Whenever I play media I see an indefinite spinning orange circle. I then have to back up and select the media again 3-10 times before it plays! I have friends and family with this issue, and the same problem has been described online multiple times for years, yet it still exists! More recently, I have media that outright doesn’t play! It seems this issue is centred around the Android app and the only solution seems to be to downgrade to an earlier version.
Complaints of the same issue described above.

IMO - Plex seems so determined with their new business model of becoming an input zero/content provider they have either forgotten or potentially set out to purposely alienate their core customer …
My server uses 136 watts, and will costs £1.80 a day to run from June when the price increases kick in costing £54 a month. I’m starting to think maybe it’s not worth it anymore having it run all the time!
Is anyone else re-thinking their home servers given the current cost situation?

So, I was on usenet constantly from the mid-90s-2000s, but have been looking to get back in and I don’t really understand the new landscape.
I know how the tech works and I know what an NZB is, but I now see the existence (and encouraged use of) paid NZB indexers. What do these do that is different than searching by name (binsearch, for instance) and generating an NZB that way? Given how it is taken as a given that you use one now, what changed? Are files being posted with obfuscating names or spread across multiple groups to make DMCA detection harder?
Is there some sort of manual way that dog is supposed to be configured because I never get any api results using nzbhydra2 or prowlarr. The search on dognzb works ok, just takes forever. Error while communicating with indexer DogNZB. Server returned: org.nzbhydra.webaccess.WebAccessException: timeout
I have no issues and i’m happy with my setup. But I just thought I’d ask here - does anybody else experience the Newshosting website being very slow? When I’m logged in to their control panel and navigating around - each page request takes around 20+ seconds to load.
Just seemed odd to me for such a large company with so much bandwidth and infrastructure.
I sometimes run a tool to check the TLS/SSL state of well known usenet servers. I post that on a website, but alas my posts with that URL get banned by moderators (because of “backdoor promoting” … ?).
Overall statistics:
243 known newsservers, of which:
Nice!
But then: how good is the SSL/TLS they offer? https://github.com/ssllabs/research/wiki/SSL-Server-Rating-Guide offers a guide for “SSL Server Rating Guide”, and the tool testssl.sh determines that rating per server.
A reason for a lower rating is still offering TLS1.1 and TLS1, or being vulnerable to well-known attacks like POODLE or providing low ciphers.
The statistics
Those B grades are caused by offering TLS1.1 and TLS1 … so why are usenet providers still offering that? TLS1.2 was …
Hi, I am with Newshosting and Giganews and noticed that the Giganews connections are *much* slower. With 20 NH connections I can almost max out my Gigabit connection, but Giganews with 20 connections seems to not get over about 10 MB/s, about 500 kB/s per connection (if I use a single connection it is only 500 kB/s in total, so the single connection is not any faster).
I noticed this a few weeks ago and have been monitoring this and it’s always the same, so I’m pretty sure this is not some temporary issue.
So I wonder whether Giganews is really that slow or whether my ISP might be throttling it - which would be strange as I don’t see any throttling for Newshosting and other services and protocols.
Sonarr v3.0.7.1477 has been released on main
develop
testing branch should take advantage of this parity and switch to main
A reminder about the develop
branch
/all
is deprecated and no longer supported. The FAQ has warned about this since May 2021. See the FAQ entry for details.Sonarr updated to the latest versions this morning, and as far as I can tell, manual import is gone.
​
Ami nuts? I have a few shows in Sonarr that didn’t import, I moved the files and….there seems to be no way to integrate them to Sonarr now. Running OS X.
I recently realised some episodes were wrong in a series I had, my fault, and I deleted the incorrect episodes then clicked the “search all monitored” button on the whim that Sonarr might be able to find the episodes. I say whim because this series was extremely hard to find in the first place. To my surprise, Sonarr found a lot of new and upgraded episodes!
Now, this series has been on Sonarr for a while and my RSS Sync has been at the default 15 minutes. Not once did it pick up on the upgraded episodes. The series is monitored and I know Sonarr upgrades because I have it integrated with discord to tell me when it upgrades an episode.
Anyone know why it didn’t know to upgrade this and if this is probably happening with other series’ too?
Here is a photo showing the RSS sync not picking anything up and then Sonarr finding better releases once I searched.
It seems as if the original developer has stopped updating it and it’s been very erratic with it’s behavior lately. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn’t.
I want to accept a lower file size for x265 videos. I’m happy with the file size I have set for x264 videos, so I basically want to add a condition where it is okay for a file size to be smaller. Is there any way I could accomplish this?
