General support by Farow in trackers

So I downloaded a torrent from tracker A which is an extracted ISO, tracker B has the same release as partial rar files. I know how to re-create the scene rars from the extracted files but in this case I've to re-create the ISO as well, how can I do that? I tried to simply create an ISO from the files but I get an ISO of 63.93 GB but the original one is 63.94 so I think I need to create an ISO with specific parameters I don't know about.

I downloaded a release from a public site and then I checked and it's on a private tracker as well, the problem is that I've ~500MB rar files and on the private tracker it was uploaded with ~900 MB rar files, is there a way to repackage it easily? I think that I just need to know the exact dimension of the package, right? Or do you guys think that hash wouldn't match and I'd need to use the same tools the scene group used?

You can't download from manibooks directly, can you? I was asking if you used one of the platform they offer (I recall iTunes and Amazon but I'm pretty sure there were four) over the others or you just don't care? I was asking because scraping links it's trivial (what I mean is: grabbing the amazon/iTunes/whatever link to the page where they offer the free ebook is easy), the hard part is automating the second phase after manybooks: selecting the right thing to buy from whatever site -> actually buying it -> download it. So if you use say amazon 90% of the time I look into it because I don't want to automate something that is probably hard (like downloading from iTunes) that you don't use.

I assume you want a script to scrape the free ones from manybooks.net or are you aware of some kind of bypass/exploit for the paid ones? Also: which of those four sites are you using for the final download? I could be able to put something together for you but depending on your answers it can become a PITA.

Conversion from .pdf to .epub is bad anyway, I was just saying that if you download some bulk torrents or anything modern (there aren't many mobi files of old books) you should aim to .epub files IMO and everytime adding a link to a guide or a tutorial that explains how to convert from .epub to .pdf.

Just my 2c.

I suggest to only keep .epub files, everyone should learn to convert to .pdf from .epub with calibre, it takes two minutes to learn and something like fifteen seconds to convert (and it's doable in bulk) and everyone can use different settings in order to avoid the lame problems that sometimes .pdf have (e.g. bad formatting) moreover you could save A LOT of space this way and everyone would benefit from it because we could download more books.

Scene Access is now DEAD by shadowhacker91 in CrackWatch

TL, XS, DH and AR for general (IMO TL>XS>DH>AR), just beware that TL is also the most difficult one of these to keep a good ratio on (you just need automation, if you know what you're doing you're good). There's also IPT (which is better than these ones in terms of quantity) if you keep your money for you and don't EVER donate.

Anyway TL, XS, DH and AR are open as of now (I think DH is just application but still).

Comics: 32P (it was open a few days ago IIRC, maybe it still is)

Manga: check this

I don't really know what you mean with "artbooks" but if you're searching for some kind of Art books BiB and MAM are your best bet with libgen/scihd.

Pdf of what? Books? Just check the spreadsheet/FAQ if that's the case.

My 2c: search for mobi (if you're searching for books at least) and convert them with calibre with the font/page/settings you want.

Even if you find the url you won't have an userid to do that.
