    hateytb.

    A video “DAT” file is the file format that comes from a VCD. On a PC, you should be able to play .DAT files on Windows Media Player, WinDVD, Media Player Classic or a number of other players.

    Download Media Player Classic:

    Download WinDVD:

    On a Mac, I play my .DAT files on VLC or MPlayer.

    Download VLC

    Download MPlayer

    To Join files on a PC:
    On a PC, use HJSPlit and follow the instructions:

    i did the Hjsplit correctly, it just that when i click input file, i dont see the file on my desktop window, and i was wondering if it was because it was a DAT. file…
    but, thank you for your help!

  4. 4 admin

    Mmmm, not sure about that one. But DAT is a reasonably common file format, so it shouldn’t cause HJsplit any particular problems. Best of luck with it.

    hateytb - when you downloaded the files, did you have it save them to your desktop? If not, they may have been saved in “My Downloads” or “Temporary Internet Files”. It would be wherever your computer automatically saves a downloaded file unless you direct it to save it some place else.

    OR are you thinking when you open HJSplit and tell it to join that the files will be in that little window? If so, they won’t be there. They will be whereever you had your computer save them to when you downloaded them.

    You open HJSplit, tell it “Join” and then when the purple screen pops up CLICK on INPUT FILE then another window opens and it asks LOOK IN—that’s where you browse to find where you saved the file. You click on the file (it will say —.001) It will place that file in the window that says FILE NAME…now click OPEN You should be back to seeing the purple HJSplit form and there where it says INPUT FILE you should see the file you just opened. Now CLICK START. A bar comes up saying “working” When it is finished the joined file will be placed in the same area that the split files were placed. (Be sure to delete the 001, 002, etc. files once you have joined the file to save your space.)

    To make it easy for me, I usually save files that have to be joined to my desktop. They are easier to find there. The joined file is placed on my desktop and then I can easily delete the split parts and then move the joined file where I want it to be stored.

    I don’t know if that was helpful but it was long. Gomen, admin

    Wow, on my Mac I just double-click the .001 file and it does the rest.

    I am not the best one to ask about PC things.

    (LOL writing this at the Apple Store… ^_^ Convincing my PC friend to buy a Macbook.)

    Thank you soooooo much for putting this up 8D I’ve been hoping for a while that someone would put upload and share the JR concerts <3 ^__^
    Awesome site too btw, (sorry for never commenting before) keep up the good work!

  8. 8 ace

    thanks for this! wow! i saw the sugao concert uploaded somewhere, but now it’s gone. and now, it’s here. thanks guys! ok, since i’m following the Jrs. DL posts, i won’t be spamming you anymore.

    as for hateytb’s problem, probably it has something to do with the fact that technically, .DAT files are windows system files (ie NTUSER.DAT, index.dat). By default, if you double-lick or open them, they won’t be recognized as movie or media files so you have to manually open them with either media player, VLC, or the player you choose. hope this helped.

    evergreenoflife,

    I want to really acknowledge Sannah here for the heaps of work she did in getting all these concerts uploaded. Check back soon. It’ll probably take me a couple of days to get each new entry ready to go. And thank you for the lovely comments.

    Thanks ace and glenda for the extensive info and PC perspective on .DAT files. Hopefully hateytb stops by again.

    ace, I like nice spam. It’s all the “Free Tramadol” and “Soma” messages that drive me crazy. (you guys don’t get to see those).

  10. 10 ace

    i get lot’s spam like free novena and “Nice site.. will come back often.” but there are hidden links.

    aww… i mean to say DOUBLE-CLICK. Never lick files to open them!

  11. 11 admin

    ace
    LOL. I never lick it if I don’t know where it’s been

  12. 12 miya

    thank you so much for uploading :3
    juniors days are always fun to see.. i love to see how much they changed over the years (become more and more awsome 8DDD)

  13. 13 ace

    i hate my typos. but, just in case people follow my notes, it’s better that I corrected it before someone would actually lick on their monitors and complain. :)

  14. 14 vtsoccagrl

    I have a Mac, so I renamed the files with .001 and .002 extensions, joined them with split & concat, then opened them with QuickTimes….and Ta-Da!! it works =)

    Thank you for uploading Sugao 1, i’ve heard plenty about the concerts and it’ll be my first time viewing them..yay =) i hope you’ll be uploading the rest of them ^^

  15. 15 glenda

    vtsoccagrl - it had not occurred to me that she was trying to join the MU files :( Since these are .dat files you would not have to join the files downloaded from MU for them to work. However, I never thought about adding the extension to the filename so I COULD join them :p I don’t have a Mac but I’m up for experimenting. Thanks for the idea! I know you will enjoy watching Sugao 1; it’s terrific ^^

  16. 16 admin

    miya, Yeah, as cute as they were, I think they’re growing up real nice too!

    vtsoccagrl and glenda, thanks for the additional tips on joining the fules. I am working on getting the next lot uploaded now.

  30. 30 admin

    amotang, I’ve just tried Disk 1 Part 6 now and it started downloading fine. Maybe Mediafire was having a hiccup. Please try again and it should be fine:
