>>219494992I do not and have never had porn. No point. i rarely watch porn and only ever tube shit to sate the desire, not for entertainment.i had magazines as a kid and a DVD as a teen but I can only get off to amateur real sex anyway.Torrents I used Utorrent for over a decade since it came out but I ended up switching it to qbit only a few years ago because Utorrent was getting sluggish.I dont really store or hoard movies and only not delete ones I think I will watch again.They are all on a laptop, but at some point, soon i need to transfer everything to an external HD as I need a new laptop and it will come with an SSD, which is impermanent and will lose too much data if I keep transferring to and from.

I just torrent my kinos with qB from public trackers and load them up onto a couple of old external HDDs that I plug into my TV. If I'm watching youtube I do it off my PC to my TV via an HDMI cable. I've been going this shit for 20 years and it's hard to break old habits. It's a simple life buy I enjoy it.
>>219497346does it handle subtitles ok? I watch a lot of anime and some times watching via a hdd plugged directly into my tv the subtitles would be all kinds of fucked up

>>219494992>Are you a plex cuck or a jellyfin chad?Jellyfin. I'm not in love with it (their watched/unwatched status system is garbage), but Plex can fuck off with their subscription bs, and outside of these two there are no mature options that I know of (kodi maybe?). > Do you have multiple external hdds plugged in like a pajeet or have you built a nas/file server?Server but nothing serious, running off an old office minipc (Thinkcenter).>Torrent client of choice?Transmission.

>>219497474>>219497525What can I say? I like movies and occasionally shitposting about garbage television. I make enough money, so I don't notice or care about limited spending on streaming or theater tickets.

>>219497373Yes as long as it's an .srt file and has the same name as the video file. Also luckily my tv has good subtitle settings so I can tweak them to my liking (I like them yellow) and even adjust the sync on the rare occasion.

Why would you watch torrents like an unc when you can watch kino on your phone?
>>219494992>Are you a plex cuck or a jellyfin chad?I'm a double click in file explorer and click maximize button patrician
>>219494992Plex KING.Why wouldn't I use it over Jellyfin? It just works. It's for normal people.
>>219500522David Lynch said I was stupid if I did.
>>219497735I wish a qBittorrent instance could work as an alternative streaming server for Stremio so you could watch your private tracker torrents while they're still downloading, and keep torrents complete and seeding so you don't get your accounts banned and there's no buffering on rewatches.
>>219500856It could but it crosses legal lines.
>>219494992Cinema reel rips are the way to go. I haven't done it.Stored on hard drives and glass for long term.On a massive screen is the only way to enjoy a lot of movies. Failing that: VHS rips.2D to 3D conversion works well enough too.
my hdd are mostly porno, primarily recordings of camgirls. films usually get deleted a few days after watching unless it's something that took forever to download or a comfort movie i'll watch multiple times. same for tv shows, though i keep more of them than films. dont want to have to rely on "remember wenn" still being healthily seeded if i want to watch it a decade from now, dont have that problem as much with your typical flick.
>>219500895Using Stremio already does, though it might be a grayer area if you're using a debrid service. You can already have the Stremio streaming server running separately from the client app, you can use that to get around it not being allowed on the App Store version.I think qBt currently wouldn't be able to handle streaming prioritizing pieces to grab based on where you're scrubbing through the video though. Seems ruTorrent and Deluge can do that with plugins but I don't think Stremio addon devs have made use of that yet
People think Streamio is legal?
>>219500628ok youre not off the hook yet. what player do you use? and it better not be VLC
>>219498624private trackers are gay , simple as
>>219501812windows media player :)
>>219501947you fucking faggot get out of my sight
>>219501834No it's a good thing there are some many restrictions and score. It keeps the quality people in and rewards good behavior, which is good for sharing good quality kino. I'll agree with that pic with the application process. It really feels like you're on your knees begging for scraps. They should be open for everyone, but with regular mass pruning for non seeders or inactive users.
>>219501993cuckprivate tracker faggotry is fundamentally anti-piracy and anti-(old)internet culture

How do you get pirated TV networks on Plex & Jellyfin?
how to deal with the backlog?I have a hundred movies and 8 tv shows sitting in my hard drives since 2015

>>219497474Would.
What's the actual point of a NAS? Can't I just get some kind of external case and put two disks in it (mirrored for backup) without all the "mini PC" shit?
>>219502038this isn't the old internet anymore
>>219503231What are you going to hook it up to? Some kind of wifi/ethernet interface, so it'll be accessible on the network? Congratulations, you just invented NAS
>>219503231that is a nas. network storage doesn't have to be some gay whitebox scrap heap running freenas if you don't want it to be. there's a lot of off the shelf enclosures that you can get, fill with disks, and enjoy.
>>219494992unless it's some obscure movie that i had a lot of trouble finding, i delete everything after i watch it
>>219494992>Are you a plex cuck or a jellyfin chad?neither. i just have a 18tb hard drive to store everything on.
>>219503231I think the advantage of of using one over an old laptop + hard drives in an external case is that the laptop wouldn't be able to stream files with high bitrate, whereas the NAS has a more powerful better cpu. I might be wrong though.

