Never heard of a "slot light" in 20 years of torrrenting. What is it?

Same, no fucking idea. Is it a visual glitch? A watermark? An IRL object? 🤔

i’m pretty sure he’s referring to those physical lights embedded below/around the projector screen in some theatres that’re sometimes left still on, but very dimmed. i’m not a cam guy but i’d imagine if you do watch cams it’d be kind of annoying the whole entire time to have them on screen.

Lol that's a funny interpretation. I don't have an answer for OP but I know what he's referring to. Slots Lights is an annoying watermark/site on some cam rips of popular movies. Sometimes they're the only ones available for awhile. Somehow they always get a copy out before everyone else. The watermark is seriously annoying from what I can remember. It was either permanently there and larger than the subtitles or flashing all over the screen every few minutes.
