Looks like all the links for free episodes (especially dead fish) are being removed, also the pages claim they are duplicates of the same page, which means you can't see any comments for them like tibbs ddl links (davvas ones don't get removed like most of the rest)

Oh okay, thanks for the info!

Is your CPU really that slow? Even a 6 year old Q6600 or Phenom X4 is pretty good at encoding. Even with an older AthlonX2 or laptop Core2 you could probably get real time (~24fps) encoding for 480p content using x264 medium/fast presets.
Even if it's 5-7 hours, I'd probably just leave it running overnight, but I do suppose it's less convenient than a simple server fetch...

You are correct about bandwidth limitations, but I fail to see the connection it has with a script bug...

I thought bandwidth over usage might be the reason that the files where being skipped and that donations would allow for a better server with less upload restrictions. Sorry if i sounded rude in the comment towards you.

i am on free one. no way i will be paying for it. :)
a new pc will be always better option ^^
i got free bandwidth by referring to friends which is fairly easy
it encodes whole Movie in just 1 hour or less so i kept using it for fun. :)
on my current pc it would be 5-7 hours. i use libx264 which is H.264 AVC
and i custom set all available encoding parameters to get away
with good quality using CRF. quality looks pretty good on
standard CRT Monitors, LCDs and mobile phone. no problems so far.
although not sure how bad quality will look on True HD Monitors and HDTV.
seriously i should just buy new pc so i can do even better quality encoding but damn it i can't ;_;

That's something I haven't seen before. From what I can gather, it's basically a web interface for ffmpeg?
(When I meant FTP access, I actually meant to the encoding server itself, which is different from fetching files via FTP)

I just used their quick test and it didn't give many options - perhaps free/paid tiers give these.

Are you paying for this though? From looking at their pricing page, the free tier doesn't give you much. Price goes up fairly steep after that.
Considering that you can get a fully dedicated server with a good CPU for around €30 - €40 (around US$40 - $53 at time of writing) per month, the value in the higher plans seem to thin out for most people.

Thanks for the pointer though - I can see where you're coming from now.

Thanks for the notice!

I am, however, intrigued about how you believe that adding a donate button fixes server problems? Enlighten me.
