This thread discusses the Content article: DSoH #255 - guestmix by RYAN MISHKIN

OOOHH THAT FIRST HOUR WAS OFF THE HOOK!!

Especially during Steffen B and Westpark Unit's tracks!
I'm loving this podcast so muchh! Thanks a mil LARS!!

Trying to download both the shows, but the download doesnt work, it closes randomly after a few minutes and leaves me with 6 minutes of the show...

What to do?

I think it might be time for a new server Lars.....

I can't download either show, let alone both together. I know you have put a notice up telling people not to download both shows together but its obviously not being adhered to. Its that or your show has got so damn popular you've outgrown your server! I happen to think its the latter but how inconvenient of them!

I'll give it another go when traffic has quietened down.

Those of you who are struggling to download the shows, try downloading in FireFox, it doesn't seem to crash out like it does in IE.

Hopefully Lars may be able to tell us if there is an issue with the server being overloaded.

Listening to the first hour now.. WOOP!

this is a known issue problem and the solution would be for me to install a local php on my server. I have no clue how long that would take me since I've never done it before and just have so many other things to do right now..

read a bit more about it here... includes a few tips on how to avoid it.. http://www.deepershades.net/forum/site-comments/problems-downloading/view.html

using firefox is mos def. a wise choice no matter what you do on the Internet ..

hey lars......i havent even heard the 255 yet..cuz i am in 251 now....its like watching a tv programme and u don wanna go to the next episode before the previous episode...... ( i am badly hooked to ur shows ...HELP) i have kept my evening free ready with some whiskey and some special cigarettes( if u know what i mean)..to listen from 251...... i just hope your download probs r solved soon.....

yours truly,

deep sarfaraz

It happened for me too but all you gotta do is keep trying and it will eventually download the mix as a whole..

Hmpf, cant seem to find the songs from Mishkins mix, looking for the 3d, 4th, 5th and 6th...anyone has them, or knows where to get them? Pref for free

Cheers.

Lars, I was able to download both shows #254 and #255 to my desktop but when I attempt to import these shows to iTunes to put on the iPod they will not load. Don't think it is user error because I successfully imported shows #253 and #241 seconds earlier. Do you or anyone on this thread know why this is happening?

Girard, please make sure they both have the ending .mp3 and each file has the size of 68.7mb.

could you let me know what error you are receiving? ..

peace,
lars


ps JeanBaptiste, please don't ask for freebies here. We all respect the music and if you like something that much that you're searching for it, you should always consider purchasing it first. Thank you

Thanks for responding Lars. I kept messing around with the upload and now everything is fine. It appears something was going on with the way my iTune's Library was reading the music title. It appears that you are using a different naming convention for the music. Instead of starting off with "Deeper Shades...", you are starting with "#[show number] and then Deeper Shades...". Well this new naming convention shuttled the imported material into the great abyss of my music library. If other subscribers are having issues, this could be one of the reasons. Thanks again for the quick response.

Also, I just want to say that the first hour of show #255 is just crazy (esp. J Tripwire's Deep). Though this is newer music, it really took me back to the 90's in overall feeling. I was jumping around my house like I was crazy. LOL!

thanks for reporting ..
did u have to rename it or did it just end up all the way on top where u didn't expect it to be? ..

I chose the new naming system because whenever I listen to a show in the car for instance, all I see is 'Deeper Shades of House..' if that and could never tell which is which . the new system makes it a lot easier but I don't want the # sign to be taken for some sort of code...

lars

Not sure if it is some sort of code, but because I removed my iTune Library's "Most Recently Added" folder (due to taking up too much disk space) and because I do not normally listen to the podcast because the second hour is not included (maybe I am doing something wrong??),the sorting of uploads in my vast iTune "Music" file/Library is how I find my new music uploads. The fact that '#' is first character really causes a problem. The information is sent somewhere the user would never think of looking especially when a iPod user is new, inexperienced, or use to sorting a specific way because they have 2,000+ songs loaded in iTunes. Maybe you could drop the '#' sign or perhaps use the naming convention "DSoH #[show number] 1st hour Mixed by Lars B. and (for the next hour) 2nd hour guest mix....:" This way at least the upload will be within the alpha-numeric vicinity of 'D' (just above or below the first 253 shows of Deeper Shades). Also, this will allow everyone to see the show number driving in the car. Just a suggestion.

