Finding mainstream media on usenet - am I doing it wrong? angielski

Hey crew! I often run into the issue that I can’t find usenet entries for reasonably mainstream stuff. Example: “and just like that”, a quite recent, mainstream-ish tv series. Second season is super available (dropped this year), first one has massive health problems and a lot of missing episodes. The first season is from 2021.

Using the inebriated slug and the geek terrestrial object as indexers with news demon as a provider.

Is there a trick to finding content or do I just have to live with some stuff / episodes / seasons not being available?

d3lta19,

I have the same indexers as you, but I use ninja and farm for my servers. I have no problem whatsoever finding anything relatively popular from the last 20 years or so. I would look at your servers

thisusernameistaken,

the older stuff on newsdemon is hit or miss anyways cause of the way they handle their storage so it will be hard to know if its gone cause they suck or gone cause of takedown.

omalaul,

Overall not too happy with the performance but wanted a provider that accepted crypto

thisusernameistaken,

i can understand that about crypto. Fwiw, this discussion was posted recently about usenet and crypto, lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/2612428 Others take crypto and several of the ones mentioned take it directly without a processor and have better perf. than the newsdemon system.

modulartable,

For clarity, are you manually downloading or using the *aar’s for automated downloading?

omalaul,

The *arr crew is running the ship.

FuckyWucky,

Get a tweaknews block account. From what I know they use NTD instead of DMCA and may have the missing blocks.

For indexers I’ve found nzb.su to be pretty good.

omalaul,

Thank you for the advice!

thisusernameistaken,

if the post is from 2 years ago ntd or dmca is not going to make a difference. it will be long gone regardless.

FuckyWucky,

Not sure. I’ve seen better success rates with Eweka+NewsDemon than NewsDemon/Eweka alone. Maybe different blocks are being deleted?

MrNobody,

It’s recommended to have two providers, one for monthly and one block account, on two seperate backbones. I think /r/piracy or /r/Usenet has a list, and as whirlybird mentioned just add the show to sonarr and it’ll eventually grab it.

If you don’t have any *are suite I highly recommend getting that set up. Sonarr for tv shows, radarr for movies. It’s all set and forget, just add the content you are after and the *are does the rest. You just add your indexer(s), add the provider(s) and you’re sorted.

omalaul,

Thank you for the advice! I do have sonarr running but some stuff just keeps not turning up

Whirlybird,

Recent stuff from big networks is more likely to get DMCA’d regularly than older stuff. As long as you add it in to sonarr you should get it eventually, but yeh unless you get it at release it can be a bit tough sometimes.

omalaul,

Thank you for the advice! I shall be patient haha
