AT doesn't have solidfiles account. It's all anonymous upload. We're dealing with pirated content here, of course there'll be some copyright troll hanging around.
Probably only a few months, considering 1Fichier deleted a bunch. But I'm not against the idea - if anyone's willing to tackle such a feat, I'm willing to provide assistance.
Yeah, but wasn't usenet option added somewhere in late 2016? At least a year worth of direct ddl files (including zipped subs/extras not stored in storage.animetosho.org) would be missing though. Well, still beats better than nothing. And without direct ddl, server load/bandwidth usage should be lower, right? Now AT won't blow up.
You can try asking here (the feedback page) and someone might be able to point you in a good direction, probably to a torrent rather than a DDL though.
The download proxy doesn't need premium, only premium access. This is currently €10/year on 1Fichier (€5/year during specials), though it's probably more due to gateway fees etc. I usually prepare to pay for these in advance, but I didn't expect the subscriptions to be revoked without warning (and I still haven't been informed of it by 1Fichier). I can probably get it up again in a few days, if I can get a payment through, but if people can't wait, the option to give an account/key is open (if anyone's actually interested in this, comment and something can be organized).
I don't intend to accept monetary donations or the like, which is why I'm only accepting accounts or keys.
If just a small number of leechers here, say 20-30, would collaborate and donate just €3.5 every 2-3 years, Direct Links would always be up. And pay attention that with the mentioned number, it would be one's turn every 2 to 3 i.e €3.5 per 2-3 years!!! Even prisoners earn more than €3.5 yearly!
Hasn't still anyone purchased a 1Fichier premium account for AT? Man, it's just €3.5 for 1 month and €9.0 for 3 months. I would definitely bought it the day admin mentioned it if I hadn't had some problem with my card (not the money itself).
Thanks for pointing that out! I've changed the scraper code to deal with this. I think I've managed to fix up all instances of it too, so hopefully that does it.
Never tried it. I do recall there being a bunch of security issues reported in the past. They seem to be fixed now (though see 2018 update at the bottom of that page). Although I really don't think the security concerns really matter much to most, I've felt that it was more of a research project / proof-of-concept software than something you'd actually use, at least for now.
I recall hearing that they were looking into some sort of blockchain payment system for seeders to encourage them to share. Not sure if implemented, or just cashing in on a meme. Sounds interesting though. I suspect the overheads from Tor-like routing might be a big disincentive in itself to using Tribbler, though time will tell. It may be possible (thinking ideally) that it could form a sort of "backbone" to the torrent system, perhaps, that is, it gets used by "supernodes", but most users use more standard clients that feed from other users and "supernodes".
omgg this is the best website ever than kfuck i finally found a nyaa.se alternative... horrible subs has literally no anime even if like has like 1000 serieses TYYY :D
Tried it a long time ago, it might have improved, but when I installed it it was a resource hog and also downloads a lot of torrents you don't actually need because of its descentralized nature. They could have just saved some metadata (like name) and magnet hashes into a sqlite db and used them when you start the download (if the torrent is dead, it wouldn't matter anyway) but no, they had to dl hundreds or thousands of actual torrent files. Kinda off topic, but thats also a reason I won't use zeronet, because of its trash implementation it stores 10s of thousands of json files with info that could have been stored in a db instead. Also, regarding tribler, it routes some of its traffic through your pc, a bit like tor, so you might be found liable if it is some shady shit like CP. There was and article about that on torrent freak. They even mention on the site anonimity is not 100% complete.
HEVC kills the fine details and fine grain effect that is only preservable with a *high* bitrate. So any bit-starved HEVC or even AVC encodes (below 2.5 GB per episode) ruins quality. So in other words, if no need for HEVC if your watching 1080 mini encodes.
Personally not into micro`s, I buy high-end so want to watch in high-end. Haven't been impressed with any micros tried for 720 or 1080 so wouldn't bother with micro 4k for movies. Micro anime is ok. Much less compression
As someone who has sought and used/watched HEVC videos since 2-3 years ago, I can confirm that minimum MB/min of good quality videos is the same for both AVC and HEVC. And of course when the same sizes are available, I prefer to download HEVC encoded one due to superior image quality it provides. I personally prefer HEVC mostly because of superior image quality it offers at the same size of AVC, not for its greater compression capabilities and (much(?)) smaller size.
Agree. For me, especially H.264 High 4:4:4 Predictive performs very well on 720/1080 compared with size/quality of H.265. And yeah, x264 has reached a high level of stability and performance after more than 13 years.
The compression ability of HEVC in comparison to AVC has been greatly exaggerated. The added compression comes at the loss of detail/quality, while same quality across the board ends up with similar size results (like 20-40 MB difference in 720p for an anime episode, not the hundreds of MB or GBs in 1080p cases mini-encoders would have you believe).
4KBD is HEVC 10-bit though of course and any 4K encodes should remain as such because only HEVC supports HDR (High Dynamic Range) which is the main benefit of 4K media.
Outside of 4K media, you may as well continue to utilize AVC as most of the groups in the anime scene have done, mainly because while HEVC isn't bad, the encoder that everyone would be using (x265) isn't exactly optimized currently (like 3x encode time for same quality among other concerns), though it is of course making progress.
