Upgrading video quality for non-English content? (lemmy.today)

I find myself downloading a lot of movies that are dubbed in latino Spanish. I've checked fmhy torrents, but unfortunately, there just isn't a lot of latino Spanish content available on torrents.

(Yes, there is a lot of Spanish Spanish content... but... meehhh...)

However, I have had better luck with fmhy streaming. It's not the best quality, 720p or 1080p if I'm lucky. But it's better than nothing.

I was recently wondering, how does dubbing actually work? Is there a video difference between English and Spanish movies? Or is there just literally an audio track being swapped out?

Could I take an audio track from a 720p stream and add it to a 4K torrented movie file and expect the audio and video to line up?

Ah, interesting. Are you streaming or torrenting? I might have to start downloading more anime if it's more plentiful in español latino.

That was like a decade ago when I searched for dubbed anime, sadly. Now I usually just search subbed anime. The best way is to familiarise with groups and to rip (torrent) only their releases either via Toshi or nyasi. Iirc the one I follow, EraiScans, rips crunchy roll anime which has both Spanish and Latino Spanish subs, if that works for you.
