Redhulk50 Totally reasonable. We just have to find a way to protect the system from those looking to abuse it. I can't justify downloading the whole database from any perspective. Then we have people requesting for a refund after they downloaded over 1,000 videos in two weeks
We might actually take off PSVR files from the limit
doublevr So I am a new user and decided to take advantage of the Christmas sale. (Purchased with the understanding that Premium users had unlimited downloads) I am getting ready for a trip and brining my rift and laptop with me where I will have spotty internet - reached the download limit and then had some failed downloads. I can't even re-download the ones that I have already attempted to download. What gives?
doublevr I get that you need to protect your platform, but punishing paying users is not the right way to do it.
We are adding extra tweaks to that. Our devs have little availability during holidays. What stops you from giving SLR app a try?
doublevr LOVE the app... I plan to use my downloads within the app, but I am traveling to a spot where I will have a much slower connection than what I have now and I am on the road often. The next spot has a decent connection speed-wise, but is bandwidth limited.
xxkinkybootzzxx Thing is, we were sold a product that said we could download an unlimited amount of times. Now that is not the case.
As I stated elsewhere over 1/2 of the videos I downloaded were not usable. Not trying to download your entire database, just trying to find a few good videos that actually play.
Also I read the policy before paying and did not see any notification of a 30 video download limit.
Considering the lousy download speed, don't see where anybody could download the entire contents in a two week period.
Your policy is not fair, the service is poor and the two together means I want be paying for the next month unless you make some changes.
chucks4u Same man. There was no mention of the policy, but here we stand... I have found that on the failed downloads, you need to just restart the download in your browser before it expires (within the day I think) and then it works.
doublevr would be good if you took PSVR off the limit, when downloading you must be able to detect I a press the PSVR to download the video ? I have to use a USB stick and watch side loaded videos on littlstar app which I have to pay for every month, I'm not using a Oculus Rift or expensive high tech VR , as well as the PSVR I use a Oculus Go with a 32 GB memory and poor battery life, that's why I prefer to download and watch side loaded videos on PSVR as the battery life is good, let's hope SLR takes PSVR off the limit .
I am still experiencing a download speed issue. I am only getting like 150K/s-200K/s on downloads and I've had a few downloads fail on me before it finished corrupting the video.
MozzerllaRick this has happened to me a few times, how long does it take to download ?
I wonder what happened to this .
How about not limiting everyone, instead only limit users who abuse it. You could as you mentioned for example allow
more downloads for "trusted" users, i signed in (IIRC) 2019 and in the beginning i remember downloads were limitd to something like 30 or 50 in 72 hours, now i read 144 hours. Wonder what happened to that Trusted Users Idea.
Lurks
Lurks seems inevitable that slr will go streaming only at some point in the future. they have claimed that downloads arent going anywhere but all of their actions so far point in the opposite direction. an idea like that will probably remain a pipe dream i think.
spacepirate I agree, I'd say the only reason why SLR still offers downloads is that it wouldn't be able to remain competitive if they didn't.
TBH i wouldnt feel very comfortable doing my job while beeing online and i am shure i am not the only one.
