Something odd's just started happening with Sonarr on my machine. I installed both it and radarr and had them set to start up automatically but not launch the browser (i've got both interfaces pinned in chrome anyway). For the last week though, despite the toggle still being set to off, sonarr keeps on opening up chrome on start and then launching another tab in chrome in addition to the one that's already there and pinned. Any suggestions on how to fix it? When i look at the startup: Radarr, has 3 lines (Conhost, network command shell, radarr.exe) Nzbdrone.exe has 16 lines (the same 3 as the above, an Adobe Create PDF plugin listener for chrome, and 12 chrome lines with varying levels of priority). I'm assuming both Radarr and Nzbdrone should be the same in the startup, and that Adobe thing shouldn't be in there either as part of that NZbdrones process?

I've been out of the usenet game for about 5 years now. Do people still recommend NewsHosting as their provider? That's what I had before and I remember liking it.

I use newsgroup ninja. You'll just want a primary unlimited preferably that has US, NL, and DE servers and then a backup block account from a different backbone. https://www.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/providers Question of mine. In Radarr I've discovered just recently that if I finish a download and then go click the Search tab for another movie, it can't populate that list of available files. I restarted Radarr to no avail yesterday and then my router today which may have fixed it. But then after downloading another file, it happened again. Any ideas? I've used it up until now without problems. edit: wtf nevermind it works again. Don't know what is going on.

I got hundreds of items through CouchPotato before I switched to Radarr. Unfortunately, Radarr has a lot of unfortunate bugs and the developers aren't super interested in maintaining it.

Huh? There was a bit of a lull between Oct and Dec but I'm looking at the Dec. 14th changelog for Radarr and its got a ton of fixes. I was looking at Watcher3 at some point but Sonarr/Radarr haven't been missing anything so I haven't really had any real reason to switch.

Does the metadata scrape have to be automated? I used to use tiny media manager for that, I imagine you could put in a script hook to call it direct too in the Radar post-process. Once I moved to Plex and realized it takes care of metadata, I stopped using it though.

There are a lot of bugs that require major work to fix but the core devs don't do much on the project anymore. Most of the bugs fixed nowadays are low-hanging fruit that are easy for non-core devs to work on and fix. The big bugs that I encounter are related to the UI. Sorting and filtering with large libraries is hilariously bad...sometimes. The backend just stops updating the filtered list of movies at some point, each time you update the filter it just returns the same list of movies. For some odd reason they insist on doing all the filtering on the backend without using some sort of opportunistic updating scheme...

I see Watcher mentioned as a non-Mono-dependent alternative to Radarr, but am a bit reluctant to switch over... has anyone run the two side-by-side for comparison? My server is a Mac Mini running Sierra, and having to run two instances of Mono for Sonarr and Radarr is a bit of a hog... along with the Radarr bugs Thermopyle mentioned.

I don't use metadata features in Sonarr or Radarr since Kodi and Plex handle it on their own so I don't know if there's some horrible brokeness, but at a glance it looks like there's something useful there. For curiosity, what is the point of externally scraping the metadata when the good frontends can do it themselves?

Just got a Synology NAS for Plex and Usenet. Installed Plex from an spk, but thought that u would try Docker for Sabnzbd, Radarr and Sonarr. Running into what I think is a fairly common issue in that Radarr can't see the files that Sabnzbd downloads (it's in the right folder, just not finding any files). I was able to confirm that the UID and GID are the same, so I don't know what the problem is. I saw someone mentioning creating a whole new user for media, but that doesn't make any sense since I'm the only account on the system and I'm assuming that everything would be tied to the numeric UID anyway. I'm using the "Linuxserver" versions of both Radarr and Sabnzbd. This is my first real experience with Linux, and the streamlined GUI is making it difficult to follow examples from the internet.

The most used 'how-to' on these dockers is at https://drfrankenstein.co.uk/ Check both the Radarr and Sabnzbd logs for errors. A common problem would be not having a Docker definition for 'downloads' between these apps be the same. Also, with File Explorer, check the file ownership on the directories and files (right click, properties). For UID/GID (PUID and GUID in the docker variables), you'll need to have check /etc/passwd and /etc/group for the IDs as you cannot make those up. For what its worth, I too use Plex spk with the rest in dockers. The use of a defined media group helps at the Plex end because the spk creates a Plex user, so adding media group to that users rights can allow for Plex-controlled deletes by the Plex admin, and is also an easy way to extend other users into the media shares (I do this with Sonos and an Oppo player that each have their own users defined).

I haven't tried running those exact programs in dockers but are you volume mounting (-v /host/path:/docker/path) the shared directory into each docker at runtime? That may help.

Thank you both. Since Plex was already outside of the Docker environment, I ended up making additional "download" folders in there, and pointing Sonarr and Radarr out of Docker and into those. I guess (?) the problem was trying to process the downloads from within the Docker/Sabnzbd folder.

Weird, with these new uploads that have their names in initials, Radarr is able to index them fine in its search but if I grab them through its interface they get sent to nzbget but Radarr doesn’t acknowledge them from that point on, so have to Manually Import.

Saved me a shitload of data and frustration when I was getting Radarr set up and updating my collection. I’ve been using the Completion script for NZBGet for about a year and it’s so good and useful that I’m surprised its features haven’t been rolled into base NZBGet.

Given that 2 HDDs on the NAS are WD red at 5400RPM the speed of that thing was never its strong point.

When running on the same system as the storage they can use system APIs to know if something changed. When accessing it over SMB they take a more brute force approach. Any reason you couldn't just have your entire download apparatus directly on the NAS?

I got plenty of CPU power available for repairing and unraring things, the NAS just does storage over the network, nothing more. Secondly , my download apparatus is quite complicated, with custom applications that I built over the years that do all kinds of crap. I understand that the NAS has a linux OS running on it, but everything is just much easier and faster if I have computers/VMs handling that and just shoving it onto the NAS when done for long term storage.

Sonarr is very solid but Radarr is still weird like CP was all those years ago. I had added a film before it released to blu-ray which did not download when it was released. I manually found a file that met my criteria and downloaded it and THEN Radarr took the credit for it and moved/renamed for me. Im assuming Radarr is not as far a long dev-wise as Sonarr?

Other than the godawful user interface and now this issue with working too hard on my NAS, didn't have a problem with Sonarr/Radarr either. Unfortunately, i'm not aware of a better one (slickbeard is old and I don't remember what the issue was but it had something going wrong that forced me to move to sonarr).

There are plenty of nice options that run on decently capable x86-64 CPUs. Or DIY it, which is what I actually did because it was cheaper and I don't value my own time. If you want to keep the split setup maybe using NFS or iSCSI might be a better way to do it.

And yes, everyone other than a couple of windows machines in the house use NFS to talk to the thing (32k read/write buffers, though some only use 8K). Is not the speed of the NAS, it handles that well. But when you have a crappy program that's scanning the harddrives like there's no tomorrow every minute/hour/whatever it doesn't matter what you have. To throw hundreds of $ down the toilet because sonarr sucks balls is not acceptable. Luckily it can be told to stop this nonsense, even though i would have preferred to just tell it to take it easier. Ultimately I hope to replace it with something saner.
