let's say I'm torrenting a movie, and the torrent is downloading faster than the movie would play, is there any software that can handle a constantly changing file? thanks

edit: basically as long as you tell your torrent client to download sequentially, VLC (and probably most other video players) can just play the file like normal. though as one user pointed out, this may affect dl speeds.

I have jellyfin with the radarr/sonarr/prowlarr combo going. I can "heart" things in jellyfin. But it's recommendations are only things I already have downloaded. I see discovery in radarr, but no way to tell it if the movies I downloaded were good or bad. So I must be missing something.

I downloaded the movie ISS. It has some add for a website overlaid on top of the movie, and even ads in the middle. Is there a way to report it or something. I couldn't even get qbittorrent to tell me where it came from.

[How-To] Install and Setup Forza Horizon 5 in Steamdeck

Post is for people who's having hard time setting this up. There are plenty of posts out there (mostly in reddit) but missing some steps, so I decided to give this a try on what has worked for me.

  1. Download game version 1.405.2.0 cracked by Empress
  1. Add the setup.exe as a non-steam game and proceed with installation
  2. Once completed, add the ForzaHorizon5.exe as a non-steam game and force compatability to use Proton GE
  3. If it's not yet downloaded, use ProtonUp-qt to install Proton GE
  4. Download Goldberg emulator files
  • (primary) mr_goldberg.gitlab.io SLASH goldberg_emulator
  • (backup) archive.md SLASH hyYxh
  1. Unzip file then copy all dll from /experimental folder to game folder. Backup original DLLs before proceeding.
  2. If steam_appid.txt is present, edit and keep it empty. Otherwise, create this file with no contents or just delete it.
  3. Play game in Gaming mode
  4. Enjoy

I used to have RARBG in sonarr and everything worked beautifully. Since they shut down my indexers sometimes don't find the available torrents. The only one that kind of works is piratebay. I like the torrentlite website but I've been waiting for it to appear in the list of indexers in jackett. Is there any way for me to add torrentlite to jackett?

I have bought a font with a really shitty license agreement and I have a couple of questions.

  1. How can I best share the font with the community? (I am afraid of metadata in the font files, which may be tied to my payment account etc. - I had to register and log in to download the ttf files)

  2. How can I remove the DSIG and other metadata from the ttf file while keeping it usable?

  3. Are they able to detect it if I use the font in a commercial product online by crawling my website and if yes, how could I prevent an automatic detection attempt?

To my (and possibly your) surprise, I didn't find any free downloads of the font online. Their license is tied to a personal account, you have to log into once a year to keep the license. As far as I understand they theoretically could use the DSIG to let the ttf files "expire", at least when used in software that verifies the signature. But I may be wrong, please let me know.

Thanks in advance and cheers-I mean ARR

A new TV offers the possibility to watch 4k movies to me. I am thinking about upgrading my library but I'm not sure if I want to replace my 1080 collection. I've read that some use a separate 4k library.

Do you? How do you deal with it? I mostly add movies with trakt and radarr automatically. Do you use separate accounts?

So far I have not seen anything on torrent sites

More lost keys..

From a reddit post:

Just seen this on IRC:

"the TLDR is basically: Best case, site comes back up we continue and change things in the backend, okay case, site is down for a little bit while we rebuild backend with likely a new domain, and worst case we close out and refugee you all elsewhere (we might still do this last part too hook up the community even if we are working on the backend"

ETA: IRC admin wrote "I'm currently trying to set up a place where refugees can go to"

ETA2: As far as I understand, someone went away and I quote "without the return of (this person), AR's continued existence is up in the air, we are attempting to work on solutions but he unfortunately seemed to hold more keys to the castle than we were fully aware."

2024-02-06 update:

Hey AR Community,

It's been a stressfull few days.

We are diligently working in the background to try to avoid issues like the last few days going forward. We are also working to establish a more robust backend that doesn't depend on any single point of people failure.

Keep an eye out for changes and thanks for sticking with us as we get over the bumpy road ahead. Yes we know certain things are not working, we are working on it.

Most of all and above all else, I want to thank our community and our committed members. The out pouring of love has been incredible. The amount of love shown by everyone in this turbulent time has been eye opening to say the least.

Thanks

AR Staff

I'm looking for C.H.U.D (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.H.U.D.). I tried the following searches when searching 1337x.to:

  1. "C.H.U.D." -- The result was: "Please make sure atleast one word in your query is more then 3 characters. Your search is too short." And I saw it had changed my search string to "C H U D"

  2. "CHUD" -- this returned a bunch of porn, and eventually "C.H.U.D.II.Bud.the.Chud.1989.1080p.BluRay.H264.AAC" showed up in the list. But not the first C.H.U.D movie. And when I searched for "C.H.U.D.II" in the search bar, it once again claimed the search query was too short, and replaced the dots with spaces.

Please help.

Edit: problem solved thanks to you! Just had to out a space between C.H.U.D. and 1984

Just saw on Titus Tech Talk that torrents are last decade, and newsgroups is where it's at for this stuff. Of course he didn't elaborate, so I need some help here.

What is he talking about, and what are these groups that can I ~~enter~~ er, avoid?

In unrelated news, music piracy is on the rise.

PS. I am sorry that my wording of this rubbed so many people the wrong way. This is a truly a nasty update of terms and agreements, and it's going to hurt a lot of people financially.

If it's all fine with you stay in. But if it's not you have a little over 30 days to get out.

Hello! I know this is probably not piracy, but I think that this community is the best one to ask this. I'd like to stream live TV on my jellyfin server, and in the future perhaps try to implement a way to silence the audio during ads, but I want to start a step at a time: Before going in jellyfin, let's try with VLC that is easier. The live stream I'm trying to stream is taken from raiplay, the official website of RAI, the main italian tv station. I ignorantly just downloaded all the 4 .m3u8 files with this extension and, one at a time, I tried to open them with VLC, but all I obtained was VLC loading forever. What's going on? did I missed something important?

[if you know of better ways to do this, any recommendation is welcome!]

thanks in advance!

Visits to music piracy websites went up more than 13 percent last year, a new report says. The majority of those visits were to sites that allow users to download the audio from YouTube URLs.

ACCUMULATED RELEASE SIZE FOR JANUARY 2024

From the 54.960 scene releases, only 9.420 of them had file + size information.

They total to: 16.61 TB (16.619.701 MB) in 115 thousand files (115.373).

No idea about the size of the missing information, so the real value should be much higher.

this contradiction always confused me. either way the official company is "losing a sale" and not getting the money, right?
