I’ll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

    The modularity of docker makes this great! I have a docker stack with overseerr, 2x sonarr, 3x radarr, 2x readarr, lidarr, unpackerr and sabnzbd. Another stack with nordvpn and qbittorrent. It’s so easy to setup and it becomes very powerful.

    I have some users on Plex that simply do some requests on overseerr, I approve them, then everything gets downloaded automatically. They just have to wait for it to be available. I used to be suscribed to Netflix, not anymore since their offering dropped while their prices raised.

        Radarr/Sonarr can’t handle multiple versions of the same movie/episode, so a lot of people have a second instance for 4K movies (so they can have both a 1080p and a 4K version of the same movie). Also if you have a lot of anime it can be worth it to have a Sonarr instance configured just for that

        The other reply is right!

        • I run 3 radarr: 1 for 1080p, 1 for 4k and 1 for 3d. (I share the 1080p, it’s bilingual too, the 3d one is for fun)
        • I run 2 sonarr: 1 for English, 1 for French (since most often the series aren’t bilingual, they’re one language or the other)
        • I run 2 readarr: 1 for ebooks and 1 for audiobooks. (Sometimes I want the same book in audio form and in text)

          This is probably a dumb question but how do you run Sonarr twice?

          Also, where do you get your French content? I’m having a hell of a time finding places

            Lack of knowledge isn’t dumb, it’s just lack of knowledge. You can’t know everything.

            I run 2 docker containers, named slightly differently (my setup is a bit more complicated within a stack though). Then I map a different port for the FR one so it doesn’t conflict. Of course, you need a different config volume. Then once the container is up, you can I link my FR sonarr to my EN one. So when I request something on my EN Sonarr, it also adds it to my FR Sonarr.

            I also do that with movies, but for HD and 4K instead. I manage multi-language differently.

            I’ll PM you for my source of French content.

              Thank you for the detailed response. This might be the shove I need to look into docker haha.

              I would appreciate a pm with a source - thank you!

      You are my hero. Can this power be learned or do you have to run a story arc for some internet wizard?

      I don’t know overseerr yet, sounds like it might be useful for my gf 🤔 Also never heard of unpacker, gotta check out the advantages of that.

      I only recently finally got into docker and it’s amazing. Good thing I spent the extra bucks for the NAS that supports it back when I bought it some years ago. Maybe I’ll switch Sonarr/Readarr/Readarr and Prowlarr to docker too, so that I can manage everything the same way.

      I was so close to going legal and signing up for Netflix, and then all the other platforms started to pop up and the content got split over all those. I just want one platform for all my favourite shows and movies. It should be shared like with Spotify/Google-/Apple-/YouTube-Music, not the exclusive chaos that it is now.
