You need a VPN that allows you to change server locations.

Published reports say there is no known solution to regional problems with zippy.  It's time to move on.  Clicknupload has been getting some good reports here, and solidfiles is great with multi-downloads.  Take what's freely offered, then move on when it's not.

Right now Free gives 320 KB/s while SolidFiles gives at least 800KB/s. It seems they've capped download speed for free users, though it's much better than the damn limited speed of NitroFlare wich is only 20KB/s!!!

You don't mention the other variable, the number of simultaneous downloads.  sf gives me about 9 files at once at that speed, for a total of 6.4mb/sec, if you can bunch up your downloads.  Multi-downloads work better in a download manager but you could try FF.  I don't know what Free allows.  For singles, clicknupload might be best.
13/06/2019 00:01 — Anonymous
free.fr used to give constant 500 kb/s and solidfiles 1.5 mb/s. clicknupload is the only one with great speed.

Possibilities are endless ...
The best and most powerful multimedia players are K-Lite Codec Pack (Mega), PotPlayer and SMPlayer. Also VLC is too well known to ignore 😉

It's good practice to have 2 media players installed on a system e.g KLCP and PotPlayer or KLCP and SMPlayer 🤟

SMPlayer is a great option for those obsessed with mpv. SMPlayer is a GUI for the award-winning MPlayer, which is a powerful command-line multimedia player. mpv is based on mplayer2, which in turn is based on the original MPlayer. Recently SMPlayer has added support for mpv and can now work with both MPlayer and mpv as multimedia engine. (One can simply change the engine via General tab -> Multimedia engine). Like VLC, SMPlayer is multi-platform. (The thing I like the most, between other features, about it is the fact that it has an official portable version 😀)

One should have no problem watching anime and playing multimedia files by following these recommendations 😇 (Unless their hardware is the problem!)

> One will have no problem watching anime and playing multimedia files by following these recommendations

Except the fact that VLC couldn't even play Hi444pp until recently and still displays it incorrectly (overly dark).

Not to mention there are certain techniques fansubbers are using with typesetting that outright breaks every subtitle renderer except the one used by mpv; which is entirely why all fansubbers recommend only mpv these days.

But yea go with:
mpv or SMPlayer and everything should be smooth sailing.
PotPlayer or MPC-HC or MPC-BE if subs aren't too advanced.
VLC and things should be fine as long as subs aren't too advanced and video isn't Hi444pp

There is absolutely no reason to need or require 2 media players to be installed. If what you're using isn't capable of playing everything on it's own, you're using a terrible product.

Video player debate

Defining terms:

1. A Fansubber: someone speaks Japanese and English and can provide a better translation than the 'professionals' because the fansubber knows anime and manga.  For example: Sora no Woto where the pro missed 6 obvious boob jokes in two episodes.

2. What do you call someone who does not speak Japanese and likes to play with fonts?: An idiot.  Which video player is best for idiots?  Who cares.

There aren't many real fansubbers left.  But there are plenty of idiots.  Plain text that brilliantly tells the story is what we want really want, not horrible scripts with "ASS-art" (there's a term that may catch on).

3. Most powerful video player?: the software that does more and/or does it most efficiently.  It is practically a meaningless concept.  Which brand and model car will get you home safely?  All of them.  Which car is the most powerful?  Who cares.

We'll never know if the anime is great if the translations are poor.  And no one (except an idiot) liked Sword Art because of the fonts.

If you want to call an analogy absurd, you have to explain why it is.  Apparently you can't.

Two players are necessary to see if a problem is the player or the file.

Use a good video player and only download from the best groups and then you wouldn't have that problem to begin with.

How would you know whether an option is bad or good if you don't have at least two of them?

About techniques breaking sub renderers except mpv's, so far mpc-hc (64) has been great with even the craziest subs thrown at it...

Like that experiment some guy did where he completely remade all the video frames of an anime clip out of aegisub drawings. The sub was over 100 MB iirc. It was the result of both genius and madness.

At the end of the day, nothing beats K-Lite Codec Pack.
16/06/2019 09:04 — Anonymous
I am using for years a combo with Potplayer and Megamix configured for optimum quality. Explained settings with base-config at https://anime.my/tutorials/configuring...-decoding/ (btw. how to set links? or rather which language?)

Btw. "good practice" is such a thing. Only true for media players. But since you also recommend a codec pack - installing 2 of them will prob. result in conflicts.
16/06/2019 12:40 — Anonymous
No, it doesn't.
I had K-Lite Codec Pack and VLC in the past and K-Lite Codec Pack and PotPlayer right now, and I have never had any problems.

He means installing 2 separate codec packs can cause issues. Does PP install a codec pack?

In case you're confused for real, not all players install codec packs. For one, vlc doesn't.
17/06/2019 03:10 — Anonymous
You can rely on the installer program to be aware of any issues like other codec packs or shared components, if they were an issue.  I have all video players installed for comparisons and diagnostics purposes and never had a problem with conflicts.

CCCP installer used to delete any previous codecs before install, but that was another world, another time.

19/06/2019 23:10 — Anonymous
Good points, thanks. The other comment about possible conflicts was about installing multiple codec packs, though.

I've installed a few players but k-lite is the only one I use that has its own codec pack. (Never expected issues with any of my other players bc they're not installing system-wide codec packs).

is stuff getting deleted pretty much instantly or within a couple hours on solidfiles? i've noticed it a couple times this week that i've gone to get the latest episodes and i'm getting file not found errors
23/06/2019 19:32 — Anonymous
new stuff + more popular, both dies very quickly. We should seriously think abt encrypting all link location so bots can't collect them.
25/06/2019 02:54 — Anonymous
solidfiles blocked me one time when I was upping a series for an AT request. So I did a test to see if I could put up the rest of the series with nondescript names (like zpart1, zpart2) and what do you know? no prob.

After that I really think SF deletes by names (titles/group names that give away too much info) and not hash.
25/06/2019 20:02 — Anonymous
Idk why encrypting names within archives isn't used for all uploads by default . Maybe admin-sama can chime in? You can even do it on the fly, without writing files to disk if resources are a problem. Still requires some cpu/io overhead and using uncompressed zip files, but that doesn't seem like such a big hurdle. As a bonus you can keep the original file names without the host modifying it.
27/06/2019 13:15 * — admin
Thanks for the info + suggestions.

Some people use the links for streaming purposes and the like, so wrapping them in archives does break that use-case.
I'm not entirely sure if there's strong evidence suggesting that this makes a difference, but I can flip the flag for Solidfiles to see if it makes any difference...
27/06/2019 16:16 — Anonymous
I see, figured as much. You probably have a vps so using hdd doesn't matter that much, but you can also use /dev/shm while carefully watching ram usage or this module here https://github.com/allanlei/python-zipstream  . There probably are other techniques but these are what I know of. Uncompressed doesn't have much cpu overhead so you can read the file once to determine the size, then again to actually upload data without storing in memory. Needs integration with python uploading script, so might not be useful to you.
28/06/2019 02:44 — admin
Thanks for the info.

The upload script already supports streaming 7z creation (e.g. all uploads to Openload do it) - I just flag which hosts get their files wrapped like such.

Aside from network bandwidth, disk I/O is probably the biggest bottleneck on the updates server, which is why streaming is important (most cheap servers only have a single, likely laptop-class, disk). It's probably a little more complicated than you're thinking, since it also needs to support on-the-fly splitting (to deal with file size limits), as well as handling retries when an error occurs, i.e. stream rewinding.
