Headphones MB mirror and indexer going yearly paid: Not worth it for me, considering how unreliable Headphones is and how little real dev it's gotten in years. I can't help but feel this is another cash grab like so many indexers, programs, etc that beg for money and then fold up shop. quote:Hey there - UndyingShadow fucked around with this message at 20:38 on Mar 2, 2015 |

yeah sorry headphones guy, but the thing's a pile of poo poo that never really worked well in the first place. Maybe have a non-lovely thing and then charge for it? I'd say if people are destroying your indexer, work on your search algorithm instead.

Headphones, both the indexer and the program, has always been pretty terrible and unreliable for me. I don't bother with Usenet for music any more.

I got sick of trying to get headphones to work (one day it grabs a few albums, 3 months later it grabs one more, etc), so a little while ago I just shut the whole operation down. Making it a subscription just gives me another reason to stick with songza/spotify.

I think certain things work better on Usenet while others work better on private torrent sites running software like Gazelle. Music absolutely falls into the latter.

Astraweb is being a pain for me too, and I'm not on Comcast. I'm getting connection refused to ssl-eu, ssl-us, and ssl subdomains. edit: Looking at it again, either Astraweb turned off port 8081 or my client somehow got the bright idea that it should start connecting to port 8081 out of nowhere. Either way, switching to 443 fixed things up. Achmed Jones fucked around with this message at 22:38 on Mar 4, 2015 |

Has development on Sickbeard ceased? I notice the last git commit was over a month ago and on their forums there is a sticky from someone I'd presume to be a top developer saying they're leaving the project.

I'm running it on a Raspberry Pi and it was sluggish as poo poo to load the webpage. Sonarr is loving silk smooth. I'm wondering if sticking with Sabnzbd is also warranted.

I also made the jump to Sonarr and it has been amazing. At the same time (about 3? months ago) I installed NZBGet and haven't had a reason to go back to Sabnzbd. I'm not a crazy advanced user or anything but it does every task I give it faster than Sabnzbd, especially just plain old unpacking, plus the interface is better. Everything is running on a decently powerful machine because I have it performing other tasks so I can't really speak to how less powerful hardware would effect it.

OK so I guess I will try out Sonarr and NZBget, though Ive not really ever had issues with sickbeard and SABNZBD. Is there a way to migrate my database and settings from the latter two apps into the former?

I'm about to try out NZBget over the SABnzbd server I've had for years, but has anyone used Sonarr on linux? Requiring mono would introduce an extra point of failure for me, where at least sickbeard is purely the python I already have installed for a dozen other things.

Requiring mono would introduce an extra point of failure for me, where at least sickbeard is purely the python I already have installed for a dozen other things. I'm running it on a Raspberry Pi B under Arch Linux and it's pretty good. Sickbeard was sluggish when rendering the web GUI. Sonarr is much faster at doing this and it also appears to tackle failed downloads.

I'm still using SABnzbd so can't help you there, but with Sonarr, I just pointed it to same folder SickBeard used and seemed to pick up everything. Just have to link up the info which wasn't too difficult. You'll also might want to tweak the settings for renaming if you want to keep everything in the same format when it renames things.

Thanks. Yeah I'm setting up sonar now and it's very nice (sickbeard still has no .app for OS X) but I don't want the year showing in the title of the shows/seasons at all. Can that be done? I can't see a switch for it.

New shows I've added since migrating over didn't add the year from what I've seen in my folders.

Although I have yet to find documentation for it's real purpose, I think that's what the Drone Factory is for. At least that's how I've been using it! You can set the folder and scan interval with Download Client > Advanced Settings > Drone Factory. I set it to only scan once a week, with the idea that I don't use it all that often and when I do I can just force scan on the the system > tasks page (Downloaded Episodes Scan).

So, to move to Sonarr I just need to tell it where my TV directory is and it will discover everything? Also, I like the way Sickbeard notifies Plex to process a download, does Sonarr do this? What is Drone Factory, a part of Sonarr? SBs fiasco with DST and nzb.su has me looking at Sonarr.

porktree posted:So, to move to Sonarr I just need to tell it where my TV directory is and it will discover everything? Yup, you'll point it at the TV directory, then go through and make sure it found all the right shows. Sonarr will do the same notifications - just make sure to set it up under the Settings > Connect tab. I have my PMS connected and set to update, and PHT notifications work if you pretend it's an XBMC installation. Drone Factory (I think) is just the name they use for a scanned post processing folder where files that Sonarr didn't snatch get processed. I think if you download other episodes into the sonarr download folder then it doesn't know what to do with them. If anyone knows where I can find some documentation on this so I can get verification, let me know. edit: Although that's how I'm using it...maybe I'm doing it all the hard way? https://github.com/Sonarr/Sonarr/wiki/FAQ posted:Does Sonarr require a SABnzbd post-processing script to import downloaded episodes?

If you have super-high Internet speed NZBGet can max out connections better than SABNzbd too. Sorry, I wasn't clear. What I really meant was that each has advantages over the other so there wasn't a clear, general this-one-is-the-best winner. FWIW, NZBGet being faster at downloading is also a function of the speed of your hardware. On my i5-750 server the two clients max out my 100 mbit connection. On a note that this reminds me of...I realize everyone uses Usenet differently, but to be honest I don't really care much about speed as long as it's above a threshold like maybe a MB or two. My downloads are all automated, so stuff just shoes up in my HTPC libraries and then I watch it. I've only got 100mbit because Charter keeps upgrading our speed for free. The bastards.

other than being faster (a non-issue for me since it's on a nas4free server sitting in the corner that only does usenet and holds my raid, basically) what's the advantages of Sonarr over Sickbeard? It looks like to even give it a shot I have to upgrade my nas to get off FreeBSD 9.1 and get to 9.2 or beyond, so I'm not super thrilled about fixing what isn't broken unless there's a killer feature for doing it.

If you've got an integrated Sab setup that you're happy with, it's probably not worth moving over to Get. If you're starting clean, or you're having problems with Sab then Get is more worthwhile. It's a better client (IMO) but it's not massively better.

Eh Sonarr comes so close on the 'mobile interface' but it just seems like it's trying to be responsive and isn't wonderful at it. Messes up a lot, hard to navigate the show because it uses iFrame style things, needs multiple taps to get something to respond. It's not awful, it just could be so much better.
