A levels

I know, i had a GCSE on my 16th, it always seems to fall on an exam.

I have a slight problem.

For my key skills presentation my teacher said it would be good if I could download a video on my subject. I can find videos on the official James Bond website but it's taking about 30mins to stream a 2 minute clip. I would have thought with 16 servers it would have only taken a few mins but there you go.

Youtube is blocked so I can't download one from there. I want to watch the video before I download it so I know I've got a decent one.

I could download it at home but I can't get it to school because I only have a 1gb memory card and it will probably be too big.

So what I was wondering was, do you know of any sites other than youtube that I can download a video (legally) from that aren't very well known?

[Abi]

Have you tried streaming it at school yet? Because sometimes when you've done it once, it does it really quickly the next time.

[Abigail]

Yeah, it was taking forever so I gave up. It took about 10 mins to stream 30seconds.

Is Putfile blocked?

Try downloading it at home and uploading it to there. Its pretty reliable, but blocked at some schools, depending on how strict your school is. If it does work, then it should be pretty quick at streaming.

[Abigail]

What's putfile?
It's probably blocked at my school. If it isn't, it will be once I've been on it.

If you can download your video at home, then upload it to there, then it should work

[Abigail]

Thanks, I'll try it, hope it works

Search a proxy on google at home, write down a load and take them into school. At least one should work at your school, so you can try some video sites that are blocked.
