My wife and I moved into our first house together on Halloween, 1995, so that night we drank a bottle of champagne, watched Young Frankenstein, and handed out candy. Every year since then we’ve done the same thing to celebrate our anniversary of living together, though sometime a different movie. This year, we couldn’t find our DVD, so decided to stream it and found what you did. Apparently Disney bought it and for some reason decided not to make it available. Very frustrating.

That’s simply unacceptable. I have a copy, but that’s still unacceptable that you can’t stream a film that amazing anywhere legally.

Find a spare/cheap computer. Install home assistant/unraid/TrueNAS (bunch of platforms that run docker and have app installers but any of those three are pretty easy to get running). Pay for access to a Usenet backbone provider and one or two Usenet search providers. Black Friday will have some sales on yearly subscriptions. Install Jellyfin, Radarr, Sonarr, Jellyseer, and Bazaar (if you’re huge into subtitles like me). Alternatively, also install and setup Prowlarr. Get your Usenet stuff working in Prowlarr. Point Radarr and Sonarr at Prowlarr. Point Jellyseer at Sonarr and Radarr. Share with friends. I will personally handhold anyone who wants to do this for themselves.

  why usenet over torrents?
  
  source
  - marx2k@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago
    Usenet pros:
    
    not p2p so no real chance of getting busted
    
    max out your bandwidth the whole time you’re downloading
    
    no need to seed, no ratios, etc
    
    Cheap AF
    
    Usenet cons:
    
    Files aren’t forever. Servers do delete content after some time so search results aren’t always available on your server
    
    Usenet servers, especially in the US, are pretty responsive to DMCA demands
    
    Not free
    
    Complexity of setup (Sab + Arrs) are a barrier to entry
    
    Public nzb search engines aren’t always going to have what you need. Private search engines are usually invite only and/or cost money per year
    
    Far less variety for niche stuff than torrents (imo, ymmv)
    
    source
  - gdog05@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago
    Quality and ease. Torrents don’t always have enough seeders or they disconnect. You can get by on them, but it’s a case of getting what you pay for. I go through a lot of media as do my friends using my server. The cost is negligible and basically means I have no headaches.

    If you happen to go the Unraid route (Unraid is fantastic, but not free) Spaceinvader One on YouTube has great tutorials. That’s where I got most of my info initially. It’s definitely worth it and I think a good deal easier. I am not good with code and really like having a visual interface and it helps with that. I am not a master at any of this but I’ve learned a lot and I’m pretty comfortable now. To do a YouTube series myself, I feel like I’d need to know more. But there are definitely resources out there to get you going. If you follow some of this and run into problems, feel free to reach out to me. Or the selfhosted community here has been amazing. But you might start with one of the aforementioned frameworks. I think it’s easier than going straight to docker. Docker isn’t difficult, but managing IPs and networks and ports can cause some frustration and confusion.
    
    This guy has a pretty good install on home assistant operating system (HAOS is important. Not just home assistant, but HAOS). When you have HAOS up and running, you can add the respiratory that Alex Belgium has created. He’s done a great job at getting so many docker containers ready to go in home assistant. Huge, huge props to the guy. And once you have the repository, you can start to install the individual containers and it’s not terrible. I think Spaceinvader One’s videos can get you through much of it. Just skip the installation part and go to setup.
    
    It’s a lot and I can’t go step by step but I will answer and help in someone’s journey as best as I’m able to.

    I’ve been spreading the piracy gospel every chance I get. This is how I’d explain to a layman how to set up a rig similar to mine.
    
    1). First and foremost, you need to do this shit behind a VPN. You’re specifically looking for a VPN with port forwarding so you’ll get better download speeds on your torrents. I’m using ProtonVPN because when I was setting my rig up for the first time about a year ago, that was the top recommendation. Just do a little research and type in “best VPN for torrenting” into your favorite search engine. Set up your VPN as instructed. You’ll want to make special note of the “openvpn” username/password. You’ll need it later.
    
    2). Next, you’ll need hardware. While any old laptop that’s been sitting around collecting dust is probably fine, you’ll run out of storage on it pretty fast if you want anything more than a few shows and movies. If you’re running out of storage space, I would recommend a Network Attached Storage device (NAS). There’s lots of brands to choose from, but I’m partial to Synology
    
    .3). Next (regardless of hardware) you’ll want to be familiar with Docker and the container model. Essentially, containers allow you to run a little piece of software in a self contained virtual environment. All you have to do is tell docker the containers’ dependencies and configuration and it’ll spin up the container you ask for it.
    
