Don’t know how long it will be for but https://www.tabula-rasa.pw/ is currently accepting registrations
It looks like giganews went down, also super through NGD.
Checking DNS propagation with a worldwide checker shows no resolve for giganews.com and super.newsgroupdirect.com. Seems like a pretty big deal!
Hi all,
So I am new to Usenet and have spent some money on paying for an annual account on one of the sites. I have setup 2 Usenet indexers on Sonarr using API keys I was wondering if there is a list anywhere of decent indexers I can use? The 2 I have currently are free and just asked me to register and I linked my paid account with SABnzbd to deal with the download side of things but I wouldn’t mind some more indexers on Sonarr in case one of the other 2 fail I have no idea what they’re called or what to search for or if I can use their API for free and let SABnzbd deal with the file collection side of things.
Thanks for any help!
Cheers
I am new to usenet. Actually, I should say I am about to sign up for my first account to incorporate it into my life.
Anyway, I see Frugal has an unlimited package for $35, and another for $40 that also includes bonus 300 gb on blocknews.. However since Blocknews is on the same backbone (unless I read something wrong) as Frugal, then isn’t that 300 GB kind of pointless? Or is there another point to it that I don’t understand?
Not complaining about 94 MB/s but I know people are able to saturate much higher speeds so wondering if there’s anything I’m missing.
Setup:
Newsgroup Ninja + Tweaknews
SABnzbd
SSD drive for download & move to mechanical drive (1150 MB/s folder speed in sabnzbd)
Wired connection, ~930 Mbps on speedtest & ~900 Mbps on fast
Located in US, connecting to US Newsgroup Ninja servers
I’ve played around with different combinations of connections between the 2 servers and the fastest speeds seem to be using all 50 connections on Newsgroup Ninja and not using Tweaknews at all (have it set as priority 1). Should I expect a little more speed or is 94 MB/s a realistic true speed taking into account overhead etc?
Hi, I know this is a rtfm. But I am having a hard time languaging my query in Google.
Before a couple updates ago. When I would open the Plex app on my TV. The left side options window would be my server and the server folders like picture 1.
Now picture 2 and 3 show when I open plex on my TV it defaults to streaming and trending. Then I have to hit more to access my server.
Is there a way to default the Plex TV app opening screen to my server and server channels? And can I remove the streaming stuff?
I appreciate any help. Thank you!
Good day to you fellow plexers, a short story just because I feel like it.
I have a plex server for almost a decade now. Before that I already had a collection of movies and series, I admit that my mp3 collection was inexistant since the rise of the streaming services. And now that I have plex, well I was thinking that maybe I should add many of the “best movies” if I or my friends want to discover some gold. So I’ve added Many IMDB 250 and such or Sight&Sound… Same for TV shows or anime. And I rebuild a FLAC collection, because Plexamp is so good.
And here I am. Around 3000 thousand movies, and thinking of buying more space. In total 18 months and 3 weeks worth of watching. If I watch three hours of content each day, it’s 4480 days, so I have 12 years and 3 months before worrying of adding anything else. But who am I kidding right ? I’ll keep adding new releases.
And there is the problem of wanting to rewatch some things, which will delay …
Hey guys!
I made a python script that checks YouTube channels for live streams then creates a m3u playlist and xmltv guide for use with xteve so you can add YouTube streams to the live TV section of Plex!
I found it useful for news streams and even some sports! (UFC streams all the prelim fights before the main card on YouTube for free!)
I also add some 24⁄7 music channels using this like LowFi girl.
The script is setup for Unraid so if your on a Windows machine you’ll need to change the directories.
I’m new to coding and this is my first time posting anything on GitHub so please let me know if something doesn’t work / how I can improve it.
And let me know what live streams you use it for!

Edit: I’ll work on putting together instructions for Windows machines this week for everyone.
Thanks for all the interest!
I’m not sure about any of you, but I love collecting different versions of albums, such as their original release in my country, the Japan release with bonus tracks, anniversary editions, etc. The issue is that when I want to put all of these into Plex to have any bonus content available, Plex makes it really hard to do so. Songs that I’ve purposefully put into separate folders will appear together just because they’re under “the same album” (which is technically true I guess), there’s no way to split them apart like Movies and it doesn’t make it obvious where audio files you’ve put in that album’s folder go if they don’t appear in Plex.
