Some Questions

Hi there.

I have some questions about somethings. 1st, i uploaded some movies (and before anyone starts calling me a morron, yes i read the posts, and understand the rules, etc), but some problem occured. Some of my submissions were denied, but without any error describing it. Can someone tell me what type of situations may cause the deny, apart from the movie already being in the database ? 2nd, is it possible to see which movies, uploaded by me are in the queue? Is it possible to know how many total movies reside in the "per proccess" queue ?
Thanks.

Following reasons:
1. A movie is allready in our database.
2. A movie is allready in our queue.
3. A movie is allready denied by one of the mods.

i dont think that you can see whats going on in the queue. probably a repost or a pro movie if it was denied. i know it takes a looong time for movies to get uploaded.

About the database, is it checked automaticly, by size and attributes, or just by name (just asking, because if name is a issue, i could try changing it)?

But the same movie by a different name, is still the same movie, my good friend.
Point 3 also means a personal check by a human and if they see amovie which is already there, it gets rejected.
Those poor guys have to check many many movies, so give them a little bit of time and if you are lucky your movies will show up somewhere.

And adding the same movie to the queue again, will just raise the queue even more.

Btw, welcome on WBW.

Sorry, you misunderstood my question. It was more of the kind "does the database works Only by name, ou does it checks also size/attributes". I has more concerned about submiting a different movies, but with the same name, and if so, if the system would deny it.

i think it smarter than that

at least the mods are!

Actually I did understand your question, but the thing is, there is also a human control, for those movies.
Everything that might slip thru the automated checkup, will still be check by a person.
If it is a different movie, you could modify the name and it will still undergo all the standard checkups, anyway.

Good luck and have fun.

^ yup! and its a fulltime job to get em checked and up

But in that case, a movie totally diferent, but with the same name as one on the database/queue, wouldn't be denied right after upload, right ? Trully, my question is only this..

Anything which is recognised by the system gets rejected, so yes.
New movie, new name, new size, new what ever, passes thru and get checked by a human. (I sound like Quark "Humaaan".)

And you can see on the face of Creepus that he really really reallyhates it to have to watch all those naked women in action in a vid.
Right Creepus ?

No it is not checked by filename, filesize nor file attributes. It is checked by an MD5 hash, so an exactly same file can't be uploaded.

Okay, thanks for all your help.

exactly the same is exactly the same file content (same bits and bytes)..

I'm familiar with MD5, and with that you cleared up all my questions about that . Thanks again.

No problem, in v4 of whatboyswant it will be more clear why a file is denied.
