I can't access the site anymore and when I try the mirror site (http://mirror05.x264.nl/) it says:

Bandwidth Limit Exceeded
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to the site owner reaching his/her bandwidth limit. Please try again later.


Money issue?


Thanks,

Obviously the web-hosting account of Mirror #5 is bandwidth limited and that limit has been reached for this month.
There is not much that can be done, except waiting for the next month or getting a more expensive account with more bandwidth.

BTW: x264.nl appears offline too ("The connection was refused when attempting to contact x264.nl").

I recall the site having a limit more around 2 terabytes, and it was down for a week beforehand, so I'm just going to blame it on Jarod.

x264.nl datacenter had a power upgrade, the box came back nicely, but php failed.... fixed

mirror05.x264.nl had a 10L error: "missed a decimal sorry".
It's also on a new server, the old one died after 5 years.

All mirrors are virtually unmetered, but most have limits installed just in case someone goes messing around.
Mirror05 now has 100gb, but as shown above, if thats not enough, change a decimal and its all good.

And to complete the whole x264 mirrors story:
mirror03.x264.nl will return within a week i hope.
The admin got lost somewhere in Vegas, but he has returned.
He is ordering 3 servers to make up for it :)

The biggest issue in the past, the DNS server kept working all this time, so you should have been able to get the files at all times using any of the other mirrors!

Edit:
Oh and Razorholt, all x264.nl services are free. No money has ever been paid, it's all charity! :D
