I’ve been having trouble since rarbg shut down and have been having to manually check downloaded files because so many of them are poor quality, not even playable or completely different movies/shows. YTS has been decent for movies but over the last 48 hours it’s been failing (maybe because of the cloudflare issue but who knows)
- I know the easiest solution would be to cough up the money for a usenet sub but I don’t want to unless absolutely necessary.
- I’m not on any private trackers.
So what public torrent indexers do you use and what order do you have them in?
1337x is pretty damn good, look into flaresolverr for the Cloudflare, it’s a bit hit or miss (cat and mouse game there) but useful. Also Limetorrents, EZTV and good old piratebay are worth it IMO.
curious what version of flaresolverr you’re using? I have it running in docker, and although I realize it is a cat and mouse game, the cat seems to be winning a LARGE majority of the time for me, and 1337 is nearly always disabled as a result.
I get the same general message, “challenge detected”, and not able to win. at one point, I looked through the output of my flaresolverr instance but was ultimately not able to piece together anything meaningful (by my understanding).
Er, current (I use podman autoupdate). Often it’s the second time you try that it works (takes a while to work and times out), can also be a hard block on your vpn egress IP, then change it, test to see if you can reach it in your browser. Also you arr may have decided it’s not working and turn it off, check system errors. Currently my log has detected, challenge solved, response in 18 - 40 s, so it’s definitely slow at the moment.
helpful insights, thank you for sharing!
Never heard of flaresolver, thanks for the tip!
I don’t think I have Limetorrents enabled so will add that too. Is that the priority order you have them in then? Leet, lime, eztv and then tpb?
It is not recommended to run the arr stack through a VPN because cloudflare will cause problems. Only the torrent client should go through the VPN.
Yeah, I just don’t want my ISP knowing what I’m doing at all.
Try prowlarr.
I’m using prowlarr, I’m asking about the specific indexers within prowlarr and their order
Cool. I activate all of the public ones. They come and go and rate limit and such. So just use them all. Unless you want to pay or try to find an invite to a free private one. That I can’t help with. But it works for me. Takes a little longer to search all of them, but it’s usually in the background so no big deal for me.
Nice try FBI
Haha
Just sent you a message, but if you want an invite I’ve gotchu Other than that I think mine is set up with private, then TPB, 1337x and YTS (I think in that order) for public. The private seems to catch most of what I need and then the other 2 catch most of the other stuff
I’d be interested in an invite as well, if you’re willing.
https://knaben.org/ is an aggregator. I dont sail often, but if i do, and i know what i want is not very recent (like made available in last week) then i go there first
Add a bunch to Prowlarr (filter by public, Torrent, Language, category) and then monitor the stats in Prowlarr to remove the ones not working out for you.
MagnetDownload has the highest number of successful grabs for me. Followed by TorrentProject2. I run a Bitmagnet instance though, and I have that as highest piority.
I keep getting annoying fake torrents where they put a bunch of junk into an archive and then give that the name of the thing that I’m tracking. The *arrs say “yep, file’s there, you might need to extract it yourself though, not sure what’s going on there” and Jellyfinn just never gets the files, because they’re not real.
