Commenting so I don't lose this post, because I'm curious too.

As a goth, I'm jealous of your party!

Source and how-to-setup for recent Native Instruments software? (sh.itjust.works)
 

For the uninitiated, this is software for music and it's notoriously complicated. I have a paid version from about a decade ago and I'm not giving them anymore of my money. Reddit used to have a vsttorrents guide for this, but it's been forcibly removed. I'm trying to get Komplete 15 Ultimate, with all the added stuff I'll probably never even look at

Can you estimate % of space saved?

How to hardlink qBittorrent music after retagging with MusicBrainz Picard? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
[–] LazerDickMcCheese@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago

Problem solved. I'm a damn idiot. I have Prowlarr, Sonarr, and Radarr set up...totally forgot about Lidarr. Thank you, sorry for the ignorance

Yeah, that's what I thought but I wanted to try. Hate not giving back when I get something. I'm trying to retroactively seed my entire music library if possible. Looks like I'd have to make my own torrents

Yeah, that's what I was expecting unfortunately... The problem isn't the filenames, the problem is that the downloaded files lack any real metadata, so my media libraries ignore the files...I'm also talking about terabytes of files that I can't afford to duplicate right now. Maybe I'll make my own public torrents?

How to hardlink qBittorrent music after retagging with MusicBrainz Picard? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I would love to seed (and cross-seed) my music library, but metadata tagging and renaming fucks the files up. How do I set up qBittorrent and Prowlarr to keep seeding after retagging?

In my case, I'm always seeding hundreds of torrents...yet my upload rarely goes above 1 or maaaybe 2 Mbps. Could just be luck, but you can always throttle the speeds if you need to

Everybody should look into hardlinks and cross-seeding. By today's standards, it's painless and very unlikely to ever take up your bandwith

How to auto download with *arr? (sh.itjust.works)

Update: it was an issue with API keys due to a previous install.

Update 2: new problem, qBittorrent has an I/O issue, probably involving the final destination for the media: my Synology NAS. Any advice here is appreciated.

Update 3: I was having issues with mapping my Synology NAS as the root folders, so I restarted the *arrs and now they are unreachable. The solution was to reinstall them without uninstalling them because my computer is weird.

Once a year I try setting up Prowlarr, Sonarr, and Radarr and I felt confident so I reinstalled them. The *arrs are connected to qBittorrent (all tests succeeded) and Prowlarr (again, tests succeeded) and vice versa. I added every indexer that I could successfully connect to (which was most of them) and currently have all of the web UIs open : which work as expected. Everything seems to be communicating and functioning as intended so I tested Radarr. I found a popular movie and started monitoring it, this was about 30 minutes ago. It hasn't shown up in qBittorrent and I'm not sure what I'm missing; can someone help me troubleshoot? In other words, how do I know definitively that this movie I have selected will download and when will it download?

Paperless-ngx Alternative? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I've tried installing it about a dozen times over the past year, but it always gives an "unable to get image" error. So I'm wondering if there's an alternative that does everything paperless does...but lets me use it

It's Hard to Stay Motivated (sh.itjust.works)

I got Jellyfin up and running, it's 10/10. I love this thing, and it reinvigorated my love for watching movies. So I decided to tackle all the other services I wanted, starting with Paperless-ngx...

What a nightmare. It doesn't have a Windows install so I made an Ubuntu VM. Don't get me started on Ubuntu. I just spent about 12hrs trying to get Portainer to cooperate and had to give up. I tried just installing Paperless the "normal way" and had to give up on that too.

My point: if you're getting started selfhosting you have to embrace and accept the self-inflicted punishment. Good luck everybody, I don't know if I can keep choosing to get disappointed.

Edit: good news! Almost everything I wanted to do is covered by Jellyfin which can be done in Windows.

Jackett Alternatives? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Is there anything Jackett does that can't be manually installed to qBittorrent as a search plugin? I ask because Jackett DOES NOT work for me. Trust me, I've tried everything even with tech support. Its not my VPN and its not my ISP, because the sites are accessible and qBittorrent is definitely configured to work (and don't get me started about configuring Jackett, it gets old quick). I just want to make sure I'm not missing out on any potential trackers
