HELP PAGE AND FAQ

Q: What does MU, RS,... mean?
A: These are fileservers where you go download the videos.
MU: Megaupload, RS: Rapidshare, MF: Mediafire, SP: Sendspace, SOA: Share On All (doesn't work anymore).

Q: How to download from Megaupload?
A: It's easy: just enter the 3 letter code on the top of the page then hit the download button. On the next page wait the end of the countdown (usually 45 secs) and click on the link that appears.

Q: Why do you keep using Megaupload and not Rapidshare, Mediafire or other fileservers?
A: Many reasons for that:
You can upload 1GB files on MU whereas RS is limited to 200MB, 250MB for SP, 100MB for MF.
Most NBA games now are 1GB or so, if I used MF I'd have to split the file into 10 rar files and this is rather a pain to download.
I have a better upload speed with MU and with MU manager the uploads don't fail like sometimes with other file servers.
To sum up I use:
MU for full games
RS for files between 100 and 200MB
MF for files under 100MB, highlights for instance.

Q: Where are the direct links?
A: As requested by my server provider, I had to remove all "illegal" content from my server, especially large files because the amount of bandwidth was disturbing the health of their servers (...). I might upload daily highlights again though.

Some links are broken, how come? Can you reupload the files?
All download links beginning with www.bballvideos.com/... don't work anymore for the reason mentioned above. The ShareOnAll site, which I was using a lot early 2008 has closed. Filefront links (from 2007) have been deleted by the site.
As for reups, for most files I'm affraid I can't. I don't keep games on my hard drive for lack of space so I can't reupload them.

Q: Why NBA highlights are in .flv format?
A: NBA.com changed their video page and highlights are no longer in asf format, same for ESPN videos. When grabing tthem they come out in .flv (flash) just like with the Youtube site. These files can be converted to avi sometimes. If you got problems playing these videos with your classic player, I suggest you using the total video player

Q: Why don't you make game torrents?
A: I don't know how to do this actually and there are already torrent sites for that. If you prefer torrents files go to these basketball torrent sites: DAVKA SPORTBIT SPORT-SCENE.

Q: Can you upload this or that game? Why don't you answer my request in the shoutbox?
A: I upload the games myself with a speed of 60-80kbs or so, thus I can only upload 1 or 2 1GB games a day. You can understand I cannot answer every request and I make my choice upon player performances, team matchups, game results but mostly upon availability. If a game has not been ripped I can't rip it myself (most of the time). I read all requests in the cbox so if I don't answer consider it means I can'fulfill it.

Q: Do you rip your own games?
A: Most of the time no. Living in France and I don't get the chance to see NBA on (non-cable) TV but last year I've ripped few games from NBA League Pass and also some games from french league. I'll try to rip some again this season.

Q: What game will you upload in the upcoming days?
A: I don't have any idea. I'll upload games among those been ripped and posted on torrent sites and forums.

Q: I have a question, comment or suggestion concerning the site, how do I get in touch with you?
A: You can simply email me at bballvideos@gmail.com
