I'm far from knowledgable about this. My understanding is that docker is like a lightweight vm. You can create "containers" that describe what services you want and how they are configured and then you can give other people that container and they can install it on their system without much hassle. It is 'guaranteed' to work as they say without having to mess around with configuration. Plug and play as long as whoever setup the container initially did their job well. Since it is a very light weight vm in essence, uninstalling the container is pretty simple.

https://www.docker.com/what-docker

Anyways, what I'm suggesting is for someone to create a docker container that has all of nzbget, sonarr, mylar, couch potato, newznab, etc. configured in it. Ready to go. Then all you have to do is install the container on your linux and your done. No loving around.

I'm using one from github from a year ago but each app is its own container. The repo name was just Dockerfiles so maybe google that with couch potato? Mine is transmission with PIA, couch, sick rage, sabnzbd, Mylar, headphones, and I think one other. They share a done getting the content data container, and a link to the NAS

I'm encountering a rather weird problem at the moment. I just flattened my server and set it up once again since the default mount point OVH had sucked. Sabnzbd downloads files successfully and unpacks them properly. Sonarr seems to be getting stuck in some kind of loop. It detects the file, and begins moving it to the proper show folder and I watch it tick upward until 99% then it disappears. Only for the process to repeat itself. It's mounted via NFS and I seem to have no problem rsyncing stuff back and forth.
code:
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path is denied.
  at System.IO.File.Move (System.String sourceFileName, System.String destFileName) <0x410dbbe0 + 0x0030f> in <filename unknown>:0

Thats the error it's kicking out.

Looks like the uid the sonarr process is running under doesn't have write permissions to delete the source file.

Is it worth switching to Sonarr if I already have Sickbeard set up the way I like it?

I recently did this and can say "yes". Though I didn't try out medusa. I sperged a bit and redid almost my entire setup that was already docker containers. Added jackett and hydra. Dropped cp sick and sabnzbd for radarr sonarr and nzbget. Picked up lazylibrarian again now that there's a fork with calibre support. Even got 2 new 1tb block accounts. Things so much smoother.

I decided to check my Hydra for the first time in a while, and here are my stats:

NZBGeek and PFMonkey are the best, as I'd suspected, though NZBCat has a notable advantage on response time. DogNZB just sucks.

I wish there was some way to migrate Usenet Megasearch stats into NZBHydra (if megasearch even kept stats?). I used that for years before Hydra rolled around.

Look again, the pie chart is how many times an indexer actually served the NZB for you. PFMonkey is the biggest but #2 is Dog not Geek. I checked my stats and I'm 60 Dog, 30 geek, 10 everything else. But that's just what my material is. I may look at PFMonkey though. Hell I fully forgot I had dog, I thought that I was mostly just geek.

Has anyone figured out a way to use lists in Radarr to download bunches of older movies by category? Say I wanted to get 100 action movies that were most popular in the 1990s....is this possible?

I figured out how to use Trakt lists to get recent films, but can't figure out a configuration that gets older movies.

Also finally setup NZBHydra and it was totally worth it just for the indexer stats

I have Radarr signed up for some IMDb lists like �Every Marvel movie� �AFI Top 100 movies� etc... Just find one for top 100 action movies of the 1990s or something.

One huge plus for docker (to me) is that once you get your system set up with well updated containers (linuxserver.io for instance.) then any kind of updates just becomes
docker-compose pull --parallel
docker-compose up -d

And every part of your system is on the latest.

Just because it's easier to get out of a container than a VM does not mean running in a container is on an equal security footing as the same software running directly on your server.

That�s why you run a container in an lxc on a vm! Errr or something (I run my containers on an lxc so if docker fucks up somewhere I can just lxc stop it.). But that�s not for this thread.

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)

No, the downloader (SAB, nzbget, etc.) downloads to a general directory, then the library manager (Sonarr, Radarr, etc.) which is monitoring the downloader sees that the download is complete, grabs the file out of that generic directory, and sorts/renames it in to the final location.

In my setup for example my downloader (currently nzbget) saves to /mnt/media/Unsorted/<category>/<post title>/

Sonarr and Radarr then take the files from there and put them in /mnt/media/Videos/TV Shows/<name>/ or /mnt/media/Videos/Movies/<name>/ as appropriate.

Drone folder is a legacy feature from before the library manager had full integration with the downloaders, you'd point it at your "Unsorted" folder and it'd check the folder for new content every X minutes. It's only there to support upgrades from old installs and stubborn people who insist on using random-rear end downloaders. Don't use this anymore.

