Along with the "Calibre hates you if your library is on a network share" issue, last night I discovered the hard way that calibre-web-automated doesn't work out-of-the-box on older Synologies because of kernel limitations. Supposedly it can be done but I had no patience to unravel the rat's nest of "fixes" people have cooked up. The automation, though, makes it well worth hosting on my NUC rather than with the *arrs &co on my NAS, which I would've preferred.

Pray for me. I just moved and went from a 2Gbps symmetrical fiber connection, to a 500Mbps down, 10Mbps up 5G connection. Doing my best to get Verizon and the landlord to install FIOS.

My general approach is to run as little as humanly possible on the NAS host OS beyond NAS critical operations with the exception of containers to limit potential “fun” from conflicts with the OS and its mission critical services. Are you trying to do things bare metal?

Are you trying to do things bare metal? No, via docker - I, too, prefer to pad the metal. As far as I could surmise from reading around, there are problems with the older DSM kernel running Docker on the Syno and the Calibre binaries shipped in the CWA image. In any case, every configuration I tried last night (clean, dirty and in between) kept ending in "can't find Calibre binaries" errors. Without functioning Calibre binaries the ingest fails at the "add to your library" stage and any other library editing tasks are impossible.

Oops wrong thread, but while I’m here I could probably survive going from my 1gbit to 500mbit but tbe idea of going back to 10mbit up would kill me.

Yeah, no. It's funny reading all this poo poo, like I don't have a lot of ebooks and now need to toss calibre into my hopper because from my limited use seems like it stuffs 50 copies of a book all over the place.

I did, no regrets, should have done it sooner, the funny thing is I "pay" for 500mb/s, but in real world poo poo I often still get 700+mb/s.

Huh apparently I had a slug account for the past 8 years, I just never moved it over to prowlarr...

I think NinjaCentral is open too. Just checked my stats on prowlarr and I get a decent amount of grabs from them.

Nice thanks. Just signed up. I have geek and nzbfinder as well but geek is coming up due. Think it's worth letting that one lapse now that I have DS?

Here's what I have and some stats, but this is a single point of data, ymmv:![]() Not sure why i am not grabbing anything of nzbcat ... will have to look into it at some point, if there's an error somewhere.

I've raised 3 kids and several pets including adoptions. I feel like keeping Prowlarr happy is harder than that was/is.

I remember setting up Prowlarr once but it didn’t push something to the other *arrs that I figured it would, so it’s basically useless? ![]()

I think the last time i opened it was when it reminded me that my VIP was expiring on an indexer (super handy feature btw).

I just wait until I get the little “indexer failed for more than 6 hours” or whatever it is message in whatever *arr I happen to notice it in then go re-up

Yeah, to clarify...it does just work but it gets updated probably 5x as fast as the other tv/movie twins. Just was pissed at indexing warnings and it struggles to clear them. Sort of an OCD thing for me...so all on me...old man ranting at the clouds. Carry on with grabbing linux isos.

I used to get similarly annoyed until I set hourly (not daily) maximums per indexer. The indexer sites usually show a daily api request limit somewhere, took that divided by 24 and then minus 10 or so to provide some buffer. It still shows a warning when the limit is hit and temporarily disables the indexer but that's unavoidable ![]() Daily tended to not line up properly due to clock skew - for DrunkenSlug at least, limits fall off hourly
