The main problem I have with subs is forced subs.

Watching a movie and then I'm wondering "is this part supposed to be in another language without captions or is it missing forced subs?".

Agreed. I don't really know what a good workaround is. I guess if there were a distinction between closed captions and regional translations? Most sub files you have to choose between two types of 'english' to find the right one.

The best you can do as far as i can tell when you're using Kodi is to install the subtitle downloader plugin, and search for the term "forced". In case you didn't know this (I didn't for years), thats what subtitles for a secondary language only are called.

It's still not a great solution, but its what we've got.

Most of the time it should. If the audio track says English, it’ll auto select English Forced subs. If the audio track doesn’t say English (the ever popular ‘Unknown’ for example), it’ll auto select English subs.

It’s when the forced track isn’t there, or something is mislabeled is when the problems start. It works often enough that it’s why people usually get minutes into a foreign conversation before wondering ‘wait, should I know what’s going on here?’

Yeah, that's exactly it. It's not a matter of plex or kodi doing something right or wrong.

It's a matter of 35% of movies are uploaded with the forced subs not included and 25% of movie scenes with foreign language having no subs by design.

Block news is another highwinds reseller (they used to not be). There are a million and probably cheaper ones.

Started using hydra2 a couple of months back, and it's been performing pretty well on my hardware. The old one was ramming my CPU and especially disk so hard with every single search it was slowing other processes down, and in the end corrupted its database in some way and became completely inaccessible through the web interface, which was when I finally pulled the plug.

The Java one has stopped working a couple times where it seemed like the thread pool manager gave up and died. Doubled its RAM allocation from the default setting and haven't had any more trouble. Not yet, anyway.

I tried to upgrade a few months back, but my system has Java 9 installed, and hydra wouldn't work worth it. At the time it was set to wontfix, as the underlying problem was with spring, the web framework it uses.

You can download Java 8 from oracle, unpack it somewhere and point nzbhydra to use that JRE instead of the global one. Then you can still have java 9 but use 8 for those programs that still only work with it.

I can't login to Sonarr anymore since updating. I'm using the forms login and when I enter my username/password I'm just met with a 500 error. If I refresh or try to manually type the url of another page it just diverts me back to the login page. Has anybody else experienced this?

Cool thanks.

Can you or someone else tell me why whenever I look for providers I keep seeing warnings about such and such a provider being "just a Highwinds reseller"? Is this so people don't just pay multiple providers who use the exact same source?

Exactly. Nothing wrong with Highwinds for the most part, but no point paying for an unlimited from them and also a block account that sources from the same place.

I had that the other day. I wondered if it was just confused or if it failed to decompress it and Sonarr did it just fine instead. :shrug:

A few of my grabs from nzb.su were doing that, there was a thread on the nzbget forums about it IIRC. I just sort of ignored it for now since it doesn't affect anything and I assume when my dockers auto-update it will go away.

After the Hydra2 comments I replaced my Hydra1 docker container this week, seems to be working ok.
https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/hydra2/

The auto upgrade worked well, and the only config change I had to make was setting an api key for sonarr/radarr to connect with. I'd just left it blank for Hydra1, but it looks like 2 requires it.
The speed never bothered me for my use case, and being in docker I don't care about the dependencies, but I wanted to be on an actively maintained product.

The auto upgrade didn't work for me but it was no big deal to run the old next to the new and transfer over the settings individually. Then update sonarr and radarr. Seems to be working well and like you said now actively maintained.

Can i get Plex to automatically download subtitles in two languages (English & Norwegian) without using opensubtitles.org? It's blocked in my country because ??? we are retarded

I managed to bypass the block on my actual computer with some DNS stuff, but i don't think i managed to do it on my Synology NAS cause it's not downloading and applying subtitles at least.
