  • Problems with iPlayer downloads/conversions

    Jump

  • Yup, it was an ffmpeg issue. I tried ffmpeg-batch to download and didn't have any problems at all. However, I only just noticed the resolution on iPlayer SUCKS! I mean it's 720p when the originals were 480p and it's worse than the Xvid copies I have now. Ugh! LOL Oh well.

  • Video Pirate Question

    Jump

  • Thank you for your input and understanding my situation but I've been fiddling around so much I've haven't gotten even one series or movie encoded. I'm about ready to just pirate a commercial product and see if that will do what I want it to but I probably still wouldn't find a product that would do everything I want, I'm afraid. Thanks again for your time & input!

  • I think that's part of my problems I have new stuff and stuff waaayyy over 10 years old and I'm trying to find a "sweet spot" for everything and I don't think that's possible. Yeah, I know what you mean about the additional language, audio, etc. tracks especially in stuff I get from Nyaa. I tend to batch demux a lot of that out before I even start messing around with re-encoding the file. Thanks for your input!

  • Thank you for the input and reference material. I'll give it a look-through and appreciate your time.

  • Thank you, this is VERY helpfuly information! As I mentioned in another reply the ffmpeg front-end I use FastFlix only allows bitrate or CQ encoding when using the VCEEnc Hardware encoder for AMD so your information is noted and very appreciated!

  • Video Pirate Question

    Jump

  • Thank you so much for your input. I'm so glad someone understands my point of view and doesn't keep telling me DON'T REENCODE. I know that but we do what we have to when we're not made of $$$. So, you're saying in re-encoding to let it select it's bitrate and use 2-pass and be done with it. That's actually helpful because FastFlix will only allow CQP or Bitrate encoding when using the AMD hardware acceleration VCEEnc. Again, thanks for the advice!

  • I understand about reencoding and I've gotten a lot of flak about that from a lot of people but as I mentioned above it's more of a space issue with me also. I appreciate the mention of groups to look to as that helps much. Thanks for your input!

  • Thank you for the input! I'm unsure what aq-mode is but I'm sure it's somewhere in FastFlix. There's tons of settings in it that I need to look over. The default CRF for HEVC in that program is 22 and I don't know if I should go higher, lower or what but I appreciate your insight.

  • Yeah, you hit the nail on the head. I only have two 2Tb drives and they are about full so I'm looking to downsize my files. Someone recommended buying a USB hub and several 16Tb Seagate drives to accomodate but I'm not sure if that's the best option.

  • I started with Emby as Jellyfin seemed a little bit daunting to me. I've already got qBittorent setup. Thank you for your input!

  • Thank you! I don't use Linux but I will try to map it into a Windows version. It looks very comprehensive and like it covers all the bases I want. Appreciate it.

  • I've really just needed to know how to start with the basics and grow from there IF I wanted to not because I thought I HAD to which I did. Now you've clarified that it's really not a necessity that is a load off my mind. Yeah, I'm probably gonna segment my videos a little more than usual as so many of my shows are Anime or Toku that have season after season of shows but I get what you are trying to say. Thank you so much for your input!

  • Hey, thanks for all the info especially which files to backup for Jellyfin in case of data loss. That will save me a big headache. Not using Linux, gonna be Windows for me as that's what my desktop is. Docker is probably a good ways down the road. I need to get Jellyfin just right and add all the plug-ins I might want plus get Sonarr, etc. setup also but thanks for all the information. Appreciate it!

    Jump

  • Wow, thanks for the incredible amount of information! I really appreciate it. It seems like everyone does something different and it gets to be a headache trying to find the way easiest for me. Yeah, I get what you're saying about Anime and Toku which is a LOT of what I'm downloading. It's a real pain, believe me. Plus, I DO want to seed as the torrent's themselves are like 1.5Tb (seriously) and I don't have the storage to make a copy of the data and rename. Anyway, again thanks for the input. Wish me luck!

  • I don't have all the *arrs setup. I'm lucky to have gotten Jellyfin setup and working correctly. LOL But, I've heard of other people doing some type of *arr backup so if they lose their video, they just go back into the *arrs and do something to get everything downloading again. It's all a bit over my head.

    I'm not really worried as much about the cloud right now as just finding some good hardware to store the data on and cloud comes as last step. Many people seem to endorse BackBlaze's yearly PC plan so I guess I need to take a look there.

    Yup, that's what I've heard. Don't ever buy more than 1 HDD at the same time from the same place at the same time as you could multiple bad HDDs if there happens to be a "bad batch" so I hear ya' there. Thanks for the input!

  • Video, mainly. I have a ton of torrented video and video I need to rip and I'm trying to setup the hardware before starting on the all the processing. Yeah, a lot of it I could redownload ore reprocess but much of it has very few seeders and could disappear at any time so I'd like to keep all I can locally plus it takes sooo long to re-rip 100s of BluRays. Ok, I'll take a look at the Personal Computer/Flat Fee option for BackBlaze and see what it's all about. Thanks!

  • Not familiar with Tailscale but look at Filen. They have an excellent rating on TrustPilot. I don't know why they aren't in the major search engines. Maybe too new a service. Don't know but good luck to you.
