Categories:
HDBits is dedicated to supplying the best quality High Definition encodes of Movies and TV shows sourced either from Blue-Ray/HD-DVD or HDTV captures.

Statistics:
HDBits is an older tracker which features a medium sized user-base.
http://www.sb-innovation.de/attachment.php?attachmentid=3862
Rules:
There are the same general rules here as most trackers in regards to forum behaviour and such, but the upload rules are quite strict on what can and can't be uploaded. The ratio rules are as follows:
http://www.sb-innovation.de/attachment.php?attachmentid=3867
User Classes:
There are a number of user classes and moving up to the higher ranks will take quite a while as promotion works off downloaded amount rather than uploaded amount like most sites do.
http://www.sb-innovation.de/attachment.php?attachmentid=3863
Bonus System:
HDBits has a bonus system which rewards users for seeding with either upload credit or a custom title.
http://www.sb-innovation.de/attachment.php?attachmentid=3858
Freeleech:
There are a number of freeleech torrents available here, the first episode of any TV series is always freeleech but the rest at discretion of the staff. Worth noting is that all downloads only count 75% of their size similar to ScT. Full image rips of Blue-Ray or HD-DVD sources are only counted at 50% of your downloaded amount so maintaining a healthy ratio isn't to hard. A full site-wide freeleech can happen but it is very rare.
Forums:
The forums here are very easy to navigate and they are quite active. There are always a lot of people who will help you with any problem you have, be it a tracker issue or encoding/playback issues. They have a lot of very experienced encoders who are more than happy to help you if you wish to get into encoding yourself, even the x264 codec developer is active in these forums.

IRC:
Server: irc.p2p-network.net
Channel: #hdbits
Donations:
Donations are accepted via PayPal only and they are rewarded with a donor star and upload credit.
http://www.sb-innovation.de/attachment.php?attachmentid=3860
Invites:
Invites are handed out pretty regularly but earning them requires you to be an active downloader/uploader. Worth noting is that the ratio these invites are handed out on is your actual ratio without any freeleech factored in, so if you download a heap of freeleech or half-leech torrents then your site ratio will be different to your invite ratio. There is no way to see your invite ratio so you'll have to keep track of it yourself.
http://www.sb-innovation.de/attachment.php?attachmentid=3861
actually there was a greasemonkey script for firefox that allowed you to see your "true" ratio - but i don't remember where you could get it :(

Nice Review My Friend !! +1 Rep..
Also i want an invite overhere :biggrin:
Great review!!
Many people say it's the best HD tracker.
Once invites open, I'll be there...
How are user given invites?

i think invites are available to the members, but the doors are closed for new members since a year now??
so the invites or just placebos at this time..
Staff Edit: No invite requests! Read the rules!
AFAIK user get invites but no one but Staff, and maybe VIPs, can use them.
Very hard to get tracker
i would love a day to get invite
Staff and user can use invite when they open them
Staff and user can use invite when they open them
True, but they've been closed for (literally) years.
If you read the thread beforehand you'd know this. You'd also know that this isn't the appropriate place to be asking for invites.

When are accounts auto-pruned?
* Unparked accounts are pruned when 60 days have elapsed since the last recorded activity. Parked accounts are pruned when 1 year has elapsed since the last recorded activity. Please note that torrent traffic does not count as site activity. Also note that we regularly clean out accounts with very low share ratios.
* Upscale accounts are pruned after 4 weeks
* "You MUST make use of your account. If you download very little, your account will be disabled." [1] If you up-/download less than 1 GB per week (approximately), your account is considered to be "inactive". This is an average value; you are not forced to actually up-/download 1 GB every week. (FL download isn't taken into account)
• you are not forced to actually up-/download 1 GB every week. (FL download isn't taken into account) ->
Does it means if we only downloading FL/freeleech 1GB/weeks can be consider as "active" ?
Pay attention to this:
This is an average value; you are not forced to actually up-/download 1 GB every week.
The system probably works like at HD-Bits.ro.
Does it means if we only downloading FL/freeleech 1GB/weeks can be consider as "active" ?
Freeleech data is not counted towards the amount you need to download per week in order to stay as active on the tracker, you are not forced to download 1GB/week means , if you have downloaded 50GB you can stay active on the tracker for 50weeks or 4months, this condition also include visiting the tracker once in a month to save your account getting auto pruned.
Anybody know for sure 100% if the VIPS can invite someone to be part of the tracker
needed to be really sure ???

