Is there a moviepack containing _all_ the speedruns on this site?

No, but ZeXr0 uploaded all the AVIs on archive.org (MKVs were rejected though), you can just throw that list into a suitable plugin or download accelerator. http://www.archive.org/details/TASVideos_Nes http://www.archive.org/details/TASVideos_SNES http://www.archive.org/details/TASVideos_GENESIS http://www.archive.org/details/TASVideos_GameBoy http://www.archive.org/details/TASVideos_GBA http://www.archive.org/details/TASVideos_N64 http://www.archive.org/details/TASVideos_SMS Maybe these aren't *all*, but > 95% is a reasonable guess. Note: you should download the "cinepack" version (*.avi), the other versions are transcodes made by archive.org, and they suck.

Please bear in mind when downloading that some very recent runs aren't included in that list. Similarly, a large amount of obsoleted runs aren't either.

I uploaded the most recent AVIs, but of course they don't appear in ZeXr0's lists. If sprite wants he'll have to look for them in the main list (and/or just use the torrents according to what is faster for him).

Yeah, my "95%" guess was intended as "95% of non-obsoleted runs". The obsoleted AVIs/MKVs aren't obtainable anyway from the main site, so I excluded them by default. On the other hand, some obsoleted movies still have an archive.org link (either mine or ZeXr0's).

Is there someone that can make a list of every movies that missed a movie on archive.org ? That way I could redownload them and upload them

I tried creating a combined torrent file of every avi/mkv currently on the selection… but for some reason any torrent creation program I've tried fails at it. :-/

I think you shouldn't bother, I uploaded the most recent movies, I doubt there are any gaps left. Also they're taking an "all MKV" route meaning that archive.org mirrors aren't possible anymore.

"They"? Also, archive.org does not support MKVs?

While I haven't tried myself, I actually did see some .mkv files on archive.org a while back: http://www.archive.org/details/MetroidEchoes_17p_155

hum I don't really know Archive.org and it's pretty hard to figure out what to do. mkv files got deleted and I don't really understand out it works.
Though ShinyDoofy's post makes me wonder that maybe ZeXr0 was doing it wrong. I didn't check it out myself, I will do some testing. And I swear, this is the last time I take someone's words as true without checking :\ edit: ok, ZeXr0 was doing it wrong. I assumed he was right and I didn't bother to check. My fault. MKVs can be uploaded on archive.org Here's the first one: http://www.archive.org/download/smb1fds_tasv2_happylee/smb1fds-tasv2-happylee.mkv More to come, I guess. I'll upload Lemmings next.

Is there a way of adding those MKVs to the "folders" ZeXr0 created? If so, it'd be great to see them in there so have the whole package for all of a console's movies.

He has to upload them again, I guess. Unless someone can contact an archive.org administrator and see if it's possible to move them now. I don't think that's needed though, the most important thing is to have a working mirror link on the movie page. Either way, I'm still uploading: http://www.archive.org/download/sneslemmings_tas_lordtom/sneslemmings-tas-lordtom.mkv Since you're a publisher you can add those links to the movie pages :p Also you can add the youtube links uploaded by Flygon... He's been uploading everything recently.

actually, i was just uploading the movies by FTP. That's all, so if there's another method, maybe the files must be uploaded individually to work ? In any case, it didn't work for me while uploading the movies by ftp
