Hi!
Just a heads up, we added some extra servers to the website, so everything should run a bit smoother from now on 
We’re currently also testing a new scraping (updates of seed/leecher numbers) system, this will significantly improve the accuracy of those numbers.
As always: in case you spot any problems, please let us know. Thanks!
Update: As some of you asked, here are the specs of the servers added:
- Database slave: 2x Opteron 165 dual core, 4G DDR, RAID-1 (custom built)
- Web server: 2x Opteron 165 dual core, 4G DDR, RAID-1 (custom built)
- Advertisements web server: 2x Opteron 244, 2G DDR, RAID-1 (Sun V20z)
MINONOVA.ORG: THE BEST BITTORRENT SITE!!!!
i enjoy your blog updates, but i wish you’d be more in-depth. after following torrents for a long time, and previously running my own torrent site, i’d like some more info, something more interesting to read!
give me details!
sweet, speed has always been good…. Just wondering what kind of extra power you added
Yes, it was already much faster since the december update. Should run hell fast now.
Good for the scrape thing, there was some errors sometime, popular torrents getting less than 10 seeds.
hello my name is danny,
i am new to the whole torrent thing but have caught on fast. but i cant seem to find a converter to move my files that i down load to a cd (dvd r) disk for movies and games can anyone help me out with this one?
You Rock! =D From The Webmaster
Danny .. go to mininova and enter in the search box nero
download that wonderful app and install it
use the keygen included in the file and well u can put everything on the cd
if u want your movies to play make sure u go to nerovision included in nero and it will do the procces for you .. all u need to do is point to the file
Thank you will try that one!
Sweet. The website’s indeed faster now. Thanks for the great work!
whats up with the french he, he,
Mininova.org has always been known as a well run operation, and today’s improvements should only add to its reputation as one of the top BitTorrent websites. - slyck

Wow, this is bigger news than I thought! Kudos for making the press!
Awesome
hey guys u want the latest film hot fuzz the new english movie from the creator of the sean of the dead..come onto our network via irc chat on this site …….chatstream.net or pipe.chatstream.net and i send u the url direct download link or i give u the torrent for u use our private tracker have fun dudes yours grunt and sabrewolf
Danny! Search for a program called winavi, then instal it and there you go, easy to use and will convert mpg and avi files to dvd disk, then play them on any standalone dvd player? Peace Montyno1
Grunt the warez… Dont fall for this shit that pours from him, because the film hot fuzz hasnt been released yet, and if you do sign on to some bizarre link, you will probably get trojanned or virused or worse…SCREAM!!!
Montyno1
Stay safe out there
Before I go… Lets keep PORN off mininova, and enjoy some wholesome films and other good things, instead of clogging up bandwith with masturbation aids… lol
Keep safe, Montyno1
you guys are the best torrent site the only problem i have is how you put the details and comments under different tabs it makes it a pain in the arse to click between them could you possibly just list them all under the first page like torrentspy does.
interesting idea, about the tabs. for one… this isnt torrentspy. let mininova be mininova. my personal gripe about this place is the comments left by users. this place needs a moderator(s). i’d be more than happy to be an enforcer around here. and some color pages wouldnt hurt either !!
searching crashes safari.
Its been a lot faster since a while back, love it. Keep up the awesome work.
Hey thx for the update really helped my speed is a lot quicker now.
I like this website but please mention the language o the torrent. I downloaded Tomb Raider Angel Of Darkness and there was no language specified… It was italian :)) please do something with this ok? This is surely the most amazing site!!!
hello people, i need help. I don’t now how to let my KB fast or download faster. Please if anyone know, please send me information on my email : firas_ahmed760@hotmail.com
Thanks You for your time reading.
There is no other site like Mininova
you must check out - http://www.ticketad.com
i have lots of movies to add to site how do i do it
ot, but im getting so sick of seeing comments about torrents like “Is This for real…This must be fake..I’m downloading it any way…I’ll let you guys know if its fake.” … thus why i’m posting my bitch here, and not there … obviously we all know to say if it’s a good or bad file … so please do, do that … but quit forcing me to look at your crybaby comments which seek to know if the file is good … it’s annoying as hell.
Pics or it didn’t happen.
Thanks for sharing your information, THanks alot…
you rock !
i haven’t really noticed any difference in the speed of the website, pages still come up very slow. am i supposed to download any updates that i haven’t heard of or sometings?
YOU CAN NEVER HAVE ENOUGH POWER
I started downloading this movie and you took it off. Why? there are many people out there trying to get the last little bit. There are over 3000 people setting at 99.9%. Please help out. Because_I_Said_So-[2007].avi
Hi,

I had it several times in a row, so is this something you want to know (problems)
@Khardesh:
Thanks for letting us know. We fixed the problem (one of the hard disks of the master SQL server was full). In case you spot any more errors, please let us know!
Mininova the best tracker for torrents.

