Problem in downloads... (1 Viewer)

[Scandermore]

Hello!

I have been trying to download some skins and plugins from the mediaportal page, and every time happens the same: the download begins, at a good speed, and after few seconds the speed decreases, until zero.

Some days ago, I managed to download some plugins "restarting" firefox, and it resumed the download, and after some tries the download was complete. But now, every time I restart the download, ot begins again, and never downloads it completely.

Anyone experiencing the same problems? I have tried with IE also, and downloading ot from home and from the office (to know if the connection is causing problems), but no way...

Thank you...

I have the exact same issue. Trying to download skins is a complete waste of time in IE or Firefox. Starts... runs a few seconds then just dwindles down to 0bps and sits forever.

theres no known issue here and the logs look fine so far. So I need more informations about your normal kb/s-speed/connection and how long it takes until the download break down.
There may be a problem when you download a relative large file like the Bleazle skin with a pretty slow connection (php-timeout). But without further infos thats just wild guessing.

I was at work on a T1. I downloaded media Portal itself fine but the skins would start @ anywhere form 30K/s to 80K/s then after about 5 seconds rapidly go down to 0 and sit there forever. I tried IE8 and FireFox 3 with the same result. I cleared the cache to no avail. I downloaded several things from other places during the day with no issues at all. Like I said including MediaPortal 1.0.2. The ONLY thing I had issues with is downloading the skins from that section. I tried several but the one I really wanted was indeed Bleazle. However I assure you the issue wasn't connection speed. The furthest I got was just barely over 5MB. I never even got close to 5MB the 100 or so other times I tried. Often it would go at like 80K for as little as 180K then just die. Other times I may get ten seconds but mostly I'd say less than 5. I am about to try from home and see how that goes.

Works fine from home on the DSL....
