local downloads

Post by trillianrose » Fri Jan 02, 2004 9:06 pm

I never had a problem before, and I havn't downloaded any local files in a few weeks, and then all of a sudden I get this message:
"ERROR: You are attempting to download this video too soon after your last download attempt."

So I waited a few days and tried a different video and get the same message... What's wrong?

Install a download accelerator lately?

Hey trillianrose,

You will get that message if you attemt to download the same video within 60 seconds of your last attempt. This is meant to stop "download accelerators" by limiting the connection to the video storage server to one connection per video download. Unfortunatly, this may also interfere with some download managers. Turn off these "assistants" and the download should work just fine.

Phade.
