Ahoy new mateys!

Just thought I’d repost a couple of little bash scripts I use to download and watch series.

notflix

This one searches for torrents, then live mounts the first result, e.g. :

./notflix.sh nina paley sita

That command should play Sita Sings the Blues, by Nina Paley.

Requirements: vlc or mpv, and either btfs or peerflix.

torrench

This one searches for a torrent, gives you the top few results, and starts torrenting what you select using transmission-cli.

Requirements: transmission-cli

Also, if you’re on Debian et al. you’ll have to change where the script says systemctl start transmission to systemctl start transmission-daemon.
