Can anyone upload the files from cb, including the Audio extractor for all the JDIC files, to another hoster than mediafire? It's blocked for some reason.... Thanks

Tori-kun,

The MF links are working, it could be ....

"This happens because Mediafire is prohibiting select countries from downloading the files at a certain time. And It may happens for about 2 or more hours. So instead of waiting for an hour or so, just follow the below trick to get rid of Auto-Refresh Errors in Mediafire."
http://www.techzene.org/mediafire-downlo...o-refresh/

Or try using Jdownloader instead.

Does not work. I tried it already, so it really seems my provider blocks mediafire downloads... multiupload.com re-upload (extractor incl.) would be great

Tori-kun,

That's terrible... to be blocked by your ISP. :O
The upload speed at my end is horribly s-l-o-w to any DDL sites on the WWW
For the JDIC audio files of 1.5GB, it will take quite some time to upload....

Meantime, you can download the smaller files here.

Take note of the EXPIRY DATE as the files will auto-delete and there won't be a second or repeated upload.

Thank you very much, eslang! お疲れ様～
I downloaded the two files that you posted already, so I can re-upload them if any requests in future. I will download the JDIC files as soon as they are up.

Thank you very very much, eslang!!!
If anybody besides me also needs the files after the expiration date, please tell me, I will do my best to upload them.

The following might be also directed at cb4960, so..

I have downloaded all the audio files, extracted them and they are in the right folder, however, the deck is already a bit older and not all cards were added in the format where "audio" was also enabled/switched on and the 'code' ([sound:]) is not written on some cards. Is there a way to add this afterwards not manually (that would be quite a lot! =.=)

Would be great if there is a small plugin-solution for that issue~

*push*

Can anyone help me? I've downloaded the pack, extracted it and could generate the audio with cb's tool (Thank you!), however, not all audio files are played in anki for some reason, even for common words like 変換, which is strange (I checked the card and the audio-tag/code is entered, so..). Has anyone had this issue, too?

Tori-kun,

I don't use the anki cards and won't be able to answer why some audio files have problem at your end. Perhaps you may want to consider posting your question at this thread ->
JDIC sound files

@buonaparte: french children's stories with transcript + audio for your list:
http://www.conte-moi.net/contes/recherche-avancee

you can also use them for learning various African languages or Arabic, if you already know french. (although actually, i dunno if they have the transcript for those languages...)

No english translation though.

Can someone re-upload the news.kids.yahoo.co.jp file? for some kind of reason I can't download it (mediafire works fine, but that file doesn't work). Thanks.

IceCream Wrote:@buonaparte: if you already know french.

Thanks a lot. As far as I can remember, I do know French, I may be wrong of course.


Ladies and gentlemen,
no more cookies for the time being. I have to figure out a way to upload stuff without having to register anywhere, and where the stuff would stay for a little bit.

Some sites with news:

for learners of Japanese

right-click 400k, save news.asx, drag to notepad, copy the mms:// (OrbitDwonloader or Hidownload to download vids)
http://www.nhk.or.jp/ (Real Media Catcher to download)

It gives furigana for every word so even elementary school children (and learners) can read it. No audio.
