Blu-ray live chat channel on IRC - Blu-ray Forum

lokus · 08-26-2007, 02:15 AM

I have started a live chat channel in #blu-ray on IRC (Internet Relay Chat). To access the channel via the web you may go to the following weblink and enter a nickname: http://www.mediafanatics.net/blu-ray

For all of those die hard Blu-ray fans, this is a great opportunity to talk with friends and other individuals whom have the same interests as you when dealing with HDM. To install a non-web, MS Windows based client you can do the following:

1) Download mIRC from www.mirc.com
2) Run the mIRC application and configure it
3) In the main window type: /server irc.blessed.net or as an alternate server irc.easynews.com (a list of servers can be found at http://www.efnet.org/?module=servers)
4) Once connected to the server type: /join #blu-ray

I have added channel commands. They are listed below.
!news - obtain the latest news items from Blu-ray.com
!reviews - view the most recent Blu-ray reviews from High-Def Digest
!amazon - view the newly listed Blu-ray movies on Amazon
!explain <word> - view a definition for a specified word (usually a blu-ray term. for example: !explain 1080i, !explain OAR, etc)

The channel automatically receives news and reviews updates from Blu-ray.com and High-Def digest and posts them in the channel.

Rules:
1) No disrespecting other users. I know the forums can be brutal at times but this channel isn't a place to disrespect others.
2) No posting links to offensive material
3) Anything else that I determine in the future...

I hope to see everyone there. I love the forums and this is just another way for us to talk about the Blu-ray format. The channel is somewhat dead at the moment so please bare with it. PM me if you have any questions. Enjoy!

UPDATE: The dictionary has been implemented but only has a few definitions available. I need some help with what terms and definitions to add.

Dang people me and another user are the only ones ever in the channel (granted I am not on until past 5pm EST). Show some love for the format and lets chat realtime. Anyways...later!

I was planning on popping in tomorrow morning while the thing is going on in Europe, in case anyone who's there can stop by perhaps?

Also have you thought about setting up a java IRC page? Easier for people to stop by.

Does anyone want to recommend some HDM or Blu-ray specific terms and meanings? I can add them to the dictionary bot in the channel.
