I would like to have a certain show ripped and stored on my pc but I cant find any rips of it on the internet. I would buy the subscription myself and share it online but Im not that good at ripping stuff (for sure not as good as groups). Actually, i know. shit about that, I know streamfab rips from max but only. up to 720p. So, is there any place I could ask someone to rip smth? the speed in which big companies delete. content nowadays is so dam fast, the remastered version of show im looking for might be lost media in fuckin days. have a good day dudes

it's hard to find a show that isn't on a tracker somewhere

True for English shows, I had substantially harder time finding non-English shows.

Private trackers have REQ section for asking for content and setting a bounty.

too difficult for me to get into one. Im not that of a big user. I seed what I watch, but Im rather picky. plus time limited. soooo, yeah im not in those

If you use usenet, many indexers have a requests section. I've had a couple filled at NZBgeek in the past.

In fact, someone might actually find that TUBI rips of OPs requested show have been posted to NZBgeek 38 days ago. Theoretically.

Edit: word of warning on the quality, not all episodes on TUBI seem to have gotten the same treatment. Some are noticeably lower res than others.

How about you tell us which show, that way at least someone might have a pointer for you.

Its a pup named scooby-doo, available on max, vudu and prime I bielieve. All I found were trashy dvd rips.

Bro, that show aired from 1988-1991. You’re not going to find remastered 4k Scooby-doo. Take pie when pie is passed.

What’s the show called? What service is it on?

It was originally released in 480, so those DVD rips are probably the “best” quality-wise (unless they did some work on it before releasing for streaming).

If that’s the case it’s probably easier to rent the discs and rip them. Obviously this is a piracy community but hey, technically it’s still piracy if you’re copying rented discs am I right?

well, dvd rips are available but indeed they did some work on them before releasing them. I know for sure that season 2 was remastered and released on tubi because I found a rip of that. Im assuming that on onther streamings they also have remastered version

Yeah, I downloaded it but... its an upscale. Blurry, bad for eye (at least for me) Id rather watch og dvd than this upscale. However, other upscales by frys are great. Its just the thing of source - gotta have good source. And now I know for sure it is availabe upscaled on max. At least 2,3 and 4 season. First season is irrepairable. due to some technical issues - it was coloured after creating and cannot be rescaned. So, 1st season is best in og dvd rip and 2nd 3rd and 4th are remastered on max.

Even if it's 720p should beat the dvdrip version so just download it using streamfab.

The 1080p if it's available on MAX then it will come eventually. I already saw 720p web-dl.
