   My question is: “Why are the OP/ED missing from the episodes?” And your answer is “see above”

   Can u give me more detail than “see above”
   I don’t want to setup just like your guiding in playback page” It’s too complicated for me !
   I use K-lite code pack to watching mkv file, and your anime encore don’t show ED, OP. Can u help me to use K-lite to play. because I still have many movie and anime of another fansubs. I can’t uninstall every code and media player i have to install like u say.

   I used to use SM Player (what the hell does it mean “standalone” ? ) and VLC to play ur things but it didn’t show video.

   So how can i use K-lite to play your things but don’t lose ED, OP ? (of course i place them in same folder)

   Thank you guys anyway (for your release)

   Hi! I have a question about ordered chapters. Everything works fine, no issue with them, just that some shows like Hidan no Aria, True Tears when I play them with everything in the same folder (ED, OP) so i can have ordered chapters working the fonts are wrong, whilst without the ED/OP in the same folder the fonts are like it was supposed to be. Any idea?

   Q: Why can’t I hear the characters but everything else?
   A: Because your player isn’t properly down-mixing the surround sound (it’s simply discarding channels). Check your audio settings, make sure to set everything to stereo/2.0 down-mixing.

   But how exactly do I change my audio settings?

    Do you have a filipino member/subber?

    I noticed that “baka” was supposed to mean stupid/idiot but in an episode of Ano natsu de matteru, “Cow” was shown instead! that was cool and funny at the same time. (baka is cow in our language – filipino)

    Hey, I would like to know if there is a way for me to put animes with ordered chapters (Toradora for example) back to how it normally would be with the opening and ending in each episode. Im a fan of your releases, and i like hardsubbing them then re-muxing them for PS3,Xbox,Ipad,etc compatability. However, since its in ordered chapters, i have to use Aegisub to add in the subs for the OP & ED and re-time everything. Also use another program to do the same with the audio. I do it for every episode, but its a pain. Would like to know a way to fix this without so much a$$ busting. Would apreciate some help or a link to a tutorail 😀

    Hi,

    I’ve download “Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Bokutachi wa Mada Shiranai” from that site but it appears to be hardsubbed. Is there any way to delete these subs since I would like to apply my own subtitles for private use?
    Also, I’d like to know if the rest of the series there have been done in the same manner – hardsub, that is.
    They are great, yet checking up for some unknown words during the episode is pretty tiring for foreigners :> Anyways, I will surely continue watching this quality series from that site and I appreciate your hard work.

    Cheers.

    There’s nothing hardsubbed here. Just disable the internal mkv subtitles and use your external ass file.

    Can anybody show me how to convert the anime video without losing any piece of the OP and ED? When I convert it with the OP and ED in the same folder with the video, the output have the OP and ED but not the music with it, but the audio of the scene after the OP. If I remove the OP, ED from the folder that have the other episode and convert it, the output don’t have any OP ED.

    Why on EARTH would they remaster SEED of all things..?! If Sunrise/Bandai wanna remaster a spinoff universe, it should be Wing or G Gundam. ∀ Gundam would be cool too….

    That said – I’m pretty sure War Drama anime isn’t anything Coalgirls are even interested in. The closest we’ve had to a Gundam release here was E7, GC and Macross Frontier…. And some thing called Geass that I may or may not wish wasn’t a thing…

    I’m having trouble playing back some .ts files. encoded in mpeg2. The sound just cuts down randomly in the video, or it will only play through one speaker. All the rest of my videos play perfectly, except some wmv also don’t scroll (i move on the scroll bar and it just goes back to the currently played spot, nothing happens).

    Does anyone know the settings I need to use, in order to play back wmv and my .ts files correctly?

    I was wondering how to force stereo/2.0 downmixing on VLC for mac. I have ver. 2.06 and for the life of me I can get the 5.1 surround to play properly. Trying to watch Evangelion and it sucks when you can’t hear the dialogue. Any help would be greatly appreciated xD

      Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be any way to get VLC to down-mix it correctly >_>
      Here is a special built of mpv that down-mixes 6.1 correctly: http://sva.wakku.to/~chris/mpv_builds/mpv_audio3.zip
      I hope you are on recent hardware (SandyBridge CPU or up) and recent OS (Mountain Lion), as it won’t work on older hardware/systems.
      Here you can find info on how to operate it: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/DOCS/man/en/mpv.rst
      Edit: I noticed that the .app-bundle doesn’t work. You need to open a Terminal Windows, navigate to the mpv binary in mpv.app/Contents/MacOS/mpv, drag that in the window, leave a space and then drag in the file you want to play. Then hit enter.

    Hello!! First of all, thank you for your word, I really enjoy your releases.
    I would like to ask for recommendation about Seedbox. Sorry if this is not posted in the right section. I moved to another country and the conexion I`m using has a limit for month, that`s why I think having a Seedbox would be really usefull for me right now. I started reading about them but I can`t choose one. I though it would be a good idea to ask for recommendation in order to use it to download your releases, not having problems with torrents, but not a very expensive one.
    I hope you could tell me some ones.
    Thank you

    I’m just wondering, no malicious intent or implying anything here, but do you or the premises you operate in to bring us your releases ever get raided/searched/apprehended/etc? How often do your servers get attacked in whatever form by whoever it might be (i.e. the feds)? I’m not trying to get you caught, I really love your releases, but I am just very very curious about this.

    Hello, just wanted to say thank you for the great uploads, these are some amazing quality anime you got there.

    However lately i’ve noticed the DHT and local peer exchange/discovery has been not allowed for my downloads. Is there something wrong on my side like my router or utorrent or is it because of the torrent becoming private? (Something i saw after looking it up online) Thanks for any help you send my way!

      Some older torrents were accidentally set to private during creation. It’s not possible to change that without recreating the torrents which would require to reseed them.

      However, as long as you download the torrents from our site and our tracker is up, this shouldn’t be a problem.

    Hey I checked my KM and VLC players and neither of them play a certain torrent I got from you guys normally. The problem is simply audio from characters. I understand you say I need to check my settings, but I checked my settings and I don’t see anything relating to where it says I should ” set everything to stereo/2.0 down-mixing.” Please help. If you know how to use KM player can you guide me on what I should do to get the normal audio set? Thanks for you time
