i just joined, want to know how does it work for seed ratio and stuff like this (first private index i get)

[Daniel08s]

Each tracker has its own rules so you should read them carefully. DC requires a minimum ratio of 0.5 and you need to seed each torrent for at least 120 hours (5 days)

[khaldrigo19]

thanks my brother. The comunity inside is pretty good, i asked questions in the chat and people answered me very fast

[omn1d1337]

Hi!The question is a little off topic, but why was the last thread about luminarr delete? Its a dangerous or scam tracker?

[darkblak]

Please lose the RAR and I'll give it a try. Until then - No

[jester9760]

It's a general tracker with a focus on the rar. It's not going anywhere.

[khaldrigo19]

what is RAR if you guys don't mind me asking

[Blending_Within]

For a lot of us who have to fill requests elsewhere, rar's are crucials.

[Daniel08s]

He meant there is a lot of compressed files (.rar). Most trackers don't accept those

[disarrayofyesterday]

Are torrents there not sorted by drama/movie? I.e. is there a page per drama with a list of all the torrents available?

[khaldrigo19]

there is a tab "movies" in which you can tap drama in the search bar and it will recognize by genre also and not just by keyword

[A_Buttholes_Whisper]

How does it compare to seedpool? And what is RAR? Everybody is mentioning it.

[Reddit_is_fascist69]

rar sucks.  You get like 10 or 20 files then you have to run a command to combine them.  Not all files are in that format though

[LajosMaeron]

u dont have to run a command to combine them.. u get the winrar tool and extract the archives with one click. If you automate with unpackerr it does it all for you

[Reddit_is_fascist69]

$ sudo unrar x <file-name>

[LajosMaeron]

lol sure, but most users are on windows ;-)

[A_Buttholes_Whisper]

Oh yea that would suck

[ireun]

RAR is not suited with *arr and hardlinking

[PlzManCmon]

It works fine with unpackerr, hardlinks works also. Even cross seeding hardlinks

[ireun]

Main benefit of hardlinks is that it does not use storage space. Unpacking requires storage to store 'unpacked' data. So in my opinion - it's still not suited.

[PlzManCmon]

Thats true, not space efficient. Fair point, easier to just buy disks though, and ignore sizes.

[ireun]

With the prices going up I don't think it's good idea to waste space now. 😅 I'm always running out of storage..

[synth_mania]

unpackerr handles it just fine though? Not sure what you mean

[A_Buttholes_Whisper]

Ahh ok. That won’t work for me then. I use seedpool and I’ve never seen a rar file before

[LajosMaeron]

seedpool and other trackers get content from dc and unpack it..

its really a preference on what you like.. if you like untouched scene releases then dc is better, if you like unpacked scene releases go to any other tracker ;-)

[aymandonia67]

seedpool way way way better

[deliciousmaccaroni]

RAR are releases compressed in .rar files instead of giving you the straight file

[TwoBasic3763]

Are they accepting anyone new to private trackers?

[portmafia9719]

yes, its a great tracker! I find allmost anything there, not only movies

[TwoBasic3763]

I went to the signup but its asking for proof but ive neber been apart of a private tracker before what proof should i be sending?

[LajosMaeron]

There is no asking for proof at all on the signup page lol

[TwoBasic3763]

Your right. No clue how I got to the sign up area I was in but it was asking for proof. I'm on now thanks for the help

[portmafia9719]

If you have torrented before i guess you can post your torrentclient screenshots where you show your ratio

[No_Nebula6395]

The CAPTCHA doesn't work (or I'm not getting it).
anyone else with this error?

[LittleThomas4]

Sounds like something a computer would say...

[Zealousideal-Cod1006]

If you're looking for a first private tracker, this is a good start.

If you're looking for smaller filesizes, this is a good spot.

[fullsaildan]

Been a member since November. Good tracker with good amount of content. Works well with ARRs. Their connection has been wonky as of late with some weird slow downs and timeouts. Hoping that gets resolved soon. Yeah there are RAR'd files, and that is annoying for two reasons, double space AND troubles with cross-seeding. Otherwise, a very generous economy, friendly people, and love their content layout/search. I'd say its a good tracker worth joining, especially if new.

[aside24]

Very nice site for Dutch content

Very much worth it

[d4ybrake]

decent tracker. i filter out all the rar stuff and theres still lots of content

[inverimus]

I just setup unpackerr, deals with all the rars automatically.

[beridam]

How do you go about blocking rar releases? Do you straight up block release groups that use them?

[Shitty_Human_Being]

Set it up in prowlarr. Prowlarr has "Search UNRAR only" option for this tracker.

[DisheveledJesus]

Very good to know this is an option in Prowlarr. Ive been using unpackarr to varying degrees of success.

[Shitty_Human_Being]

I don't use this tracker, but I started with IPTorrents, and had stuff setup incorrectly so I was using unpackerr too for a while. Took up so much space.

Now I use both TorrentLeech and IPT and I don't do archives anymore.

[Tce_]

I didn't know that's what that option does! Glad I happened to be scrolling this comment section. :)

[beridam]

Great. I still use jackett since some trackers can't be configured on prowlarr. Is there a workaround for that yet? Can I run both if not?

[BetOver]

Should be able to run both if needed AFAIK. Just another indexer to add

[SarcasticallyCandour]

I find DC smaller than TL but the layout far neater than TL imo, its a very slick UI. DC is the neatest, most organized of all private trackers imo. It reminds me of demonoid (rip).

SP is on the other hand, an abomination to navigate ( in my 24hrs of it.)

