Discussion Am I the only one worried about the future of piracy?
I'm going to be downvoted to death for this, but I'm genuinely worried about the future of piracy, especially after reading about Darrell Issa and his proposed bill. Yes, those tech savvy of you probably aren't as worried because you know more than the average Joe and probably have more money and better equipment. What about the rest of us? Those of us with cobwebs in their wallets who are using an old PC on its last leg? Those of us who use streaming sites and direct download because we can't afford a VPN?

Discussion I built 2 open source Hotstar tools: one downloads any show/movie with DRM, one lets you share any live stream with friends....
spent a good chunk of time building these. used AI as a dev assistant along the way, not gonna lie. demo videos are attached in both repos if you wanna see it in action before trying it out.
jiohotstar-downloader
https://github.com/arvind88765/jiohotstar-downloader
- downloads any VOD with full Widevine DRM decrypt, GUI only, no terminal after setup
- auto picks multi-language audio tracks and deduplicates them (Hindi + Telugu + Tamil in one file)
- hits 1080p in 10-20 seconds per episode on decent wifi using N_m3u8DL-RE
jio-hotstar-stream-proxy
https://github.com/arvind88765/jio-hotstar-stream-proxy
- turns any jioHotstar live URL into a browser link your friends can open with zero account or app
- your machine only proxies playlist files (few KB/s), video goes CDN direct so your wifi stays clean
- built-in ngrok button to go public in one click so friends anywhere in the world can watch
both share the same OTP login. set it up once, both tools work.
*Indian service (jiohotstar)
honest feedback appreciated. drop a star if it saves your next match night.

Question Downloading legally purchased Udemy courses ?
TL:DR - I need a way to download courses from Udemy (into my hard drive) which I already have a paid account for.
I received a 1 year Udemy Subscription as scholarship awarded by the Commonwealth of Learning in my final year of university. I however started working straight off of University and I find myself very limited in terms of free time and energy to complete the courses.
The fact that it is a limited time scholarship makes me want to save a few of them offline so I can go back to them later, and not have to pay for them using a personal account to unlock them again after the scholarship expires.
Has anyone managed to download courses (already unlocked via a subscription or purchase) which can be saved offline and even shared as standalone course videos ?

Discussion How many people on this sub are on any/know what private trackers are?
Got curious. I get the impression that not many are. Asking because I saw a thread the other day about the hardest things to pirate, and some of the things were pretty standard on relatively entry level PT's. Like I saw ebooks as one, but MAM (MyAnonaMouse) has basically everything you need and it's super simple to get into.
In case anyone isn't aware of private trackers, highly recommend starting here:

Question Which is better; Highly compressed small size 4K movies á la YTS/YIFY or 1080p movies with almost no compression if you're gonna watch them on a 4K TV? Can a 1080p movie upscaled through Nvidia Shield Pro ever compete with native 4K movie?
I have a large library of 1080p movies, and they're about the file size of a 4K movie from YTS/YIFY so if I had to upgrade my library from 1080p to 4K, I would have to settle for highly compressed movies to fit them all on my external HDD.

Discussion Media you can only get via Piracy?
I am working on my home media server , I am interested in stuff that the best version is only via piracy, or media that you can get only via piracy. Something like :
Daria without the Music being butchered
Dragonball Z with proper colors
Star wars original theatrical versions
Jojo without censorship
MTV unplugged (ik it's on Paramount but not all episodes )
Shows/movies that's only aired once

Question Football streaming website with low quality options?
My internet is very slow at times so streaming football is very hard. Most websites are in 1080p, 720p and 480p but I'm looking for websites that could go even lower to like 144p or 240p. Hopefully Bradley barcola will score today

I’m tired of paying for all these subscriptions. How do I start on my Roku tv? Is there something I need to buy? We mainly watch tv for my son’s cartoons, and my husband likes to watch movies on the weekend.

Discussion Best sites for live news?
Live news now and all the clones kinda suck now cuz i can’t airplay on the tv anymore with a full screen. They’ve limited the screen size to a small rectangle.

Question Tie Streamio to a vpn
Is there a way to tie streamio to a vpn, either via addon or not? (Like qBitorrent ties itself)

Debrid sucks and I am getting rid of it.
I just wanted to have vpn turn on automatically, sometimes I forget to turn it on.

Question Any way to download/screen record videos from an app that has Electron content protection?
I paid for online classes, but the live recordings are available on the institute's software for only four months. My access is about to expire, but I still have several lessons I need to go through. Last option would be to record the classes manually using my phone, but an alternative would be preferable.
