“round file” is a cute name for a garbage can.

It used to be 12 months, and I was so mad at that that I stopped subscribing, used all my credits, and basically never went back. I won’t even consider subscribing again so long as things I pay for don’t continue to be mine. I paid for the those credits, and they should be there forever until I use them. If they don’t like that, they should give my money back instead.
I’m really surprised about this. Amazon got called on their arbitration clause so much that they removed it because it was so expensive.
Roku is practically asking for people to do the same to them. They could even do it about this clause, IMO. (I am not a lawyer.) This is a really dumb clause to have these days.
Legit?
If you’re only watching on 1 TV, I don’t think there’s any reason to keep them a separate 4k library. And if your server can handle transcoding easily, there’s still not much reason.
If you have an often-used second (or third, etc) TV with lower resolution and your server doesn’t handle transcoding well, then it’s probably worth keeping them separate.
I’ve also started to disagree with the guide about file size. I don’t think I can tell the difference, and I’m not trying to preserve media for the future. So long as the video has the features I want, I think just about any file size is fine.
I turned on the video upscaling initially when I got mine, and then turned it off immediately and left it off. I hated it. I would rather watch 1080 native than upscale it.
Like you, I don’t see that setting, and only see the one you see. I don’t think it exists. I think they just had it backwards.
It makes no sense to delete movie files when clicking unmonitor.
I think the newer ones have a single SATA. I’d probably go the NAS route even if it had 3 connectors, though. There’s something about having my data storage separate from my computing that I like. I’ve been trying to figure out exactly what since I’ve been typing this, and I’ve failed, though. :D
If companies can say they can respond to my concerns within 2 business days, then companies can also take 2 business days to take down reported content. It takes a human being to review that stuff and it’s not instant. If it was, trolls would end up with everything being taken down. UFC’s outrage that it can take “hours” to remove the content is ridiculous.
I don’t see Watchtower in there anywhere. Even just used as a simple on-demand updater, it’s worth the time to set it up. (Which is pretty minimal anyhow.) But it can also just run automatically and keep things up to date all the time.
Most good clients should start seeding from an existing file if you find the original torrent on the web somewhere. Or even one that just has that same file in it.
I bought one recently for 4k BRs. It’s awful, even though I bought one of the highest-recommended ones. They’re still slow, lose your place, and generally suck. And if there’s any dirt on the disc, you’ve got a major problem, no matter how small the smudge.
And that isn’t even counting the problems with the format, such as unskippable intros and copyright notices.
Ripped media is so, so superior that it’s absolutely ridiculous.
It sounds interesting, but… Android only? I don’t actually watch much video on my phone. It’s mostly on my desktop browser.
To expand upon that, I had something similar to the OP’s setup at one point, and I found things worked a lot better when the files could be moved on the same volume, rather than appearing as separate volumes (because they were mounted separately). I ended up re-engineering my whole setup for that and it’s much faster now.
As for duplicates… I assume this is so you can continue seeding after the file has been moved? I can’t think of anything that would fit the bill for that off the top of my head. Ideally, I think you’d want QBT to just start serving from the new location instead, though I admit hard links does sound like a solution that could work.
And after Googling, it seems like it already does hard links for torrents for this exact reason. I think if you just map /media (and drop the 2 maps you have after that) things will work like you want.
