shakie- you have been into the gc scene longer than me, and i am glad i found someone to bounce a couple of questions off of- i bought my bba and pso less than a month ago- i started by using phoenix, but found that the ripping tool didn't work (am using Gamecubeserver- works flawlessly), and then tried the new starcube loader a couple of days ago and found that a) it is easier to run the loader from command line, and
i couldn't see any difference in performance with the new starcube loader- but i only tried it once and selected 100/full. anyhow- i have a couple of questions i hope you don't mind me asking since you are more knowledgeable with the gc scene than me-
- my readings have shown that the 'nic speed' is set by pso, so this is either false, or the new starcubes ability to adjust the speed won't work with pso- i thought they had developed the adjustable settings to take advantage of either a 100Mb game or a modchip, both of which didn't exist yet---your take?
- what is starcubes' thoughts on why streaming audio and fmv's wouldn't be helped by the additional bandwidth? what is the factor that is missing?
- where can i find reliable documentation on the media that GC uses- or can you quickly share what the media is ? i see all the stories about the console reading discs from the outside in, etc, and i have never really seen anything that seems to be consistent and widespread.
i hope you don't mind me hijacking this thread with these questions- but they are all semi-relevant. thanks!
