Well, it's not wrong to say that about the basic concept of copyright. The original purpose of copyright was to allow authors to feel free to publish stuff more widely without fear of it being "stolen." Without copyright there'd be a lot more proprietary information being squirrelled away in private archives.

But of course, that concept has been completely hijacked over the years. The duration no longer makes sense for that original purpose.

Yeah. Copyright should exist for like, 20 years or so? Or no more than 10 years after the holder's death so dependent family can adapt. This 90-100 years is bullshit. It doesn't benefit the creators, it benefits the rights holders. Almost always a corporation profiting off the back of their workers.

piratetarip,

Agreed. The fundamental concept doesn’t seem bad. Usually it is harder to create than copy. So for someone to invest resources into creating something, we might want a system that allows him to recoup those costs before someone else who didn’t need to front load those costs undercuts him.

But as you said the current system is broken.

believe it or not, that wasn’t the original purpose of copyright. copyright was invented as a form of censorship. in 1556, the Charter of the Stationers’ Company was given the exclusive right to control the operation of printing presses in England, up to and including the ability to seize offending books and burn the printing presses that made them (L. Ray Patterson, )

Ah yes, a statement on copyright thanking someone for buying an authorised edition of Great Expectations, a book whose copyright expired in 1940 at the latest…

Right, the copyright is specifically for random essays added to the book, so that they could release it and say it wasn't entirely public domain, so you shouldn't copy it. A weird place to say "copyright fuels creativity" when it's clearly not the reason for the copyright here.

@toxictenement@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Since mullvad doesn’t support port forwarding anymore, you’ll want to split tunnel it outside of the vpn. However, if you’re considering switching vpn’s at all, airvpn has a dynamic dns service (and port forwarding) which you can set up to have a static url for your jellyfin.

Just be sure to enable the DLNA server and allow remote connections in the jellyfin settings either way.

AphoticDev, w Any good tools for converting a YT playlist to mp3?
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Why would you want to convert to mp3? This ain’t 2003, there’s way better formats to use than that.

kingludd,

Can you give some examples to read up on?

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Depends on whether you want lossless or lossy. For lossy, OOG Vorbis is the way to go if you want to support open source. If you don’t care about that, WMA is a proprietary format alternative. Both WMA and Vorbis have better quality than MP3, with equivalent file sizes. I use Vorbis myself, because it’s free.

If you want lossless, idk, because I don’t fuck with that.

SBS1313, (edited )

Just a small question let us say i wanted to convert all of my mp3 files into oog or wma. Will i loose some quality or it is fine (my files are around 128kbps)??? Because better quality for same size seems like a switch i would do. (I will convert with AIMP)

ByteWizard,

If they’re already MP3 then don’t bother. Can’t make it sound better after it’s already been compressed. You’d need to get source material then convert to whatever format.

There’s nothing wrong with MP3 though. Hell most people are listening to streaming like Pandora and Spotify and don’t complain.

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Vorbis has better compression than MP3, so you won’t lose any quality, and the files should be a little smaller.

TerryTPlatypus,

There might be, but as a standard mp3 is by far the most cross compatible format on any device. Plus, if you feel like it later you can just create a program to convert all the mp3 files into other formats.

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

OOG Vorbis has been around for years, what device are you imagining that can’t play it? A Zune?

Likely they are putting it on mobile phone, and both major OSes can handle those files.

TerryTPlatypus,

you’re probably right about that, i never thought of it that way!

ArcaneSlime,

My phone will play .ogg with VLC, but the little bar that tracks song progress is broken, same with .opus. .flac works but phone manufacturers have decided I don’t need storage space and I instead need their cloud, which I refuse to use, so .mp3 it is.

AphoticDev,
@AphoticDev@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

If you’re having issues with OOG, then try AAC. It was designed to be the successor to MP3, and when MP3 is phased out in the coming years, it will be in favor of AAC. I use Vorbis because it’s open source, but there are other options than that.

ArcaneSlime,

I’ll give it a shot.

MaeTheDoctor,

Because the first audio format I think of is mp3, that’s literally it.

