Is there any way of gleaning some more info out of NZBGet about failed downloads? I was looking through the history and saw 2 releases it claims failed, but when I go to the folder structure, there's a folder called '_unpack_' with the extracted file in it and all the RARs deleted. Loading it in VLC and scrubbing the timeline doesn't seem to reveal any problems, so I'm curious as to why it thinks it failed.

e: found all the source files in the intermediate folder, all passed PAR and SFV checks. Odd.

Astraweb + supernews gets me at 25mb/sec

My average speed appears to be the same as before I swapped distro, I guess watching the pot boil showed me things I just ignored before. I don't get 25mb/s solely because of my internet plan. But to be fair I don't really need it that fast.

Sorry, guy.
Sorry I know I mentioned this months ago but I don't think I ever got an answer.

I'm MANY, MANY versions behind on NZBDrone (Sonarr) and when I go to find instructions google searching "update NZBDrone" I get to places like this:

http://www.htpcguides.com/install-nzbdrone-osx/

Which are actually very detailed and helpful. I feel like I could follow this easily enough, with one problem. It sounds an awful lot like it is instructions for a first time installation, complete with how to make it start at boot up, etc.


Can anyone with knowledge of updating NZBDrone on Mac help me figure out how to update? What step do I start on, where do I stop? Can I do this without having to redo all the setup/config stuff? (I would assume so?)

Thanks :)

Have you tried to update it from inside nzbdrone? System tab, there is a sub-tab called updates, you should be able to get new updates from there. Havent tried it on mac, but it works on windows and linux.

I'll check again but last time I clicked that link it took me to an install page. Same story, it's instructions for a fresh install.

[edit] I just checked again, yeah it literally just points me here:

https://github.com/Sonarr/Sonarr/wiki/Installation

Which has me downloading something, extracting it manually (no problem yet) then doing a bunch of terminal commands and I'm just not sure how much of that is necessary as an update versus an install. I also don't wanna undo my existing NZBDrone setup or have to start over.

Yeahhh, so I followed the link that the install link for NZBDrone pointed to, and sure enough I'm on a current version of SONARR but all my shows are gone, my indexers are gone, I have to set that all up again. Basically exactly what I was afraid of.

Lame.

Yeah, no, it wasn't so bad. But there was also adding my indexer poo poo (which I had to go search my gmail for because I couldn't remember what I had... quality profiles, etc...)

I'm basically all set now though, and I see the newer versions of SONARR have a "Backup" option. Nice.

[edit] But for them to to make it clear you're starting from scratch when you followed an "Update" link... is just a little lame.

If it functions in OSX, go into the System settings and click on the backup tab and save the most recent backup, then use it to restore your settings next time.

I haven't yet, but plan to at some point because private TV torrent sites are slaying the scene/usenet in terms of availability and quality these days. It's just a bit more involved, but at least there's no DMCAs.

Works just fine, took a little tinkering but no complaints. It even lists the seeds/leeches in the manual search and the automatic search won't grab something with 0 seeds. I disabled the Usenet stuff inside of Sonarr for a week to test how things went and no issues at all. This might save me the $9 a month with Supernews or whatever. You're kinda dependent on their supported sites though, I'm looking into how to add my own private ones.

Is extremeseed still recommended for this? Could you just set up a digital ocean droplet of the trackers were private enough?

No, everything was created automagically. Only thing I had issues with in terms of setup of everything after upgrading to 5.0 actually was ruTorrent needing some chmoding of /volume1/web. Did you have any issues with the setup wizard that you step through during the install?

NewsGroupDirect is my primary provider, I have an Astraweb block for fills.

I'd like to add another big (~1TB) non-expiring block for fills, for a similar-ish price ($30-50), on another host (not Highwinds/HW reseller). Any options I should be looking at? Blocknews is pretty expensive.

I don't see any users outside of my created ones. Only thing I changed in the wizard that loaded was where the download folder is because I couldn't make it in Root. I uninstalled and reinstalled with the folder created but got the same error.

Turn off the monitored state by clicking the ribbon to the left of the show, season or specific episode. Filled in means it's monitoring, empty outline means it isn't.

[edit] The wording on the Monitored (in show settings) tab is really funky. If I turn it off for a show, it sounds like it wouldn't even look for new upcoming episodes...

(yes I know I could go through every season and unmonitor... but that is a little tedious. (will do it if I must...))

If you go into settings you can set quality profiles. So it stops downloading when it reaches the quality cut off.
