Downloading out of copyright movies
Hi my name is Bob. I've commented a few times, but this is my first episode.
I'm using text to speech as suggested by Beeza in episode hpr4167 :: Removing another obstacle to recording an HPR show but using piper
from hpr4172 :: Re: hpr4072 Piper voice synthesis by Archer72.
For this tutorial I suggest how it might be possible to use tor browser to download difficult to find public domain works.
As well as letting you browse privately, it also enables a SOCKS Proxy which other applications can use.
Wikipedia maintains a list of List of films in the public domain in the United States.
I found out about this list after reading Copyright in Zombies, Vampires, Frankenstein and More!.
Once you have ensured that it's perfectly legal do download the movie in your Jurisdiction, then use tor to go to duck duck go video search.
In our hypothetical scenario, say we wanted to download Night of the Living Dead, released in 1968 by Director George A. Romero and came out of copyright in 1968 due to "Missing copyright notice and errors from the distributor." From List of films in the public domain in the United States Night of the Living Dead entered the public domain because the original theatrical distributor, the Walter Reade Organization, neglected to place a copyright indication on the prints. In 1968, United States copyright law required a proper notice for a work to maintain a copyright"
This is why there are so many variations on zombie movies.
In the example ok.ru is the site hosting the movie, and it has a link of https://ok.ru/video/foo_bar
It would be simple enough to just point yt-dlp - A feature-rich command-line audio/video downloader, to the url and download it.
You could also take advantage of the fact that yt-dlp supports a SOCKS proxy.
--proxy URL Use the specified HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS proxy. To enable SOCKS proxy, specify a proper scheme, e.g. socks5://user:pass@127.0.0.1:1080/. Pass in an empty st9ring (--proxy "") for direct connection
So if you were to run yt-dlp --proxy socks5://localhost:9150 https://ok.ru/video/foo_bar
it would download the movie via tor.
I am in no way condoning the downloading of illegal material, and am not suggesting in any way that you do so.
