Unfortunately I can’t be of much specific help, my setup is pretty specific to my NAS and my content comes from usenet so it’s a little bit different.

But the first thing to do is bring it up in stages, starting with running one workflow. Say movies because they are a bit simpler. Run your search from inside Radarr and check the logs, you should get a good idea of where it’s breaking. Once Radarr is working as expected and placing the processed download in the right place you can move the same settings to Sonarr. After those are working then try running them from Jellyseerr.

If you get stuck post the error message you’re getting, without that we can’t help.


Sounds like BlueRay Remux and Web Downloads are what you should be looking for. Radarr and Sonarr shine at this.

High quality audio can consume a great deal of disk space, but it’s probably going to unavoidable if you’re looking for releases with multiple audio and subtitle tracks available. I would not exactly call this rare anymore, but it’s definitely not the default so you want to wait until after you have search and download working across the board.

The only thing I didn’t see on your list is any type of library optimization. I kind of gave up on it myself because it’s faster for me to just redownload something than recompress it, and that’s their major use case… but you might find utility in removing additional audio or subtitle tracks, or to rearrange defaults.

Handling additional data streams like subtitles and multiple languages is not quite as mature, hardware players often have strong preferences. Something to keep in mind as your planning out your setup.


5 points for the awk command.

10 points for a perl script.

I fear none of these are exactly gems… but they were definitely not available at the store:

Abducted By The Daleks/Daloids (2005) - Basically a softcore Dr. Who knockoff that appears to have been made with actual BBC props.

Probably already well known around here: Kung Fury (2015) is a very cool 80’s style short film. If somehow you have not seen it, please do so now. I think it’s a free download.

TV

Shock and Awe: The Story of Electricity (2011) is a BBC 3-Part series covering early pioneers/inventors from the Bagdad Battery up through modern power grids.

Speed with Guy Martin (2013) is another good BBC miniseries. This is just kind of fun, each episode is separate challenge to set a speed record with a unique form of transportation ranging from cycling endurance to turbo charged racing vans.
