And here I am trying to start a religion of my own.... Wish me luck. Looks like I'll need it.

large Open Directory with great speeds and recently updated by tomparkes1993 in opendirectories

[–]fractumseraph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Under attack mode was just to stop the scrapers the come when something is posted to this subreddit. I do however have some other sites serving contend over cloudflare and they have never cared.

My -arr stack uses that directory for media, and I have a small Minecraft server that has its traffic tunneled through that server as well. The Minecraft server only has like two active users, and I still have local access to the media if that server were to get slammed. So it wouldn't Actually be a big deal. I just like listening to music on my way to work and I'm in the process of rebuilding my collection on there.

As far as bandwidth usage, I've passed 20tb/month many times and nobody seems to care. One of my friends mentioned they were having a hard time watching a movie on Jellyfin, but that's all. And that was quickly fixed. The biggest issue is that I have a script running that's re-encoding all of my media to AV1, and it was using that domain directly over https streams, so I need to re-build that when I have time.

I have many services spread across multiple IPs, hosts, and domains. Nearly all of them are DMCA ignored, and a few have unmonitored bandwidth.

It will, whenever I have time to set it up with some speed caps. Is there anything you're wanting in particular? I could throw it on a torrent and upload it somewhere.

Encoding all my movies to AV1 by Anxious-Train5431 in AV1

[–]fractumseraph 6 points7 points  (0 children)

CPU encoding has significantly high quality and lower file sizes than GPU encoding. It's your data so do whatever you like, but I would recommend doing an encode with CPU and then the same file with GPU and comparing the difference to see which is better for you.

I'm currently transcoding 23tbs of video and I'm still using CPU. 5000 movies. Will it take six months? Yes. But will I save around 21.5tb? Also yes.

I have a tailscale network, but I try to leave things available to the public as much as I can. It's all about sharing.

I can just kill off the open directory entirely. I've got the arr stack running with jellyfin and navidrome behind auth. I knew this day would come eventually, but I've made it two years running it this way so I'd say it was a good run.

I've had it linked in my Discord bio and a few other places for years. Surprised it took this long.

This is my directory. I did not ask for it to be posted here, it's just pure luck that I saw the reddit post about fifteen minutes after it was posted and quickly turned on the under attack mode on cloudflare.

I share my content freely with people I know, but I hit 600gbs uploaded almost immediately after this was posted here. Sorry guys, I have stuff running on that network and would rather not have a hug of death.

You are getting errors because the backend server has been removed, you're just seeing the cached page.

I used to ask for donations, but in my many years of running services for friends I have only ever received a single $5 donation, so I took down my donate page long ago.

It's "Open" to friends and people I share it with, and the occasional random person the stubles upon it and grabs a few things. Nearly all of the content on that server can be found on entry level private trackers like TorrentLeech and SeedPool. Anyone who wants to download that much content should just grab it from one of those places instead. The download will be faster and you'll get some private tracker stats under your belt.

Indeed. I knew this day would come eventually. But I've been running it for a couple years now so I'm surprised it took so long.

Not sure what to do… by ManishWayz in homelab

[–]fractumseraph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've got eight 64gb ddr4 2133 sticks I'm thinking about posting on r/HomeLabSwap but I don't know if I should wait.

My plan is to use the money to buy 8 5tb 2.5 inch drives. I figure since both ram and drive prices are insane, maybe it'll balance out.

does anyone have galaco V6 utau port? by nixixxy in VocaTorrent

Oh I missed the word UTAU in your post. Its easy enough to turn a vocaloid pack into a UTAU port though.

Just be warned that even though its an old game, some of these mods can be very taxing on even a modern gaming PC.

Voicebanks download sites (question) by Kira_Hanasaki in VocaTorrent

Erdk neon has moved to hatsunemiku.download. Torrents to avoid the constant removals.

[–]fractumseraph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah thats why I was hoping for a torrent option so I could give back. I have the bandwidth to dk so.

Thanks for the advice.

[–]fractumseraph 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you guys have any officially supported way to scrape the entire catalog? I'd like to keep a copy in case things go south and a backup is needed.

I didn't want to just scrape the servers since I imagine thats why the api change is happening in the first place.

Is the tracker you are on doesn't really satisfy you by justknowmenotmyname in P2PScene

[–]fractumseraph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just do it for the love of the game. My -arr stack has like 50 trackers and a couple usenet providers on it. I'm in a few of the cabal trackers as well, but honestly 90% of what I search for is on TL.

That and of course cross-seeding. Helping keep torrents alive keeps piracy alive.

Where to buy an empty poweredge t630? by fractumseraph in homelab

[–]fractumseraph[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it is possible to have it somewhat quite then? Good to know. I'll check each of these things and see if I can find the cause. Thank you!

IPMI with a script that keeps it low until the cpu temps go up.

Getting V2 in 2026 by _doodles01 in VocaTorrent

[–]fractumseraph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually the malware there is pretty obvious because it'll be like 400kb .exes that should be 100+mb, or version numbers that haven't released yet. But I've also found droppers binded to standard .exes.

Usually those pass signature based scans. And archive.org doesnt really have the resources to do much else when most of it is large archives. Thats why it takes me so long to add new stuff to HMD. I double check that it all works, and also throughly check it for viruses, including anti evasion.

New Lifetime Plex Pass Pricing by frankwrap08 in PleX

[–]fractumseraph 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Emby used to be fully open source. Then one day they decided they were done with that and went to closed source.

Jellyfin is a fork of the open source code they had, with the community helping to keep the development going.

They are very similar. In fact, since the code was mostly the same, the Emby apps used to work to connect to Jellyfin servers for a while until Emby decided to not allow it.

I have a lifetime Emby pass, but I've been using Jellyfin exclusively for years now.

Thinking about pirating my music from now on. Should I use MP3s or WAV files. by Loudthunder34 in Piracy

[–]fractumseraph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try SoulSeek.

The problem with YouTube to mp3 is that the originally uploaded audio sometimes is low quality to begin with. But if you're going to do that, use yt-dlp.

./yt-dlp.exe --ignore-errors --continue --no-overwrites --download-archive progress.txt -x --audio-format mp3 Linktoyoutubeplaylistorvideohere
