@— 2B- :

I suggest choosing an image you like and setting it as your profile picture in your display settings, like I have.
That way, no one can pretend to be you as "Anon" since your account would have a unique image.
Fortunately, anonymous users can’t have a profile picture, so you’ll be fine.

Yeah, yeah, sophistry and excuses, whatever you say...

I still don't understand what your frustrations are.
No, I don't like any form of harassment here, which is why I pointed out your instance of it. I may overlook it at times (like I have with you), but it's not indicative of it being seen as favorable or accepted in any way, and I do step in if I feel it goes too far (i.e. now).

I don't give a damn about impartiality. If you don't want to be singled out, act like a reasonable person.

Admin, come and rescue -2b- again.... hahahaha

Who is this "-2B-" you keep speaking of? Yourself?

Thanks for confirming. Now everyone knows that only -2B- and some other favorites are allowed to harass other people. Nice job.

If you didn't do anything in the past, why would you do it now, just pretending to be impartial?
Don't mind me, we can all see what's going on. Keep on with your little bullying group. Feel free to delete this comment too. Peace out.

If you have an issue with someone, explain it so that it can be resolved. Harassing others is not excusable regardless of what is being done to you.

That's a bit petty...

and now Admin, calling other a "troll" is not "harassing" people? Let's see what you are going to do about it.

Poor troll...

Thank you!

It’s strange how you jump in to defend some users and not others, it feels like the admin have some favorites here. And no, feel free to delete my comment. Maybe fake -2B- will stop crying about it

Can you please stop harassing others here?

Nice username buddy!

admin could you please rid the site of this AI slop?

Thanks, but just pasting the AI RESPONSE IS NOT NECESSARY, as I mentioned in the question.

Here, if you are able to understand, don't need to cry about it.

Thanks for your response, it is clear now.

Thanks for your response.

God forbid I try to help anyone I guess. But I'm afraid you haven't addressed the x264 part.

If you transcode and encode the same video to another codec, it will inevitably lead to quality degradation due to the nature of video compression.

So, if you have an HEVC video and transcode it to AV1, then transcode it again to HEVC, you will lose quality at each step: first from the original BD to HEVC, then from HEVC to AV1, and from AV1 back to HEVC (resulting in blurriness, pixelation, etc.). That is why a visual side-by-side comparison of sample frames is the most efficient way to assess quality loss.

The question is clear enough to understand, so be a ware of fake users just fusing around to get attention.

There is no method to determine the previous codec from the final file alone.

The only way is to get the person encoding the file to tell you that it originated from an HEVC source (in your case) but then, what tells you that HEVC used for the encode was not itself reencoded from a VP9 source? That that VP9 encode was not also reencoded from NVENC (h264/h265) source? Etc.

SOURCE => NVENC => HEVC => VP9 => HEVC : could you tell that last HEVC took this road to "be" ? Nope.

So no, there's no magical way to get any certainty, you can only assess the damage.

Thanks for your response.

I very much understand the abbreviations, it's that your question was very poorly worded. And the answer below is quite simply misconstrued.

Why would you respond to a question if you do not understand the abbreviations or the question itself. Any way i already have my awnser.

Yes, I thought that would be the case. Thanks.

The only way is to use forensic tools and perform a side-by-side comparison. You will need to have an original and a supposedly re-encoded version. Once encoded and altered, the 'new' video can be re-encoded to another codec, assuming new properties. I Hope it helps, seek for forensic video tools.

Sorry if my answer wasn't up to your standards, it's just that your question itself is very confusing. What do you mean by "some other x264"? Could you perhaps word it a little better? People here also have no idea what this "AI" you're mentioning has said.

EDIT: Did you perhaps mean something along the lines of: "How to tell if a remake/re-encode has been re-encoded to AV1 or some other codec?" I'm really trying to understand what you're asking. Maybe an example would help...

Thanks, but AI already mention mediainfo and about the tag from nyaa will not apply to downloaded shows.
About your statement "The codec (HEVC/H.265/x265, AVC/H.264/x264, AV1 etc) don't really matter...", is not true, it matters for some of us and that is the point of the question.

Please, if someone else has a more academic answer, feel free to comment, thanks.

The "Remake" tag on nyaa (which looks like this here) is the first indicator that a release was re-encoded more than once. However it's not always respected, so the description is just as valuable to tell if it's a re-encode. And you can check the mediainfo for any clues of leftover metadata giving out which release was used as a source, like the track names. The codec (HEVC/H.265/x265, AVC/H.264/x264, AV1 etc) don't really matter since you can freely encode from one to the other.

How to tell if a video HEVC was re-encoded to AV1 or some other x264?
Please don't paste respose from AI, i would like to know from personal info or technique.
Thanks

Thank you, it is!

"Bye Bye, Earth" maybe?

Hello,
What was the "girl finds magic sword" anime, more recent than Tenken but with an excessively complicated world-building, that was essentially impossible to follow due to non-linear storytelling? It was based on a famous, older LN which many considered unanimable and was indeed ill-received. TiA!

Thanks

Sorry about that, fixed now.

Is the scrapping on the website working? There are already new episodes in Nyaa.

gintama episode 11 where is it??

Anyone knows? https://aniyolo.com

yep, confirmed

seems like the site stopped updating

Beside the "useful" comments, more sources the better.

Forbidden where?

As long as it's listed on AniDB it's allowed on nyaa.

Is the movie 연의 편지 (Your Letter) forbidden here for being korean manhwa sourced?

Obsessed much?

It's popular but mostly for fansubbers, if you read the wiki, they made that site for fansubbers highlighting who contributed to what.

In that case, you can stop yapping.

If someone told you that you yap and you reject the claim that means you're simply delusional. It's not that deep.
