Pulp, w How do the Debrid services get away from copyright?

I assume they still handle DMCA notices. So nothing wrong legally

What do you mean by “handle”?

Apollo2323,

So since Real Debris just like YouTube its a legal service , if you upload a movie to YouTube and a company send them a notice to take down that movie , YouTube will take it takedown and company happy :) the same is with Real Debrid.

But man, the scale should be way lesser then, I mean, that have never impacted me to watch stuff, either if it is old or new content.

Spotify is unusable without premium Xmanager

JCreazy,

Is what someone would say if they didn’t know any better.

MaggiWuerze,

Using Spotify without premium, as Spotify offers it, is unusable. There might be other options than paying, but the vanilla Spotify experience is horrendous

JCreazy,

That’s fair

JokeDeity,

Just installed via xManager after your comment and now I can’t log in…

Madbrad200,

Join their discord, it’s helpful. I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t let you login, shame because it really is the best ATM.

gc_, w Stream any torrent in sync with your friends

Could anyone tell me about how torrent streaming works? Is it just the file being downloaded to a server and streamed to a bunch of viewers, or something else?

Spacellary, (edited )

I use WebTorrent / WebTorrent-CLI and it basically streams/partially downloads the torrent and plays in your player of choice.

Not sure about this other option here.

I’ve been using nextdns.io with great success. It let’s you customise your settings and gives you a personal URL to paste into your private DNS

7Sea_Sailor, (edited ) w [HELP] Setting up a Jellyfin server with different (remote) storage servers

Why go all this way to build this stack on German hardware under the constant risk of being found out by copyright holders and being fined hundreds if not thousands of euros - when you could just get a seedbox that’s automatically configured for exactly this purpose and can run all the apps you need? Look at ultra.cc for example, they just work, don’t cost a lot of money and don’t annoy you with DMCA notices. And if you dislike their price or anything else, there’s limitless options out there.

@retiolus@lemmy.cat avatar

Hi, why ultra.cc? And why don’t they cause DMCA issues?

7Sea_Sailor,

Ultra is what I personally have been using for a while now without a single problem. But as I already said, there are plenty of other hosters with the same featureset, though I cannot make specific recommendations - but the seedboxes community on reddit may.

Regarding the DMCA, usually these hosters base their operations out of countries with lax or nonexistant copyright laws, allowing them to simply disregard incoming takedown notices. In Ultra’s case, they claim to forward copyright notices to the respective server owner, but I have yet to receive a single notice. Though I’m also exclusively on private trackers, maybe thats a reason too.

ShortN0te,

How should they even know? How should they prove that you are in posession of that data? Yes Hetzer most likely has to respond to reports but again how should the rights holder find out? Just because they find a jellyfin server in the wild? Even if the site is not SSL protected they are not Man in the Middle the traffic.

freeman, w Ubisoft has quietly pulled Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag from Steam

Interestingly the game is downloading for me. I have had it in my library for some time now.

Is it saying its been pulled for new sales only?

https://lemmy.pub/pictrs/image/274830cb-8072-442e-891b-5e86b7880b99.png

apprehensively_human,

Pulling a game from the steam store does not stop people from downloading it if already in their library.

freeman,

Ah. That makes sense.

Sibbo, w Ubisoft has quietly pulled Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag from Steam

Yeah but why? Does it cost money to keep the game available?

BearJCC,

Opportunity cost, possibly. They might be remastering it and wish to sell it at a higher cost, or think they can get more money through a different retailer.

GunnarRunnar,

That game seems pretty loved, I wouldn't be that surprised about a remaster. Though it would have to be a pretty barebones if it can't compete with a ten year old release.

WarmSoda, (edited )

A lot of publishers remove the original game when they release a ‘remaster’. Burnout Paradise, Metro Last Light, etc

whodoctor11,
@whodoctor11@lemmy.ml avatar

Perhaps to make people pay for the new one.

520,

That makes no sense. Black Flag is a completely different genre to modern AC.

whodoctor11, (edited )
@whodoctor11@lemmy.ml avatar

Didn’t you read the post? They are probably doing a remaster or remake and don’t want people to buy the old version…

520, (edited )

That would only make sense if you a) had a competing product on the market or b) at the very least actually announced one. The remaster/remake is a mere rumour, we don't even know if there's substance behind it.

@hyorvenn@jlai.lu avatar

Hosting your game on steam is indeed not free, and the price can vary greatly. It may not be the reason of the removal though

happyhippo, (edited ) w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

Could someone kindly ELI5 how to lidarr-ize my liked tracks from Spotify, please?

My collection there is quite static and I think I’m a good candidate to go MP3/AAC/whatever 🏴‍☠️ plus Spotify free just to keep up to date with newly released singles/albums from time to time.

