Touhou lossless music collection v.17 (1.26 TiB or 1 390 550 098 097 bytes).
Torrent file size is 7 352 840 bytes.

Pictures torrent (cover/booklet scans):

  3. List of Xunlei users to ban (up to 8 July 13)

    1. But they are dynamic address,in China

      Delete
    2. Yeah... is there any point in manually banning old dynamic IPs from years past? It's better to ban Xunlei users on sight, as opposed to using a list which will always become outdated.

      FYI, the two main Chinese ISPs, China Unicom and China Telecom, both use dynamic IPs. These two ISPs pretty much cover 75% of private (non-governmental) broadband users.

      Delete
    3. Discrimination based on user-modifiable id string is super retarded. Next thing you know, someone releases a Xunlei that id's itself as uTorrent. Now what?

      Judge their behaviour, not looks. Adopt better reciprocation algorithms.

  5. how long does hashing usually take?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. At first thought I'd estimate, then remembered I keep a log of that.
      This time it's 135 minutes for main torrent, 18 minutes for images, 2 minutes for supplementary. Triple that because of 3x hashing because of spurious read errors (see previous threads, currently also suspecting queue_depth parameter), up to 24 hours between hashing start and end because job and sleep.

    2. I understand. I put most of them into the wikis, but having a centralized source would make batch-processing easier. Besides, lyrics are suplementary material, are they not? So, having two sources for lyrics doesn't harm either, hm?

  14. Is there any way to make Foobar see individual tracks rather than just the one giant track for the entire album?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. You have to use the cue sheets (extract them from 7z-file).

      Delete
    2. Thank you, that worked. Interestingly (or maybe not) I have to place the cue sheets into the same folder that the .tta file is located in or otherwise I get a playback error. I'm not sure if this is abnormal behaviour or not as this is the first time I've downloaded a torrent like this. IF this is normal then would it be possible for future torrents to have the cue sheet already in the same folder with the .tta file? Or would this cause other problems?

      Delete
    3. Don't know how you extracted the 7z-file, but you're supposed to extract the entire archive in the root folder of TLMC, because the folder structure is already deposited in the archive.
      If you need a better tool for that, go to http://www.7-zip.org/

      Delete
    4. I extracted it with WinRAR. By default WinRAR just creates a folder with the same name as the rar file and deposits all the cue sheets into there. I just had to change where it extracts the sheets to so they would be deposited into their respective folders rather than a new folder. Again thank you for the help.

      Delete
  15. I'm having trouble getting the torrent updated(never succeeded before). I suppose I did as instructed, place the ren17.py under the Touhou lossless music collection, run the script(got split second command prompt). Then run the new torrent (I did with utorrent 3.3), it shows up everything as 0% complete(booklet and tta) just like a fresh torrent. I assume this is not the effect it suppose to have when working properly.

    BTW, awesome collection you provided. Thanks

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. If you take a look at the .py code you'll find that it can only empty and rename folders. It's to keep the structure updated to later point the new torrent over it.
      Point the new torrent to that folder and re-check it, alternatively you can use the option "Force Re-Check" if you have already pointed it.
      Cheers^^

      Delete
    2. Okay... It somehow worked this time around, although the files show up as 9x% complete instead of 100%, but that's good enough. I didn't point the directory to the previous download last time(which was a stupid mistake). But I do believe I did so for the attempts before the last. I guess recheck was what I need to do. Anyways, thanks for your reply.

  16. rwx in the TLMC v.16 post I shared you some lost albums that aren't in this new update D:
    You saw them?

    ReplyDelete
  17. rwx, this CUE file is ridiculously long and I had to view the file and save it manually in order to "extract" it.

    \Touhou lossless music collection\[556ミリメートル]\2013.05.26 [MMCD-0005~6] 556mm THE BEST Vol.01 -Dancing Girls Best- [例大祭10]\556mm THE BEST Vol.01 -Dancing Girls Best- Disc2 Instrumental Side\556mm THE BEST Vol.01 -Dancing Girls Best- Disc2 Instrumental Side.cue

    Granted, the torrent writes to the default location at Touhou lossless music collection (I think?) which contributes towards the maximum file length... is anyone else having this issue, or do people just rename their root folder? (I've even got this sitting in just the root, so it's C:\Touhou lossless music collection\)

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Thanks for the report. I could extract the cue sheet and uTorrent downloaded the .tta just fine, but foobar2000 didn't index the file, because file path was too long. I renamed the root to TLMC (D:\TLMC in my case) and now it works.
      My total playtime is now 19wk 3d 1:15:15.677. Am I still missing something or is this the supposed maximum??

      Delete
    2. OP here. I'm looking at 19wk 4d 10:05:45, but I could be wrong having an outdated/duplicated .cue somewhere. If anyone else can confirm that would be great. :)

  18. I have a question, I have an old copy of the Touhou collection, I'm like 80% done, there's no one seeding it anymore. Is there a way to download the new version without starting over?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. You don't have to start over. You just run the Python update script above, then run this torrent on top of that one. You'll start downloading the new one on top of that, resuming from where the old one left off.

  19. I was in the middle of downloading the v16 torrent and when I updated it, it went from 50% to 25%. Why has this happened?

    1. This comes up regularly, I'll write a detailed explanation later.

      For now: this is normal and should be expected. If you're on a slow internet you're probably better off downloading v16 in its entirety first. You could switch back now and reclaim the missing percentage unless your torrent client is extremely weird.

      >Do you want me to rip them to tta+cue or maybe you want disks images so you can rip then yourself?
      It's an almost irrelevant distinction. Since they're AudioCD, most losses could occur on the first stage (transfer from optical physical media): one-pass burst read vs. repeated read, enabled cache, wrong sample offset, etc. When you have a disk image all potential errors, if any, are already there, and it's essentially all the disc has, a raw PCM stream. Then you simply add a WAV header and run it through the encoder.

      I'd worry more about the scans.

    3. About your FreeBSD, you need to run the script from the environment with a unicode-aware locale such as en_US.UTF-8 or the like, plain C doesn't cut it. I might have to add it to requirements just to be safe, though.

    4. Ah, thanks for that tip. Now my terminal also properly displays kana, too. Cheers! o/

      Now if only the TLMC torrents had seeds. ;__;

  50. Hello! I really appreciate your effort, but there is one album missing from yellow zebra "escalation". I would be very happy if you could add it to the torrent! thank you ;)

  51. As for this torrent having no seeds: I think the problem is actually with the trackers. I'm still seeding this, but I noticed my client doesn't see any peers at all lately while there were plenty of leechers to seed to in the past (managed to get to a 6.2 ratio). When I took a closer look it simply seems that the primary tracker's domain (kekesoft.org) is DNS-dead and the backup tracker (openbittorrent) seems to be down as well, even though the homepage is working fine. rwx, could you perhaps update the torrent with the addition of at least two working public trackers? And/or fix the kekesoft tracker of course.

    1. kekesoft isn't mine, so can't fix it. I'll go look for high-availability public tracker, I thought OBT was doing fine.

    2. Also, both trackers being down shouldn't affect the swarm a lot, as there is always DHT.

    3. Oh, I was under the impression you maintained that tracker specifically for this torrent. And I thought OBT was fine too but there were problems a while back and it looks like this is the case again now. Note how the homepage doesn't even contain the tracker URI anymore and just starts with 'Are there other open bittorrent trackers?'.

      Thanks for taking a look at it. I have DHT disabled because it tends to destabilize my rtorrent and I don't want to take the risk of it interfering with privately tracked torrents by accident.

    4. It looks like OpenBitTorrent is up and well again.
