Never heard of a "slot light" in 20 years of torrrenting. What is it?
Same, no fucking idea. Is it a visual glitch? A watermark? An IRL object? 🤔
i’m pretty sure he’s referring to those physical lights embedded below/around the projector screen in some theatres that’re sometimes left still on, but very dimmed. i’m not a cam guy but i’d imagine if you do watch cams it’d be kind of annoying the whole entire time to have them on screen.
I mean, watching any kind of cam is annoying, so their tolerance should be pretty high.
Lol that's a funny interpretation. I don't have an answer for OP but I know what he's referring to. Slots Lights is an annoying watermark/site on some cam rips of popular movies. Sometimes they're the only ones available for awhile. Somehow they always get a copy out before everyone else. The watermark is seriously annoying from what I can remember. It was either permanently there and larger than the subtitles or flashing all over the screen every few minutes.
yeah i mean idk i have no idea lmao. i just googled slot light and saw lights that looked vaguely similar to some local theatres i’ve seen around my country
Oh, yeah, makes sense. I've never watched mor than 5min of any cam ever, if I really wanted to see it for free I would just sneak in to the theater. 🤡
its an online casino ad
Because it is a CAM copy made with a camera pointed at a screen. This will be replaced by a HD copy when one becomes available. Then you can watch it streamed in high def quality and without the annoying slot lights on the screen. Be sure to have Ublock Origin extension running to prevent pop-ups and porn ads.
I've just recently ran into a new company advertising besides slot lights and it made the movie unwatchable. Slot lights will usually throw in 2-3 ad breaks which really annoy me because the audio levels are always pumped way up and it breaks the immersion in the narrative, followed with scattered smaller banner ads littered throughout the run time.
This new company slapped a huge banner ad that takes up 1/3 of the screen that's present during the entire run time. Just insane when it comes to marketing because I can't even remember the company and made me switch off. VPN + torrent will be a blessing when I can find better versions and get off these streaming sites that just carry them.
