I know there are not too many Pulsar/Luna/Mac users out there. There is one thing that PC users can be not familiar with (and Mac users, as well) - I don't know if it's php or html or something but if I use Netscape and want to download a device, project, preset or just look at a .jpg before downloading I meet with a problem of 404 error. Only if the path name contains a space (for example - .../forums/images/nice picture.jpg). Using Internet Explorer everything's fine, no probs. You may ask where the tip is:

1. PC users - post your files witout blanks (for example nice_picture.jpg)
2. Mac users - use IE rather than Netscape while browsing PlanetZ.

I posted a music file. I did not see it appear on the forum. I posted a file before and saw it. Maybe I did something wrong this time? Is the size of file limited?

I'm on a PC using Netscape 4.x-6.x-7.x, but I never encountered this problem. What version are you using?

Netscape 6.2.3 seems quite good and stable (major bugs corrected), but 7.0 PR1 is worthy of being checked. Dunno about limits for uploading files on PlanetZ, anything found in faqs?

I believe the limit is around 8mb for uploads -- this is not configurable by me. It's the webserver which limits http upload size. Anyway, if your file is bigger than 8mb, you should encode at a lower bitrate, or just submit an excerpt -- filespace here is not inifinite!! :smile:

Cheers,
