ClassH posted:Has anyone migrated to the new NZB Hydra? I am still running the older version but thought about switching since it will no longer be updated. I had a hell of a time getting Hydra to play nicely with my indexer and nzbget, so, I gave up and went to sonarr instead. I couldn't be happier, after some basic permissions tinkering with sonarr and nzbget, sonarr finds releases on my indexer, sends nzbs to nzbget which then unpacks and cleans it all up and sonarr then moves the files into my tv directory for Plex and then updates my plex library for me automatically. Also, I put sonarr and nzbget in the same jail to further simplify that process. derk fucked around with this message at 18:44 on Feb 7, 2018 |

Basically, I didn't like hydra. I really only needed to find TV shows, so sonarr worked. I only have 1 indexer. I couldnt get hydra to work properly and gave up. I also tried sabnzbd before nzbget and preferred nzbget, more so of more familiarity with it than sab.

Ok, what are you running plex on for the server? What is your client setup? Is the client hard wired or wireless? is it local or remote?

wireless clients are more than likely your problem. You can play with the client side buffering to get it to not stutter, but that is depending on what wireless you are using, 2.4 Ghz or 5Ghz. 2.4 will not keep up without proper buffering on the client side as where 5Ghz can if you are close enough to pick up the 5Ghz signal. VC-1 is high bitrate which requires high bandwidth so wireless is not that great of an option.

right with the right wireless bandwidth it can be done, N and AC can handle it.

I just paid my giganews sub the other day it is on auto pay so i'll let it run this month and use both for now and then cancel giganews, thanks for the links guys! can't wait to get home and setup my NAS/seedbox at home with this new newsgroup account!

Volguus posted:Huh? I don't quite follow that math. What i see there is $20/500GB block. $10/month for unlimited. So, the only way the block is worth it is if I download less than 250GB per month. To make it worth I would need to buy that 500GB block less than every 2 months. It's even worse if you look at the yearly plan ($90/year) but even so, 250GB per month is nothing. I am on the same BUT, I got in at $40/year

EL BROMANCE posted:Yeah, nobody to my knowledge has ever been busted for solely downloading from usenet. I once got a DMCA notice from downloading from usenet many years ago, and it was from using a NON-SSL connection. 99% of my downloads these days come from usenet with a SSL connection, not 1 single notice.

GutBomb posted:I think it's likely that you're mis-remembering some things. Those notices come after someone informs your ISP that a specific IP address downloaded a specific thing at a specific time, then the ISP sends you the notice after they correlate your IP, time and request with your user account. With usenet the only way that the reporter can know that your IP address was associated with a download would be if they had access to the usenet server's log files and that seems really unlikely and something SSL would not prevent since your request would still be logged with your IP. With torrents your IP goes into the pool and is publicaly available to anyone else connected to that swarm, but with usenet nothing is shared to the rest of the public. It's highly likely your notice was about a torrent download and not usenet and you're just mistaken. you're probably right, this was many many many years ago.

uhhhhahhhhohahhh posted:It's supposed to be the same quality as x264 at half the file size, but I don't know if that's actually true yet. I remember there were some problems with compression artefacts and blocking a while ago I've had it excluded for years because I'm still running a Pi 2 with Kodi and can't play them anyway. at true half size it has some issues that i have seen. but you bump it up a little bit and it looks identical to x264 at a pretty big saving in file size. Plus the HDR. it has come a long way, looks great.

Thermopyle posted:Yeah, this is the main reason I get remuxes. A well done re-encode is mostly indistinguishable from the source BR, but there's no way to tell radarr/sonarr "only download well done reencodes". if you know which groups do good encodes you could set it to get ones from said groups using the tags feature. food for thought.

Henrik Zetterberg posted:Well, it chokes transcoding 4K content down to 1080P for the smaller TV. Both TVs are running Apple TV / Plex on wireless, both have full signals. yea, transcoding 4k files is going to choke just about anything. don't offer the 4K movies to non 4K devices that can direct play them. Like i have a separate library for 4K movies, and only certain users have access to that library that i have set up their clients to play those files directly so it does NOT transcode them.

Henrik Zetterberg posted:Hmm, interesting idea. Will it also choke modern processors as well, even with Plex hardware transcoding? really not a pain at all. have you ever used a .plexignore file before? these files are essential from keeping your 4K movies from showing up in Plex libraries not meant for 4K capable users/clients. Especially if your 4K folder is within your main movie folder such as mine.

Irritated Goat posted:I started working on this but my Pi 3 just lags horribly on running the suite minus Plex. I’m hesitant to open up a port to my PC for it unless I make it local network only which kinda defeats the purpose of Ombi for the most part. I tried the ombi thing over the weekend. great, absolute great concept. I didn't like it so much as getting it to work properly and just ran out of patience to get it working from outside my network and not entirely sure how i would go about that anyways? need some better instructions, also forgot my rutorrent was on port 5000 which botched things for awhile. Ended up just getting rid of Ombi for the time being. I will keep an eye on the project, once it matures more i will give it another try.

I am gonna need a new indexer. what is the good ones now? NGD is nice and cheap i have it $40 a year auto renew unlimited. edit: i signed up for ninja, instant success and cheaper than NGD!!! great steal!!! i will keep both, ninja is the backup, good for those backfills derk fucked around with this message at 02:58 on May 29, 2020 |
