woohoo?

 

[Mr. Ected]

It says "open registrations", but I can't seem to create an account, just in case it closes later. Doesn't matter now, though. Anyone else having problems?

If you want one, and I can PM you an invite code and we can see if that works.

PM Me and I'll get one out to you.

Yes!!!!

 

[NutterButter]

Is demonoid just a private bittorrent site?

 

[Quez]

Let me know when there is a movie out that is worth downloading. It seems like there hasn't been a movie worth a crap since Wolf & American Hustle.

 

[Psychopav]

Why is this better than pirate bay?

have you tried xxx-men or Saving Ryan's Privates?

There's a lot than just regular movies on there.

Plus tons of books, magazines, comics, etc

 

[Sarnoff]

Why is this better than pirate bay?

Once it gets back up to fully running, in general demonoid's a lot better curated with the torrents. Pirate Bay might have 50 different torrents of a film, 20 will be the same source file submitted by different people hoping for credit (which means if you pick to download one, you can't connect to other peers who have the exact same file just under a different name), 10 will be faulty/out-of-sync, 5 will be in some obscure format, 5 will be in foreign languages, 1 will have a virus, 2 or 3 will be fake, a couple won't be fully seeded, and the rest will have some other issue making it not the one you really wanted.

Demonoid will have fewer total torrents available, but each one will be exactly right and work. Never fakes, never viruses, never sync issues, never format issues, the subtitles always work, etc. Ones with problems don't show up.

I have an account but I never saw any advantage over other sites. I haven't had the issues Sarnoff mentions. You get to know the good creators and just get those (YIFY, for example)

But I'll check it out

Yeah, that's what I've been doing, YIFY, EZTV, etc... I go waaaaay back to AXXO, but still sometimes you gotta weed through a bunch of bad hits to find the good one. Plus they're not always consistent, sometimes EZTV uses MP4 or AVI which are fine, but one in a while they'll pump out an MKV and my PS3 won't play it. Demonoid will usually have the same source the other releasers have, but you don't have the other ones clogging the search results. It's just about consistency, and Demonoid used to have it and hopefully will again.

I pirate a lot of content, so maybe it's just an issue of volume. It took me four or five tries to get a version of "Monuments Men" I could watch on my PS3, between .MKV files, Cinavia-protected files (PS3 refuses to play those, too, and you never know until 20 minutes into the movie, it's not always listed in the comments as having it), a mis-synced version, and then finding one that had the hardcoded subs for just the German speaking parts (and not the whole film) in English (as the PS3 does not do separate subtitle files well either). Finally I pulled the other streaming box out of the other room and used that in place of the PS3 so I could play a Cinavia protected version that met the rest of the criteria. I think I clicked through 20 or 30 search results and didn't find a torrent of the film that hit everything I needed.

Maybe move away from the PS3. I run Plex server on an old desktop I bought for $100 and it streams 1080p to multiple devices easily, and plays every file I've ever had.

I ditched the PS3 (wasn't playing video games on it with any sort of regularity) and went with WDTV Live and PS3 Media Center media hub on my iMac.

Best decision I ever made. I got frustrated with the same issues as Sarnoff outlined above, and never looked back. Format is just about never an issue, it plays anything you throw at it without transcoding.

I do, which is what I used, but still had a problem finding one with hardcoded subs for the foreign language parts only, and in sync, on Pirate Bay.

I use a PS3 for everything. Here are some hints

1) if you download a .mkv file, simply convert it to mp4 and it will play on the ps3. There are simple free programs online that you can download to do this

2) if you don't want to convert, then download the PS3 media server, it can play MKV files on your ps3.

3) when you are looking for subtitles for the foreign only parts, here is what you do

A) go to subscene.com and download the srt file for your movie that is for the foreign parts only

B) rename the file exactly the same as your movie file and store in same directory

C) play the file through the ps3 media server software and it will add the subs on the fly

3) for cinavia, there is no easy fix but there is a work around. When the 20 minute mark pops up, and you get the water mark, exit the movie and just change the date on the ps3 and simply restart the movie. It will pick up right where you left off. Do this each time.

Now a question for you. What device do you have that ignores Cinavia? I would like to get it.

 

[NewlyRetired]

Actually I will open that question up to everyone since people who torrent must be streamers.

What is the best device I can get today that will allow me to stream mkv, mp4, and avi and also ignore Cinavia?

Now a question for you. What device do you have that ignores Cinavia? I would like to get it.

I have PS3 Media Server. I also have a very fast computer. Yet I can't get streaming to work fast enough from my Network Attached Storage device, which is the big server which stores the terabytes of movies I've downloaded, to the PC running media server, then after transcoding back through the network to the PS3. I think using the network in multiple directions simultaneously is slowing me down.

The device I use that plays Cinavias fine is the Asus O!Play Air, which is nowhere near as nice in functionality as a Roku but works just fine enough for my limited needs.

Has anyone got a warning of any kind? It says they sent out 1.2 mil last year.

[None_More_Black]

I have gotten multiple warnings but nothing ever seems to happen. Seems like games or movies near release date are targets. I got a warning for some Borderlands dlc and Prometheus. I mostly use torrents for audiobooks and have never gotten a warning for one.

Who is your provider?

 

[None_More_Black]

Comcast. If I downloaded every new decent movie that came out I believe Comcast would boot me. I don't dowload that much really popular new stuff (mostly older audio books) and I been flagged at least 10 times over the past 4 years.

 

[fatness]

Is Comcast still throttling p2p downloading?

 

[None_More_Black]

I have not noticed throttling but I only have a 30mbps connections. I said in another thread that I am using 1.5 terrabytes of data a month from quite a bit of seeding and never get any warnings about that.

Server too busy

The action you requested could not be completed because the server is too busy.
Please try again in a few minutes

None of the links (direct or magnet) work in qbittorrent. Gonna stick with my regular stuff.

Anyone have a demonoid invite code? I would take a PM. I had an account a while back, but forgot the username.

Thanks.

Nevermind. Found it.

 

[simsarge]

Just got through spending tons of and time cleaning out my computer from a crap ton of viruses and malware. Never had any problems until i started using Demonoid again after a year or better. I have no way of verifying this was the root cause, but it seems rather coincidental. Anybody else have any problems with them? I always downloaded right from the site, should I be using a torrent server instead? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Also, for NMB, when you get your audiobooks how do you play them back? Are they chaptered or all lumped in together?

I fire this up before I ever log into anything that says torrent on it, seems to keep the unwanted crap out. If you're going to wrap up, might as well wear 2.

Infrequently, been pleased with KAT.

Anyone have an efficient way to download on to an android device? I used adownloader last year with no problems but now they got rid of the built in search engine. You can Google search through the app but a lot of the KAT sites seem fake and there are tons of pop-ups which render my tablet useless until I close the tab.There has to be an easier way to get the job done. I've tried utorrent app and it has the same issues.

 

[chauncey]

I saw that popcorn time was shut down recently. That was a pretty slick interface. Looks like they have something called butter that is in the works. It is basically a Netflix-skinned torrent streamer for dummies.

 

[flapgreen]

Kissdrama got shut down, too. I think they were all the same company. Sucks because I wasn't having to download much for a long time. Most of it was streaming on there.

I guess I tend to go look for older stuff, not up to the minute releases.