ICastFist, w "Copyright fuels creativity [...] promotes free speech", heh
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

Copyright fuels a weird form of creativity, the “Original Character do not steal” that is a blatant copy of another character. It also happens in music all the time, “Original lyrics, sound and composition, do not copy”

As for promoting free speech, yeah, no, it doesn’t. Everyone can point to a dozen videos being taken down by bogus copyright reasons, whether because it played 10 seconds of a specific music, or because the author of a piece of art disliked the video. That’s not even mentioning how you can’t (couldn’t?) use the “happy birthday” song in USA without being copyright struck.

Micromot,

In germany it explicitly includes that you can use as much stuff of some else if you add something or make a parody, just copying is obviously forbidden

TheFogan,

In the US the law does that. Even reaction videos that basically show the original are generally OK. The problem is that generally places for the general public to post things, don’t want to spend the legal costs of checking every claim. So they do a guilty until proven innocent approach where if someone has a registered business if they accuse someone it gets yanked immidiately, and then it’s up to the users to prove it’s not infringement.

If by “thief” you mean someone that copies information, then yes I am.

Tippon, w Prowlarr question

This could be a combination of both the other answers. Sonarr and Radarr will only process files they recognise, and only from the folders they monitor.

If you set up Radarr, and only added the original Star Wars to it, you could put every other movie in existence into Radarr’s watch folder, and it wouldn’t do anything with them. It would only deal with the original Star Wars. Radarr, and all the other *arrs, only deal with what you’ve explicitly told them to.

On the other hand, they only process files that are in their respective watch folders. If you created a watch folder for Radarr under downloads/radarr, but Prowlarr was putting the files in the downloads folder, Radarr would never see them. It can only look in the watch folder you set, and any sub folders.

What you can do is set the same root folder for them all, and tell the different *arrs to use sub folders, then use the root folder as a catch all. I can’t remember how to set it up off the top of my head, but I remember that it was pretty simple.

WeAreAllOne,

This is the way I’m set up. One downloads folder and two folders for Sonarr and Radarr respectively that are mapped by them. How do you mean use the root folder as catch up?

Tippon,

Catch all

I set them both to watch my completed downloads folder, named Completed in my case. When they grab something, they put it in a sub folder of Completed, named either Sonarr or Radarr. If I put something that one of them is monitoring into the root Completed folder, it still gets picked up. This way, I don’t have to specify a sub folder for anything I download manually, it just goes in Completed and gets processed.

CmdrShepard, w Prowlarr question

Not familiar with SABnzbd but with torrents and searching from Prowlarr, these don’t get assigned the proper category in the download client meaning radarr/sonarr don’t ever see them. With QBittorrent, I can just assign the proper category after adding them, and then the *arrs take it from there.

WeAreAllOne,

So I might wanna play with the categories. Thank you I will try this.

rambos,

Yeah thats a solution. Just right-click torrents that came from prowlarr and move it to sonarr or radarr category.

Categories are made automatically when you create a torrent client in sonarr/radarr. They are also synced with qbittorrent

Madiator2011, w Prowlarr question

Prowler is just for searching stuff from indexers. So correct setup is search with Sonarr -> Sending request to prowler -> respond to Sonarr -> send to SAB -> Sonarr process downloaded file. Sonarr usually tags files with “sonarr” when sending to SAB :)

WeAreAllOne,

Thank you for your reply. I thought it is meant this way, BUT what I find frustrating is the search function in Sonarr as I cannot choose specific files to grab from the results but I have to choose one by one. In Prowlarr, there is a tick box on the left of the results so you just tick whatever and then grab and be done.

JasDawg,

Unfortunately, that is how the *arrs are meant to function. Sonarr/Radarr/Lidarr/Readarr are meant to be set & forget. Prowlarr can be used for manual searching, and it is fairly good at it because it is a search aggregator, but if you manually search on Prowlarr, you have bypassed the *arrs and they will not see what you grab, because you necessarily haven’t told them that you’ve grabbed anything. I do not believe Prowlarr is capable of going the other direction, and Prowlarr should be used with the *arr suite because of category searching.

All that to say that, the *arr apps are functioning as intended, it is you that is not conforming to them.

I should also say, that you can search manually in the *arrs, but its fairly tedious.

No shade or anything, just informing.

WeAreAllOne,

Yup! All I have to setup now is bigger hard drives since I can’t stop downloading now…!
