Frequently Asked Questions -Releasing
 

What's the best way to release new content using eTomi?

Warning! Please read the eTomi disclaimer regarding the use of eTomi as a means of distributing illegal content.

Step 1 Go to the eTomi Library and add any files you wish to release.

Step 2 Make sure what you're about to release is not already on the network. This is step is essential to prevent multiple file variants. You can run a manual search, or simply right-click the file and select

Right-click file > Search for > Similar Files


Step 3 Go to the file metadata tab.

Right-click file > Properties > Metadata tab

Add as much information as you can about the file so that users may be informed about its contents before downloading.

Step 4 Go to 'My Review' (the next tab) and write a short review and/or rate the file according to its quality.

Step 5 In the Sharing tab, select 'Release' from the 'Upload Queue Selection Tags'.



Step 6 Go to your upload queue settings and add a new queue.

Tools > eTomi Settings... > Uploads

Give it a name like 'Release' and check Marked Files as an 'Entry Criteria' then select 'Release' from the drop down menu. Try to dedicate a large amount of bandwidth for this queue as well. (See Figure.)

How do I release a file on all (or a particular) network?

You need to be connected to the network to be able to distribute through it. Can't Connect?

General Tips

  • Send a magnet link to your friends and people who might be interested in your release. You can also try websites like MagnetMix.com
  • Try to stay connected to as many networks for as long as you can to ensure that the file gets fully distributed.
  • When you're not using the net, remember to move the slider in the bandwidth monitor to MAX to help speed up uploads.