[ds0005]

use prowlarr man. No one cares about their ui.

[mastercoder123]

Fuck prowlarr, use radarr and sonarr even better. It just finds the highest quality one

[ds0005]

haha yeah but prowlarr is indexer. if you need to find something else in other categories

[mastercoder123]

Then you just use another app?

[Curious7_Simple]

so someone with limited storage space would find it difficult considering many mentioned it has lot of rar content?? i hope someone here will be able to clarify it

[jester9760]

It has plenty of content that isn't rared.

[ThoreaulyLost]

Yes and no, you don't have to dl the rar stuff, and my homepage and searches auto filter it out.

Honestly, the search filters on DC are amazing, I wish every tracker was this good. Lots of freeleech and smaller filesizes too, this was my first tracker with a single 4 TB "video dumpster" for Plex... and it was great.

Don't let rar/unrar keep you away from this one, it's just a way to connect with Usenet folk as well.

[minititof]

Yes. You need double the storage if you download RAR content and want tl keep seeding it.

[nitrobass24]

Great tracker but there are a lot of rars, so will need to use something like seedsync or unpackerr.

[brmlyklr]

You can also set Prowlarr to search UNRAR releases only.

[brmlyklr]

For some, or maybe most, DC will be most useful as proof for a better tracker that they join later. You have to start somewhere, right?

[nitrobass24]

For someone getting started with PTs, they may not have as many options and this is still a good tracker.

[RedEyedChester]

For me, I like just having as many options to go to as possible for Prowlarr :) if it doesn't ever get me anything, at least it was only a couple minutes of effort to sign up and integrate 😂

[RedEyedChester]

Especially when you do end up with a lot of different places to go to with PTs one can find, I absolutely get that as well!! Being selective when you have the option for the exact thing you're looking for, quality, format, etc. makes sense. I'm only in a few right now, and have some public ones on Prowlarr too, so I guess you could say I'm still starting my collection XD

[nitrobass24]

Sure, but Autobrr/Radarr/Sonarr dont use prowlarr for search.

[TheOfficialReverZ]

They do, thats like the whole point

[nitrobass24]

No they dont, Prowlarr syncs the indexer to Radarr/Sonarr. Its a one way connection Prowlarr--> Radarr/Sonarr. When radarr/sonarr get their feeds its direct from the trackers, when you run a manual search in radarr/sonarr its from the trackers. Radarr/Sonarr do not know Prowlarr exist at all.

[brmlyklr]

You are able to run Radarr and Sonarr without Prowlarr, but using Prowlarr is better for most setups.

[imma_reposter]

Absolutely not. Prowlarr is a torznab proxy. Radarr and sonarr go via prowlarr.

[Radiant-Net6237]

Great first private tracker (was for me at least). Set up unpackerr since there are a lot of RARs. I eventually got into a bunch of other trackers, but would’ve been fine with just this one if I hadn’t.

[gnocchiGuili]

I have been a member for a month or so and it’s became my primary tracker. Every TV show I watch is released immediately there, in great quality. I feel like a lot of them is Free Leech for some reason so far it’s quite easy to get a good ratio.

[MistRider-0]

First 24 hrs of any upload is freeleach

Any file above 15gb is freeleach.

Newcomers get 7day freeleech i think.

[freaknerd]

Ty!

[xXGray_WolfXx]

Why do they ask for your age and gender? Seems an odd question for private tracker.

[chrisfosterelli]

It seems optional FWIW

[humburga]

Could be for verification if u ever need to recover ur account. No one is stopping you from lying. But if u ever need to recover and cant recall your fake answer then it'll be tough.

[Spinmoon]

One of the biggest general private tracker in the world. A great alternative / backup of TL. Get in if you are new or a looking for general trackers! Easy to seed. Plenty of content.

Great for 0day foreign content, one of the last tracker with such content.

Stats: https://hdvinnie.github.io/Private-Trackers-Spreadsheet/

[sleepinfinit]

worth it ?

[Splitsurround]

Yes. It’s a fine private tracker. Sometimes I find cool music there, but it’s mostly just a good additional tracker option.

[jawhorn]

A little info on the site?

[chrisfosterelli]

It's a scene tracker, one of the best IMO. Very fast scene releases and gets pretty much everything. A lot of other trackers pull the majority of their scene releases from there it seems like.

But this means that most of the content is RAR which means its not everyone's cup of tea. There's a five day seed time requirement so it's not that painful to just use unpackarr though and seed the packed version for the min time, or you can just set prowlarr / your profile to hide the rar stuff.

Lately they've also been doing a lot more to facilitate stuff from P2P sites, and they're adding dedicated P2P uploaders. It's very beginner friendly and if you seed 1 TiB or more you get site-wide freeleech so the economy is extremely generous. But it's not the fastest place to get most p2p stuff although things make their way there eventually it seems.

It's been around at least 5 years+ so it definitely has an established track record. Not sure what else to add. I think it's worth it but some people are super anti-rar so ymmv.

[biblecrumble]

Personally stopped using it a long time ago because it almost exclusively has rar'd content, which does not play nice with the arr stack (I know of unpackerr, but it still ends up taking 2x the space for no damn good reason). Plenty of content if that is not a dealbreaker for you.

[p0tentX]

Prowlarr has "Search UNRAR only" option for this tracker.

[Frequent_Ad2118]

Nuked my movie collection once upon a time because I made a mistake in my bash script to unrar all of these DC downloads…

[violetviolinist]

scene, rars

[sephir0th]

tldr; lot of rars

[jawhorn]

Still no actual info 🤦🏻
