Archive.org upload failures

[keepongoin]

Ok - not really a newbie to the FTP world, but for some reason, the archive is not letting me upload shows to the archive... I can log into it but I can't upload anything.

Has anyone had this problem?  Just curious if there is a fix.

Thanks.

I have evene started a new account over there, and it still fails...every single time.

forget it... see the error now... their disks are all full.

I've had the same problem before.  They usually have it cleaned off within a day or so.

that is good news... i have been so lazy about sharing so many shows...

I've put some new stuff on there lately, seems to be working fine.

It pisses me off to no end that some shows I upload and import will randomly make MP3's available. 

So after you import, be sure to check the show details page and make sure it didn't convert to lossy formats.

Very very true, I don't know why they even have that on there? Maybe for samples for other tapers to refer to? They should just have ONE 1 minute mp3 sample, not the whole show available in fuckin 64 kpbs lossy mp3's.

in the archive's defense, i kinda like the streaming mp3s they have available cuz it means i don't have to download a whole show just to listen to it at work.  i'm 100% lossless all the way, but sometimes the streaming mp3s do have their place.

It's not random...there's a checkbox you click on import if you don't want lossy derivatives made. I've got dozens and dozens of shows up and none have had that problem.

Hmph. Bizarre. I actually had it happen once because I had my browser crash on me in mid-import, but seriously, 90 some-odd shows and no random lossiness.
