The most recent news entry on the main page that I can see is December 2:

Finally the DNS-worries are over and everything is back to normal! The forum is now at it's normal address: http://forum.doom9.org

Are you sure it's not your ISP's proxies that are cacheing "www.doom9.org" ???
:confused:

Happy New Year. It took me a little longer to get back on the horse than I anticipated, and I have to leave again for 3 weeks shortly, but after that I should be around a lot more.

So let's recap what has happened in 2010 so far, hopefully in chronological order:

First of all, France's three strikes law went into effect - that is, almost: Unless the national privacy watchdog signs off, the party at RIAA/MPAA central cannot start.

DGDecNV build 2000 fixes random access for MPEG-2 program streams and fixes reversed fields in the info dialog.

Then we have the beta test of a new input method for x264 - the new input method allows to open almost any file without AviSynth and can handle variable framerate content without timecode file.

Haven't we hard that being called managed copy before? Just before CES opens its door, the MPAA members have come up with yet another layer of DRM - the Digital Entertainment Content Ecosystem, or DECE, should allows us to play content on any device. That is, as long as it remains wrapped in DRM and each device has to get authorization from the mothership to be played. Now why does that remind me of DIVX? By the way, Disney is not on board - they have their own little DRM party called KeyChest.

BD Rebuilder 0.31.06 now uses B-frames for the high speed option, changes the default CRF values to approximate quality on extras, updates to the latest build of x264 and fixes some bugs.

DivX hasn't been on top of things for quite a bit now - the advent of cheap, AVC capable hardware came before they were ready for it. Now they're trying to get back on top with DivX TV.

Finally, plans for 3D Blu-ray have already been announced but here's the logo for it, and after adding support for BD-Live, online video sources, LG is also adding harddisks to their latest Blu-ray player lineup. Will players soon dub as a small NAS?

P.P.S.: Take a look at:

The last message I see is also for Dec 2, 2009. What gives? Is it our proxies that are doing the cacheing? If so how do you "flush" them.

I'm connected though a Shaw internet connection. It seems to default to server2.doom9.org and loads old news entries. (just now it stopped working altogether). I tried a machine connected through Telus and it defaulted to server4.doom9.org which loaded the "Happy New Year" entry. I then visited server2.doom9.org on the Telus computer and it also displayed "The requested URL /right.html was not found on this server.".

Is there a problem with server2.doom9.org?

Also, doom9.cn doesn't load anything (the chinese flag) and doom9.hu goes to some sort of film database that I'm fairly confident is not related to doom9.org

Well I figured out how to clear out my cache and as soon as I did the current doom9 loaded with the "Happy New Year" entry. To clear my cache (I use Firefox) I went to: Tools> Options> Advanced, pressed the "Clear Now" tab for offline storage (cache) and voila...

Hmm.. it seems some servers have gone out of synch. Thanks for reporting it.

I use FireFox and the doom9 home page is still 12/2 as the OP. I thought this was normal!? There's a "Happy New Year" entry posted? Clearing my cache has not helped.

I have used Chrome and Firefox and Avant/IE and don't seem to have much luck getting at latest doom9 these days. Must have something to do with my ISP's DNS servers maybe (satellite service, stuck with their DNS).

P.S. the server4.doom9.org worked, shows Jan 6 Happy New Year.

Unfortunately the disk on one server is full - I sent the admin an email but usually those things don't move forward over the week-end.

The last entry i can see is from jan.17 2010. I am trying to access the site from madrid, spain, also tried to use anonymizer and proxys to prevent provider filtering, but to no avail.

Is the main doom9.org page cached? I've noticed that it takes months for it to update and when it does it is updated with several months of news entries.

$ nslookup doom9.org
Server: 64.59.135.133
Address: 64.59.135.133#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: doom9.org
Address: 0.0.0.0

I checked the results of doom9.org at intodns.com (http://www.intodns.com/doom9.org) and according to it the nameserver 207.234.185.99 is not responding.

The most recent news entry on the main page that I can see is December 2:

The last post for me is on the 17th January 2010 below:

Date News
1/17 Just popping back up for a minute - it's been a very busy week. Unlike in the past they really made us work this time round..

It hasn't been a good week for big content: their first trial against a BitTorrent site tracker (OiNK) in the UK resulted in a not guilty verdict, the French authority in charge of disconnecting people from the Internet for copyright infringement has been found guilty of copyright infringement themselves and the online music price fixing case against the RIAA label has been reinstated.

And, after all the crying about losing money to piracy, guess what happened - revenue from movie theaters is up 10% in 2009 over 2008 despite the financial crisis. So, dare I ask if we really need to have three strikes, laws against camcording, etc. if people still spend their hard earned dollar on movie tickets despite the latest CAM release never being too far away?

Remember the HD-DVD/DVD combo discs? Well, they're back, almost... instead of the now defunct HD-DVD side they simply sport a Blu-ray side.

SMPlayer 0.6.8.3430 bundles the latest SVN release of SMPlayer with the latest multithreaded build of mplayer.

ProgDVB 6.31.1 uses the NIT information in the channel scanner.