Thanks!

P.S. also what comes after would be great, i.e. how I can batch transfer all those files from my home server running lidarr to my Android phone/PC and keep them in sync after the initial transfer. Plus also a nice feature rich Android app, either free (no ads) or even better open source with an accessible price.

butter,

Skip Lidarr for your initial move. Use Deemix. You can find links to premium ARLs on the wiki or with a google search (or DM me).

Deemix has an option to sign in with your Spotify account and download playlists. There’s a weird song count limit, and you may have to manually hit some tracks. But this is the way.

You can also do Flac with this setup. You don’t necessarily need it, but if you’re making the move, I recommend it. Since Flac is lossless, there’s never going to be an upgrade.

butter,

Also, if you’re up for the self-hosted life, what comes next is a music server. If you have good access to WiFi or unlimited data, this eliminates storage as a bottle neck. I recommend Navidrome. But something like Jellyfin or Plex can do Movies and TV, if you want a 1 size fits all.

If you’re not, look into Syncthing. You chose a folder on your computer and one on your phone and this app keeps them in sync. After that, my favorite player was GoneMad. It’s offline, with real support for music tags. This allowed song ratings and real smart playlists

happyhippo,

Thanks!

Yeah I forgot to mention that I’m already living the self hosted life, I got a small home server with the arr suite, jellyfin and a few other containers.

Didn’t know about syncthing, I’ll definitely check it out. Same for GoneMad 👍🏻

Thanks again!

XYZinferno, w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

Music is one of the easiest things to pirate, so much so that I often forget me downloading flacs of the songs I listen to is supposed to be a no-no

Between a flac playing app (Musicolet on Android and MusicBee on PC) as well as YT Music Revanced, things go smoothly

ArcRay,

The only reason I don’t pirate music is because of discovery. I haven’t found a good way to find new music without using a streaming service. And then, I’m already using a streaming service, so why bother.

cyberpunk007,

This. Back when I was a spring chicken I had nothing better to do with my time than download random songs and albums. Ain’t nobody got time for that now.

selokichtli,

Streaming is fine to discover music, but you are not guaranteed that an album you like will be there for you the next time you want to listen to it. I do listen music in Spotify with a modded app, then I download the albums I liked. There are albums that I can’t listen to Spotify anymore, but I still have the audio files in my Subsonic server.

N1cknamed,
@N1cknamed@feddit.nl avatar

Sure, it’s easy to download one song. But I watch maybe two movies a month, yet I listen to thousands of songs in that time. Downloading songs individually doesn’t even come close to the convenience of streaming. Not to mention the lack of music discovery and social features.

Jaded,

There’s different ways to automate it. There was a thread a while back where someone outlined their system. He kept the free Spotify account and had a script that checked it every week for his new recommended playlists, then it would download it automatically. He used an other software to host the library.

unfnknblvbl, (edited ) w Now you have to pay to see lyrics on spotify

As a Spotify Artist, I bet I don’t even see a single hundredth of a penny for somebody paying extra for the lyrics, either…

And even if Spotify did pay out extra for lyrics, I’m sure they’d find a way to screw my band out of royalties like they currently are anyway.

theshatterstone54, w Ubisoft has quietly pulled Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag from Steam

I pirated it anyway. I owned a PS4 copy, pirated it on PC, played on both and greatly enjoyed myself both times, and sold the copy to second hand reseller (Cex) that I buy all my games from. I neevr pay full price and never support the industry. The only digital copies of games I have are either ones that were free for a time, or ones that are free forever. Until the gaming industry stops releasing half-finished products, and stops overworking their employees, I will keep on not passing my financial support their way.

Anyone who still financially supports Ubisoft is at their own fault at this point.

killabeezio, w [HELP] Setting up a Jellyfin server with different (remote) storage servers

Not sure where you got the idea that it’s not advisable to mount the box via NFS. You can totally do this. I would make some adjustments though.

I would use mergerfs to union multiple mounts into one. You would then download to the local mount which is the drive connected directly to your seed box. Then I would have a remote mount to the nfs mount. You merge these into one so that when you link up jellyfin, it won’t know the difference and you can just stream like normal.

You need to copy files from the local drive to the remote, so you can try and roll your own solution by using rclone or use something like cloudplow which solves this issue as well. Cloudplow uses rclone as well, but monitors for changes automatically.

As far as copying files, why are you using sync anyway? It’s pretty dangerous. Just use move or copy instead. This way you don’t need to keep copies on your computer and the server.

As far as streaming from the nfs mount. You may need to make some changes to the cache settings and ensure they are set correctly.

With a setup like that, you should have no problems though.
