The Ultimate Automated Media Setup for Movies & TV Shows

Radarr, much like Sonarr, is very simple to setup and requires minor configuration once installed. The configuration for Radarr is also available via a web browser at http://localhost:7878. The wiki for the project has great documentation that should be able to get you going.

Installing Radarr, Sonarr and Deluge on your Unraid Server

Radarr is another open source software solution that I recommend installing. Radarr is a fork of Sonarr for media content that Radarr doesn't support. Similarly to Sonarr automates the downloading and organisation of this content. Radarr will download requested content as soon as it's available in your desired quality.

Radarr is a relatively new service, made specifically for downloading Movies. It's based on the same interface as Sonarr, so new users that have used Sonarr in the past should be right at home with Radarr.

Leaseweb vs other providers
Unfortunately, if you install a GUI, you will have to pipe it through a webserver. Something like guacamole. For a headless and people not well versed in command line, swizzin is normally the go to. You install Debian, then access the command line, and then run the swizzin script to set it up. It adds a GUI for everything. Source: 10 months ago
Seedbox Recommendation - €70, 64Tb+ Storage/ Plex
There is currently a Hetzner auction dedi with 4x16TB drives for €70. AFAIK, Hetzner would be the cheapest storage option, so even though it's not 70TB, at that price point you're pretty much stuck. You can rent one and install Saltbox or Swizzin yourself, it's pretty easy. Source: 11 months ago
What it looks like to host a completely automated *arr Suite
PS: btw swizzin is really cool and easy to use to install and manage seedbox. Source: 12 months ago
Is there a good guide or prebuilt setup to install media server like Jellyfine, Sabnzbd, Qbittorrent ect on a ProxMox server?
There are lots of scripts that will install the software for you automatically. Swizzin is pretty popular, and I use it when I need something spun up quickly. Just create an LXC with debian or ubuntu and swizzin will do the rest. Source: 12 months ago

Gzip compression questions for 2 use cases
I use Nginx for Sonarr/Radarr would I see any general performance benefit when loading their webpages in general? If so, what level of compression would be ideal for this case? Source: 10 months ago
/r/Plex's Moronic Mondays' No Stupid Questions Thread - 2023-07-10
There may be better places, since I've just stuck to the same one for years now (and don't need them often enough to look into alternatives), but I usually use either subscene or opensubtitles. There are also programs that can automate it like bazarr, but it requires you to also use Sonarr/Radarr. Source: 10 months ago

Best programs to use alongside Plex?
Two instances of Radarr (one for 4K and one for everything else) running on one of my Linux servers. Source: 11 months ago
Mixture of local and streaming possible?
Jellyfin doesn’t download movies. I think you want Radarr for that. Unless you mean that your Jellyfin server is somewhere else other than the cabin and you’re connecting to Jellyfin remotely from your cabin, in which case yeah you’d probably have to wait for it to download/buffer which could take a while.
