Does NZBget allow you to open the folder containing the downloaded file from the completed downloads page? That's the one feature I'd like sabnzbd to have the most.

Not that I can see, but if you click the name of it it'll bring up an info panel and one of the things is the path to the file at least.

OK, so would this be a good way to start out or am I missing something? Supernews $9.99 for 1 month. Drunkenslug indexer $10/year. nzbget Are browser extensions still necessary?

All of the indexers I use have that functionality built in so there’s no need for an extension. I think the OP is pretty old. Edit:Yeah last edited 6 years ago. Depending on what you’re looking to download you should look into Sonarr, Radarr, and headphones. I’ll let you google those. But they automate a lot of stuff by basically creating a download wishlist that interacts with the indexers and the download client automatically so you don’t really have to do anything except tell it what you want and then it goes and grabs it, unpacks it, renames it, and puts it where it goes.

I don't know how far along Lidarr is, but it's a Sonarr/Radarr clone for music. If I had to pick one indexer, it'd be NZBGeek. Fast uploads, great API speed, and lifetime premium is available. PFMonkey and NZBs.org are also great, but you can't get into NZBs.org so I wouldn't necessarily recommend it. PFM is a good choice, and I've been told that they have more obscure music indexed than some others. My setup is Sonarr, Radarr, NZBHydra2, SABnzbd (switched from NZBGet a while ago for the server stats) with NZB360 for phone control. I don't really download music, and when I do I can just search for it on Hydra, so I haven't bothered with Headphones/Lidarr. I use NewsGroupDirect for my monthly, and free-usenet for two 500gb blocks, I couldn't resist that BOGO. I've used basically none of my blocks with NGD, and I signed up on sale so I pay $4.

I think you have to send a message to support after ordering. You could also get a block from somewhere like Usenet.Farm or UsenetExpress. The indexer is more important than providers these days. If you get on one of the better indexers you won't run into many (if any) DMCA takedowns. sedative fucked around with this message at 23:17 on Jun 17, 2018 |

Is it worth it to switch all my poo poo (SAB, Hydra, Radar, Sonar, etc.) to Docker stuff if I'm just running a Windows 10 file server? Hydra1 seems to be getting a lot of http 500 errors and complaints from Radar/Sonar as being unresponsive, so I was going to try out Hydra2 and that led to Docker research. I read about Docker awhile ago and was interested, but then read something about there not being much benefit if you weren't running it on a NAS box. Seems to be even more popular now.

I am of the belief that if I do not need technology X, I do not employ technology X. There are very valid use cases for Docker, running these programs on a server is not one of them. On the other hand, there probably is no harm in doing so, if your goal is to learn more about Docker.

A benefit of running hydra2 in docker is not having to install JRE on your server. Same goes for radarr/sonarr with regards to Mono....but I don't have as much against Mono as I do against JRE. It becomes especially useful when different apps require different versions of JRE or Mono.

I am not familiar with mono, if it can be installed outside of the package manager or not, but java can certainly be. You can have 100 JREs installed on a computer that do not conflict with each other at all. All you need to do is :
For the more "complicated" applications, one may need to create a shell script that launches their shell script. Your shell script only needs to set the environment variables that the other app needs: JAVA_HOME,JRE_HOME, maybe update PATH so it has /some/path/jre1.2.3/bin/ at the start. Done.

I wasn't saying that it's been impossible to use multiple JREs up to the introduction of Docker. I'm saying that Docker is just as valid a solution to that problem (and maybe even easier) and when you couple that with not wanting to manage a bunch of different JREs on top of managing your JRE-needing applications, Docker seems pretty attractive.

If you have the HDD space, sure. When I played with docker (getting an application of mine built by the container and create a slim container to host it) i found myself with a 30GB /var/lib/docker after a couple of hours. That's not very nice. Not very nice at all.

Docker makes updates a breeze, you don't have to worry about locally installing dependencies and removes the few security concerns I had about running a media server. The verbose docker logging can be disabled too, I had the same thing at first with one specific image. But yeah if you're already happy running the apps themselves on Windows then no real reason to switch. I was rebuilding my entire NAS so I just went the unRAID/Docker route.

That's not very nice. Not very nice at all. A valid point, though maybe not the best in a thread focused around downloading things that tend to be large. These days 30GB can easily be one single release, so it's hard to care about a few GB of overhead on your media server. That said I ended up switching back away from Docker too after having tried to switch my entire media server over to it. I just found it to be too much extra complexity to manage path mappings, port forwards, and diagnostics when troubleshooting. It seemed like more trouble that it was worth to me for a single system. I don't like having the JRE on my server but it's at least the system-provided OpenJDK so it updates automatically along with everything else. I totally get why Docker is popular in the "cloud" world where people are deploying dozens or hundreds of identical instances but I find it less than ideal for a single system running one copy of each thing.

The Gunslinger posted:... and removes the few security concerns I had about running a media server. ... It shouldn't. Docker is not a VM. One can get out of a VM as well, but it is a little bit harder. Out of docker is comparatively a breeze. If you had security concerns running a media server before, the same concerns should still exist. As one former docker developer said: do not run code that you don't trust in docker. Linux cgroups' goal is not security, but resource usage control and accounting, and namespaces ... again, is not a security replacement. A VM provides a much lower surface of attack of the host system.

One huge plus for docker (to me) is that once you get your system set up with well updated containers (linuxserver.io for instance.) then any kind of updates just becomes docker-compose pull --parallel docker-compose up -d And every part of your system is on the latest.

I use the linuxserver.io docker packages. They cover all of the most popular services and the stuff is put together so well. I have all of my configs for each service in their own directories separate from the containers. So there is no fear of having to wipe everything out or having to move to a different container or roll my own container for a specific service. The only naggy little issue I have is Mylar doesn't update correctly for some stupid reason. But Mylar is by and large a piece of crap and if I didn't suck at web dev I'd try making my own version of it.

Just because it's easier to get out of a container than a VM does not mean running in a container is on an equal security footing as the same software running directly on your server.

Question about Synology NAS's for anyone that know a bit about them. I just got a second HDD for mine, first one was 3TB which i thought that "this will last me aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages", but i filled it in 6 months. So now i have another one that is 6TB. Eventually that one will be full also tho! And i'll have to buy a NAS with room for more drives. When i do that, how hard is it to move my hard drives with current files to the new NAS and have it just work? Is it just a matter of putting the old drives in it and it recognizes everything automatically, or is it more complicated/not possible? Don't write up a long explanation or anything, i'm just planning ahead and i want to know if it's easy to do or hard.