>>219494992Neither. I find what I want to watch in File Explorer and use VLC.I just use some big internal HDDs.qBittorrent.All public trackers from the most well-known sites like Pirate Bay and 1337x. ISPs haven’t done shit for 20 years.Several terabytes that’s either my favorite media or stuff I can’t find on streaming.A couple dozen GBs, I mostly use websites for porn.

>>219494992I'm old-school. I just download movies on my main pc then share them over the network to my old pv which is attached to my TV. I'm sure plex would make it more convenient but I'm stubborn and do it manually.
>>219501993using the plugins on qbit, you get tons of downloading options. No need for a private tracker, although 1337 and TPB used to be adequate too.
>>219497346Used to have family weekend movie nights. We'd go to an uncles house, alongside some other family members sitting on 2 couches, floors with cushions and making popcorn, soda, juice.He'd get his laptop and connect it via HDMI to a 50"It was such fun times. We'd just chat and catch up before and after or watch another movie.
>>219503817>>What are you going to hook it up to?My actual PC?
>>219503830>there's a lot of off the shelf enclosures that you can get, fill with disks, and enjoy.But they all act like mini PCs, no? Not like a normal external USB box.
I pay for a seedbox to help my pirate brothers and sisters.

What's the benefit of using Plex/jellyfin? You can access your content remotely without transporting a drive/PC? Is it just appealing because it's slightly higher tech, so people enjoy it for that reason?
>>219508826Zoomers are terrified by the mighty HDMI cable
>>219508940Oh, it's more wireless, therefore, more better, to zoomoids. Makes sense. haha
>>219494992I set up my old gaming laptop as a plex server.Installed ubuntu server on its 1TB native HDD and about 200 movies then chucked in a 2TB SSD and filled that up with all my favourite TV shows.The problem was, I had a faulty charger and every time this laptop would be unplugged, the laptop would turn off immediately and lose the running config. It was a problem for a year. I've since replaced the battery and charger so it doesnt crash now but it also wont boot to anything, the HDD is dead or ubuntu is bricked. Should I just bite the bullet and get a NAS instead of flogging this poor 11 year old laptop?
>>219497757Based but i can tell you spend more time organising your library than watching anything.Unless you're some rich NEET.
>>219508826>>219509095Opening up the Plex app on my PS4 and having everything sitting there is a lot easier than navigating through folders.The real advantage of Plex tbough is remembering which episode of a TV show I'm up to.
>>219497757>140TB of moviesThere's no way there's nearly enough good films to fill this much storage, maybe unless they're ALL 4k?
>>219509800>a lot easier than navigating through folders.? I just click on a couple folders and it's nearly instantaneous. I understand the remembering advantage though. Seems like the advantage is minimal, if it exists. I'll look into this tech though.
>>219504201>>Are you a plex cuck or a jellyfin chad?>Plex Lifetime Pass holderbased
>>219509898The main advantage, from asking AI, is a Plex type server gives you immediate access in multiple rooms/devices. This is compared to a laptop+HDMI+TV connection where the laptop is asleep and you don't have to boot it up every time, in which case, you'd have to disconnect and reconnect the laptop/drive. The other differences are minimal.
Public trackers have become unusable over the years unless you only want new releases. I had to join a private tracker just to get simpsons with the commentary tracks.
>>219510351>I had to join a private tracker just to get simpsons with the commentary tracks.How loose is your asshole?
>>219510449Not at all considering how easy most trackers are to get into
>>219503231Its nice having all my files accessible on every device I own, even outside the house
>>219510587i've never felt the need to do this
>>219494992I have one external hd that i have my favorite movies on and like five seasons of Simpsons. I have it just as like a backup in case i have no internet. Otherwise im just using stremio or some shit streaming website if stremio is down.
Not sure what Plex or Jellyfin are. But I download media from TBP using LibreTorrent on Android through a public WiFi spot. Also rip videos from YouTube using NewPipe also on Android. About 10GB of media daily. I delete the files once they're watched. I'm forever running out of storage space on my 480 GB SSD.
>>219494992>have you built a nas/file server?>kept telling myself i would make one for the past 5 years>now all the storage prices have been jew'd
>>219494992I’ve got 2 redundant externals that also have all my/my family’s photos and other important documents. Someone has to physically come in my house to get at the data. I’m using transmission these days and have probably a little under 1TB of various video media