HI LARS...THIS IS SARFARAZ FROM BANGLADESH....I HAD EMAILED U RECENTLY BUT NO REPLY...I GUESS U R VERY BUSY ...LARS THE # 255 WAS SMOOTH.. I STILL DIG # 249 ALOT......I TOO LIKED THE TRIPWIRE TRACK ....AND THE SECOND TRACK OF THE 1ST HOUR .......LARS AS I HAD MENTIONED EARLIER IN MY MAIL. MAYBE U COULD ALLOW DOWNLOAD MANAGER LIKE GETRIGHT TO BE USED ON UR WEBSITE.....BECUASE SOMETIMES DURING DOWNLOADIN THE SECOND HOUR I GET DISCONNECTED SOMETIMES AT 90 %...IF DOWNLOAD MANAGER MANAGER WAS THERE I WOULD HAV BEEN SAVED...ANY OTHER WAY TO TAKE THE SECOND HOURS??? I AM ONLY LISTENING TO THE 1ST HOURS OF ALL UR SHOWS FROM 251 ...NOTHING DOING......WAITING FOR UR REPLY....

CHEERS

Big ups Lars 1st hours track selectiobn is hot!!
thanks for taking me on a weekly deep trip....


Deep Keeps me Moving!!

hey guys...can anyone share the second hour with me .....i cant download at all..........im stuck from show 251 ...i need the second hour.....the way its going. it is impossible to get the second hours............. of any show...the podcast is kool..atleast i can resume the download

Not sure how to share this music, but I am able to successfully download the complete 1st and 2nd hours of all shows to my desktop and iTune Library with minimal issues. Not sure what Lars thinks about members sharing his free music when he offers an entire website?? Maybe you will need to purchase a shirt or something. LOL! However, topdoggy you should first try and download the 2nd hour of show #252 to your desktop music file. After the download, find the file and see if the entire hour loaded (go to the file's Properties). After this, open the music file using iTunes. The DSoH music file should open in your iTune Library. Let me know the outcome. If this does not work, Lars can let us know the rules of sharing. Hey, I am new at this. I just want to be respectful.

Sarfarez ..

how are you?
sorry.. it's been busy.. you guessed right ..

I'm sorry.. can't change it to use download managers.. the server is heavily loaded as it is.. now imagine people each come w/ 3-5 download requests at the same time ..

as for sharing the shows.. I know some people have some torrents going .. look for those .. ..

peace,
lars


ps. oh .. girard.. one more question regarding the # .. are you on mac or pc?
cause I have no problems w/ my mac whatsoever ..

I have a PC but that is not the problem. I can download your 1st and 2nd hours to my desktop without a problem. (I am blasting the 1st and 2nd hours of show 255 from my computer and iPod[PRIMO Material].) It is all about the name change and import to a user's iTunes Library. The # sign prevents the music from being co-located with your other DSoH music. This change is revealed in the embedded title shown in Properties/Detail of the file and not the MP3 download title. The # sign acts like a number (alpha-numberic) in the new naming but your other 253 shows all start off with a letter 'D'. The change is confusing and not user-friendly when someone is used to doing something a particular way. Sort of like someone changes instructions, but never tells you they actually changed the instructions so you keep doing what you always did, but now you are getting an error. I hope that makes sense.

gotcha ..
yeah . .that was actually sort of intentionally..
this way it'll end up all the way on top of the library ..

but I hear what you're saying as well ..
let me think about it for a few weeks

lars

girard1991 thx for ur reply.....appreciate ur concern...well i tried downloadin the 2nd hour with firefox and i got only 4 mbs out of 68.8....speed out here in banglaDESH IS KINDA SLOW.......then i opened it with i tunes.....it opened with album art and all and only 4 mins of music....now what???? can i tunes download the 2nd hour??? ...well what else can i say u guys r lucky ...enjoy the 2nd hour.....

cheers....
waiting for 256 1 st hour ...thats all i can get....

hahhaa..
sorry about butchering your name ..

no .. dope just means it's good .. weed always helps but it also works without ..
iTunes can't download the 2nd hour because I don't offer it as a podcast ..

torrents are probably your best bet ..

heya lars man, i have been wondering, the mix by the brothers vibe, show 253, i saw this other song by i think it was kentphonik, the name of the song is hiya kaya, is this dj really from south africa, coz i didnt think that the dj's from my country were that internationally recognised, but now when i see their song on the guestmix lists, surprises me? is this really the kentphonik from my country? or is it another dj from another country coz if it is i wouldnt be suprised coz da dj's here really arent original, they copy everything, so pls respond lars....an also the song "da screen behind the mirror" by enignma, does it exist here on th e website?

yeah . that is the Kentphonik from South Africa ..
