Google Streamer reboots after fast forward with players

When I play a DVD remux MKV with my Google TV Streamer and fast-forward the video, the Google TV Streamer completely shuts off and reboots.

I have a UGREEN Revodok Pro 100W PD hub connected, with the MKV on a SanDisk USB 3.0 drive.

At first, I thought it was because of the power, that it was browning out because the plug that came with it didn't supply enough power for both the Streamer and the hub.
So I bought a 30W power adapter and a 100W USB-C cable, but it still happens.

When I play the file with VLC - HW Decoder and fast-forward with the remote, not the slider, the Streamer reboots.
With SW Decoder, it plays and fast-forwards like it should, but the image isn't great.
Just Player and Next Player also reboot.
Kodi and Nova Player both play fine.

So when playing the MKV normally, every player plays it.
Only when fast-forwarding with the forward button on the remote, and after 5–10 seconds of holding it, the Streamer reboots.

I also tried copying the file to the internal storage of the Streamer, and it's still the same; it reboots.
I also tried different files, and they all have the same result.

Kodi is very heavy for my simple use, and I would like to use Next Player because of its simple navigation.

Does anyone know why this happens?
Is the RAM full and the Streamer reboots?

When did the Dutch Dragon Ball Z on TV switch dubs?

When watching DBZ in my teens on Cartoon Network in The Netherlands, i remember that we had the Ocean dub for the Saiyan and Namek sagas.

Then we switched to the Funimation dub with Freeza and Garlic Junior sagas.

Then we switched back to the Westwood/Ocean dub, and i can remember the Westwood intro but online it states that we had the Westwood/Ocean dub for the remainder of the series.

But my memory tells me that, yes we did have the Westwood dub because i can clearly remember the intro and knew the voices where different again, remembering the old Vegeta voice.

Online it states that it started with episode 108 but is this also true for us in The Netherlands on Cartoon Network?

But i also 100% remember watching the Android saga with the Funimation dub on TV at the time.
Because i clearly remember the robot voice from Android 19.

So did we only get a few episodes from Westwood/Ocean and then before the Android saga we switched back again to Funimation?

It was also run at Cartoon Network and later on Yorin.
I watched up to the Cellgames on Cartoon Network at that time.

Looking for an old Dragon Ball Z Mugen game

I'm hoping to find an old Dragon Ball Z game i used to play.

It was a MUGEN type game but maybe it was a Flash game.
The only thing i remember was it being a 2d game and when the characters did a combo a shadowversion of themselfs appeared behind them, like Vegeta had a kickcombo and a darkblue shadow version appeared behind him using the same moves.

The graphics looked like Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22 but i was a pc game.
Does anyone know what game i'm looking for?

Thanks!

Batman: The Complete Animated Series DVD boxset ISO+MDS

I have a question and i hope someone can/will help me. I own the Batman: The Complete Animated Series DVD boxset from 2008. But unfortunately this set is victim of the WB Discrot issue. I have two discs from Volume 3, disc 3 and disc 4 that don't play and which i would like to replace/rip.

I've paid someone on marketplace to lend me out his DVD's from Volume 3 but this isn't the same size as the one from the complete set. The filesize and timestamps of the files inside are different.

I like the ISO because it has the full information and the MDS for the original layerbreak.

I found vol 3 on archive but that's a iso without .mds and it's the one from de single volume not the complete set.

Does anyone maybe have the same complete set and would/could you share the disc's with me by ripping them with DVD Decrypter?

Thank you so much for your consideration.

I'm trying to rip a DVD to ISO using the the backup function in MakeMKV. But when loading the ISO into MakeMKV to make .mkv files i get the following errors:

As seen the DVD loads completely but i'm curious to why i get the error because the DVD is like new. A Google search results in:

This usually happens due to a dirty or scratched disc, a strange copy-protection scheme, or a read error from your DVD drive. Clean the disc: Wipe the DVD gently with a soft, lint-free cloth from the center outward, then try again. Wait and see: If the rip finishes successfully, the data was recovered or bypassed safely, and your video should play fine.Change drives: If the rip fails or freezes, try using a different DVD or Blu-ray drive (such as an internal PC drive instead of a USB mobile drive). Make a full backup: Instead of direct ripping, try doing a full disc backup first in MakeMKV, then open that backup folder to extract your movie file

I've tried cleaning it and use a different DVD Drive, but i got the same result I have this DVD (Batman & Mr.Freeze: SubZero) multiple times so i tried ripping it with different discs. But with all the discs i get the exact same results at the same offsets.

I've tried a different DVD (The Batman Superman Movie) and got a similar error corrupt or invalid at offset... Used a different DVD and again corrupt or invalid at offset, at the exact same spot.

Now i don't think the discs are all scratched or dirty at the exact same spot, but what could this be? Could it be a strange copy-protection scheme?

Lobo: The Complete Webseries and Gotham Girls: The Complete Webseries

I've uploaded 4K compilation videos of Lobo and Gotham Girls to YouTube for everyone to enjoy.

To make them feel more like animated episodes than flashgames, I edited the original .swf files and removed certain gameplay elements while preserving every story scene. No story content has been cut—only game-specific elements were streamlined to create a more seamless viewing experience.

I hope both longtime fans and newcomers enjoy these restored compilations!

BASE64 Encode/Decode?

Now that some filenames aren't working anymore (WEB-DL, WEBRip, AMZN...)

And maybe more to come...

Maybe the scene can encode the filename with BASE64 so a filename like this:

Scream 7 2026 1080p WEB-DL AAC 5 1 H264-UNiON

would become:

U2NyZWFtIDcgMjAyNiAxMDgwcCBXRUItREwgQUFDIDUgMSBIMjY0LVVOaU9O

The indexer would still show the filename, so we can search but the videofilename would be encoded.

So no files are being blocked by RD or any other and streamingapps can decode the filename and sort it and play it.

A lot of stuff on Usenet was also removed and the scene switched to encoding to prevent removal.
