What advice do people have for finding subtitles with things that require forced subtitles? Things like Lord of the Rings (where they talk in Elvish) or the Star Wars movies (different alien dialects) often require subtitles. Sometimes movies are entirely unwatchable without them. And for some reason, they aren't baked directly into the video file. This means that opening them in Plex or VLC by default does not display what's being said. This has led to many frustrating situations where I'll be watching something with a group of people and somebody starts speaking in another language. We're all left wondering "Are we supposed to understand what is going on here? Or is it supposed to be a mystery?" And then after 45-60 seconds of them talking in another language, it becomes pretty clear that there are supposed to be subtitles here, and they're just not there.

How are you supposed to know when there should be forced subtitles and when there shouldn't be? How are you supposed to find which one is the correct one where there are often so many options in Plex and VLC that say "English?" Most of them just play subtitles throughout the entire movie, which is irritating for most people we watch movies with.

I've tried messing around with open subtitles, but even that has been heavily hit or miss, and the last few days as I've tried it, the pages won't even load beyond the search.

Any advice?

I love Zotify and it's really helped me rebuild my music collection. It usually does a good job of grabbing full albums, but occasionally it will grab radio edits instead of album versions.

It does this silently so I find out later while listening, and Beets doesn't seem to catch it.

Anyone have a solution for this? There doesn't appear to be any flag for explicit/radio or similar that I can see.

In August, New Zealand's Justice Minister authorized Kim Dotcom's immediate arrest and extradition. Dotcom's response to his followers on X was simple: "I'm not leaving." Another post mid-September - "we are very close to disaster" - led to Dotcom disappearing for three weeks. On his return, Dotcom said X had suspended his account, based on an extremely serious allegation. After accusing Elon Musk of failing to help, yesterday Dotcom warned that a Trump loss would see Musk indicted and "fighting for his life." Dotcom has a plan to avoid extradition; chaos like this provides the fuel.

Could someone please send me the link for zlibrary tor site?

That's my favorite p2p program for ed2k/kad and bittorrent since like 2010

For those that don't know what the sneakernet is it's essentially transferring data through physical means. For example I would occasionally download TV shows to a hard drive for a friend who didn't have access to the internet after they thought they cancelled their subscription to their ISP and acquired hundreds of dollars of debt. You can find a Wikipedia page for the term sneakernet here.

Have any of you set something up with your neighbors or family? I'd include LAN setups where content as shared as part of the sneakernet. Kind of similar to how stuff has been distributed in Cuba.

I've noticed many people promote VPNs for torrenting to evade legal troubles in some places. But I wonder how do VPN companies get away with legal complaints? Especially if their servers are located in Germany or Japan, where piracy is heavily penalized.

p.s. I have never used a VPN for piracy, and I have never received any DMCA emails.

Hello. 1st time caller, long time lurker. If I wanted to get a bunch of music videos for a theme party (in this case goth 80s) what would be the best source? Are there like mtv torrents by year or anything to make the collecting less tedious?

We thank you for your support.

Hiya,

Working on completely replacing Spotify completely. Soulseek has popped up a few times here and there among forums and here on lemmy, so I thought I'd give that a go. I've started with getting Nicotine+ client and seems to be working fine. However, what does the traffic look like when downloading/uploading things over the Soulseek network? I read its peer-to-peer network, but does that mean I don't need a VPN? I'm also told to open a port on my router, I'm assuming this is so that I can share my own library with the rest of the network, but how safe is this?

If anyone could help my clarify this I'd greatly appreciate it!

Edit: Just found this very promising project too! https://github.com/slskd/slskd

Archive.li, archive.ph, archive.on, archive.fo, archive.md, and archive.today are all down. Anybody know what's up?

Hi all!

It seems I'm just too stupid to set the preferred/required languages in Sonarr/Radarr.

I'd like to have English, if German is not available - or maybe just a version with both.

I've looked through the trash guides and setup a custom format. But shouldn't that already trigger re-downloads for my stuff or do I need to activate this custom profile somehow?

Sorry, but after paying around for some time, I feel pretty much lost...

Thanks for every hint and help!

Title, I haven't Yo ho ho'd in forever in internet time.. What/where do I need to start again? I'm tired of ads and 3+ streaming services to watch stuff that's interesting. Running windows. Thanks dudes and dudettes.

When removing a torrent with "Also remove the content files" instead of deleting the files it moves to .Trash-ID, even on headless/docker systems.

Set to delete files: Settings -> Advanced -> Torrent content removing mode: Delete files permanently

PS: There's a pull request to revert back to delete https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent/pull/21528

I have seen the silly picture on the old domain.

The onion link I used to use no longer seems to connect, so how do I get to zlibrary now?

Edit: thanks for the responses. I'll try the ones mentioned.

I have a Disney plus subscription through my family and watched a cool animation film yesterday. Sadly the horrible nitrate destroyed all the nice particle effects wich really took me out of the experience.

Are there any sites wich offer high quality streaming or should I look into torrenting for blue ray rips?

With any luck...maybe they'll carry over to simplex. They weren't as free and open as liberashop, but they were still something. Not sure if there are any other alternatives at the moment.

You can search public groups using their search service, just don't forget to add using incognito profile.

EDIT: SOLVED

It's been too long since I pirated anything other than media. I am on an M2 Mac running Sequoia. Be kind!

Do y'all still see the comment section at bottom of torrent details for the tgx sites it has been gone ever since they seem to have gotten rid of the filter options aswell.

Not sure if this is the right place but I exhausted all options that I could think of.

I recently learned there was an (now-delisted) Android app port/game for Space Hulk made in 2013 based on the very same board game and really wanted to have it on my phone. It took some searching, but I managed to get the app up and running on my phone after installing the APK from PDALife and transferring cache files in the Android/obb/com.hoplite.spacehulk folder.

The app itself actually runs great when I'm playing it for the session, but the problem is that it doesn't want to save anything whatsoever, whether it's progress or even basic settings, but I gave it all the permissions it asked for. I attempted running it offline, in airplane mode, reinstalling, deleting cache/data, and even tried adding a folder named "com.hoplite.spacehulk" within my Android/data folder as I read that works for some apps.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra with Android version 14 if that helps

hi guys which extension repo (if any) are you using for anime sources in aniyomi nowadays?

Just a silly shower thought I had after hearing about Nintendo's copyright claim against Russ from Retro Game Corps.
