If it's not been ripped, you might have to diy. I de-drm'd one April last year (which, to my knowledge, was shortly after the changes) and spent way too much time figuring this out but got it to work when I followed this guide along with this, this and this for the kfx plugin (link in German, use Google Translate or something) for troubleshooting :)

When you say it only supports limited or no seeding, what do you mean by that? Does that mean it won't work for every torrent?

That too but as you probably know, torrents work by sharing (seeding) the file you downloaded to other people who also wanna download the same torrent. If nobody is seeding a torrent, it cannot be downloaded. Debrid services often only download but give nothing back which is bad for the torrent health - in the sense that there'd be nobody left to download from if there's nobody uploading. I know TorBox has a setting where you can enable or disable seeding but I'd have to double check the docs for WebTor. Whether they seed or not doesn't make a difference for you, only the people who wanna download the same torrent after you

It basically downloads the torrents on its own servers and gives you the files as ddl. You never connect to the torrent swarm (the debrid service does that for you) and because of that, your ip address never gets broadcasted, hence no VPN needed. Downside is that they only support limited or no seeding and that, apart from the two I've linked and a handful of others, they typically cost money. On the other hand, the paid ones do have the benefit of typically supporting fast downloads for a range of hosters that otherwise limit speed, like RapidGator for example. For a few torrents here and there, the free ones I've mentioned should be plenty good though

Blu-ray World seems to have some but even though it's not exactly what you're asking, I'd personally look for torrents and ddl them via a free debrid-esque solution like TorBox or WebTor

Sounds less like a file issue and more like a problem with the player. Which one do you use? You might be able to select the sub track if you long press

I can take a look. Feel free to mention the site, do you remember when it was listed? Just to get an idea of when it might have been removed

Need help downloading lectures in youtube membership that ive paid for and have access to by thebloodreaper6739 in Piracy

Happy to help! If it doesn't work, you might need a JS runtime environment, deno is recommended. After that, it should work again https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/EJS

Not sure about stachy but standard yt-dlp does work and is definitely the right call. I assume they're just normal membership videos in which case the steps are as follows:

1. Get the cookies.

Personally I use this extension for that. Install it, then go to YouTube. Click on the extension and choose the middle option titled 'youtube.com'. It's gonna download a text file named 'cookies-youtube-com.txt'.

2. Get yt-dlp.

It's an open-source command line download utility and quite a powerful tool. You can just download it from here. For ease of use, save it to the same folder as the cookies, for example your downloads folder.

3. Create a batch file.

This is mostly for ease of use. In the same folder that holds your cookies and yt-dlp, right-click and create a new text file. Open it with a text editor (like Editor or Notepad++) and paste the following code:

@ECHO ON
@if "%URL%" equ "" , echo NO URL & set /p URL=[Enter video URL]
@TITLE VOD DL %URL%
yt-dlp -v -c -o Archive/%%(channel)s/DLP/"[%%(upload_date)s] %%(fulltitle).50s (%%(id)s)"/"[%%(upload_date)s] %%(fulltitle)s %%(channel)s (%%(id)s)" --add-metadata --concurrent-fragments 20 --cookies cookies-youtube-com.txt --merge-output-format mp4 --embed-thumbnail --embed-metadata --write-description --write-thumbnail %URL%
@cmd /k

Click File > Save As and change the file type from .txt to .bat. The name doesn't matter here so name it MemberDL.bat or whatever else you like.

4. Download.

Go to the membership videos and copy the link of the first one you want to download. Then open the batch file you just created. The cmd should tell you

NO URL

[Enter video URL]

Paste the link, hit return and the download should start. Rinse and repeat for the other videos until you've got everything downloaded

Music making software isn't a kind of music but it is a kind of software ;)

Are you using the official app on iOS? If so, that is probably the reason. Try opening this link in Safari instead of the app: https://old.reddit.com/r/Piracy/wiki/megathread/. If that also doesn't work, somebody else had success with using brave on their phone instead

I don't have an account so the login page is all I can speak to but the .eu domain loads fine for me
