We previously announced that we would go private for the site-wide blackout.
I’m sure you’ve all read why subs were protesting and what has happened since to pour gasoline on that flame, so I won’t repeat it all. If not, I would highly suggest you do prior to proceeding; if you’re interested in knowing more, I would suggest checking out r/ModCoord (or perhaps just the latest open letter; it serves as a good reminder that our goals with protesting is not to immediately abandon the platform but be one of many to push it into being better).
While we took longer than we would have liked to return, we were met with overwhelming feedback from the community to go private for longer than 48 hours, in particular, indefinitely; now’s the time to see how the community wishes to proceed with this issue:
PROTEST: Restricted: We continue protesting, but we go into restricted (read-only) mode.
PROTEST: John Oliver: We continue protesting, but we only allow content …
So this probably doesn’t matter to most people, but in the newest beta, you can now choose which gpu for plex to use.
It’s a huge deal for me because I have a 10900k equivalent Xeon that has a gpu, and a p2000. I personally like the p2000 more for plex as I find it more stable…but there is a weird bug on my motherboard where if I enable my igpu, no matter what settings or parameters I choose, plex will always cling to my igpu. So I need to disable the igpu to use my p2000 which means I can’t use the igpu for anything else.
Happy days!!!
I know it’s a bit if an obvious question but an article I read suggests using a raspberry pi to run the plex server but I’m at a loss of where and how people store their content?
I simply have another PC that runs Windows but it’s my Plex server. In it is a 20TB HD. I access it through the native app on my TV.
I did have 4 or 5 smaller HDs but swapped them a for a single solution to be quieter. I also turn off the PC when I’m not watching something - it’s purely a local solution with a nice front end… like my own personal Netflix.
Do people just have external drive caddys plugged into switches or the raspberry pi or what?
The Forensic Files on the left is on my server, the one on the right is on Plex. I have their shows turned off / unpinned, but this keeps happening. Clearly it’s treating them as the same show as far as remembering where I am in a season, but why is it even showing the extra version?
We have opened registrations for next 24 hours.
Edit: Registrations are closed.

I just wanted to say thanks for all the information and answers everyone has put into this group. I am a long time private torrent tracker user and have never really looked into alternatives. When I did the “cut the cord” a couple years back torrenting pretty much took a back seat to the Streaming services. Now that there are so many streaming services, I am back to the price it was for cable. Even worse, some of those paid services now have commercials. This has made me brush off some old hardware and log back into some of my old accounts.
The journey has brought me to this community, which has been very helpful. I have learned so much in the last few hours and just want to really say thank you. I will for sure be stalking r/UsenetInvites for a little while as suggested in multiple threads. I did read the wiki … they know 26 is close to 30 right 😆
Thanks again, Looking forward to not needing a 1:1 ratio or having a torrent run for 7 days.

Happy sky scanning this Friday!
Good day,
On June 30 (This Friday), International Asteroid Day will have everyone looking toward the skies; can you see our Gnome Wesley heading towards us on that big asteroid? :-) The International Asteroid Day was founded after the release of the film 51 Degrees North in 2014, which explores what would happen if an asteroid were to strike London. The film’s creative team wanted to raise more awareness about the threat of asteroids to earth, and how we can help protect ourselves.
Raising awareness about everything that is happening in the skies is something we encourage, that’s why: as of right now until Wednesday 5th of July 2023 (12:00 CET), you’ll get a a big phat 35% discount.

May the Turbo be with …
Currently I use sonarr/radarr for my TV and movie wants. I can find most stuff with torrents, but for rarer stuff I have to do a lot of manual searching. I have everything running as docker containers. sonarr/radarr will use prowlarr to find torrents and then use qbittorrent to download them.
For Usenet, I assume I will need to add a Usenet indexer to find content, such as Newznab and a download client like Nzbget. I will also need to have a subscription too, is this correct? Any suggestions on what will work well for both tv and movies (indexers, downloaded, Usenet search and download subscriptions) Remember, I plan on using docker containers if that helps. Hopefully I can just drop these new services in.
How long does content last on Usenet? Like if there’s something that came out in 2018, will it still be available?
How does sonarr/radarr handle both torrent and Usenet grabbing at the same time. Does it just try and do both and cancel one when the other is successful?
I recently started exploring the wonders of the *arr world but I struggled to setup my Sonarr and Radarr profiles so that I could prefer “German DL” files. After working on it for a few weeks I think I’ve found a pretty good solution now.
If you find any flaws or have suggestions I’d like to hear them of course!

So for some reason Sonarr keeps randomly downloading entire season of TV shows. Like last night it grabbed the first season of NCIS. Is there anyway to stop this from happening?
I have noticed there have been new releases (The Witcher) that have DV.HDR in the title.
My original profile of always rejecting anything with DV using the must not contain is obviously missing these new releases with DV and HDR in the title.
Can anyone shed some light on how I can setup a profile to download anything with HDR and also DV.HDR but skip just the DV releases?
I can’t seem to find a way. The below is what I was trying to do. But it seems to just download anything even with DV only. I can’t use the Must or Must not contain as DV is present in both the keep and reject filenames.
\b(HDR)\b 1000
\b(DV.HDR)\b 1000
\b(dv|dovi|dolby[ .]?vision)\b -1000
Wait. I think I might have just figured it out:
DV HDR10 1500
DV HDR 1500
HDR 500
DV -10000
DV (WEBDL) -10000
the above settings still show that DV is not rejected but it is pushed down the list and just the HDR version is downloaded. I am unsure though if there is only a DV release will Sonarr still grab it and …
