I use a vpn to get around the the download limit.
[-] PM-me-girl-nudes | 5 points
Another work-around is to restart your router if you live outside the US.
[-] cobalt-green | 3 points
The official megasync client will pause when you hit the limit and then resume whenever it's ready. So it might take some time but you'll get the download eventually. It's not a perfect program but it gets the job done.

New to using MEGA on my iPad and I’m having trouble playing .mkv files, the loading bar will progress fully but the media will not load and when I back out it says transfer cancelled and marks the item as queued. Any suggestions?
Apple doesn't support .mkv, which is a pity as almost all the files here are in mkv containers.You have to install a third party player or convert the files to .mp4.Just one more reason not to buy apple I guess.

VLC on iOS is amazing, especially with browser content syncing
[-] Nowthinkaboutyourdad | 7 points
Use a computer to use mega. Then convert it with like handbrake or whatever.
[-] Sunny_Cakes | 2 points
Well this advice is terrible. Why re-encode? You'll introduce quality loss doing this. /u/HatFinisher just needs to play the files using VLC, else a repackaging with ffmpeg is all that's needed to convert the file to an mp4:
ffmpeg -i input.mkv -acodec copy -vcodec copy output.mp4
No quality loss. Done and done
Thanks...you guys are awesome. I may have downloaded 100 odd gbs because of you.

When encoders remove the grain they are altering the original film as it was.
It depends on a few things. Encoding is like dancing - there are many ways to dance but not all of them look good. Whether or not grain (and how much of it) appears in an encode will depend on the source movie, any filters applied by the encoder, the codec (x264 or x265, etc) and tuning. Grain can be distracting if there's a lot of it but if an encoder removes it too aggressively it can and will also remove fine details.
A notorious example of bad grain removal is the Predator: Ultimate Hunter Edition blu-ray. The studio used DNR (digital noise reduction) to try to remove the grain but it was so aggressive it wiped out much of the fine details. It isn't particularly noticeable for most of the movie but it really stands out in any close-ups of Carl Weathers - his face looks slightly out of focus and has no pores.
The counterpoint to Predator: Ultimate Hunter Edition is Aliens. They also tried to remove the grain but did so with much greater care and had much better results. When the movie was released in the 2000 Alien Anthology dvd set it was covered in grain (a result of the film stock the movie was shot on.) When the Alien Anthology was re-released on blu-ray in 2010 they did the grain removal and the movie looks fantastic.
The look of James Cameron's Aliens, comparatively, may be slightly divisive. Fans will no doubt remember the director's remarks, a few months ago, concerning the film's remaster:
"It's spectacular. We went in and completely de-noised it, de-grained it, up-rezzed, color-corrected every frame, and it looks amazing. It looks better that it looked in the theaters originally. Because it was shot on a high-speed negative that was a new negative that didn't pan out too well and got replaced the following year. So it's pretty grainy. We got rid of all the grain. It's sharper and clearer and more beautiful than it's ever looked."
The statement understandably got people—videophiles especially—riled up, envisioning Aliens DNR'ed into oblivion, much like the recent Predator: Ultimate Hunter Edition. Well, rest easy—not all of the grain has been removed. There are scenes where it's definitely apparent that some noise reduction has been used, but most of the time the image still appears natural and filmic. That is, grain isn't "frozen" in place, and there's none of the smeary, blurry quality you normally associate with heavy-handed DNR. There are a few shots where faces take on a mildly waxy look, but these are thankfully rare. In this case, noise reduction has been used selectively and—for the most part—unobtrusively. The film certainly looks better than it ever has. While fine detail is sometimes limited by the graininess of the original high-speed negative, the leap in clarity from DVD to Blu-ray is immediately appreciable. Black levels aren't quite as tight this time around, but color is strong and there's a nice sense of depth in the 1.85:1-framed picture. (Aliens was the only film to be shot in this ratio. All the others are in 2.39:1.) A solid presentation, overall, but not quite as impressive as Alien.
So, after all that... grain in an encode suggests that the encoder didn't alter the picture much. Further, x265 tends to do a better job of preserving grain than x264. You might ask yourself if you prefer a clearer image no matter what, or if you more strongly prefer watching a film as it was originally seen by audiences.

For the shadowban problem - does your other account have enough karma to post here? 10 comment karma is the minimum otherwise your posts don't show. if you've got the karma you might be getting picked up in the subs spam filter somehow.
[-] harris_kid | 4 points
x265 can get bit rate savings up to about %50-60, however, the codec shines at lower bit rates than higher ones. So your 10gb x264 rip will look exactly the same as a 10gb x265 rip. This is why most x265 torrents are quite small.
It's your choice really.
I think x265 is,realistically, only 20-30% more more efficient so your 10g x264 file will be much better quality than the 3g x265 one.

Is there any way to delete/edit comments that somebody leaves on my upload posts? I only ask because it would be nice to be able to delete comments when people post the decode the link/key for my upload and then post the direct link in the comments. This completely voids my efforts to obfuscate the link and my attempt to try to keep the content available longer before getting reported for DMCA, at least in theory any way. Thanks in advance for any assistance that you may be able to provide. :)
[-] indigo6alpha | 5 points
No, there's no way you can do that. What you can do is report that comment directly to the mods. We will delete the comment and warn the user.
[-] TwiztidJuggla420 | 2 points
Thanks. I replied to his comment nicely asking him to delete the direct link and explaining the situation to him, perhaps he is a new user and don't understand how things work yet. Thanks for the quick reply and helpful information, sir. :)
EDIT: I have never reported anything before. Is it just the report button under all comments that will report it to the mods?
[-] indigo6alpha | 4 points
Is it just the report button under all comments that will report it to the mods?
That won't notify the mods. Send a message directly to /r/megalinks (Use this link as a shortcut).
[-] TwiztidJuggla420 | 4 points
Alright then. Sorry for all the questions. I am still kind of new and inexperienced to Reddit. How would I go about doing that then? Click the button that says "message the moderators" on the /r/megalinks page and explaining the situation or is there a different or more preferred way of doing this? Thanks again, lol.

Yes. Click 'message the moderators' and send a message including the link to your post and a short explanation.

any reason to why base64decode is down?
[-] indigo6alpha | 5 points
Browsers already have a base64 encoder/decoder built-in. Use these bookmarks to invoke those built-in functions:
javascript:function c(){}c.prototype.get=function(){var a="";window.getSelection?a=window.getSelection().toString():document.selection&&"Control"!=document.selection.type&&(a=document.selection.createRange().text);return a};c.prototype.set=function(a){if(window.getSelection){var b=window.getSelection();b.rangeCount&&(b=b.getRangeAt(0),b.deleteContents(),b.insertNode(document.createTextNode(a)))}else document.selection&&document.selection.createRange&&(b=document.selection.createRange(),b.text=a)};try{var d=new c,e=atob(d.get());d.set(e)}catch(a){alert(a.message)};
javascript: try{var sText=prompt("Enter base64 encoded string: "),decodedText=atob(sText);prompt("Base64 decoded string:",decodedText)}catch(a){alert(a.message)};
JS code snippets I've posted are minified. I've added the source links for reference.

My download speed constantly drops close to 10 kbp/s for hours despite being able to consistently pull off 2 gb/s. What's wrong with Mega's servers? Is this their new way of limiting bandwidth for free users?
I find when that happens, I have to restart the mega client, and it goes right back up. Issue in their programing I think.
[-] doot_doot_doot_doo | 2 points
they say bandwidth can be restricted due to overall bandwidth levels as well as bandwidth on speicific shares. Could just be a case of the file(s) you're grabbing are high traffic ones and it's kicking the limit in
[-] AlphaGamer753 | 0 points

Which VPN do you recommend?, I can pay for one around $10 monthly.
[-] isaacbarron02 | 5 points
I use NordVPN. Bought the two year subscription at ~$3/month. Works like a charm!
The more servers the vpn company has the better.Otherwise it only takes one person in the world to use up the 5g available for each ip address every 6 hours.Probably cheaper to buy Mega pro lite if you just want to get around the download limit.

Does MegaDownloader not work anymore? I use it exclusively to dl files larger than 5gb but it doesnt seem to recognize the new urls mega is using.
If it's not just me being stupid, i would welcome a method to download large mega files, since jdownloader also is not able to.

they fixed the error/loophole back in early autumn or so. Have to pay, or change IP address every 4-6 gigs now.

Does anyone know what the minimum specification are for playing X265? I tried googling and honestly, I couldn't really find anything definitive. Are any of the tv add ons like Firesticks or Chrome's dealy able to play x265 from an SD or on board storage?
[-] TRUMP2016BUILDWALL | 1 points
Minimum specs you want if buying new is hardware decoding. Fire stick does 8 bit hevc I think. The new fire tv 4k does 10 bit 4k hevc, I have one it works great to supplement our shield
is there any other sites that post megalinks too? Or just this subreddit?

Looks like it already came out https://www.dvdsreleasedates.com/movies/6474/It-2017.html
so basically, will my low range tv even be able to play 10bit files in a way where it's watchable?
Is there a new mega limit or something? Look this, I have been downloading some files with size <5GB, but the amount of these exceeds 5GB, maybe the limit warning exceeded is only for 5GB+ files?. or I was just lucky this time.

So I've posted about this before and I guess no one gave a damn or saw it.. anyway I've spent countless hours creating a base64 decoder and Encoder.. I'm not a programmer but I learned how do these stuff. I've been using this site for a while and It makes my life easier and you'll make mine easier with all these stuff you all post.
Anyway please consider checking it out. Let me know what you like or hate. and issues you have.
EDIT: This version has an issue fixed. http://links.snahp.it/344Base64%20Encoder%20and%20Dcoder

Upvotes and feedback are poor metrics. If you want to see how many people actually grab your offerings put the link on snahp.it. When you visit that snahp.it link later it will show you a visit counter after you get past the password/captcha.
Remember the 1/9/90 rule. Using snahp.it has shown me that it's fairly accurate. My most-popular submission has (last time I checked) 202 upvotes and most of the replies were to ask about compatibility problems. Snahp.it visits? 1305. Give it a try.
