Like others I've seen torrenting my episodes instead, but man... I miss the convenience.
Don't get me wrong - torrents are great, but for me they're the best when I want to binge watch a complete series and/or keep it indefinitely. I'm typically following ~10 series/season = episodes/week; I need to find the series in a certain torrent site, then download it, watch it, seed it... it's a bit of a bother, you know.
Hey.
Want convenience?
Miru is more convenient than even crunchyroll from what I experienced.
https://miru.watch/
Going to test this later, thank you!
Any updates?
I'm curious how it handles the low seed torrents. You know, the ones with like 3 seeders that aren't guaranteed to be active and the only meaningful progress you'll make comes from one random Swedish person with really good internet that comes online at odd hours of the night...
Awesome, thanks!
I've been recommended to use this by a friend, and miru does not disappoint
I mainly use it to watch the remaining episodes that I havent added to my jellyfin server yet tho
I busted off my convenience for a little bit when setting up Plex + Riven + Zurg (the same could be said about my Arr stack) after that huge learning curve it is all about convenience baby, I get all my stuff in all my devices with one single account, keep the progress of the full library even pair it up with services such as Trakt, and I can even share the love.
For currently airing/weekly stuff, you can use RSS to get all the episodes as they come out. Just make sure your search is only getting the episodes you want before you add it to your client. That means asides from the show title, also add the sub group and bitrate if they release more than one.
It's a tiny bit more work to set up, but once it's done, episodes just show up as they come out. :)
I just tested this now. This is brilliant, thank you for the idea! I wasn't even aware that the torrent site could generate RSS for search queries!
For now I'm simply following those RSS feeds through liferea, but later on I might even automate it further.
I use Taiga for tracking anime, and it can auto download torrents, my torrent client can auto add torrents downloaded by taiga. For airing stuff I don't auto download things using taiga though, as it will usually take the first and best torrent it finds, so I opt to just check what's foud and double click the matches when they are the right version.
