      Thanks for the reply.

      Is there any way to tell if a server has the battle recorder working? I am trying to compile a movie and would like to know if the recorder is working before I spend an hour playing just to find out that it is not recorded.

      Thanks for your help, again...

        I believe there is a battlerecorder option, i could be wrong though.

          I have battle recorder checked on my filters. Some servers apparently do not have it configured properly, therefore you cannot dl the file.

          The only one I have been able to work with is

          85.133.16.47:16587

          The problem is, most of the time, nobody is playing on the server.

            The All Seeing Eye has a filter for BR, but I don't think you can use the ingame filter.

            It is not the green TV icon.

              Now, THIS is a good thread. all this time I've been wondering about that, and also wondering why the server is so laggy n such all the time. Plus- explains why the admin was never really an admin. :P

                I don't mean to sound stupid but I still don't understad the second one (type of a server) and the last one (dedicated or not).

                  type of server is if it is a windows or linux server, and deticated or not means, when it is dticated, the server is only running as BF2 online server , when it is not detecated, there are or other games running on it or just some websited hosting

                    That green monitor is the MD5 checksum, not dedicated server.

                          What does serverload mean? I search for this thread to find out why I haven't been able to use mic recently in game (since I started using XFire) and I thought these symbols might have something to do with it.

                          As long as the headset symbol is there I'm good with VOIP right?

                              Serverload = Cpu usage.
                              Headset = Voip enabled
                              Green monitor = Pure server (will kick for modified files)

                              dedicated is when it shows a rectangular computer, linux is the penguin
                              not sure what the 64 is, might be mac
