Yes sir, I use Tdarr with Handbrake CLI to batch process everything.

It shouldn’t. Like I said, they basically just want you to regurgitate the rules to them so they can make sure you’ve read them. You can even just have them open on another page. It’s basically an open book test.

It’s definitely the best for books and audiobooks. The interview is easy, they ask you about the rules, just have them up in another window and repeat them back to them verbatim, don’t try and get cute and rephrase them. They are really just checking that you read the rules.

Seeding is easy (3 days) and if you continue to seed you can purchase ratio very easily with the points.

I will say this though, it’s a very WHOLESOME community. And if you participate in community stuff, you will be forced to be WHOLESOME as well. Personally, I usually just keep my head down and torrent and don’t participate in forums / chat much.

Fog or smoke? I’m down in the US Midwest and even we had the smoke fog from all the CA forest fires.

Let’s see if this works:

1080p Encoder Settings

2k Encode Settings

I don’t keep 4k content, I find that 2k encodes for the stuff I really want at high fidelity is enough with Nvidia upscaling (Nvidia shield). Plus surprisingly some of my 2k files are no larger than 1080p.

All my content is converted to CPU encoded x265. Size is MUCH smaller and quality better than GPU encoded x265. My preference is to get remux copies of the content and then encode it myself.
