Another Q

[JustinRIT]

I've been trying to download the 12-16-02 show (really want it as I was there), first time I got it, 8 of the songs didn't meet verification. So I deleted those, and uncompressed the rest. I just redownloaded one of the 8 that did not work the first time, but the Etree program crashes every attempt. It then creates a *.bak file and a 0 bye winamp fie.

Right now I'm just trying to veryify the one file I downloaded against the md5. Do I have to redownload the whole show.

Also, I downloaded the 8-05-2002 show from the firedancer server, and not a single song passed verification. Am I doing something wrong?

what you have to do is to download the entire show and then use the .md5
strange that the etree prgram doesn't work well, try downloading the software again:

download the MKW Audio Compression Tool 0.97 to decompress and download ShnAmp 2.0 so you can play .shn's using winamp.
I don't think the problem is the show, the shows are fine I guess

I was using the MKACT tool, just couldn't think of the name, is it ok to put in the uncompressed files and just check off that they don't meet verification? Cuz like I said, for the 12-16 show 12 songs passed and 8 did not. I don't have the *.shn files of those 12 anymore.

well the 12 songs that did pass you really cant check again with the md5 since you already converted them. you just have to make sure you download the same show/source and get the 8 files that didn't pass.

i would download all the files again just to be on the safe side but to each his own.


for using mkwact you should go to this page to maek sure you have all of the installation files instead of going to cnet:

also this is a handy faq to read since you're new to shn/md5:
