[DISCUSSION] Weekly General Discussion Thread [11/02]

Can anyone explain the best way to share what I have? I have lists of my content and i want to just post them and take requests, but i'm not sure of the best way. Do i just upload it all to one mega account? multiple? Is there a guide to sharing ?

[-] igotsomegreypoupon | 3 points | Feb 14 2018 13:17:27

You could post a list in the request thread (make a note that it's an offer not a request) since separate offer posts usually get deleted. Upload to multiple different mega accounts since it offers a bit more protection if you get too many takedown requests

Be aware that someone will likely request half your collection unironically

[-] eletroguy | 3 points | Feb 14 2018 16:07:56

Alright, thanks! I'll get my lists ready and try to post it at the start of the next request thread

Anyone interested on The Mummy trilogy MULTi Bluray REMUX?

[-] IgnoreMyName | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 10:52:17

Trilogy include Scorpion King or the actual 3rd Mummy movie? (Scorpion King makes for a better trilogy imo)

[-] Cqouta | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 18:28:07

Am confused. Could you provide imdb links?

[-] IgnoreMyName | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 19:04:13

The Mummy, The Scoprion King, The Mummy Returns

[-] Cqouta | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 19:08:57

It costs nearly half of what I paid for the trilogy. Unfortunately, I do not have it, sorry.

[-] IgnoreMyName | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 19:17:54

What do you mean? Trilogy with the Scorpion King is cheaper than the one with Tomb of the Dragon Emperor?

Also, it's okay. I have the trilogy on Blu-ray. It's just that those 3 movies go together much more so than the 3rd Mummy movie.

[-] Cqouta | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 19:36:53

The one I bought costed me $14

Hey, I'm having problems, I installed the MegaSync app, but I didn't get the transfer quota and storage space rewards.

[-] igotsomegreypoupon | 4 points | Feb 14 2018 17:32:41

It can take a few days to apply. If you've had a Mega account previously it might not even apply at all, I was never successful in getting it to activate.

[-] ic_97 | 1 points | Feb 15 2018 12:58:38

Same happened with me and it has been over 10 days

I guess I didn't... I clicked it from the profile achievements, where it redirects me to the Megasync installer. I then installed it.

Meta means self aware. It's mostly for updates in reference to the subreddit, NOT general questions. General questions are for the discussion thread (which was made months ago because of the influx of meta posts).

[-] cswagsk | 2 points | Feb 14 2018 19:09:24

Recently I've been getting this error on megadownloader every time I try to download something. It says:

Error getting file list from shared folder -

System.Net.WebException: The operation has timed out at

System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream(TransportContext& context)

at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetRequestStream()

at Megadownloader.Conexion.SendJSON(String URL, String JSON, String ContentType, Boolean SendAppid

Has anybody had this error, and found a solution? Any help is greatly appreciated.

[-] RhubarbGin | 2 points | Feb 18 2018 15:05:46

i've been requesting Lucha Underground for like 2 months with no success- i'm willing to look at obtaining via torrenting- utorrent/bitorrent etc but not very familiar with it all. Is it like Limewire/Frostwire was back in the day?

Any tips/advice? I managed to get season 3 from here but no luck with seasons 1 or 2 and i know they are on US netflix so if someone was able to post the web address to each episode is there an web downloader/app i could use to get a copy of the video? (How do people do the amazon webrips for the grand tour for example?)

Thanks for any help/advice. Sorry if its posted in the wrong place i couldnt think of where else to ask who might be knowledgeable

[-] Boilermaker1025 | 1 points | Feb 12 2018 03:00:48

I'm trying to download the IMDb Top 250 Movie Collection posted a few months ago by /u/unitingrelyt and have run into an issue. For roughly 90% of the movies attempted so far, the status in Jdownloader shows as "Server is Busy" or "Resource temporarily not available". Is there something wrong with the download or is the issue on my end?

[-] exhippy | 1 points | Feb 12 2018 04:13:45

Try megadownloader.It works better than jdownloader for mega links.Try & start 10-12 movies at a time as it only seem to check the bandwidth when the download starts so start as many as your pc will handle all at once.

[-] MonoAudioStereo | 2 points | Feb 13 2018 14:38:08

If I restart my PC, will megadownloader resume the download or I will have to download files from the beginning like in MegaSync?

[-] exhippy | 2 points | Feb 13 2018 17:39:56

It resumes.

[-] MonoAudioStereo | 1 points | Feb 13 2018 17:40:23

Thanks.

[-] PopcornInMyTeeth | 1 points | Feb 18 2018 23:26:33

I also just noticed today, mega now says it's a 5gb free limit, though sometimes the let you go over depending on how busy their servers are.

Can potplayer utilize madvr filters?

[-] simplefilmreviews | 2 points | Feb 13 2018 14:48:21

According to the web, yes

[-] SavageAlien | 1 points | Feb 13 2018 20:04:27

Worth noting that your screenshot isn't the default skin, which is also very nice. There's also a lot to pick from on the web.