for me that is not a problem :klatsch_3: :biggrin:
I would start by finding out if hdbits.org has (semi) public irc channel... That would help a lot. Then just idle in a channel for some time (day) , see who are OPs, admins, mods; what are subjects of discussions; try to engage in some, slowly inquire about joining the tracker and so on... Also, try to improve your english.
shadoww, have you inside hdbits.org now?. How is it going?. :biggrin:
Kissing ass and telling how much you hate traders and cheaters is a great way to prove yourself:lol:

Some IRC dont like idling but if they allow it u can get ur info that way
what is their public irc where we can get in?
Jack, here : irc://irc.p2p-network.net/#hdbits.support. Spying calmly for us, jacksbi (you're family now :tongue:).
That's the support channel, which you should join if you're having trouble with your account or accessing the site. It's definitely the wrong place where to even hint at wanting an invite.

then anon,is there a public channel where we can join and talk to the people on hdbits?
I don't know. Do a /list and see what other channels belong to HDBits.
Gah, sorry jack and anon for that. I got it from FST. :smile:
i heard that one of the staff member of hdbits is selling the invites for 150euros
p2p must be free why to sell the invites.
if it true then it is plain ridiculous staff selling invites.
they disabled invites because of selling but now some of the staff members are doing it.
now what they are going to do?

A lot of money, that's for sure:tongue:
Oh and if people pay that much then they are idiots and we shouldn't complain about them.HD is everywhere:top:

A lot of people have "beef" against their staff, be it because of bad experiences (some would be justified by their supposedly buggy anti-cheat scripts catching innocent users), or just because they can't join because of closed invites. So take such statements with a grain of salt.
Personally, I don't even know their staff, but I don't think they're doing so. Perhaps it's a VIP that you heard is selling invites? That'd make a bit more sense.
Dös somebody know when HDBits.org is celebrating something :tongü:
do some nice rips yourself, go to their irc and chances are they'll take you
Everybody loves HDBits.org, but it's not much better than the other HD trackers, really...
do some nice rips yourself, go to their irc and chances are they'll take you
Of course, if you're not into ripping/encoding, you can begin forgetting about it... unless you're a trade and have a good offer. Sometimes it'd appear that all the HDBits staff has done by closing invites is severely increasing their trading and selling value.

It has good selection of HD stuff not available on other trackers. E.g. 720p WEB-DLs of series.

720p WEB-DLs, thats what I heart and thats the reason why it would be nice to sneak peak.
Just curious to find out if they really have more 720ps of series than a combination of
freshon.tv , tvt.com, BTN, bitmetv, bit-hdtv, pretome & hdme has to offer.
Somebody willing to check ?
Blu-ray Disc releases are better, but when there's only DVD, then it's the best we've got. HDBits have more WEB-DLs than those trackers for sure. Most of those trackers upload the stuff from HDBits to their own tracker.

What do you mean by when there is only dvd ? We are talking about "just aired" series right ?
The question is, what am I looking for. 720p HDTV caps or 720p WEB-DL and I definitely go for the WEB-DL.
As you just said, when most the trackers upload the stuff from HDBits to their own, I am cool with that and it means I dont need HDBits to find the content I am looking for. Right?
It would make HDBits something "spezial" if the would have "just aired episodes of ..." in 720p WEB-DL quality you cant get somewhere else.
Maybe they have it earlier than other trackers but thats not a big plus if we are only talking about hours.
As you are a member there gapo, may you please check....hhhmmmm... lets say Cougar Town Season 2 Episode 1-5.
Which Episode is available in 720p WEB-DL?
For instance, Psych seasons aren't out on Blu-ray. They're available on DVDs. However, WEB-DLs are available as well, thus it trumps the DVDs in terms of quality.
If we're talking about "just aired" series, then it's WEB-DL. Otherwise the best quality is from Blu-ray Dics. So when a season's done, you'd want the source to come from a Blu-ray Disc, not WEB-DL.
720p HDTV caps are utter bull at best. The scene are horrible at doing a good job at all. It's the first person to the mill contest, not quality, hence why it is as it is.
I'm not a member, but there was this guy who showed a list of WEB-DLs available on HDBits. I can't say where I got the information from, sorry.
as i see the stats i think the chdbits is much much better than hdbits with content rps hd, full bluray and has more users. i'm a member there and i'm very happy for that. i can seed back very easily . and some full bluray are free or 50% down count
hdbits is popular because of closed invite system . most hard to get in most wanted by people

