I followed these steps to get NZBHydra to work with Sonarr. https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/comments/4x63mf/status_check_sonarr_nzbhydra_nzbget/

It does work, but after awhile if I search for something in sonarr it's like there are no indexers. Manual search shows no results too. If I go back to Indexer settings and hit Test, it starts to work again. Did I miss something? Anyone else deal with this?

Sonarr black lists indexers for a time if it doesn't get a response once or twice in a row. It will enable them if you test and it works (or some time threshold passes). I'm guessing it is doing that for some reason.

Hydra sometimes takes a long time to do a search, wouldn't be surprised if it went past sonar's timeout window and got blacklisted. It happens toe pretty regularly.

Ok then it's probably the free indexers I have that only have 5 API calls or downloads a day. They're bringing down the rest. I'm not at home, but I think I remember seeing a setting that I could change for those.

Yeah NzbHydra has a per indexer API limitation setting if you need it.

Does NzbHydra let you setup kinda conditional snatches like anything released since last search that is 1080p but from before the year 1990 or something weird like that. Cause I tend to like browsing whats new and grabbing all those.

Does nzbs.org have an IRC or email I can contact about an account? I did a clean install of windows and nzbs.org is the only place I can't remember my password for. It doesn't recognize any of my emails for password reset either. Is nzbs.org still good or are there better/good enough free options now? I don't actually use it that much and I would rather not pay for anything.

Hiya thread, I'm brainstorming for an article about OLD Usenet. Like, 1980-1995 Usenet, not the filesharing it's mostly relegated to today. I was wondering if anyone here has stories about Usenet, shareable experiences, or remembers any cool stuff that happened back in those early years of digital communication.

I know this thread is for the modern Usenet, but I figured it'd be the best place to ask. If I'm barking up the wrong tree, let me know.

Sad I missed this conversation but I have to put a plug in there for alt.religion.kibology, which I think of now as sort of a proto-SA forums.

If you do this, I'd really like to see title -> volume selection when you add a new book. What I mean is basically another dropdown for volume, showing the name (if applicable) and years, scraped from comicvine.

I was under the apparent false impression that NZBHydra was only useful for manual searches.
But it looks like you can actually hook it up to Sonarr, CP, etc. as the searcher itself and let Hydra do the lifting of figuring out which indexer to use.

Does anyone use Hydra in this way and does it work well?

That is exactly what I do, and it works perfectly. It's no quicker, but it's much easier to change your indexer list or the tools you use (like when I switched from CouchPotato to Radarr).

I've been using it for the past 3-4 months, I wish I had done it sooner. Makes life so much easier if you ever lose your Sonarr/Radarr configs too, don't need to manually readd a lot of indexers to each one. It has a lot of cool features and stats, I like the ability to set an API limit per day for free indexers. It's pretty neat to see percentage of grabs from each indexer and be able to control the weighting to some extent.

...the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt. —Bertrand Russell

In my very limited experience, all the releases with x265/HEVC are at best same quality as x264 with smaller file size. I'm excluding these releases because I don't care so much about the file size, but one of my Kodi machines chokes on HEVC.

So, my question is...am I missing out on any releases or groups doing releases that are actually better quality?

Nairbo
Jan 2, 2005
Most x265/HEVC encodes are just re-encodes of scene/p2p releases already out and the re-encode has a negative effect on picture quality not to mention the noted crawl of a computer. My understanding is that Intel and a few other companies are working on a new encode format that will render x265 obsolete and likely x264 as well. x265 has never really become the norm and is mostly banned for anything but 4k on any decent private tracker, the source of most content on Usenet as well.

x265 is pretty pimp but yeah, alot of playback devices that are more than a year old or not souped up htpc's choke on them.

I've never seen it to render HIGHER quality, just same quality at lower file size, which IS relevant to some people but I generally avoid them.

Ran into a problem today. Had the following error pop up, and I don't recall making any changes that would have caused it - [Errno 10061] Server news.supernews.com uses an untrusted certificate [[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:661)].

Spent the last few hours looking for a fix, but couldn't come up with anything, so I was hoping someone here could help me out.

I reinstalled Windows 7 a few weeks ago, reinstalled SABnzb, had it set up to run on SSL port 563, everything worked fine. I did update to 2.1.0 today, but I want to say it was still running on Strict verification before then. Anything I can do short of nuking everything and starting over?

Anyone still use sickbeard??

I tried sonarr but it didn't work immediately out of the box like sickbeard so I never bothered to keep going with it. The UI is nicer but totally unnecessary too.


Anyway sickbeard has been loving up the past few weeks and not downloading anything. All the episodes are showing as unaired but also showing up as normal in the "up next" page.

Is this a Tvdb thing or a sickbeard thing?

I realise sickbeard has been dead for a long time but it was operating fine up til this issue. If it ain't broke etc. if the answer is move to a new app then I guess I will.

I'm considering switching to sickrage since it'll run natively on my NAS and I can finally migrate my entire media stack (sickrage, sabznbd and plex) to the NAS and leave my desktop mostly turned off

Im having an unrelated issue with my Mac at the moment that means I cant view hidden files because I hosed my Bash profile. so I cant delete my Sonarr DB and therefore cant bring it up to date - the last time I used it was like 4 years ago and upon starting it the other day it immediately added about 900GB of downloads to my queue. it also doesnt have a build that runs on my NAS, as far as I am aware.

SymmetryrtemmyS posted:

In terms of install on MacOS it definitely is, and is definitely easier to keep running (i have an automator script that I have running 24/7 that keeps sickbeard alive) but again, Sickbeard was set up, working, and hands free until now, so I didnt see the point in adding a flashy UI when I never had a problem with the way SB did everything else.

I guess Im against a wall so its probably the most realistic option but as I said, would be great if I could offload my whole usenet operation to my NAS (ReadyNAS RN204) and the only app that I cant get for the NAS is Sonarr, which I can replace with SickRage.

I was more interested to see if SickBeard had finally died completely than anything else, since its no longer capable of identifying shows it knows the air dates for have actually aired.

Sickbeard is dead. The project lead hosed off. Sonarr is the common accepted replacement. Sickrage is just a fork of Sickbeard. Radarr is the movie variant of Sonarr and is under heavy development though is totally functional at this point. Sonarr apparently is modular enough that you can plug in various types of data into it. Radarr just being the most notable example. I've seen test builds for books, music and one guy made one for porn somehow.

There was a modular Usenet program someone made years ago, but it didn't go anywhere. Good on the Sonarr team for making it easily extensible! I'd like to see a Mylar, LazyLibrarian, and Headphones replacement at some point - that's the full Usenet suite, as far as I'm aware, other than TV/movies.

Radarr actually excels at it since it uses Sonarr's filtering system and options. Highly recommend.