I've been enjoying Potplayer, but damn it that yellow icon is ugly. It can be customized, but it's an extra step we shouldn't have to take for an otherwise good looking program.

[-] simplefilmreviews | 2 points | Feb 13 2018 20:12:07

Yeah the yellow icon is garbage. Kills me a lil every time I glance at it :(

[-] SavageAlien | 2 points | Feb 13 2018 20:15:30

I used Resource Hacker to give it a blue & white icon. Much nicer.

[-] limitlessabhi | 1 points | Feb 14 2018 22:40:25

For those collecting Linux Iso's for thier home servers with the different aspect ratios, open Matte widesceen etc, and editions such as extended, directors cut, fanedit, unrated etc how do you decide which one to keep?

[-] Cqouta | 1 points | Feb 13 2018 02:08:36

Open matte. I like to see more details that I missed because widescreen cut it out. Just when movies got widescreen releases that allowed me to see more details than full screen

[-] coprax84 | 1 points | Feb 15 2018 16:12:02

When i download mega files from mega(android app) i can't resume after the app is closed, is there any workaround for this?

[-] exhippy | 1 points | Feb 18 2018 03:49:43

There is a link on the right to Mipony.I haven't used it but i have heard good things about it.Being a windows user I use megadownloader/jdownloader2 but give Mipony a try.You will need some sort of a downloader if you want to resume mega downloads.

[-] ShreeCuriosity | 1 points | Feb 18 2018 07:19:59

Thanks, i'll give it a try.

[-] -Psychox | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 10:28:13

Do MEGA have a download limit even on personal files and not sharable ones? I need to backup my data and download it ASAP. It's size is more than 40gb

[-] HugoHughes | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 17:32:38

Hi guys, little help here please. New to this sub.

I've recently bought a 4K TV and would like to try and grab a movie from here and play it on there. I'm looking at DUNKIRK at the moment, it's nearly 50GB's. I've never downloaded anything that size before.

My question is this, how would I play it on my TV? I don't think my laptop connected to the TV would run it smoothly. I have the DELL XPS 9350 laptop, although it's a very good laptop, playing a 4K movie might be pushing it too much, especially since YouTube 4K is choppy to play.

Now I do have a PS4 Pro, which I assume could handle the movie easily? But how would I get the movie on there?

Thanks.

[-] Sunny_Cakes | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 21:06:47

I'm pretty sure there's a plex app for ps4. Install it on there and install the plex server on your PC.

[-] HugoHughes | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 23:27:17

Thanks, i'll look into this :)

[-] Sunny_Cakes | 1 points | Feb 17 2018 23:31:56

I looked up the supported codecs on the ps4, and it seems like it supports most of them, with exception of h265 video and DTS audio. If your movie is encoded in either of those, your laptop will be relied on the transcode the codec into a ps4 compatible format, which may not be feasible since you said your laptop isn't very powerful.

[-] RhubarbGin | 1 points | Feb 18 2018 15:08:19

i've been putting all the 4k stuff i've got from here on an 3.0 external hdd and plugging in to the 4k tv's 3.0 slot directly and its played everything i've thrown at it from here. Got deadpool, interstellar, It, Bladerunner 2049 and Blue Planet (tv series) to try out and they all work and look great alough Interstellar defaults to the spanish language track so i have to play with the audio options but its a minor niggle

[-] HugoHughes | 1 points | Feb 18 2018 15:23:30

That's a great idea, thank you!

I ran into an error on nofile.io where I need to do the captcha.

Only it doesn't show anything, only the box that says Human Verification Required, please take a second to fill out a captcha below.

Tried clearing cookies, different browsers, disabled blocks, no anti-virus either.

[-] igotsomegreypoupon | 1 points | Feb 18 2018 23:41:09

There's no captcha implemented on nofile - ran into this error a while back when uploading. sent them an email and got no response so don't think they really care.

[-] Plays_You_Wonderwall | 1 points | Feb 18 2018 23:56:06

Thanks for the response. Was driving me nuts. How did you get around it?

I'm using a basic free VPN to basically download the JDownloader links from nofile and then turning off VPN to download.

[-] igotsomegreypoupon | 1 points | Feb 19 2018 00:05:33

Didn't manage to get around it directly - uploaded my file elsewhere and waited for whatever blacklisting they had active to wear off

Why zippyshare? Zippyshare is the worst.

[-] SavageAlien | 6 points | Feb 13 2018 20:08:38

What's wrong with zippyshare? I've actually noticed fewer post have included mirror links to zippyshare which I found to be handy on certain occasion. So if you could enlighten me I'd appreciate the info.

[-] greatflicks | 3 points | Feb 15 2018 22:42:03

zippyshare using Jdownloader is a nice alternative to Mega, I appreciate the effort of members who post both.

[-] SavageAlien | 2 points | Feb 16 2018 04:09:28

Sadly I've noticed a lot of recent posts have stopped offering alternatives, zippyshare or otherwise. (Though I understand it might be time consuming to upload twice)
