Standard warez Wikipedia. Standards in the warez scene are defined by groups of people who have been involved in its activities for several years and have established connections to large groups. These people form a committee, which creates drafts for approval of the large groups. Outside the warez scene, often referred to as p. In warez distribution, all releases must follow these predefined standards to become accepted material. The standards committee usually cycles several drafts and finally decides which is best suited for the purpose, and then releases the draft for approval. Once the draft has been e signed by several bigger groups, it becomes ratified and accepted as the current standard. There are separate standards for each category of releases. All groups are expected to know and follow the standards. What is definededitThere are rules of naming and organizing files, rules that dictate how a file must be packaged and an nfo file, that contains required information, must be added with the content. The first part of a standards document usually defines the format properties for the material, like codec, bitrate, resolution, file type and file size.

When choosing file size, the limiting factor is the size of the media to be used such as 7. MB for CD R. The standards are designed such that a certain amount of content will fit on each piece of media, with the best possible quality in terms of size. If more discs are required for sufficient quality, the standard will define the circumstances where it is acceptable to expand to a second or third disc. Newer video standards moved away from the size constraints and replaced them with a quality based alternative such as the use of CRF. New codecs are usually tested annually to check if any offer any conclusive enhancement in quality or compression time. In general, quality is not sacrificed for speed, and the standards will usually opt for the highest quality possible, even if this takes much longer. For example, releases using the Xvid encoder must use the two pass encoding method, which takes twice as long as a single pass, but achieves much higher quality similarly, DVD R releases that must be re encoded often use 6 or 8 passes to get the best quality. When choosing the file format, platform compatibility is important. Formats are chosen such that they can be used on any major platform with little hassle. Some formats such as Clone. CD can only be used on Windows computers, and these formats are generally not chosen for use in the standards.

Allowed package formats today are limited to RAR and ZIP, of which the latter is used only in 0 day releases. The sizes of the archives within the distributed file vary from the traditional 3 floppy disk 1. MB or extra high density disk 2. MB to 5 MB, 1. 5 MB typical for CD images or 2. MB typical for CD images of console releases, 5. MB files typical for DVD images, and 1. MB for dual layer DVD images. These measurements are not equivalent to traditional measurement of file size which is 1. KB to a MB, 1. 02. MB to a GB in a typical DVD release, each RAR file is exactly 5. In binary prefix thats 5.

This allowed for 1. For example, a DVD R image 4. Gi. B, split into 1. MB. The new RAR naming format, name. MB for historical reasons and because the old RAR naming format is still being widely used. Different compression levels are used for each type of material being distributed. The reason for this is that some material compresses much better than others. Movies and MP3 files are already compressed with near maximum capacity. Repacking them would just create larger files and increase decompression time. Ripped movies are still packaged due to the large file size, but compression is disallowed and the RAR format is used only as a container. Because of this, modern playback software can easily play a release directly from the packaged files,8 and even stream it as the release is downloaded if the network is fast enough. MP3 and music video releases are an exception in that they are not packaged into a single archive like almost all other sections. These releases have content that is not further compressible without loss of quality, but also have small enough files that they can be transferred reliably without breaking them up. Since these releases rarely have large numbers of files, leaving them unpackaged is more convenient and allows for easier scripting. For example, scripts can read ID3 information from MP3s and sort releases based on those contents. Rules for naming files and folders are an important part of the standards. Correctly named folders make it easier to maintain clean archives and unique filenames allow dupecheck to work properly. Theres a defined character set which can be used in naming of the folders. The selected character set is chosen to minimize problems due to the many platforms a release may encounter during its distribution. Since FTP servers, operating systems or file systems may not allow special characters in file or directory names, only a small set of characters is allowed. Substitutions are made where special characters would normally be used e. This can happen automatically by site scripts. As a note, spaces are explicitly disallowed in current standards and are substituted with underscores or full stops. The ubiquitous character set includes the upper and lower case English alphabet, numerals, and several basic punctuation marks. It is outlined below. ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ. A typical example of the folder name of a movie release would be. Title. Of. The. Movie. YEAR. Source. Codec GROUPThe Xvid scene does not allow the use of parenthesesruleset 3 and the BDR scene also doesnt allow the use of an underscore,ruleset 4 while those are common with music releases. Bs En Iso 3834. Dots arent used in the required naming scheme for music videos. Square brackets arent defined in any ruleset, however they are used by p. The best known example is a. XXo. Standards documents have often a date defined when the rules take effect. The warez scene typically follows the UTC time standard. There is no formal record documenting correct times for all releases. Depending on geographical location and the timing of releases, release sites receive software releases at slightly different times. Release times in any single source may vary by as much as two weeks. ConsequenceseditIf a group violates a standard, the release will be nuked. Another group will often proper the release. This proper usually requires a sample or a detailed explanation to prove the flaw in the material, unless the flaw was clear enough for the release to be nuked at releasing time. Flaws that arent immediately visible can be found during testing of the material, such as a broken crack or a bad serial. These sanctions are social in nature and can be initiated by anyone within the community. Video standardseditThere are several standards to release movies, TV show episodes and other video material to the scene.
