What Hacker News says
5 sourcesPretty cool. I'm hunting for alternatives to Netflix DVD. I've been checking out Café DVD as a possibility but haven't actually tried it - it might not have as large a catalog.
Another thing I've been meaning to try, but haven't yet, is hooking up VLC to https://github.com/k4yt3x/video2x/wiki or similar, since, yeah, while DVD quality is pretty decent, for certain genres sometimes I do want a bit more luscious detail.
In My streaming fatigue got so bad I started collecting DVDsI like video2x[1] for this, a nice simple CLI with lots of different options for different cases, (especially the anime upscalers) used it quite a bit, also played with realcugan-ncnn-vulkan[2] which has given me pretty great results.
