Kin posted:I've just upgraded my TV (50" to a 75" 4K capable one) and was wondering if any of you have a general rule when it comes to resolution and file sizes? I'm a stickler for quality and I've never had a problem with 1080p webrips on a 65" 4k tv. I would say use the release profiles posted towards the top of this page and set the quality to 1080p. However, looking through the 4K offerings, I am noticing that they are being released more frequently, and a number of them have HDR. Is there a way to tell Sonarr to download an episode in 4K ONLY if it has "HDR" in the title, and otherwise prefer 1080p?

If anyone else occasionally grabs 4K shows, don't forget to make sure your indexer settings in Sonarr include the indexer's 4K section. It looks like when you add DogNZB to Sonarr, it defaults to only searching SD and HD. Took me a little while to realize why I couldn't find anything.

Laserface posted:is there any solid way to know what shows are out in 4K and which are not? i set everything to prefer 4K but it never gets anything at all, but I have also had a few instances where Sonarr has grabbed a new copy of something and attempted to overwrite it while I was playing it via plex, which was fun. I just go off the assumption that if it's a Netflix or Amazon Prime show (maybe Hulu?) then it's probably available in 4K. If it airs on cable, then it's not.

DogNZB is my favorite indexer, and it's completely usable without paying for it. I haven't paid them a cent since they went to the subscription model and it's my primary indexer (since NZBCat sucks so bad).

EL BROMANCE posted:Anyone on Sonarr (v3 only perhaps) finding their usenet nzb provider API isn't returning results for a show, but if you do a search on the site by hand it comes up fine? I've seen it every so often in the past, but a few times this week I've added a show with episodes that have aired and done a scan and it's grabbed from torrents instead, despite being further down the chain because it can't see anything. It's weird. If it's specifically 4K stuff, you probably don't have the 4K category added in Sonarr. Otherwise, maybe you're out of your daily allotted API calls?

gabensraum posted:Can I get a sanity check on this Sonarr enhancement request I put in a while back? I don't mind anyone saying no to my request (it's free and it's their voluntary time and all that) but I suspect the person who closed it may have misunderstood it. Can you give a (fake) example of a release you'd be happy with, and a release it would then upgrade to? Are you saying like 1080p Webrip to 1080p AMZN? In that case, couldn't you just weight them the same?

Chumbawumba4ever97 posted:What's the best way to test this, to make sure I am not doing the same? If you haven't explicitly forwarded ports to give Sonarr external access, you're probably fine, but if you type into your browser your external IP address, a colon, and the port Sonarr is listening on (8989 by default), you should be able to see if it's accessible (eg. 123.456.789.123:8989). edit: do it from an incognito window so you can also test that the username and password are set up

Chumbawumba4ever97 posted:I did in fact set up port forwarding because I wanted to be able to download TV shows or movies while out of the house. I just tried what you said, and got a pop-up for a username and password. I am hoping that's good enough? Or is there something else I should be enabling in the Sonarr/Radarr/SABNZBDB config settings? You should be good. Obviously a strong password is a good idea, but it's unlikely anybody is going to brute force your username AND password.

It seems like sometimes the 4K remuxes just don't make it to usenet for whatever reason. Maybe they aren't popular enough for anyone to bother with. If a 4K blu-ray exists, chances are there's a remux for it somewhere. It might be worth checking public trackers if you've got a VPN. I've definitely found remuxes there that I couldn't find on usenet.

It's probably a permissions issue, since you're running on linux. Sonarr probably doesn't have read access to your downloads folder. It'll also need write access for the folder it's moving them to, which is an issue I've even had on Windows.

Alright, I knew NewsDemon was getting bad, but it's straight up useless now, to the point where I can't even get brand new stuff to download. What's the current best deal for pretty much just grabbing recent shows?

If you know what they are, but aren't a member there, I can't imagine there's any reason NOT to talk about them.

Their retention is absolute garbage and they are heavily affected by takedowns. They were my only provider for years over the summer I was having completion issues with even brand new shows. Switched over to the Newsgroup Ninja $30 a year plan and everything just works again like it should. These issues are on top of the fuckery they pulled a couple years ago when a big chunk of people on their cheap plan suddenly lost their plans aren't weren't allowed to get back on them.

Taima posted:For a long time I used my computer for work (I work from home) so my plex and Sonaar and etc was on the box I was using for my daily job. Look for an extension for whatever browser you use (eg. nzbget-chrome for Chrome and NZBGet) which integrates with indexers and lets you send an NZB over with one click. If you intend to use this outside your network, you'd have to forward the port SAB uses.

George RR Fartin posted:Recently, my tv grabs have been mislabeled - say, the latest season of community where every episode is wrong. Is there something in Sonarr that could be screwing this up? It appears to be every series I've added since updating to the latest Sonarr release. Pick an episode that you know is wrong, find that episode in Sonarr and click on it, click the history tab, and hover over the downloaded icon on the left at the bottom of the list. That should tell you where it grabbed it from. Now go to that indexer and manually download that same file manually. If the episode doesn't match what the indexer said it was, either stop using that indexer, or lower its priority in Sonarr so it's used less. If that's not the problem, the Details column of that same History tab will show you where the file downloaded to, and where it was imported to and what it was renamed.

Xaris posted:Okay I'm kind of at my wits end here. I've got Plex running on my Synology NAS all hooked up with sonarr/radarr/sabnzbg/etc and generally playing content on my LG CX oled. Starting around maybe about 9 months ago a lot of releases have started playing with green-purple hues all over everything (and if I try to watch Plex on my PC, I get "Color Space Not Supported"). I can't tell from Sonarr/Radarrs file listing what exactly is causing it but it appears to be related to Dolby Vision although it's usually not marked in file names. I've had to go through about 10 different downloads to find one that finally worked. I didn't use to have an issue with HDR content so this is really something that's only sprung up recently and no idea why HDR suddenly is loving everything up? A quick Google search suggests that the CX supports Dolby Vision. Have you turned it on? I think it's off by default on most devices. Also check to see if Plex has any sort of DV settings.

Looks like it jumped to $40 / year last Black Friday, but it's still a decent deal. Regardless, wait a week before making any decisions, as Black Friday is when most providers have the best deals.

There's not much reason to have Radarr and Lidarr checking more than every six hours or so, considering how infrequently movies and albums get released. Even at the default though, I wouldn't expect to hit 1000 a day unless you're in Radarr manually clicking search on a bunch of individual episodes all the time.
