I’ll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

The modularity of docker makes this great! I have a docker stack with overseerr, 2x sonarr, 3x radarr, 2x readarr, lidarr, unpackerr and sabnzbd. Another stack with nordvpn and qbittorrent. It’s so easy to setup and it becomes very powerful.
I have some users on Plex that simply do some requests on overseerr, I approve them, then everything gets downloaded automatically. They just have to wait for it to be available. I used to be suscribed to Netflix, not anymore since their offering dropped while their prices raised.
Why do you run multiple *arr containers? What can two or three do that one couldn’t?
Radarr/Sonarr can’t handle multiple versions of the same movie/episode, so a lot of people have a second instance for 4K movies (so they can have both a 1080p and a 4K version of the same movie). Also if you have a lot of anime it can be worth it to have a Sonarr instance configured just for that
The other reply is right!
This is probably a dumb question but how do you run Sonarr twice?
Also, where do you get your French content? I’m having a hell of a time finding places
Lack of knowledge isn’t dumb, it’s just lack of knowledge. You can’t know everything.
I run 2 docker containers, named slightly differently (my setup is a bit more complicated within a stack though). Then I map a different port for the FR one so it doesn’t conflict. Of course, you need a different config volume. Then once the container is up, you can I link my FR sonarr to my EN one. So when I request something on my EN Sonarr, it also adds it to my FR Sonarr.
I also do that with movies, but for HD and 4K instead. I manage multi-language differently.
I’ll PM you for my source of French content.
Thank you for the detailed response. This might be the shove I need to look into docker haha.
I would appreciate a pm with a source - thank you!
I don’t know overseerr yet, sounds like it might be useful for my gf 🤔 Also never heard of unpacker, gotta check out the advantages of that.
I only recently finally got into docker and it’s amazing. Good thing I spent the extra bucks for the NAS that supports it back when I bought it some years ago. Maybe I’ll switch Sonarr/Readarr/Readarr and Prowlarr to docker too, so that I can manage everything the same way.
I was so close to going legal and signing up for Netflix, and then all the other platforms started to pop up and the content got split over all those. I just want one platform for all my favourite shows and movies. It should be shared like with Spotify/Google-/Apple-/YouTube-Music, not the exclusive chaos that it is now.
Unpackerr is good to unpack torrent files when they are multiple rar files for example. It seems to do its job, I have less failed imports and less manual intervension.
I used to be legit. Then Netflix started to cancel my shows, they raised the price and other platforms started to pop up. I said fuck it and went the way of piracy. I’m legit with gaming and music since there are convenient solutions for those.
You are my hero. Can this power be learned or do you have to run a story arc for some internet wizard?
This can be learned. I did this through trial and error and basically learning about docker. I’m now proud of my setup but I sanked a lot of hours into it.