This rant is fueled by me trying to import my different versions of Daft Punk’s Random Access Memories, including: Drumless, Anniversary, Japan and original release editions (although as I’ve said, I have other albums with different editions too). It’ll keep mixing the …
Has anyone else ever experienced this? I run a plex server in my home. And I have an extensive library of blu-rays that i rip. I encode them all I make sure they have the right audio - the whole shebang.
But time and time again I will bump into a movie that seemingly just vanishes from the library. Also not in my folders. It’s all stored locally on my DAS. But for instance I have the Alien franchise. Lo’ and behold I see that Alien is missing. The rest are there. But just Alien is gone. I know i ripped it. I remember loading the disc, seeing the preview file. BUT GONE. And this has happened time and time again.
I don’t let anyone who has access have the ability to delete the files. There doesn’t seem to be any storage option in windows enabled that would automatically delete stuff for space. Even then it should still show a log of whats been deleted if that did exist (or that could be wishful thinking).
Im just PERPLEXED. I mean that as a pun but also the …
Hey, I’ve been pulling my hair out for a couple of days now, so I decided to throw in the towel and ask for help.
I have a linux server running OpenMediaVault. Docker containers are all spun up with docker-compose from /opt
.
Media folder is placed in /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-string/media/{tv|movies|music}
. Now, this is where I believe I made my first mistake (years ago when I put the server together). The parent “folder” of the media folder isn’t a folder at all. It’s a disk, right? By that folder being a disk, I can’t successfully assign a root folder in Radarr settings, when I try to enter the path /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-string/
as root folder in Radarr settings, I get the error: Unable to add root folder | Folder '/data/' is not writable by user 'hotio'
.
docker-compose.yml for reference https://pastebin.com/Jukn7cmj
I understand the fix here might be to move my whole media
folder another level down, but I didn’t want to go ahead without …
I have sonarr, radarr, and plex setup on my computer without docker. Is there any app for requesting that does not require docker? As overseerr is the typical recommendation, but I can not set it up without docker unfortunately.
Solved: I installed Ombi as suggested: https://github.com/Ombi-app/Ombi which is very light on windows
I’ve been using the TRaSH CFs extensively to maximize quality, as well as the quality settings for each encoding type to limit size, but that still leaves a lot of wiggle room—as you all know, a given encoding/resolution can still vary widely in size. I realized what I really want is per-profile size targets, with the highest score possible given TRaSH CFs.
I’ve set up low/medium/high QPs, and I’m considering using the size CFs (which the TRaSH guides don’t ever really touch) to target per-episode file sizes. Before I go down that rabbit hole, does anyone else have any other suggestions?
I’m thinking about:
“Prestige” QP: unlimited filesize @ H.264 Bluray 1080p / merged web 1080p
“Popcorn” QP (medium, default): targets ~600MB–1.5GB/episode @ H.264 merged web 1080p/720p
“Rerun” QP (low, accepts x265): targets ~230MB–600mb/episode @ H.264⁄265 merged web 1080p/720p
I love the apps but I always forget what the colors mean. Would be cool if we had an option to move the key to the top of the page in the header or the left side below the menu options
I recently set up my instances for Sonarr and Radarr, and they have been working fine until today. Two of my shows’ episodes that downloaded are not getting imported. This issue seems to have occurred in the middle of downloading the shows because parts of the seasons are downloaded, imported, and properly showing in Sonarr.
I guessed it was a permissions issue, so I tried fixing it by changing all the instances with umask to 002 and also adjusting the settings in the Arr’s file management to match. I am extremely new to Unraid and permissions management, so if this is not the correct way to do it, please let me know.
Since that did not fix the problem, I decided to use the New Permissions tool on Unraid through the Tools tab on the share, following TRaSH’s guide. That did not work, so I decided to download the same episodes again, but the issue still persists.
Please note: I have periodically tried downloading other shows and their episodes on both instances after …
