marketingman posted:As someone working within one of the worlds largest dry loop implementations, I can assure you it's not a great idea. So, so, sooooo many issues that can happen. Troubleshooting made all that much more complex because of no dial tone. I guess if your root telco is the one offering the dry loop you will have an easier time at it though. It's really weirdly amusing that this attitude is throughout the US (and that most people haven't heard of it) cause in Australia this is offered by almost every ISP. It's called a Naked DSL plan here, in that you don't have a phone line bundled with it. ISPs tend to offer it at $10 more per month than the bundled offering, but obviously you then don't pay the $30/month for phone line rental to bundle. Others let you bundle it with VOIP for less than a dedicated phone line. I'm on it, for example - it's great.

urbancontra posted:I think the problem here is more that broadband in general in the US is poo poo, and that's where the attitude comes from. Ahahahaha you're calling US broadband poo poo in comparison to AU broadband. Cute. Back on topic, what is the limitation that is stopping long-directory-name files from being post-processed completely? I find that they sometimes unzip but then fail to relocate to the completed directory and be renamed cause their filenames are too long. Is there any way to overcome this issue or is it an issue with unrar.exe or something?

td4guy posted:That's an operating system or file system issue. I know that NTFS simply won't let a directory name + filename be more than 256 characters long. There's nothing you can do about that other than not unrar long-named stuff into a long-named subdirectory. Oh I feel really stupid. I've hit that error before in unrelated tasks too  marketingman posted:Ii don't live in the US and ii work for an iisp in Australia.  Well played. If you think about it I'm sure you'd knowed what isp I'm with. Naked seems to work fine for me although yeh diagnosing it can be a bit of a bitch without a dial tone.

AlphaDog posted:I do have one stupid newbie question though. If I downloaded something and sabnzbd is saying "Repair failed, not enough repair blocks", I'm pretty much hosed, right? I tried manually unraring everything, but that failed too. I've tried "retrying" over a couple of days and that doesn't work either. There's no point going to a different indexing site and grabbing a new .nzb because they're all pointing to the same source, right? try using an external par2 repairer that tells you how many blocks each file has and how many you're short, then googling the file names of the low-hanging fruit to find alternate sources.

Please don't do that, rikatix. If you think you are in grey territory, just don't do it. It'll ruin the thread for the rest of us who aren't retarded.

You could manually search for individual parts using binsearch or. At a stretch, some other format (torrent, google) and then use a manual par2 repairer?

dj_pain posted:Also If you are australian and you are on internode/iinet use there newservice as you get about 35 days retention for free. Uh Internode's is just straight up Astraweb with all the perks. A little bit better than 35 days retention. The only limit is 8 connections but that's fine for anyone here.

wolrah posted:I got in touch with duz and he added me to the project, so my updates to nzbdstatus are now on AMO. Unfortunately at the moment they're still hidden away in the "other versions" like all the 2.0 releases, but 2.0b4 is the current code as of now. Can you please make it work for all versions of the new nzbs.org skins? It only works in default at the moment but I prefer dark classic.

nap.app posted:It sounds like they are saying they use 810p because it is higher quality than 720p in the same file size? It also sounds like they use filters to improve the quality? It sounds like they might be trying to touch the (apparent) fact that anamorphic resolutions use less bandwidth for the same quality of video than non-anamorphic resolutions. I seem to recall reading this when reading about some guy who was trying to push 720p through 500kbps of video data. Here is a presentation by the guy who did the above which gives a bunch of 'best practice' tips for h.264 encoding and the 8th last slide of the presentation touches on using anamorphic resolutions to save bandwidth for a given quality. Essentially, padding the top and bottom rather than having a non-anamorphic resolution yields better quality results for a given bandwidth or, equivalently, less bandwidth for a given quality level. In practice, that means that 1280x720 video stretched to 1440 yields an 810 vertical resolution. Hence encoding it at 810 vertical pixels per frame (an anamorphic ratio to 1440) even if the actual video is 600 vertical pixels high. I could completely be wrong because of the dodgy translation but that's what they seem to be trying to touch on to me.

Bug: If you move something newly added up the queue whilst it's still in the 'checking' phase, it will drop back to the bottom once it changes from checking to queued.

NewsGroupDirect have created free unlimited access for their block accounts to use, apparently no strings attached? You just need to change the NNTP server Link here They've also got 1TB blocks for $7.

Keito posted:The Sonarr team definitely has some kind of agreement in place with TVDB that they've settled on years back, but the details have not been made public as far as I'm aware. They maintain a TVDB caching proxy/mirror they call Skyhook that all Sonarr queries go through, so you'd think this would make it easier for them to migrate elsewhere but I don't think any effort has been put towards enabling other information providers. It sounds like there's a ripe opportunity for providing a MITM and translation layer for intercepting sonarr TVDB requests and mapping them to another provider.

Quixzlizx posted:Thanks for the explanation, I didn't know that happened. But that would explain why certain indexers have nzbs indexed that others don't, but it wouldn't explain why certain indexers have their already indexed nzbs fail to complete more often than other indexers, right? The same release may be posted/reposted on Usenet multiple times in different groups (look for something like “a.b.[stuff]” or “alt.bin.[stuff]”). Analogous to having a file in multiple different folders on your hard drive. A takedown against one copy won’t affect others in that instance.

Jel Shaker posted:can i ask what apps that people are using for watching video on their iphone? Yeh, downloading locally all depends on what iOS client you are using and whether it supports downloads. For example, Finamp does for audio but it only does audio, not video. My solution was to get the VLC app and just use that. You can log in via safari and use the 3 dots > download, then either move it to the 'VLC' folder in Files or just open the file in VLC. Note that copying the stream URL and then pasting into VLC's Network -> Downloads section doesn't work as well, as it doesn't know the file extension and just calls it 'Download.vlc'. You can of course rename it but that's faff. The ability to download is enabled in the admin dashboard of Jellyfin via the web interface for each user. Unfortunately, the VLC app only supports connecting to a Plex server, not a Jellyfin one. Nam Taf fucked around with this message at 13:04 on Apr 30, 2024 |
