That's really weird, I'm using the same image to run two instances of qbit behind gluetun without any issues whatsoever.

Why would a subtitle repo be taken down? AFAIK creating and distributing subtitles for media is legal everywhere?

I don't run a cloud-based seedbox, but I have a gigabit uplink on my server at home and often have very low seed speeds of <500KiBs (with plenty of usable overhead). I do see it spiking to ~18 MiBs sometimes but most of my torrents are just sitting there without actually seeding, so i suspect it's mostly the torrents I have seeding that's the "issue" for me.

Funny, i couldn't get HW encoding to work with the linuxserver.io docker image, but the exact same compose file, except it's using the official image, works just fine without any issues.

I've never "bought" digital streaming media for that exact reason, so that happened impacted me personally. I didn't trust them to begin with and I was right in not doing so. But yeah, that's definitely also a shitty move and valid reason to pirate IMO.

Yeah they're fighting really hard to combat piracy, but at the same time all their decisions are what is actively pushing their customers (back) to piracy.

First time, it was because I was a kid that couldn't pay for the movies/music/games I wanted. The high seas provided me with a solution for that.

Then I started making money and Netflix streaming came along making it both cheap and convenient. I docked my ship and forgot about my pirate life for a long time. Everything was good, living a quiet life...

But then the corporate greed caught up and ruined everything. Streaming prices became absurd, content got fragmented to way too many services and they fucking started introducing ads.

So here I am, setting sail once again. I didn't need or want this, but they have forced my hand with their infinite greed.

I just bought a 4k 60hz loopthrough usb3 card so I can start saving the media I want from the services I still subscribe to. What software do you use for recording?

Fair enough, I just saw so many using GPUs and how much faster it was and assumed it was the same size-wise with the files. I'm getting ~40fps with my CPU, so it's going to take forever to do all of it.

Maybe I worded it poorly, I'm doing h264 -> h265 in both cases, but it increases file size when using iGPU.

I actually just got it working, after spending all day yesterday. The speed is magnificent, but the compression rate is absolutely abysmal. When i use the integrated GPU an h264 encoded file end up taking up 5-10% more space when converted to h265, whereas when just use CPU an h264->h265 is around a 45% reduction in size. I have no use for speed if it doesn't reduce file size at all.

Excellent, thanks