    4). Next you’ll want to get smart on the arr stack. This is a set of services that run in docker containers that can completely automate your piracy activities. At a high level, you specify the TV shows and movies you’re interested in, then the arr stack will search for the torrent, download it, and move it to where your content distribution service is scanning for new media.
    
    5). Not sure where else to put this, but I’d recommend gluetun for the VPN client (this is where you’ll need your openvpn credentials), qBittorent for your torrent client and Jellyfin for your media distribution. These are all services that can run in Docker containers. I’d recommend using the docker containers from fleet.linuxserver.io since they tend to standardize the configuration of their docker containers.

  I think it’s either:
  
  they have to pay residuals to the actors for every stream, and they’d rather not do that
  
  not 100% sure if it applies in this situation, but somehow they can write off the value of media just by making it unavailable, which gives them a tax break

Also why I invested in the hardware and software for Blu-ray ripping. I now have a Pioneer drive in a USB enclosure, and can now rip even 4K Blu-rays from any region. So many special features I was missing out on, though a lot of disc releases are cheaping out on them these days.

Only annoying part about ripping is the freaking maze of playlists on many Blu-rays, especially for Special Features, and none of the player software I’ve tried yet has a feature to tell you what playlist and video file you’re currently watching. So you basically have to rip everything and then check each video file afterwards.

source
- turmacar@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago
  I figure it’s 10% not knowing they could, 20% doing so would make it easier to rip stuff, 70% doing nothing costs them nothing since you’re supposed to be using the Blu-ray interface anyway.

If you have your own domain name+control over the DNS entries, a cute trick you can use for Jellyfin is to set up a fully qualified DNS entry to point to your local (private) IP address.

So, you can have jellyfin.example.com point to 192.168.0.100 or similar. Inaccessible to the outside world (assuming you have your servers set up securely, no port forwarding), but local devices can access.

This is useful if you want to play on e.g. Chromecast/Google TV dongle but don’t want your traffic going over the Internet.

It’s a silly trick to work around the fact that these devices don’t always query the local DNS server (e.g., your router), so you need something fully qualified — but a private IP on a public DNS record works just fine!

source
- UxyIVrljPeRl@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago
  I feel the need to point out that some dns servers block this. In piHole for example, you need to allow this. Some Routers do it too.

  I don’t think fully qualified means what you think it means…
  
  source
  - qjkxbmwvz@startrek.website ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago
    Hmm, my understanding was that FQDN means that anyone will resolve the domain to e.g. the same IP address? Which is the case here (unless DNS rebinding or similar is employed) — but it doesn’t resolve to the same physical host in this case since it’s a private IP. Wikipedia:
    
    A fully qualified domain name is distinguished by its lack of ambiguity in terms of DNS zone location in the hierarchy of DNS labels: it can be interpreted only in one way.
    
    In my example, I can run nslookup jellyfin.myexample.com 8.8.8.8 and it resolves to what I expect (a local IP address).
    
    But IANA network professional by any means, so maybe I’m misusing the term?

Desperately wanted to watch Young Frankenstein in the week before Halloween. It’s just the right kind of relaxing spooky comedy. Tried to find it legally. Honestly tried for longer than I am willing to admit. For a few years, the subscriptions were just so convenient, and I didn’t have to worry about getting a virus or knowing which link to click. Well, no Young Frankenstein was the final straw. Bring on the high seas!

  I did the math and with current HDD prices it’s legit cheaper to rip DVDs as 1:1 copies and store them on a NAS vs buying the shelf space my 1000+ movies and TV shows would need.
  
  I’ll keep physical copies of the rares and classics, but the rest will be donated after I’ve digitised them.

Is jellyfin considerably better than plex for local and offline usage?

source

  Personal preference, really. For me, jellyfin is much simpler to use, very easy to self-host in docker. And the clients are great too. I use desktop, android and roku regularly.
  
  source
- GhiLA@sh.itjust.works ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago
  Better is subjective.
  
  Simpler in a more streamlined sense, yes. Plex is more hands-off, and is doing a lot behind the scenes to automatically configure itself to your hardware for the best transcoding experience and such.
  
  Jellyfin needs a little more work but can get there, it just needs to be shown the hardware and be configured correctly, but I find Jellyfin to be simpler and less cluttered overall when properly finished, with less strings attached to a parent company.
