torrents help
 

ok so i live in north america but there are lots of shows that are available on the channel 4 and bbc websites that are not available in other countries. is there a way around this and if so how?

proxies.

1. this
2. youtube, et cetera
3. download episodes (torrents, shared links, et cetera)

yep

I thought you lived in England? Weird.

I've never tried to access the BBC UK only content via proxies, but I've read somewhere that it's very hard because they maintain a blacklist of UK proxies.

There's a torrent site specifically for UK television/radio programs called UKNova. It shouldn't be a problem to sign up there if you try a few times.

I'm not sure what you're asking... you should be able to download any torrents no matter where you live...?

torrents, yes.
but many broadcasting organisations have their online television content only available in the country they're based in.

I've downloaded loads of BBC content @ isohunt.
Usually a day or two after they get aired -when seeds are still high.

Pokkeherrie, have you noticed that Mininova is virtually nonexistent in Holland as of late November.
Fuck Stichting BREIN!

I think mininova is pretty much finished everywhere now (their servers are located in holland). I hardly ever used it though.

Fuck BREIN nonetheless.

Yeah, mininova dying = godfuckingdammitwhatthefuck

Demonoid is supposedly back but eh..

basically there are some shows that are only available on the bbc and channel 4 website players, there are no torrents for them and i wanted to watch them but they have proxy settings so that if your outside the uk you cant.

if i changed my ip address will it fuck up my computer? also thanks for all the help peeps.

No, it won't fuck up your computer.
I presume that you are on a pc?
Here's a link that might be of some help.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Tokolosh again.

thanks mate!

You're welcome. Make sure to try the first method (disconnecting your modem)
before proceeding with a run. It usually works.

you're getting the basic idea, you need a different ip.
but what you're trying to do won't work, because you need an ip from a different region than your isp's.

that's why you need a proxy server, in this case you need one in the uk.