KeeP It Up !
OK! OK! here is a nother one for you guys. I got the dvd thing down, now how do I get my games from the computer to my xbox??? Tuff one I know. I guess knowledge is everything hu! hook me up someone. or write me off line to seageko@hotmail.com
Danny,
Your XBOX needs to be modded to play images.
Check Out http://www.xbox-scene.com/
Everything you need to know is there.
its very good
come on guys your worried about extra server power when britney has just checked out of rehab after 24 hours! im seriously concerned we have to intervene.
Hi!
Great that you keep your minds on the problem but I dont believe you’re quite there yet.
After your updating in dec. loading was for some reason a delight. However since this latest tech. change getting here is a nightmare.
Just trying to get here took three tries. Fasterfox counted over 250 000s before I had to give up and try again.
I hope you can solve it. Meanwhile I still stick to you cause the contents on Mininova are still the best.
Hey!
Your website is one of the best torrent sites ever but it wont load on my computer anymore for some weird reason so… Help me please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello Mininova’s staff !
Good to hear that you guys were able to get new servers since there was so many ununderstandable leechers who were bitchin about the loading speed of the web pages, like they were paying for it…
Anyway keep up the good work people !
to shirin : I don’t have this type of problem…Maybe you should check your faster fox settings. Set it lower, especially the number of connections to one server. Anyway, I think faster fox isn’t that useful unless you’re using a broadband connection…
Hey guys!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!!
tops them all the best
Hi Again!
Thanks Penguin for your concern, but I dont think it’s my settings since it only occurs when on Mininova.
However…naturally (typically)…It’s loading fine ever since posting??? Go figure???
I’ll assume you didn’t meen me when talking about “ununderstandable bitching leechers”. Cause I might be ignorant but I dont think I’m bitching.
I hope I made it clear that I appreciate the site and that I think it’s great that they are continuously working on improving it.
If I didn’t love it I certainly wouldn’t visit it every day.
Have a great day
To Penguine: Sorry…I’m a bit slow myself! What exactly do you meen by your last sentence? You meen true broadband as in fibres not coppar? and why so?
Yo shirin,
When I was talking about stupid leechers I was talking about those you could find bitchin here :
http://blog.mininova.org/articles/2006/10/30/mininovas-new-design/
Damn, those mininova’s staff worked hard to get us a new design and some stupid leechers just come and complain about loading speed like a bunch of spoiled brats… It’s like you’re offering chocolate to a kid, but that stupid kid would just throw it to your face saying he doesn’t like chocolate, and that he wants a $300 toy instead… I guess they just don’t realize that you have to pay for a server, since they’re downloading movies, warez, mp3s… for free…
As for my last sentence, what I actually meant was : ‘I think faster fox isn’t that useful unless you’re NOT using a broadband connection…’, my bad. I used to surf over the net at 56kbps, and Faster fox was very useful cause it really did improve the overall speed…but since I moved and got myself a 2Mbps connection, I try surfing with and without faster fox…It didn’t make any difference to me. Also I used to have some trouble with some website while using firefox. The website was not responding if the number of connection per server was too high. I even got banned once from a website cause Faster fox tried to make two connections, but that was a special case…
Have a nice day.
so what? LOL
mooi zo
what the hell you talkin about
Why is dreamgirl it say english. when finish it is in spanish
Hey Guys,
Totally awesome site, have used this site for what seems ages. Very good content and reasonably good download speeds as well.
Just a thought and I am not sure if this a developing problem, I have tried to download 3 music files, and others to be consistant, these files report all is well and completes ok, however on inspection there is nothing there, no content, just empty shell of what should be.. I have noticed that others have been saying this on the torrents themsleves, I am just rasing the profile of this a bit to see if there is a possible issue raising its head. Don’t seem to be an issue with the bit torrent client of which I must admit having to pull the same stuff posted here off other sites, and they seem to work although slower.
you bunch of shitheads stop downloading with torrents or i will close down all your torrent sites around the world dont u know you are hurting the american economy???buy the original mp3 and films and games or do u want to see your fellow american jobless????if not i have to take action and close all your ip addresses down and notify your isp you been warned you leeches
larry grunt@chatstream.net
fuck you grunt you are the cunt who locked up all my friends in europe with you reporting us u twat watch your back in texas u snitch and fbi informer
if u go onto chatstream.net the twat will open the command prompt and try to break ya pc my firewall alerted me to the risk
Server is running really good now, my location is Argentina, page loads really fast, faster than google xD
I have a BT and Warez webs, also gaming servers, so i understand your work, and i really appreciate!
Good luck!
hey i was just wonderin where your location is, are you in england or somewhere else???
can anyone help me, my download speeds are really slow but my connection is really fast, how can i make the downloads work quicker.
ABSOLUTELY THE BEST TORRENT SITE EVER… Thank you for hours of T.V heaven.
p.s. Keep up the great fucking work fella!
that larry person is a dick, tell him to piss of cos he is a loser.
you are the best
I don’t really know what your guys budget is, but you should use more RAM in my opinion. ASUS sells motherboards with slots for up to 32 Gb or even 64 Gb of RAM, but they’re expensive though. These motherboards also support Intel Xeon processors by the way..
Great site anyway, with or withour superpowered server pc’s.
Virus is my best friend but you’re the best p2p site
Thats brill to hear.
Need more DVD Rips on here though
Hey Larry!
You YANKS think you own the world and have the right to step on whoever you like as long as it helps with your economy!
Hears some news for you buddy, America IS NOT the rich and powerful nation you think it is.
American Law IS NOT International Law!
There are dozens of countries on this planet, each with their own economic worries and you don’t hear them complain a tenth as much as you YANKS do!
If America spent the equivalent of 1 year of its military budget on NASA you could colonize space easily and leave the rest of us behind.
So shut your cake hole and take the hint!
P.S. I think you guys at mininova are doing a great job, keep it up!
Anyone else getting the message ‘The connection was reset’ when trying to access the Forum lately?
Great work, i really like Mininova, it’s the cleanest torrent site to say the least. keep up the good work
thx for everything ive had from you mininova
keep up the good work:)
Why can’t i connect to the tracker?
for the past few days my torrent can’t get to the trackers. connection reset by peers, but other sites, ok, ISP connection ok. anything I missied?
I been getting these in my log files
[2007-03-10 17:32:12] : Problem connecting to tracker -
[2007-03-10 17:32:38] : Problem connecting to tracker -
But I can go to other sites and ping the tracker.
I am not sure if my ISP is doing anything or a start of something big…
IHAVE BIT TORRENT. IHAVE RELOADED IT ABOUT 4 TIMES. THE REASON FOR THIUS IS IT KEEP ALL THE OTHER TORRENTS BUT NOT MININOVA.ORG. WHY IS THIS……..TIA.

