I downloaded a Coheed & Cambria Concert, then converted it from VIDEO_TS to MKV, and somehow, Plex decided that THIS was the right title to match it. Yes, I clicked play. Yes, it was the concert. Was I disappointed? Not sure yet. I’ll unpack that with my therapist.
Over the past week or so, I’ve been having some playback issues with movies/shows. So as part of my troubleshooting process, I downloaded both Emby and Jellyfin in an attempt to see whether the issue was Plex or some other part of my system (the issue ended up being something unrelated to Plex).
All I can say is, wow, Plex is way ahead of the others from what little I saw. I have heard time and time again that Emby and/or Jellyfin are better for x, y, or z reasons, but that was not my experience at all. Both of them organized my libraries horrendously, where Plex handles them like a champ. Sometimes even Plex fumbles the ball a little, but never have I seen such a disorganized mess than I did on those other platforms.
Maybe it’s too harsh to fault the others for poor library organization, but IMO that’s a huge part of the experience of watching your content. If you can’t even find the show or movie you want to watch from your library, what’s even the …

Have to travel and its just stuck on queued from past one hour. Streaming working fine. Enough of storage space. Restart app multiple times.
I had posted this reply to someone in another thread, but thought others may find value in it. Basically, I’m a serial tinkerer when it comes to tech shit and have spent years trying to find the ultimate media server setup. You will find at the bottom of the post some of what I have tried in the past, only to come almost full circle back to where it all started.

SABnzbd - Server news.newsdemon.com uses an untrusted certificate [Certificate not valid. This is most probably a server issue.]
Did something expire on their end or is the cert store on my end not trusting their cert? Same goes for us.newsdemon.com (probably same cert in both locations)

As the title says. Is there a way?
Hey all. Recently resetting up all my Emby/arr stuff, and I found TRaSH guides which are incredible.
I finally got stuff going and downloaded something and noticed it was a 50GB movie. I am starting with more limited space and I honestly can’t tell much diff in a 4GB movie vs a 50GB movie.
Does everyone really use the 400 (max) quality from TRaSH guides?
I know everyone is different, but why would anyone want a 50GB file over 4GB file when they look very similar.
Anyone else have similar thoughts and what was your solution?
It seems like I’ve got Sonarr and rTorrent on my seedbox working correctly because I can search for a show on Sonarr, it initiates the download in rTorrent, and once downloaded…. some files are moved to the /watch folder.
When searching for answers, I am only finding people with the issue of Sonarr not moving all files. I’m having a hard time figuring out why only some of my files are being moved over. I don’t see any obvious differences between the files that have moved and those that aren’t moving. The downloads have completed in rTorrent, I see the folders and files in /files, they don’t appear to have any weird naming conventions.
Edit: I think I may have figured part of it out. It seems like Sonarr can’t see .mkv files. Looking at the Series, there are error icons next to some seasons of the series (the seasons that are mkv files), and when I hover over the error I see the message “Episode missing from disk”. If I click the …
Is there an extension or ‘arr’ software that you can be searching any website in your browser and if it picks up a movie in what you are reading, there is a pop-up (or something) that lets you add that movie to radarr? Something that scans any website you are reading and can identify a movie.. even when watching a trailer on YouTube for example to easily add it to radarr?
I haven’t been able to add/search for new movies in Radarr for a couple weeks. Here is the log entry that repeats over and over when I try and add a movie but it may not be that helpful:
