IPFS-DTube-Install

in dtube •  7 years ago 

Navigate to the go-IPFS folder and start config.bat.[WHERE IS THAT?]
Put in the amount of GB [WHAT THE HECK IS GB?] you're willing to seed to Dtube.
Done. Happy Days.
I have been asking these questions for a couple of months.
I have TRIED to use Dtube, but I can't.
You give directions predicated on someone knowing what the mysterious GB is that I'm supposed to "seed".
I DON'T KNOW WHAT GB is!!!!!. I have SBD, I have Steem and I have SteemPower.
I have NO CLUE what IPFS is. This video above won't play for me of course...
WHY won't you answer my questions?

      This reply did NOT show up 7 hrs ago... I wonder why the delay? 😠
      I'd welcome some help, I guess mostly in understanding the terminologies,
      Where to find the stuff, how to implement them etc... are you in discord @thesarge?

          GB means GigaBytes and is a unit of memory.

            Good Morning @binda, thanks for that only, I know what a Giga Byte (GB) is in relation to memory.
            You give directions predicated on someone knowing what the mysterious GB is that I'm supposed to "seed".
            I have GB's of memory on my computer. It is hard wired. IN MY COMPUTER.
            Explain to me how I can "seed" or 'delegate' memory ON MY COMPUTER, to someone or something else?

            Navigate to the go-IPFS folder and start config.bat.
            Put in the amount of GB you're willing to seed to Dtube.

            How can I seed what is on my computer to Dtube? What does that mean? If it means turning over control of a subset of memory on this computer to some external entity, no thanks.
            I'm thinking that the video hosting is done HERE on my computer, if so I sorta understand that, but I don't have a lot of spare RAM on this computer. I'm still trying to understand.
            Thanks again.

              Hey Jerry, I want to setup the local IPFS, but the link is broken, do you still have the .zip file by any means?

                Hi @rick1
                I'm not sure what you mean, if I got a .zip file, how would I have gotten it? Email? If I knew how I got the .zip file, it would help me to know where I may have put it.

                  The file that you got by clicking on the link that is on this post: "Download go-IPFS for DTube: https://dtube.video/DTube_files/go-ipfs.zip"

                  That link is currently not working, and since you commented on this post, I thought you may have downloaded it.

                    I may have, though I don't recall.
                    What would that file name look like?

                        Both articles give the same link, so that one isn't working either, the file should be called "go-ipfs.zip".
                        Thank you Jerry.

                          Good Morning @rick-1
                          I just did a search of this pc for go-ipfs.zip, no results.
                          I searched from the start menu as well, still no go.
                          Sorry I couldn't help. I wish I could.

                            If you just want to use DTube, you don't need to install IPFS. There are simply problems with the video above. I cannot play that one either. Please try playing one of the top videos on the DTube-mainpage. It should work, without you having to do anything else. If you like, you can tell us whether it worked.

                              The only reason I wish to be able to use dTube is because there are videos I've made, of me playing music, that I don't want on YouTube.
                              I don't want to have to upload them there JUST so I can turn around and post them to Steemit.
                              I don't have time right NOW, to try anything, but when I get home I will come back and give it a try.
                              Thanks @binda

                                THIS Video, just spins and won't load


                                But I was able to view several others.
