Thanks for creating such an awesome web site!
It is great to see someone applying their technical skills altruistically to create something that helps people.
I have only a minor suggestion that could make usage a bit more convenient in some cases: when an entry has more than 1 mediafire file then a link saying "1 more" is displayed which has to be clicked to get the 2 MF files. What I think could be more user friendly in this case is to have a drop down table like for EmbedUpload to appear on mouse over with the list of separate files for the host.
If there are dozens of files in the list, it is probably still better to have a link to the page with all the file links selectable at once but when there are only 2-3 files and only 1 extra host, a drop down should be a good solution.

Thanks for the comment + suggestion :)
That might be a little tricky due to how I've arranged the data. There's also a slight conceptual issue in how to display the parts (will the "Mediafire" text link to the first part, or be no link at all? If the latter, how do people navigating with keyboards operate it?).
I'll consider it though.

I'd say 'Mediafire' dropdown header could be either not a link at all or link to the full entry page where people can select all the files at once (what '1 more...' currently does).
As for the keyboard navigation, I haven't really considered it cause I didn't think many people rely on it. However in this case they could click on the torrent/entry name itself to get the full page with links. Also as far as I can tell the EmbedUpload dropdown can't be activated through a keyboard right now either (at least it didn't work in Chrome when Tabbing to it).
I know that things are sometimes trickier to implement than it first appears though.
Thanks again!

Never thought of linking to the full page - thanks for that.
No, the current dropdown doesn't work with keyboards (or touchscreens etc - I wasn't really just referring to keyboards) but it's still somewhat usable in that the user will end up clicking on the link. The dropdown, thus, only serves as a convenience for those who can use the mouse.

I guess linking to the full page solves the issue somewhat, although it may be a little confusing as users may have expected something else.
I'll consider it - thanks again for the suggestion :)

I agree with Anonymous suggestion. :D

Well, my suggestion regarding this matter is posting single mediafire folder link that contains all parts instead of posting every MF parts.
It's easy, just create folder for particular episode in Mediafire account, put all parts into that folder, and share/post that folder link. Here's the example: http://www.mediafire.com/?af5ryixu3o1z4 (Inu x Boku SS - 01, two parts in one folder).

Anyway, thanks for MF links and awesome website. :)

Thanks for the suggestion - the main problem is that I believe folders requires an account.
Files are uploaded anonymously so that can't be done?

13/02/2012 05:43 — shadowzephyr

Anonymous? Ahh.. I see what you mean. But no sweat, you still can create folder anonymously. I believe this what you want: http://www.mediafire.com/?8qn5vm67maaxc (sorry, didn't have much time to upload bigger size :P)

After all parts uploaded, click "Return to My Files" located at bottom right, click New Folder and give it a name, and drag all files in there. Hope this helps. :)

P/S: I think anonymous files will be deleted faster compare to those files with account (when they are not downloaded for a period of time). So my suggestion are save those anonymous files to your account, so you don't need to upload again. And the best thing is, free account can do the job nicely ;)

14/02/2012 08:14 — admin

Didn't know that.
But is there really any particular advantage of having a folder over displaying them here?

Yes, they're pruned faster, but there's less risk of the entire account being deleted. Files which go down don't get re-uploaded.

Having a MF folder actually would be the preferred way for people using software like jDownloader since it allows you to download all the files automatically by copying only one link instead of multiple.
I haven't suggested that before only because I thought it's not possible with anonymous uploads which does reduce the risk of having all the files deleted at once. Maybe if the backend could automatically create a new account e.g. every day, that could solve the problem but it does seem like too much work.

18/02/2012 01:11 — admin

I see. Maybe DLC (mentioned a few pages earlier) could be suffice instead?
I'm not too sure about periodically making accounts. I'm taking a look at perhaps periodically trying to refresh links for a period.

