catch and release

Brilliant phrase! I'm an archiver myself partly because it takes me ages to watch things, and partly because some things get returned to again and again. I could definitely do with a cull, but it's easier to commit to more storage.

What number is in parentheses? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Good question. I assume it's DHT delivering peers that aren't in the tracker(s), or maybe a problem with the tracker(s).

The format's "# connected (# total)" in every client I've seen.

Uhhh oh in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Question regarding ripping dvds (yes DVDs) in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Handbrake isn't recommended any more? That's what I'd used for my ripping. By original quality, you mean extracting the the mpeg-2 or just that Handbrake did bad transcoding?
