For those who don’t know, until recently Stargate SG-1 was only released on DVD for seasons 1 through 7 while seasons 8 through 10 got HD releases on various digital platforms (iTunes, Amazon, etc.). In addition to the DVD release being stuck at a low 480p SD resolution it was also impaired by various quality issues resulting from the videos being highly compressed to fit as much as possible on each DVD disc. The only admirable thing about the DVD release was that seasons 2 through 10 had a good 5.1 Dolby Digital audio track (season 1 only had stereo DD).
Recently what changed was VEI released a low budget Blu-Ray HD upscale of all seasons of SG-1. The releases has numerous issues and a good breakdown can be read here but the bottom line is the video quality of seasons 1 through 7 is vastly improved over the previous best option from the DVD release however the audio track included in the blu-ray release is garbage for everything except season 1.
For season 1 the BD release …
Plex Meta Manager is a Python 3 script that can be continuously run using YAML configuration files to update on a schedule the metadata of the movies, shows, and collections in your libraries as well as automatically build collections based on various methods all detailed in the wiki. Some collection examples that the script can automatically build and update daily include Plex Based Searches like actor, genre, or studio collections or Collections based on TMDb, IMDb, Trakt, TVDb, AniDB, or MyAnimeList lists and various other services.
The script can update many metadata fields for movies, shows, collections, seasons, and episodes and can act as a backup if your plex DB goes down. It can even update metadata the plex UI can’t like Season Names. If the time is put into the metadata configuration file you can have a way to recreate your library and all its metadata changes with the click of a button.
I created Plex Meta Manager after working on most of the recent extensive …
ErsatzTV is free and open-source pre-alpha software for configuring and streaming custom live channels using your media library. Channels can be added as a Plex DVR via HDHomeRun emulation. I also regularly test with VLC and the IPTV clients Channels DVR and TiviMate.
Local media with optional sidecar NFO metadata is currently the only supported media source, while Plex integration as a media source is under active development with Jellyfin following closely behind.
The project is very young but definitely usable at this point, and I would very much appreciate any feedback!
What makes this project different than existing options?
Someone gained access to one of our mods’ accounts overnight and closed /r/usenet to private. We have notified the admins, and reopened it, but since that user still has access that we’re unable to remove, it could still cause us issues. Please pardon us for any problems while we sort it.

Hey r/Sonarr, I am super excited to finally release v14 to everyone, which includes the new Dashboard section that is designed to merge together the whole app experience into one section and open up new functionality for nzb360. The app has long felt to me like 12 different apps that have been glued together into one, and my goal with v14 is to try and seamlessly blend the services together behind the scenes to just give you what you’re looking for, without having to worry about which service it comes from.
Note, I am also planning on expanding my integration with Trakt.tv, TMDB, and others (which v14 has already started), so stay tuned on that!
As always, I would LOVE to hear your feedback on v14, the new Dashboard, and which new content/dashboards you’re interested in. Thank you so much for everyone’s support.
Enjoy v14 =)

Any good detailed guides for how to set up Sonarr (and Radarr) inside Docker? I have never used Docker before and I find the text documentation a bit confusing, but I hear it’s the way to go. I currently have Sonarr set up on my Windows 10 computer with qBittorent but I was hoping to migrate over to using docker in an effort to make my setup more secure.
I’m curious if any of you have a good system for keeping on top of movies that Radarr won’t automatically grab?
Especially foreign language films, and those that TMDB lists with a different release year for whatever reason.
According to Radarr, I have a giant backlog of ‘released’ movies, that I just can’t seem to find anywhere.
They may have been VOD while in theaters or had awards screeners, but never officially available to collect.
The biggest offenders tend to be foreign language, documentary/music films, and independent/art films.
There are a ton of these films that are listed as having theatrical or web releases, but were never widely available.
This makes it next to impossible to identify movies that really are available, but Radarr won’t grab.
Has anyone devised a good method for filtering their missing movies, to help identify releases Radarr skips?
I can’t very well manually search for 300 or so missing movies every few …
