    Hi guys !
    I wish to know other "Rutracker" acronyms maybe someone can help me ?
    There is : MB, MC, SN, LD

    Do you know these ones ?

    I use to know RM for remastered, LP for "Long Play" aka Vinyl Rip, BD for BluRay, CD for compact disc, but these new ones I don't know,
    Maybe there is a page on Rutracker website or forum which can explain all of the rutracker's acronyms ?

    Please let me know, thanks.

    LP "Long Play" is a long recording, between eight and twelve tracks approximately.
    For such a format we usually talk about an album and normally we use the initials LP to signify that the album is burned on a vinyl record.
    Most of the time, it is a 12” diameter vinyl (its other name: 12"), which spins at 33 rpm.

    EP "Extended Play" is an extended recording.
    Between four and six tracks, again engraved on a vinyl 17 cm in diameter (7") or more commonly 30 cm today.
    Older EPs mostly run at 45 rpm, but today the majority run at 33 rpm.

    It all depends on the length of the recordings.
    The recommended duration per side is 12 minutes maximum for a 33 rpm and 9 minutes maximum for a 45 rpm.

    Dear junh1024, This seem to be the only and earliest place on the internet where it is mentioned that TR24 stands for 24 bit highres audio.
    While it's obvious that "24" would mean that, I am wondering if you know that "TR" stands for?
    Asking because TR24 is used interchangeably with the media name(e.d. CD) while 24 bit is not a media but an quality format. Unless it's an original file format, then it would be WAV, FLAC, mp3, OGG, and none of them is "TR".
    Thank you.

    You're right, nowhere says what TR actually means. I guess it stands for "True" or perhaps "True Resolution".
    Just a veteran nerd/techie half-educated guess.
