Is there anything about that that makes it worth the $15/year rather than a 1 time payment? Also, is something like NZBHydra recommended for Sonarr to connect to multiple indexers, or is that just to make it easier for other things (CouchPotato, etc)? It seems like Sonarr takes more than one indexer with no problems, so it doesn't seem necessary, but is it worthwhile? Grumpwagon fucked around with this message at 16:20 on Dec 10, 2016 |

Hydra is handy if you have multiple accounts. I use it for my manual searches instead of automated. I've got accounts at dot org, 6box, Cat and NZB.su but funny enough it's 6box with its free account and limited registration that pops up with files before the others.

I registered for 6box when registrations were open, though apparently the admin goofed and deleted a bunch of accounts by accident and I lost mine. I don't think they provided invites when I was still registered. Haven't seen registration open since, despite checking somewhat regularly.

Has anyone tried doing a multi-user setup with Usenet? I'd like to share this with close friends. I could use a FTP setup to handle them download to their box but I'm more worried about feeding NZB into Sabnzbd. Would just using API handle this? I'm thinking create a docker containing Sabnzbd on a different port from my current setup then symlinking a folder that I can share via FTP. Users upload nzb to Sabnzbd and retrieve it via FTP.

Sort of like UaaS, goofy but works. I might suggest you run some sort of secure FTP and don't use the default port (many ISPs will get fussy with you for running that).

Are you sure you really want to get into distributing, even if it's just to friends? Usenet access is cheap as poo poo, just get them set up with their own accounts. No need to make yourself responsible for what your friends are acquiring.

No need to make yourself responsible for what your friends are acquiring. This is definitely something you want to think about. Remember the reason people get in trouble for P2P is the sharing part. We all know you're only using this to get the latest Linux installers at top speed, but if your friends happen to download something less legal and it gets discovered somehow you're going to have a problem. If you decide you still want to go ahead with your plan or just want to set up remote access that you can use yourself from arbitrary computers on the internet, I'd recommend skipping FTP. My personal remote access setup is all HTTPS. Nginx running on my media server on a non-standard port configured to only respond to a certain hostname. If a random scanner manages to find it all it sees is the Nginx default page. If you use the correct hostname you get a user/pass prompt, then beyond that a standard web server file listing of my entire media pool. I then have subdirectories set up for reverse proxying to my applications. [url]https://[/url]<hostname>/nzbget/ gets me nzbget, then theres/sonarr/, /couchpotato/, and so on. Mine's only for me, but obviously if you added more users to nginx's list this same setup would scale rather well. A VPN would be easier and more secure, but you lose the ability to control your system or access your content from any arbitrary remote device since you'd have to be able to install a compatible VPN client.

Think of it this way. If one of these people downloads child porn using this system you and everyone else that has access to it is now implicated in a child porn ring. It's not worth it.

There's nothing really "goon approved" but a Supernews or Astraweb unlimited account with a Usenet.Farm block backup account is generally quite good. Some stuff on the network with dragons and thrones might give you problems no matter how many servers you try but generally the setup I referenced above works well enough.

So I had the whole thing set up and I'm probably gonna tear it down. It's functional but the people who were "totally down for it" never actually bothered using it. It was really more a challenge to see if I could pull it off. I'll probably explore the option of running my own Newsnab server so I don't screwed over when my indexer dies.GutBomb posted:Think of it this way.

Yeah that is a concern, I have the server in France and if they refuse to extradict Roman Polanski I'm sure I'd be fine in the few days it took before I noticed this and flattened the whole server.

I recall when I was using SABNZBd there were separate keys you could use so that if you were to set up a browser add-on like nzbdStatus on another user's machine with just the NZB key they would be able to have your SAB daemon download the NZBs itself without giving them access to the front end at all. Nicer than having them download NZBs and upload via FTP. But dude... dude. Dude. What?

Apparently there is a fork of Sonarr called Radarr that rips out the TV Show module and has inserted in a module that is designed to do movies. https://github.com/Radarr/Radarr

What's the advantage of anything over a search bar and an RSS feed? It's a convenient, user-friendly way to set and forget a "wish list" and preferred quality settings, automate filing and renaming, etc.

The problem I have with automatically downloading movies is that every movie gets released by 20 different groups, with wildly varying qualities. One group might release a 5gb 1080p version that looks like complete garbage while someone else released a 20gb version that looks perfect.

If it's a Sonarr fork, you can identify a preferred file size range for any purported quality, which helps filter out the chaff. Honestly, though, I've never really had a problem with quality. Everyone's working off the same source material, and file size is generally good indicator of what you're going to get.

Is it quicker than just searching an indexer manually?

RSS lists are great if you're getting everything as it hits but things are getting nuked insanely quickly so I value retry features.

It's useful for when I want movies that haven't yet come out. When you see an advert or trailer you can add it to radarr and you can just forget about it until one day you get a notification and it's automatically downloaded. I always go through at awards season and add a bunch of movies that look interesting from the nominations but I wouldn't necessarily remember to check up on them in the future otherwise. On a separate note I had been working on basically writing this exact program but as a python port in my spare time so I guess I'll find something different to do

No, it's not. But it does automatically handle sanitizing the file names and organizing your media for manual downloads, as long as the right category info is passed in from the indexer. The advantages of automation for movies come down to two things: 1. Set it and forget it. If I'm high and browsing movie trailers I have a "bookmarklet" (javascript in a bookmark) that lets me one-click whatever I want in to my Couch Potato queue. If I'm really all about Big Buck Bunny 2 but it doesn't come out for eight months the computer handles the rest and it doesn't have to rely on my memory. 2. Rapid downloading after release. Some of this content tends to get hard to find after a few days. Being able to grab it as soon as its posted increases the odds that you actually get it. Regarding crappy releases, that's all about using the blacklist feature. I have two or three groups and a few variants of "xxSUBS" in my blacklist and I almost never get something I'm not happy with anymore.

Ah ok, stuff that hasn't come out yet makes sense Not sure I'd bother otherwise, especially as decent indexers will group all the various releases of a movie together from a single search so it's easy to pick exactly what you need

You never want to mix spergy TV folks with spergy movie folks, the drama implosion will gently caress up anything it touches. The nice part about having a shared codebase is most of the added features or changes can be easily cross-ported while maintaining the 10ft pool separation required. That said, I'm super stoked to be able to bulk import all the terrible 900mb movies to get them into the system then updating them to something non-potato quality.

I'm running it alongside couchpotato at the moment just to so I make sure I keep up with the updates on it. It's way too early to be the main piece of software in use at the moment as it has a number of functionality breaking bugs such as it's interaction with nzbget's remove duplicate download function at which it gets stuck in an infinite loop. It looks pretty promising though at the moment.

Easynews is actually the best filez experience you can get, it's all in the browser. Its basically google, you just search for something then right click and download that 20GB mkv file right in the browser. It even generates thumbnails of every video so you never get a fake. The only problem is the low cap. I havn't used it in over 5 years so it's probably even better now.

Been having an issue with sabnzbd putting files in the wrong location. I have setup categories in it to send files to different locations. So I have anything in the category books goes to one directory. What I'm having an issue is when I pull something from my indexers that is a sub category of books just gets dumped into the main directory instead of the location I have setup for them. This only happens when I manually add a nzb to the queue on DogNZB. Here's the categories that I have setup that I'm having issues with code:I know I'm missing something simple but it is driving me crazy since I have categories working for other groups. diremonk fucked around with this message at 20:30 on Jan 18, 2017 |
