a show completing before its complete

[He4ther]

I am trying to download 6.18.03 and I am on the first disk, song #10 and it keeps completing itself before it is really done because File Detect keeps telling me its not right. I keep trying it again and again and am wondering if I should delete everything and start over? Since I have started another 6.18 show has been added. I wonder why it is doing this?

what is file detect?

i am having a similar but different problem (is that contradictory?) anyway, i "finished" downloading a show, but while i was converting from shn to wav, i found out that the last few files were not complete. the problem is, all the first files were already converted to wav. so if i open up the ants file to finish downloading the last few songs, it starts at the first song again. i dont want to have to download the entire show again. what should i do? is there anyway to manually download the last few files?

good thing I didn't convert the ones I have already, I was thinking of trying this. I may have to start over anyway, this is frustrating not knowing why this is happening lately.

if you convert the SHN's to WAV you can just convert them back to shn and restart the download.

but why would you convert them unless you are going to burn them to an audio cd

Run the md5s before converting and you won't run into this situation, you will know that the files "ain't right"

I am doing that. My question is, why does the file keep downloading "not right?"

I did run the md5s beforehand, the thing is, this problem is with the 3rd disc, and the first 2 discs already converted from shn to wav before running into my problem w/ disc 3. what program can i use to convert back to shn?

send me the ants file and I will see if i can make it so it won't download the rest of the files... or you can download them manually....