I don't care about full bluray or HD content because it will take days to download just a bluray movie, i traded my HDBits account for M-V and FTN invites and never looked back..TL and SCC ftw.

no man, ex. i take matrix bluray trilogy in only ~20 hours. and was free. the speeds are best out there and u can seed very very easily. number 1 for hd content for me is chdbits then 2nd hdbits. U say about tl is great (but for scene only)... if u had to look for hd mov all general trackers suck.

My connection used to be 4 mb/s but now it's 2 mb/s meaning that my download speed is 250 kb/s, It will take me 2.5 days to download 40GB :lol:
I had an account on chdbits but was disabled for inactivity and i agree it's one of the best but with my new crappy download speed, Bluray isn't for me besides i don't watch movies too much, maybe once a month or so and for tv shows, i just wait for the end of each season then leech from BTN.
I just read this on FST.
Invites open - 09/01/11
For the next 8 hours a good portion of you (>1 year >200GB download) will be able to use the 2 invites you have been given to invite any friends who've been desperate for an account.
Use them wisely (that means only inviting people you know, please)!

Ha ha :shifty:
Grr. Guess they had to shut down due to your announcement, spammer. For once you should've been in Australia. Then we wouldn't have had this time problem. In other words, we had just 1 hour from your post. Not 8 hours :gcry:
Actually I got offered an invite, but well... stuff happened. :dabs:

But their invites are only for people who can pay at least three-digit amounts in US dollars, Instab. :shifty:

As far as I know they disable for country changes. Not 100% sure though.

Well, Following the general pattern, they give out invites once a year. Last year too they opened invites but got closed because they found out people were trading/selling. So 2012 might be the next chance to get in!
So 2012 might be the next chance to get in!
again, it's still possible to get an account one way or the other
Or you can go to all the other HD trackers around. I'm not saying HDBits is good nor bad as I'm not a member (I don't even watch HD stuff), but they obviously don't want people around, whereas the other sites do and I've heard good things about them. :unsure:

afaik all country changes get reported by the system and if a fishy country is involved the account will most likely be disabled.
you are going to have a hard time getting it reenabled, even with a good story and excellent conversational skills.

So changing countries between the UK and United States is OK, but UK to Egypt for example is not? What a load of crap (from their staff, not you).

Only makes me further wonder if they're worth all that hassle. This must be how Instab feels every time someone says they can't live without What.cd.
Well iam not in hdbits.org & i dont want to be in it.Well IPT serves all my purpose & after TL added HD category theres no point for a user like me who know nothing about HD except the fact that the picture quality is better.Most people saying i need it i would say its all for collectors.
I have seen people trade.First ask for waffles Tl,get to next level & then when u have hdbits.org or something like that they want to trade a seedbox with it.its completely insane.

if you are not a hd lover, specelly if you dont like downloading ful bluray like 40gb each movie then this tracker is not for you and its just like any other tracker, i for example like to download complete bluray releases to enjoy watching it on my big screen.
i was member there but got my acount disabled but i dont think i will kill something to get back there agin ;P
i think CHDBits is the best HD tracker now ( my opinion )

