yes but youtube is 1080p" I hear you say. For you and me, yes. But for most of the world, 1080p is a pipe dream that would take a week to buffer, hence why most cameras are 480p. As such, a 1080p camera is a bit more. You could go for 720p, but what's the point in spending all the time, effort and money on your beautiful aquariums, only to have is displayed in 720p? The short version? Buy this.
  21. All done Hit me up when you're ready Bob, more than happy to help!
  22. No Muricans in this thread yet, let's hope some of them can make it!
  23. Happy birthday Lee! Hope you have a good one mate. I will be on tonight, time depends on work. Would love to get a raid in!
