Jackett Reviews

The Ultimate Automated Media Setup for Movies & TV Shows
Jackett works as a proxy server: it translates queries from apps (Sonarr, Radarr, SickRage, CouchPotato, Mylar, etc) into tracker-site-specific http queries, parses the html response, then sends results back to the requesting software. This allows for getting recent uploads (like RSS) and performing searches. Jackett is a single repository of maintained indexer scraping &...

  • Where to watch Daria w/ original soundtrack?
    Grab this file. Install Transmission on Mac or Deluge on Win. Optional: run a VPN if you're in the US(mostly) and worried about your ISP sending you a cease-and-desist notice. Open the file using the app you installed. Wait. It should start within a minute or two and download progress will be seen. Speed depends on how many people are sharing it. Any issues, let me know.

  • Serum Crack (NO TORRENT)
    Why "NO TORRENT"? Just get TransmissionBT and torrent whatever you want. Source: 10 months ago
  • A server for download files (torrents and direct download).
    Transmission can run as a headless server with a web gui. Source: 11 months ago
  • first time getting something like this. what should i do & how do i prevent more?
    Get a VPN like Windscribe(set windscribe firewall to on instead of auto), forward your port via their website. Use a good torrent client like https://transmissionbt.com/ set that port in the options, and add a blocklist https://github.com/Naunter/BT\_BlockLists/raw/master/bt\_blocklists.gz.
