It does sound like the guy needs to learn something about customer service, but you should be keeping your own backups, AppleS. I see all the time people complaining that a host lost their backups or won't give them their backups. If the only "backup" is one that your webhost holds, you don't...

They provide the server, unmanaged. It's not their fault you can't get it working. It's no different to any other windows machine, and avisynth doesn't need any hardware support. There's no reason it shouldn't work other than misconfiguration. Try asking on the avisynth forum rather than...

Cheers knowinservers, thanks for keeping us all updated. :)

Awesome replies, thanks folks. :) I intend to upload a few mirrors of any uploads, so it's good to see there are several hosts worth using.

Change your dns at namecheap to use Afraid's DNS servers. (and set it up on Afraid too) http://freedns.afraid.org/ http://support.easydns.com/tutorials/DNSsetup/section01.php

I've never liked codec packs. Seems a bit pointless considering that with 3 or 4 separate codecs you can play everything. Is the file corrupt? What does mediainfo say about it?

I'd wear a watch that could receive tweets or RSS feeds, but I don't see much point in it otherwise. I don't like being constrained by schedules so I pretty much do my own thing. If I need to know the time I'm never far from a clock or a computer, a TV, a mobile phone etc...

I've read a few horror stories about PPD hosts who try to stiff you out of legit earnings. Fair enough if you're making referrals for yourself, but if you've followed the rules and done nothing dodgy, you should get paid what you're owed. As a new uploader, what hosts should I be uploading...

Ok, so it can't decide the video. It's AC3 with XviD so install decoders for both of those. XviD is already installed because you were able to view the thing in MPC, so it looks like you don't have an AC3 codec installed. Install AC3filter and ffdshow and you should be fine.

Firstly, there's absolutely no point having both your nameservers point to the same IP. If it goes down, it goes down. Secondly, is there even a DNS server running on that IP? I don't see one.

The problem is probably that the RDP virtual display driver doesn't do DX9, it's entirely software based. Go into the MPClassic settings and change the renderer. That should sort it. Directx has nothing to do with your avisynth errors though. If the filters aren't installed, install them.

So you're currently running at a loss, losing $27/month?

I'm interested in helping out in a few days' time. Busy right now, and wouldn't want to commit to it when I don't have the time. In a few days I'll have time though.

Yeah, none of their sites are working, including support. VPS control panel site isn't loading either. VPS is up, just pretty broken. Tons of packet loss, and transfers failing constantly.

Get a grip mate. There's as much chance of you being a competitor trying to trash their reputation as there is of me being associated with them, trying to "astroturf" as you put it. I've nothing to do with the company other than being a customer who paid $25 a few days ago after hearing good...

http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/www.vuzehosting.com Site's down, and VPS TCP connections keep timing out.

Not if the shared host was on NetDirekt. NetDirekt is the problem here. http://188.72.233.134/test/100MB_TEST.bin There's another test file on a different company's ND gbit VPS. I was getting 50MB/sec from it to .UK a week ago. Now I'm getting 600KB/sec. It's a pain in the arse that ND are...

When it's downloading from torrents it's downloading from multiple places. When you're downloading from the VPS to you it's one thread. Use more threads if you can, use a download accelerator etc. Could also be that your isp doesn't have good routes/peering to .DE - not much you can do about...

Linux people are fine with command line on a server usually, they're not interested in using X or anything similar.

ssh in, check out top or htop and see if something's using the cpu, what iowait is etc. Is it a dedi, vps, what? If it's increasing at a specific time, do you have any cron jobs set for that time? Or if it's a VPS, perhaps others sharing the same physical hardware do.
