Hello anons, tell us how you handle your porn
/gif/ became my #1 board, i see repeating webms all over the place, sometimes its being reposted as "15617212635.webm" filenames, so its hard to find duplicates on the computer.
given that porn clips we share here are much larger then your typical jpeg or gif, i thought to suggest this:
>How to save 4chan files while preserving Filenames, either batch download or single file, without hassle
>STEP 0
first, 4chan changes long names to blablabla(...).webm, so make a bookmark with this javascript: (quite simple so any tech savvy anon can vouch for this code)
bookmark name suggestion=
4ch-short
address=
javascript:(function(){var%20j,k,x;for(k=0;x=document.getElementsByClassName("fileText")[k];k++){j=x.getElementsByTagName("a")[0];if(j.title.length>j.innerText.length)j.innerText=j.title;}})();
if you use PaleMoon or Firefox, install the DownThemAll Extensions (is there a chrome equivalent?)
then do pic related, described next
>STEP 1
click tab LINKS
>STEP 2
for Quick Filter, type: 4cdn
>STEP 3
in Renaming Mask put: *flattext*
(step 4, select a saving destination offcourse)
that's it!
basc-archiver + duplicate finder
someone bump so others can see
>how to save SINGLE files preserving filenames
after unshortening filenames with the bookmarklet
1- right click on the FILENAME (not the thumbnail),
2- click the DownThemAll arrow in green&yellow "save with DtA"
(notice how a long description appears)
3- on the DTA popup, set a destination, and set Mask to: *flattext*
4- click START or ADD TO QUEUE
now DTA will remember your Destination and Mask until you restart the browser or manually use the popup again,
now you can rightclick any filename you desire to save and hit the DTA icon in Red&Yellow to download it hassle free!
its even easier this way than the usual way where you have to click OK on the Saveto popup

>basc-archiver
python script, would it be as easy for semi illiterate anons as just installing an extension?
im checking it out
https://github.com/bibanon/BASC-Archiver/releases
this one right?
Is that portuguese?
>>8555082
Yes, it is
>>8554950
holy shit thie BASC Archiver is awesome
no install required, just unzip then
thread-archiver.exe >>8554888 --runonce
too bad there isnt an option to already save with real uploaded filenames intead of 1423453452
but since it creates by default the HTML, you can simply open the local html file and run DTA on it, and just delete the archive..
OR open the html archive on any browser profile with settings changed to directly open webm media on your video player
(i have this problem, my weak CPU celeron overheats withing seconds of watching highres webms via browser, but not via VLC for instance)
>>8555082
yes
>>8555121
ARGH i meant:
thread-archiver.exe http://boards.4chXXX.org/gif/thread/8554888 --runonce
cant figure out hot to set a destination folder though: (windows)
thread-archiver.exe http://boards.4chXXX.org/gif/thread/8554888 --runonce --path="E:\pron\gif-threads\"
I made my own scraper for 4chan. Could easily add duplicate checking by calculating checksums, thanks for making me think of that btw.
I use an actual web spider. All of this is unnecessary.
Or maybe you could be more concerned about things other than organizing your porn collection...
