  • I mean I’ll give it a try, their support flat out said they don’t support port forwarding for WireGuard configs which is why I never used the feature, but if it’s truly using UPnP than it may be worth a shot!

    As for router setups, the Port Forwarding feature is unfortunately not yet officially tested and supported, therefore, I will be unable to provide any specific steps for setting it up and creating a port mapping on your Asus router, nor guarantee that this specific scenario would work as intended. Our team will consider testing it on router setups as well in the future, however, at this moment, I am unable to provide any specific time-frames or further details. I apologize for the inconvenience that this may cause you.

    Edit: https://protonvpn.com/support/port-forwarding-manual-setup#wireguard looks promising!

  • Maybe one day ProtonVPN will fix their port-forwarding for their configuration files, I haven’t seen anyone else complain about this and their support is oblivious that this function even exists.

    For people wondering the Learn More link just tells you what port forwarding does.

  • Radarr (Movies) / Sonarr (Shows/Series) - You search for a movie/show, you hit the “I want that” button, it does the searching through Torrents or Usenet, once it find a match it send a signal to your download client to begin downloading, once done Radarr/Sonarr will take that file and neatly manage it for your media viewer (Jellyfin) essentially automating the entire process.

    There is quite a bit of configuration needed for things start to flow smoothly but relatively straight forward.

  • So if I’m not mistaken the route I took was to import my Spotify library to Lidarr > Let it freely torrent/download in the background (this can take a long time especially if what you’re torrenting isn’t very popular!) > setup the Spotify Import plugin for Jellyfin and let that automatically make your playlist an such however, in my experience this worked well for maybe 40% of my playlists (roughly 800 rap songs + 200 rock/metal) and the rest I downloaded with ytdlp and manually added in to my library, which sucked because it was so tedious but once I got it done I never had to do it again.

    I got about 15k songs in my library all together but only listen to my playlists.

  • Firm believer in Legitflix.

  • everyone's pretty much on board with burning Harry Potter books.

    No they aren’t.

  • VPN to a nice safe country like Switzerland.

    Look into selfhosting the Servarr stack along side QBitTorrent, pick a media player such as Plex or Jellyfin. Easy free streaming.

  • I didn’t even think of this! I’ll give it a try, thank you!

  • Selfhosted @lemmy.world

    Force Lidarr to re-manage media?

  • Use a VPN.

    Do not recommend people to use random free VPN’s. You should pick your VPN provider carefully as all your traffic will flow through their servers.

  • Just out of curiosity, why bother running 4 instances of qBit for the various *arrs? Why not just use automatic torrent management, and have the different categories download to different folders? My *arrs are all using a single instance of qBit, and each service simply uses a different category with a different download path.

    I started to become frustrated with the queue on a single qbit instance, I would set the max total of active torrents to 15; 10 active downloads and 5 seeding and it starts out fine but eventually those 10 active downloads all became stalled.

    The amount of times I have had to open qbit to just move stuff down the queue so other things could download was obnoxious so I made 3 other instances for each *arr and it’s felt easier to manage.

    Proton VPN claims to offer Port-Forwarding for their Wireguard router configs however, when I attempt to do it they don’t display the active port anywhere on their website.

  • Asus WRT Routers are great however, it doesn’t support certain Registrars for DDNS like Cloudflare so I had to install Merlin Firmware, ssh into the router and then manually configure a cron-job so that my A records stay up to date with my WAN.

    Thankfully somebody already been down this path a posted the documentation which made things 100x easier.

    Kind of a crude & simplified way of putting my setup but I think it gets the point across.

  • I bought an 13th Gen Asus Nuc with an i7 running Debian headless and a hard-disk bay for my setup, previously all I was using was a Rasp Pi 4, I honestly don’t know if my Jellyfin instance is utilizing the CPU’s iGPU not really sure how to tell.

  • Been using Jellyfin along side the ‘ARR suite for about a year now, my biggest issue is with Subtitles.

    On the IOS/iPadOS apps of Jellyfin subtitles seem to prevent media from streaming, tried utilizing Bazaar but have had no luck.

  • Hm, in my current state I’ve configured my router to essentially route all bandwidth to the closest server my VPN provider offers. I utilize other tunnels for bypassing censorship and or torrenting.

    So far the year has been solid, I think I’m going to keep chucking away down this path since it does reduce resources on my server.

    Should I run a VPN client side as well?
