Hmmm.  I'll start doing that to my ffp files but will stick with what I'm doing for the info files.

I realize that but was curious why one opens and the other won't.

DIME is rejecting my torrent of FLAC files because the fingerprint file has a name ending in .txt or .ffp.txt instead of .ffp. What can I do?

Is this new? I've seeded countless shows on The Dime and never have the fingerprint files ended with either .txt or .ffp
I've always used  .fingerprint

You're not losing your mind.  I had this same thing happen to me... all of a sudden Dime didn't want my fingerprint.txt files.  All I did was change the extension to straight .ffp and I was able to upload my torrent.  I'm assuming it works as I haven't had any negative feedback so far.  [Note: I am using xACT with Mac OS X if that makes any difference.]


Alright...now I'm just damn frustrated.  Here is what I have done:

- Recorded show
- Transferred from R4 to laptop using all the standard methods
- Tracked and converted to FLAC
- Created two .txt files
     (1) Info file
     (2) Fingerpring file

When I try to upload to DIME, I get the following message:

Upload action failed!

A checksum file (.md5, .ffp) was not found in your torrented data or it was too small for a valid checksum file. DIME requires you to include such a file to your torrented data. See FAQ.


I really don't know what is wrong with this.  I've uploaded a ton of shows, and never had this issue.  Please help!!!!
