I’m planning on getting some recertified Seagate Ironwolfs from SeverPartDeals very soon
Well since nobody can name a tracker with any AV1 content, I will for anyone finding this post in the future.
As mentioned in the OP, LST.gg has an uploader, KIMJI, who encodes western cartoons, TV, and movies in 1080p AV1. I personally love the quality and file size of his encodes. There’s some other AV1 content there as well. Several WhiskeyJack encodes have been uploaded, although I don’t know where they originate.
I really wish I knew where to find anime in AV1 still.
I love KIMJI encodes.
Yea I’ve heard that grain synthesis can be tough to get right with AV1. I’ve seen people (that know much more than me) talk about ways to make it better though.
I think Av1an gets better results.
I do think that’s why people like it more for cartoons and anime.
Any release groups you see consistently?
I’m well aware of the tradeoffs. Besides, encodes of remuxes and full disks can easily be better quality than web-dls, and with av1 or HEVC can be smaller file size too.
How would you get through the install though? Are there any simple solutions without any graphics output?
What if I’ve never built a headless system and am afraid of not having easy access to a GUI?
MAM is a private torrent tracker with tons of ebooks. They definitely have a lot of magazines, but maybe not the most expansive collection around. They do interviews to join regularly.
That link just takes me to a kbin login page.
This guy really thinks watch parties and listening to music with friends over is illegal or unethical or some shit.
Love everything from Brad Neely but haven’t been able to find this since reading about it several months ago. Thanks for reminding me I’ll have another look.
People have been telling them that for months.
Yea sometimes I’ll exclude the .nfo from my downloads. Thankfully the tracker I’m on now disallows any files that aren’t media in their uploads.
That feature makes sense to aggregate search results from multiple public trackers, but if you (like me) use private trackers then it’s almost always easier to just go to the actual website for your search. Not to mention any automation software such as the *arr stack make that feature obsolete. It’s definitely a cool feature, but not useful for everyone.
Doesn’t Trash Guides prefer larger files though? Iirc if you just do everything as they recommend you’ll always be grabbing the highest quality stuff available, which is the opposite of what this person wants.
Because AI can be very good at things like that and it’s often something that people struggle with on their own?
That makes total sense from a corporate perspective. Maybe I would just love to be the one the pushes us a little bit closer to the enduser having control of their data and hardware. Its probably a pipe dream though lol.
