I hit something at 2256 days old recently on Newshosting, multiple grabs and all came down fine. Pretty sure that's even past their advertised retention limit, and I'm not sure how much further back nzbs.org goes to be honest. Just another comparison that blows my mind when I think about using binaries back in 2001 where my subscription would get me 3 days retention and if you missed something being uploaded on its first day (because uploads would take multiple days then), you probably were going to run out of retention before getting it. For one thing. It's absolutely mindblowing just how fast things are these days.

suddenlyissoon posted:Right now I'm running NZBGet, NZBDrone, Transmission, and Mylar on an old Revo 3610 that has an Atom 330 & 2 gb of memory. It's pushed to its absolute limits and it's definitely hurting my download speeds and stability. I was thinking on trying to find a good deal on an Intel NUC, an SSD and some memory to build one. After seeing some of the black friday ads, I'm now thinking I could probably just buy a pre-built desktop for a couple hundred cheaper than I could do this myself. Outside of the obvious power usage difference, how dumb of an idea is this? Been thinking about something like this for myself since you mentioned it. I was thinking about an i3 NUC running OpenElec XBMC with the SAB+Sickbeard plugins and control it with my phone. Has anyone else tried this? Would it be able to play a 1080p mkv while parring or unraring without skipping frames? I was thinking of putting a 500GB SSD in there but it's going to drive the price up and I'm not sure if it's enough space. I delete stuff as soon as I've watched it but I'd like to use the dogNZB watchlist and not have to worry about running out of space if I throw a few dozen movies on it. It will be under my bed so I don't want to put a mechanical HDD in there because the vibration drives me insane. I'm assuming NUCs are fanless? My other option is getting a NAS with mech drives and putting it in the corner or near my PC and hoping I can't hear the noise from it humming away at night, but download everything onto there using the NUC still and have a smaller SSD in the NUC.

I, too, pulled things over 2k days old from usenet recently. It's kinda hilarious just how much retention a lot of these providers have now.

uhhhhahhhhohahhh posted:I'm assuming NUCs are fanless? They're not, though you can get fanless cases for them. I dropped the minimum fan speed in the bios to a point where it's pretty much silent when idle, but it will still spin up when it needs to. Unfortunately "when it needs to" often includes idling on the XBMC UI, though starting a video playing actually causes less CPU load and the fan silences again. It also immediately ramps up to full speed when running Steam in Big Picture mode, then often gets quieter when running an actual game (usually indie level rather than AAA obviously). I really wish there was a less strenuous option for Big Picture, it's a bit ridiculous that the frontend is more demanding than many games I launch from it. This all sounds a bit like I'm trying to dissuade you from the NUC, but really it's a great little box. All the above experience is with the i5 Haswell NUC, with the media stored on a NAS in my basement.

I had a similar problem with running XBMC in Windows and a NUC (2820 Atom). I moved to OpenELEC and the difference is pretty ridiculous, I have not heard my NUC at all since then. The downside being that OpenELEC is so stripped down that doing anything other than video playback is a pain in the rear end.

Is the fan a high pitched whirring? If it can't be heard over the movie it doesn't matter. I'm more worried about how loud it will be under my bed when it's idle. I'd only be running OpenElec with http://wiki.openelec.tv/index.php?title=Add-on:SABnzbd-Suite on it. Maybe I could make an mITX quieter than an NUC, but I don't know if it will be cheaper and it will be more power hungry uhhhhahhhhohahhh fucked around with this message at 21:55 on Nov 19, 2014 |

uhhhhahhhhohahhh posted:Maybe I could make an mITX quieter than an NUC, but I don't know if it will be cheaper and it will be more power hungry I just built an i3 based desktop and have it on the floor next to the TV. Cheaper parts and I still can't hear it at all using stock fans. It does use more power, but it's sooooo much faster than the Atom 330 I had been using for 4 years. ---- After some recent comments I decided to check out the nzbget/Sonarr combo. It's really quite nice, handles bad posts so much more gracefully. I'd highly recommend checking it out if you're on the SAB/SB combo. Took a bit to figure out the show management, but it's pretty slick once you get it going. Anime has been working reasonably well on it as well, though it'd be nice if they could make it to look for a certain subgroup. Edit: It seems they're looking at adding that feature in a future release at some point. Neat! PirateDentist fucked around with this message at 00:31 on Nov 20, 2014 |

SymmetryrtemmyS posted:What do you prefer about Get compared to sab? Seems like some information is easier to get to, I like the UI a bit more. SAB worked fine for me, but I thought I'd give it a try for a bit, see if I liked it better. Right now though it did totally fail to assemble a file that SAB breezed through with no problem. So I'll have to see what the hell is up with that... If SAB is rockin' for you I'd say it's fine to keep using it.

I've been trying out nzbget this week. It's OK. Not particularly better or worse then Sabnzbd. I like that you can assign servers to priority levels to control how it uses your various news servers.

Sub Rosa posted:Aaaand now I'm finally going to bother to switch So worth it. I have mine set up in tiers of increasing block cost, so the smallest and most expensive block is the last one to get checked, which is also the wonky stand alone euro server that abides by DMCA takedowns about as well as china abides by international IP law. It also has a new fast-PAR, where it compares the CRC checksums in the par data to the files downloaded, and will only go back and do a full block by block validation when something breaks. It also supports the PAR rename feature and a bunch of other nifty stuff.

I'm working on consolidating pretty much all my computers to VMs on my NAS, so I can move to streaming everything and all I need is HDMI. I use Yatse to control the XBMC instances over wifi. Unraid is incorporating VMs, though it's still in beta, but pretty far along. With Steam streaming, I should even be able to play video games wherever, though I haven't tried it out yet, need to get another video card for the server.

Does anyone know of a way to have SABnzbd unpack downloads before moving them to the destination directory? I've been having issues with Plex not matching stuff and after monitoring the log while something was downloaded I noticed that it creates a folder in the destination where it unpacks to then it moves things to the appropriate location (renaming/cleanup).