It´s really really fast now !
Thanks for the improvements !
Simply the BEST TORRENT SITE !
I am able to get connection to the tracker sporadically. I am not sure was I been cap from accessing the tracker. I do seed all of the completed torrent indefinately. But did removed some after couple of weeks for local disk space.
yeah! the website used to hang a lot!
but now it runs faster than google!
well done!
Ya, I don’t get any more server time-outs and the website loads up almost as fast as Google!
Haii Everyone! I’m new here. It really take a long time when i finally have downloaded something. Does anyone know how to make this process faster?
And what do i need to do when i downloaded something? Do i need to push the button: ’stop’?
And how come not every torrent is downloading all the time? Can someone pleas tell me this?
email is: angel_x_ique@hotmail.com
Angelique
The speed is excellent now!! Great job!
hi
This site is the best one out here for what ever you need is keep up the good work
j’ai un souci avec abc , j’ai lancer ma liste de telechargement depuis 24h j’ai tjr pas reçu un seul Mo donc si quel q’un pouvais m’expliker comment sa marche !
SPink,
La langue que tout le monde comprende est l’anglais - je ne comprende pas boucoup des choses que a dit en ce page. Devez ecrever en la langue de tout le monde s’il est que a besoin d’une solution. Mais j’aime aussi le francais.
To everyone else: I am thoroughly impressed with this site, and hope it can continue to operate effectively and without interference. One thing though: how to I play back the content of a music download where the content seems to be an image of a CD, with an “.ape” file suffix?
A todos los que sepan hablar en el idioma de Castilla y León, y de casi todo el hemisferio occidental, ¡saludos! Soy gringo, pero el español lo tengo tanto en el corazón como el inglés, tal vez más, porque escojí aprender el español, mientras el aprender el inglés fue algo natural, producto de mi medio ambiente. A todos los Argentinos en especial, porque allí viví un año, ¡Suerte, y que descarguen sus archivos con éxito!
Hey Larry!!If the recording companies and artists were’nt so damn greedy,we wouldnt need sites like mininova.As it is,mininova and the lesser sites are providing a valuable public service,so wind your neck in and leave us in peace!!
You should be spending time improving the search feature - which totally sucks.
I type something in, it says there are no results, I press search again and then some show up. I try sorting them by amount of seeders or date and then it says there aren’t any results. What a load of crap.

Hey Mininova,
Ace site u got going here,
just to say i have been getting “550 - Internal Server Error!” lately when i do a search or even try to acces the main site
confirm that my ISP limit my access to bittorrent trackers. I am only given access from 1am to 5am singapore time. Wish I could seed longer.
Great program. Found some programes I didn’t know were there.
I couldnt love you guys any more! I think i’ve saved $4,000 on all the adobe shit I have now
You are the best. Keep up the good work….
Excellent! Running fast again like the good ol’ days
awsum
Props!
That jamendo is clogging up again.
Any chance of blocking them as you did once before?
Many thanks and keep up the GREAT job.
Rob
What, no “WE GOT BUSTED BY THE FBI!!!” April Fool’s joke?
Can someone fix this?: I leave a torrent comment, but then I submit w/o realizing I’m not logged in, so it puts the login box there and I login, but then it doesn’t post the comment! blah.

I was just wondering because I have 9mps for download with my hsi provider but when I download these files it is extremely slower. If anyone could inform me on this I would definetly appreciate it!

I have read many of the post not all. I just wanted to make a comment if it hasn’t been already. I think there should be a “click here to donate to the badass mininova staff” button. =)
