Hello,

I have a few questions.

1) What is the diffrence between NSTC (something like that) PAL and USA which in next to files that you download in their names?

2) I believe that to have a complete DVD (like that one you would buy in store, with the extras) you would need to download the full DVD-R which is usually around 3GB-4GB in size. Correct?

3) If I burn a DivX or AVI file to a dvd would I be able to use the subtitles? Or is that only available with the full DVD-R's?

Thank you,
Fade.

NTSC/USA are formats for most North American contries and PAL is for other countries.

Most torrents will have an NFO file with it when you download it or the download site you get the torrent from gives you the information what kind of movie it is and what has been saved and what has been edited and what subtitles are listed. etc etc.

So try getting the information on the torrent file before downloading it or start the torrent and then make the NFP file high priority so you can download it quick and open it and see what your dealing with.
