Configuring

How do you configure xmule to download mp3 or other files?
Sorry this is the first time I have tried this on a Linux box.
Thanks for your help.

Hi!
What I used to do is go to "search",enter the name (or a couple of keywords) and select the type of file you want (you can choose "audio" and many other things)
It is also useful to filter files according to their size.

However, I've never used mule-like programs in windows, only in linux, so maybe you are talking about a feature which isn't in linux...

That's what I have done In windows. Ok I will try again.
Thanks

Right, I tried that. It says not connected to the server. When I open the server tab- there is a list for filling server name/IP. have u seen similar things?

I think there must be a button saying something like "upgrade server list" or similar (I don't have xmule now in my computer, so I can only talk about what I remember

)
doing that, you'll get a server set, and you should be able to connect (although the first time it colud happend that you need some time waiting...)
I hope it helps

yes, I found that. Once I update it. It does connect. Now what I am worried is the download is very slow. I am on LAN and I can download 10mB in 20 sec or so nut when I download mp3 it takes long time. I also get an error message that I have lowid- check server/connection setting. Do you know how to do that?
I am sure you must be knowing good Latin and salsa tracks which I can download by Xmule. Let me know if you can!!
Cheers

On LAN the router probably does NAT.You need to set it up that the ports for the emule network get forwarded to the IP the machine is at.

I used to need some time to reach a good download speed, how much did you get it connected?

Yes! I remember that, but I don't remember the meaning; I went to the page of xMule, there is a forum, and they explain it, take a look!

Sorry

, I don't like that music

I even don't know singers or groups...

Just a last thing: take care! This kind of program are always a security risk.
