Shannon's Journal Discussion

[Weichi]

actually never mind i learned how to do this on a mac.

I'm confused.

I'm currently running base stage 6 mp3. I checked the hash and the number I got for the mp3 is the number on the txt file for stage 6 flac not the mp3. Did the two numbers just get mixed up in the md5hash txt file that was put up for download to verify?

What should i do? my mac terminal is showing my mp3 as ending on the md5 6270

BASE_V2.1_Stage_6_Masked_Subliminal_(Trickling_Stream).flac
b335f6c7b569bd5db486b87c124c6270 BASE_V2.1_Stage_6_Masked_Subliminal_(Trickling_Stream).mp3

The values are calculated by a MD5 sum hash program that calculates all files values and outputs them, automatically. I just copy and paste its output.

What you describe is mathematically impossible unless there is a serious bug in the program used to calculate them.

I have never had this issue before, and since it is a cryptographic function, it seems extremely unlikely that there would exist such a bug in the md5sum hash calculator.

Something is wrong then here's the proof. To the right highlighted on the txt file are the hd5 values for the flac and mp3 for stage 6. They are backwards or am i reading this wrong?

In Shannon's file the hash sum is before file name while on your terminal the hash sum is after so the file is good.
