Is there another safe place to discuss piracy if it gets removed from Lemmy ?

Hi all,

I have been re-encoding using handbrake’s presets (Matroska hevc 480p/1080p) and results are good for the most part, some issues here and there. I started trying out ffmpeg with cuda and hevc_nvenc and p7 preset. Video quality looks way better but audio is very bad. I am using aac 128k and the audio is very compressed and quite frankly hurts my ears. I started looking into the handbrake options and there’s auto pass through and stereo downmixing, etc. I tried reading the ffmpeg documentation but there is a lot there and I’m not really sure what I’m doing.

tldr; Anyone have tips on getting good quality audio encoding (aac) from my bluray rips?

I like audiobooks on audible and my free trial has expired, I forgot to save some files through libation, so now, where can I pirate the audiobooks on audible?

  1. Audiobook bay doesn't have the books I need
  2. PirateBay has the book but not the same voice (I am a sucker for this man's voice, I even said as much in the review)

I'm fairly new to piracy overall, but I feel like I understand the basics of how to avoid my ISP and such. A family member who's in college texted me the other day asking how she could pirate textbooks and I realized I'd never thought about it. Any tips for pirating textbooks? Safe sites?

RWBY all seasons (lemmy.world)

Hey guys, first post on this community.

I'm looking for a way to "download" all seasons of RWBY somewhere. I can source some of the more recent episodes, but not the older ones.

Anyone who could aid in this venture I would greatly appreciate it!

The other community (!piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com) is mostly the old Reddit one. It's more active than this one.

I've sailed the high seas for a while starting with Emule, through MIRC, torrenting, mega(upload) and many more.

Lately I've been using a p4s service on plex but they kept having issues so I stopped it. I don't mind paying but I want

  • the latest episodes of my content as it comes out
  • great quality with little to no compression
  • english subtitles, original voice (whether english, japanese...)
  • 100% uptime.

I'm assuming my p4s service was not downloading new episodes by hand, so there must a (set of) OSS software to automatically download new episodes of a predefined set of TV shows / anime, add subtitles, and make it available as a plex server or similar no? I'm a software developer so not affraid to run a few docker containers on a local server
