How to download

Step by step

1. Find the production. Use the search box at the top of any page, browse a category, or walk the A–Z index. If it is not here at all, ask for it on the request board — the most-voted requests are uploaded first.
2. Open the production page and look at the download table. Each row is one quality, with the exact file size next to it.
3. Press the button on the row you want. That takes you to a download page for that one file.
4. On the download page you are shown which server you have been assigned. Press the big download button and the file starts.

Which quality should you pick?

The catalogue tops out at 720p. Files are never upscaled, so a production from a lower-resolution source shows fewer rows — three files instead of four is normal and does not mean anything is missing.

• 720p — the sharpest we carry. Best on a tablet, a laptop or a TV, and the largest file.
• 480p — the usual choice. Looks fine on a phone and costs roughly half of 720p.
• 360p — for mobile data or a slow connection. Watchable on a phone screen.
• 240p — smallest possible. Pick it when storage or data is the constraint, not picture quality.

Why a quality you expected is not listed

A row appears only where a download server actually holds that file. If a rendition is still copying out to the servers, or the operator did not produce that quality for this production, there is no row for it — rather than a button that would fail when you pressed it.

If a production shows no downloads at all, the files are still being prepared or replicated. Come back to the same page later; the URL does not change.

Your download link stopped working

Download links are deliberately short-lived. This is the single most common thing people write in about, and all three causes have the same fix: go back to the download page for that quality and reload it. A fresh link is issued every time.

• It expired. A link is good for about ten minutes from the moment it is issued.
• It was already used. Each button works once. Sharing a link, or pressing back and pressing it again, will not start a second download.
• Your connection changed. Links are tied to the connection that asked for them, so switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or turning a VPN on or off, invalidates the link you are holding.

Download managers, resuming and speed

• Take a fresh link for each attempt. A download manager that stores the URL and retries it hours later will always fail, because that link is long gone.
• Managers that split a file into many parallel connections tend to fail for the same reason. A single connection is the reliable setting here.
• Sustained speed is capped per connection, so a very large file takes as long as it takes. Opening it four times does not make it four times faster.
• If the download page offers more than one server, any of them serves the same file — try another if the first one is slow for you.

Playing the file

• Every file is MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio, written so that it starts playing before it has finished downloading.
• That combination plays on a stock Android or iOS player, on Windows and on a smart TV. If an older device refuses a file, VLC or MX Player will play it.
• Dual-audio productions are published as a separate set of files per language rather than one file with two tracks. Pick the language you want in the download table — you do not need a player that can switch tracks.

Still stuck

If a production page itself is broken — a missing poster, the wrong film, a download that fails on every server and every quality — tell us, with the link, through the contact page. If you are a rights holder, use the takedown form instead; it goes to the review queue directly.