of course
there is no comparison between these 2 trackers
CHDBits is better
of course
there is no comparison between these 2 trackers
CHDBits is better
me too CHDBits is the better
because a few reasons
1: very large content
2: very high speed
3: free leech for a lot of torrents and 50% free leech and it is hard to find torrent not free leech
4: have a lot of members
5: it's very easy to make buffer on it. just if you have seed box you can upload TB very easy.
Guys I don't know about CHDbits being greater than Hdbits.org,
I don't have hdbits but I have CHDbits it's great ofcourse but nothing compared to hdbits
hdbits is extremely special to HD addicts like me,
what makes this tracker special imo is their encoders, yes encoders especially CtrlHD and TrollHD.
if your like me and tend to download everything you watch in 1080 resolution [it's a disease I know] you won't find those stuff on every tracker.
Take TV shows for example:
Weekly TV show episodes, the only place that does 1080i weekly episodes is HDbits, and you will rarely find them anywhere else, they are uploaded to BTN [best TV show tracker] but still they are taken from HDbits.
Some episodes aren't always uploaded [you can always make a request on BTN, and a member from HDbits will upload it to BTN], but still I think you get the point ;)
that's for TV Shows, of course the same goes for everything else,
imo Hdbits is one of the few trackers that live up to it's hype.

it's really good to make a tracker has specialized at HD.
It's good, but too bad we missed the recent opened invite system...

very bad luck.
but after all HDbits banned my country.
It's good, but too bad we missed the recent opened invite system...
Only a few hours, so only 1080i members can invite the ppl they know.
Nearly impossible for any 1 to get an invite via trade.
I guess they did that to prevent any traders/sellers.

anyway, you can invite yourself and keep the invite code in the email, or just sell the account.

Inviting yourself not a bad idea, but I guess no one suspected they would only open for a few hours, like how many members over there even knew about it, I guess some of them were offline at that time,
and when they logged in after a few they discovered they missed open invites, lol, if that happened to me I'd be so furious.
Traders can create dummy GMails and trade that, extending the invites' lifetime by three days. :unsure:
Whats the name of internal groups on hdbits?
Whats the name of internal groups on hdbits?
There are so many of them as far as I know, such as CtrlHD, ESiR, DON etc. I read from somewhere that their new recruitment policy is that you must be an encoding enthusiast!
Sorry for hijacking this thread and thanks everyone for commenting (criticising?) on my point. I perfectly understand that these days you don't need any single particular tracker even like hdbits as you can always find the exact or similar contents from somewhere else. It is safe to say once you have 3-5 mid-level trackers you will have almost everything you want, or even on public trackers if you can wait for a few hours. In my case I do 90% of my stuffs from TL and IPT (I don't cheat there).
Also I quite respect the principles some of you have consistently maintained, especially on buying invites/accounts. But for me "convenience" is also an important issue that is difficult to price. I admit I have bought invites/accounts before and I am not ashamed of it. To me this is not much different from exchanging invites/accounts if you can accept it. Please note I am only expressing my opinion on this topic, and I perfectly understand the rules of this site - I have never purchased anything here, will never do so and will never advocate it! I hope a discussion only is still allowed here.
I am longing for a hdbits invite. I didn't dare to ask here because I know no one would give a hdbits invite to someone whom they don't know. Reading the above posts makes me feel a little tempted to ask one as well: please do me a favour by offering me a hdbits invite if you can trust someone who has about 10 years experience in torrenting (with a good part of it on private trackers), still a virgin in terms of bans, never cheated before coming to this board, and never cheats on any trackers when having the slightest chance to seed back.
@OP, I am sure you know I am only joking and do not really try to compete with you on this. :)

Sure it is, and people are encouraged to discuss these things. Otherwise, what's the point of having a forum.
Its really bad that they have closed invites or opensignups.

:frown: I know many good russian users
Russia and Ukraine added to the country ban list - 2017-12-18
Due to a huge surge in Russian and Ukranian traders, both countries have now been added to the country ban list. Anyone found inviting anyone from said countries will lose their account or at the very least lose their invite privileges and receive a long warning.
Another tracker that's not worth being part of.
There are so many of them as far as I know, such as CtrlHD, ESiR, DON etc. I read from somewhere that their new recruitment policy is that you must be an encoding enthusiast!
And those teams' releases are very often posted to PTP or HDT.

I agree. Considering that PTP and BTN are easier to join, there is no need to work your way up to HDBits.
HDB is having a site wide Free-leech until Friday 12/22/17

Probably PTP will not come back

They've been through downtimes before, but they'll really need to improve their game plan after this one. FTN and Waffles have already shown us the risks of having vital site infrastructure be controlled by exactly one person (whose complete absence is apparently what's causing their current woes), and PTP themselves endured a takeover attempt back in the day.