I really should figure out why I have one set up still. I'm using Deluge and NZBGet so I shouldn't need one but I do have it set anyway.

I cannot understand what's the problem of Sonarr about that (and whether there is a setting to tell it to just get over itself). Show X , season 10, episode 11 has been downloaded by the download manager. Hell, you sonarr told it to do that. Copy that junk (whatever it is, the entire folder if you can't figure out what's a media file and what isnt) into the destination dir, mark it done and ... be done. Move on with life.

But no, if the mkv name is mangled, if the episode name is not known, if the stars just don't align, basically any excuse and just do nothing.

That's the behavior I'd want and expect. If someone included a bunch of extra poo poo, multiple mkvs, etc... I don't want those all copied into my plex library. (Just imaging having to deal with 2 different randomly named mkv in a season folder in plex is enough to make me shudder.) I want it to ask for help. Copying the entire directory over where that could include executable, is a really bad idea for automation.

Radarr people -

When you've got the cut off quality of your movies, what is your next step? Leave it in Radarr for the length of time it's in your collection, or clear it out?

I found I was just leaving things in Radarr forever, but then going into it and using that to delete anything I was done, if I remember to even do that. But having Plex already keep a library of my movies I questioned what the actual point of doing this was (especially as I quite like using Plex to delete things these days). So I stripped a few hundred entries out now which probably had monitored tags in place for a bunch I really didn't need new versions of. I think going forward now I'll at the very least unmonitor stuff that's come down, then periodically delete the entries of those unmonitored ones. It's a shame there isn't a built in feature to unmonitor anything that's hit cutoff (I guess it doesn't for PROPER reasons, but cutoff+7 days or something would generally fix that) but there are scripts it seems.

Leave it in. Are you going to watch it immediately and realize that it only has mandarin dialog? Are you going to remember every movie you ever added if you get the spur of the moment of "Hey let me add X?" (Or are you going to check 2 spots in that case?) Are you going to decide that 720/1080/4k is the highest you'll ever want to look at a movie and never want to go back and change the cut off on some titles? But I also don't go and delete things from Plex either. So maybe my PoV is massively different than yours.

Just a quick update. I ended up installing Traefik 2.1 with forward auth leveraging Google Oauth to protect all my containers. It's all working very well. I know maybe it's not the best to open up 443 to the world, but all the containers that matter are protected by Oauth. The ones that Oauth doesn't work with (like the calibre container that uses Guac) I just whiltelist to local IPs only.

I think that it's a reasonable enough solution. Maybe I'm susceptible to DDOS, but that'd happen if I only had Ombi open anyways.

What I do and works with guac is add http basic auth over https before the reverse proxy in nginx.

A container's internal storage is read-only. Some containers are configured to allow minor revisions to be stored in mounted storage but generally speaking the strength of a container is that the contents are immutable and the mounted volume is highly portable. The mounted volume ideally only contains stuff

It's not that it's read-only, it's that it's ephemeral. You can write to it and it'll be saved in a layer, and then cleaned up the next time the container starts.

I had thought the answer to this would be it doesn't, as I run a similar setup (actually got its starting point from their Docker Compose I think) and in the past if I wanted to use nzb360 with the services outside my LAN instead of their GUI, I've VPN'ed in to do it to bypass Traefik.

But from some searching, looks like you can maybe just put the Oauth layer in front of the service GUIs through careful use of Traefik labels, and leave the service API endpoints bare for nzb360 to hit. So long as you don't mind leaving those endpoints bare, that is, using the API key for their protection. Have to see if I can get that to work.

A) Webdav sucks poo poo period, which is why people are saying to look at smb/CIFS.
B) No one is saying 24/7/365 but rather get a simple system going then expand it out when you know WTF you're doing.
C) What you are doing doesn't make any sense anyway unless you're on dialup. Sonarr is on your PC that isn't on 24/7 as you've said 237948 times. So you have a 6 hour window where things are going to be going to nzbget. Where 8-11 minutes later it'll be done. the other 18 hours the Pi isn't going to be looking for anything because it's not geting any instructions. So why is nzbdget and sonarr not on the same machine? If both were on Windows you'd get the files. If both were on Pi you'd get the files. And in no case would you be loving around with Webdav.

Interesting, I'll do that but in addition to the point system, since If there's an 8 year old ISO 100% of the blocks are going to be on Usenet while even with '5 seeders' or whatever, chances are it's never coming down from BT. This is also probably going to be what gets me to switch over to that other thing that autowrites quality rules for the *arrs so you can make a change in one place and push it out.