18/02/2012 06:40 — Anonymous

Yeah, DLC could also be used for this. And if you change the url of the DLC link from http:// to dlc:// it can be automatically added to jDownloader by clicking or copying to clipboard without manually downloading the DLC file itself (according to this article http://jdownloader.org/knowledge/wiki/...k-n-load).
DLC could have an additional benefit of making links live longer due to it being encrypted.
Another way of adding links directly to jDownloader is through Click'n'Load 2 that can be either encrypted or plaintext http://jdownloader.org/knowledge/wiki/...ssary/cnl2
However people won't be able to use both of these methods without software like jDownloader which is a trade-off.

What's this new host FC (Fichier) thats appeared on embedupload ?.I have tried looking for info but can't seem to see any on it or find any ddl links that are on that site to try it out and see if its any good.

11/02/2012 23:36 — admin

Interesting. I've added it to the EmbedUpload module, but it doesn't seem to have succeeded at all yet...

12/02/2012 23:31 — Anonymous

Okay ,thanks.It looks like it won't upload to it properly though for some reason.I looked for the site http://www.1fichier.com/ and it is french,not sure how long they have been going but i have never seen anyone using it before .

Thanks

why there some episodes of anime doesnt have mediafire links???

11/02/2012 23:36 — admin

Please read the FAQ question: "Is [some file] hasn't been uploaded to [some host]!"

12/02/2012 00:50 — Anonymous

just to let you know, in uploadmirror, the mediafire link just redirects you to the mediafire homepage for some reason

12/02/2012 08:41 — admin

Thanks for pointing out.
Can't really do much about errors by an external host - I'll just have to mark those as bad on this side...

Well, damn. I know Bayfiles had been DDOS'ed a bit last week but by removing it here, I'm left with a 6-month premium account and nothing to use it on :(.

14/02/2012 08:16 * — admin

That's unfortunate. Probably best not to invest in a service that no-one's really using...
The downtime wasn't the reason by the way. Bayfiles are still spitting out errors every now and then. It was originally put in due to it being good for free users (ie no wait times) but that seems to have been scrapped. With not many people using them, one figures it might be better to put the bandwidth to something else...

Hey will you be adding OZC's Big O 720p to the site? They have 2 episodes out now on nyaa. Regardless thanks for all the Rapidshare mirrors, love this site :)

14/02/2012 09:55 — admin

We only get what's on TokyoTosho at the moment.
https://animetosho.org/series/big-o.904

^ Is 720p, but possibly a re-encode.

What's up with the lack of fileserve now days? A couple weeks ago most everything I saw was available on fileserver via embed, but now never it seems.

I am regularly downloading other stuff from fileserve and haven't had any problems or downtimes from them. Premium user here.

14/02/2012 08:17 — admin

Blame EmbedUpload >_>
They seem to be failing on a lot of hosts recently...

If you know of a more reliable multi file host, I'll consider it.

I see you added a new download option ChauThanh. But since their files are downloaded from Animesuki if i am not mistaken and the files are stored on their own servers, so how is it possible for you to upload files to their servers? ( I am just assuming. Though you said files are being match to theirs. ) Forgive my blatant technical incompetence. Just curious. =P

14/02/2012 21:49 — admin

It's nothing more than a filename match ;) Similar concept to how NZBs are matched.
(so it's possible the files don't actually match, but I presume that it usually should)

14/02/2012 19:17 — Anonymous: "Anonymaus"

It would be nice if you could show / add the CRC32-checksum to files where it isn't included into the filename. Using ZIP/RAR for filehosters which cripple the original filename (for example '_' instead of '[') would also be nice to have (and maybe adding a password).

Anyways: thanks a lot for creating this site here and keep on being awesome =3

14/02/2012 21:58 — admin

For point 1, I'm a bit apprehensive about modifying original filenames - my preference is to keep it the way that the original uploader wanted it. Though you did mention "show", so maybe I could make the CRC a little more visible... (if you were already unaware, you can click on a file to see its CRC, as well as some other hashes)

I've generally avoided archives for convenience sake, but I guess mangled filenames are a bit problematic too, so that's not a bad idea. There's a bit of technical difficulty with trying to stream the archive process in the way I'm doing it, but I'll consider it.

Thanks for the suggestions :)
