I've definitely had issues where releases are out and Radarr hasn't grabbed them (it's always been a bit more finicky than Sonarr as it's the spinoff, but I find it generally reliable these days except a few irks like it sometimes ignores my banned word list, and I still haven't quite worked out how to whitelist .HC. releases), but nothing too badly recently. Usually by the time I've spotted something I want is there, it's grabbed and in Plex waiting for me. If you've changed lots of settings from the defaults, you're probably doing it wrong unless you have a very specific use case that requires them. It's pretty good out the box. I think the only thing I added in are some tags for specific releases, and the Recycling folder (can't remember if this is on by default, it's a bit of a pain if your stuff spans multiple drives mind). When somethings been missed and you go to the Search function for it, does it had a red "!" icon saying why it's ignored the release you want, and if so what does the mouse hover usually say?

Usenet.farm is 25% off throughout this weekend. It’s €15/500GB for their block accounts (before discount) and I quite like them. Plus it’s a lot cheaper than blocknews from the OP. Email says discount should be automatically applied.

The issue with my sonarr install not grabbing stuff was due to an issue with the mono installation. I updated mono and it's working as intended.

I randomly tried dognzb 2 days ago and the registrations were open (I think they were closed before?). My account says trial and number of days. Maybe it's a stupid question but do the trial accounts get converted to some permanent but limited account or are they just closed if you don't sign up before the trial period is over?

They give you 30 days after the trial ends where you can't use the site but you can upgrade trial to member. If you don't buy membership they delete the trial account 30 days after the trial expiration day. It's hard to find the correct info about how their stuff works but they do have a support forum: https://dognzb.cr/board/index.php?/topic/4128-trial-to-member/ I've been on a lite account since they reneged on lifetime memberships but it's always best to diversify on nzb sites anyway. The four or five I'm using now seem to keep things moving.

I was looking for the details about the trial membership, read the FAQ and search the forum a bit but didn't find anything. I've been using DrunkenSlug and Usenet Crawler but the latter is often down. I'm looking for some decent indexers but they aren't that easy to come by IMO. dobnzb has everything neatly sorted and labeled, at least.

Hell renewing the account is a bitch (was, maybe they improved it now) so make me jump through hoops to pay but at the same time I'll pay if you make it easier on me. For now, what the hell, I'll take it.

I don't know if any of them are open, but thanks to watching this thread I've picked up accounts for nzb.su, dog, nzb.cat, nzbnoob.com, over the years, and I've still got spotweb on a VM that somehow still works. It's advantageous to keep this thread bookmarked. Also that $3/mo plan for the game of thrones promo from newsdemon has been good. I still get emails from supernews offering me 5.99 for the first month and 11.99/mo afterwards. I don't think they care how expensive they are. My old plan with them was 9.99 and I was always looking for something cheaper.

I'll keep that in mind, thanks! I signed up for dog (only for a year in case they decide to shut down in the meantime or something) and a kind goon sent me some more tips in a PM so I'm all set for now. Setting up everything was a bit of a pain in the rear end but even on my relatively slow internet usenet has been a crazy QoL improvement for me so it was worth it in the end. e: typo lordfrikk fucked around with this message at 06:18 on Sep 7, 2018 |

A recent update of something or other broke nzbhydra for me on Centos 7 so figured I'd take the opportunity to install hydra2 Hell of a lot easier than getting 1 up and running which required an altinstall of python 2.73, just a simple yum install of the java jre and it ran straight out the box (well, out the zip) Loads quicker than 1, I'm impressed

ClassH posted:2 has been nothing but good for me so far also. Until about a month ago it didn't support Java >8, which made it a bit of a headache on newer distros like Ubuntu 18.04 since it uses its own launcher binary rather than a script I could easily point at the old version. Beyond that, while I still dislike Java in the first place and wish it had stayed Python I can also say 2 has been solid.

I don't really like using docker, I'd rather know exactly how poo poo runs instead of a black box I have to rely on someone else to maintain I know it's easy, but I'd much rather learn something every time I get a new service up and running

A container isn't a black box. Just look at the Dockerfile and it's like looking at the step by step instructions on how to install it.

You can build your own container and maintain it yourself.

I understand. Docker is perfect for learning how to do things like this and for avoiding getting orphaned by depending on someone else to maintain your service. Even if you use someone elses container it's really simple to just keep maintaining it yourself if the maintainer stops maintaining it. The whole container is exactly described by the Dockerfile which isn't some secret binary blob...its just a text file that you have access to, so once you understand Docker you can just keep doing maintaining whatever it is.

I have SAB download stuff to a temp dir for Sonarr, and let Sonarr handle the sorting and renaming that happens when the files get moved to the main folder. I just noticed I have a bunch of stuff in that temp folder that doesn't seem to be getting processed. I can go to the Wanted page and do a manual import, but it only seems to work if I go to each folder individually, it won't scan more than one folder deep. Do I just need to move all the files out of the sub directories to get this to work?

For Headphones, I have a nice set up where it will download the files to a directory that is automatically pushed to my Google music. So my own little Spotify/Apple Music/etc. with being able to get music on my phone relatively easily. Only catch is, I'm only able to get it going when I'm at home. Has anyone here set up a good solution for being able to access Headphones on your iOS device? I am sure I could note my IP address and push that port outward, but was hoping for a more elegant/secure solution. What suggestions do you have or am I being a dolt and the port forwarding is the right approach? Thanks!

It's a lot more secure than port forwarding Headphones directly to the unwashed masses.

Is there a way to do that to keep the VPN only on that (or other selected) ports? Every VPN I've used in the past hoses things up for Netflix and other usage within the home. e: I have a free Ghostpath login from Newsgroupdirect.

No what we mean is you run the VPN server yourself. The only traffic going through it will be your phone's connecting back home. Any Netflix etc. on your home computers will be able to access the internet just like usual.

Yeah essentially- they’ll be able to see that you are connected to a VPN at <address> but won’t be able to see where the connections go from there, and the packets will be encrypted.
