Title: ape files
Post by: cederwood on August 12, 2006, 12:08:54 PM
Hi Nick, How do I post an "ape" file, I've tried, but it did'nt work, do I have to compress it first.

CD,

When you make an ape it should compress...that's the idea. So if your original is say 30 meg, your ape would be around 20 or less.

If your upload speed is slow, I think you will have trouble posting anything over 25 to 30 meg...and it will take a while.

What size is the ape you made?

Nick

8467KB---Original size (21167KB)---Compression 2.4 to 1 (40%)---Channels  2---   Don't think that's too large, I've mastered the WMA files--thanks to you mate, it's just when the "ape" is finnished it looks like a square icon.

8.5 meg should be fine.

Try it and give it some time. Go get some coffee!
