4K is the next big thing in TVs, and 4K videos are starting to pop up everywhere. But 4K video takes up a ton of space, which makes it hard to download and stream in the best quality possible. Thankfully, one technology is changing that, and it’s known as High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), or H.265.
It’s taking a while for this new technology to become ubiquitous, but it’s happening—4K UHD Blu-rays use HEVC, K-Lite Codec Pack (Mega) and also VLC 3.0make HEVC and 4K videos more watchable on your PC, and the iPhone can even save recorded videos in HEVC to save storage space.
Damn.... Lol. Maybe you shouldn't browse in public places then. Some people just dont get the appeal of the amazing diverse story telling of anime. Been hooked since the 80`s. Mobile Suit Gundam and Akira made me an anime lifer

I'm just about to comment on the skin for the site Iirc this site got elsie skin which is almost the same color scheme as julie, is it possible to bring it back? or using userscript extension to change the skin if not possible
I'm more inclined to use it than julie due to the pic on left side is easy to locate while i'm browsing in public, we've got sensitive moron who thinks every anime is like for paedophile due to several preacher's propaganda
using elsie (or is it ouka?), the pic is harder to locate due to darker color and the image is not repeated down to the bottom (again, it's from my memory)
It said "We're preparing your download, please wait..." a few hours ago but now almost all Solidfiles links today only gives "This file/folder could not be found." I wonder if their server broken or something.
Hi Admin, i have a small issue with maneuvering through the pages.
When i click "Older Entries", i am brought to the next page without problems. However, pressing on the "Newer Entries" does not bring me back to the previous page but to the first page instead.
can you do something about how search handles special characters? so searching Pokemon will also pull up results matching Pokémon, instead of doing separate searches for both (as it is now).
While the suggestion of OP is somewhat meaningless, screenshots/mediainfo/etc are really helpful as they let us know exactly what is going to be downloaded (considering the fact that these important info are absent from absolute majority of posts on sources like Nyaa).
Your first question are incredibly dumb. imo. "what's the reasoning behind allowing only English subs". It's already on FAQ where this site purpose is providing English-translated anime with direct download links in the first place. You don't need another reason. That's basically same as asking "why nyaa.si only allowing Eastern Asian content." "I found strange is that some non-english fansubs posted torrents it in the English category" Some non-English fansubs or fanrips are still putting English subs in their releases, it's called dual-subs or multiple-subs. Both of them are still containing English subs and allowed to post it under English-translated Anime category on nyaa.si.
The notion of processing files without doing any uploading (well, beyond seeding the torrents back) has occurred to me in the past. What categories were you interested in mostly? The non-English anime categories? A few things: - disk I/O can be costly and torrents aren't exactly disk friendly. AT's updates run on fairly low end servers, almost always with just a single disk, and not a lot of RAM to cache around it, so there isn't much I/O capacity available. The current updates server is rather overpowered though, so this isn't an issue at the moment (but I may decide to move to a weaker server to save costs in the future) - I'm not sure how useful the screenshots/mediainfo/etc are by itself. AT is primarily a DDL mirror after all, but do you believe it'd be that useful? - the script is currently geared towards anime. Simply fetching from other categories isn't a problem by itself (beyond what's mentioned already), but I don't feel that as much value add can be provided for those (for example, auto categorisation is done by trying to parse the English title, looking for common English words etc). There'd also need to be some work needed to get the website's UI to show categories, but that's relatively simple - there's a maintenance cost for processing more stuff too, e.g. increased frequency/likelihood of stuff breaking
As for just listing the entries as skipped, I'm not sure what the point is? You may as well just browse Nyaa instead.
One thing I found strange is that some non-english fansubs posted torrents it in the English category, sometimes to get more seeders, sometimes as a mistake, then got listed here. Because of that I first trought they are allowed here.
Everything posted to the English anime category from sources Nyaa/Anidex/TokyoTosho is listed here. AT doesn't accept submissions directly and hence doesn't really have any rules as to what's "allowed". Rather, what's "allowed" is what's permitted by the rules and moderation of the sources. Miscategorisation happens, as you've mentioned, and means that they show up here incorrectly, but these usually do get corrected.
I got a bit worried when I found there is a MD5 based captcha validation here: isn't it insecure? MD5 is pretty fast to crack, so one can just try to crack it like a password. Isn't better to do it using an AJAX call?
It's just a CAPTCHA image - it's not meant to be highly secure. I'd be surprised if today's CV technology couldn't crack it (the image isn't that secure after all). Or you could just use one of those cheap human CAPTCHA solving services (going rate is around US$0.50 per 1000 solves). The code is there just to be a fast convenient way for the user to see whether their input is correct without invoking a bunch of network calls. I'm not a fan of CAPTCHAs, so the idea is to make it as painless as possible. The check is not required, as in, you can still submit stuff with Javascript disabled, and the server has to validate it anyway. As you've pointed out, you could just brute force the MD5 hash, and it wouldn't even take that long. But chances are, it's computationally hard enough that it isn't worth bothering, just to post some spam (and I can always increase the number of rounds if necessary).
Or you could just reigster an account. CAPTCHAs aren't presented to logged in users.
You are free to start your own site instead of bitching about free service.

It's not in the FAQ and I searched the last ±10 pages from the comments: what's the reasoning behind allowing only English subs? It's quite strange because releases that include English and other languages are allowed. If the reasoning is that it increases too much the number of entries to be fetched how about making restrictions? Don't mirror the files (which seems is the most resource intensive operation here) but still do other functions like listing, taking screenshots and extract subs. Or make it work like skipped releases, just list those releases and allow requests in comments. One thing I found strange is that some non-english fansubs posted torrents it in the English category, sometimes to get more seeders, sometimes as a mistake, then got listed here. Because of that I first trought they are allowed here. Also, not related with the above, I got a bit worried when I found there is a MD5 based captcha validation here: isn't it insecure? MD5 is pretty fast to crack, so one can just try to crack it like a password. Isn't better to do it using an AJAX call?
