Yeah, I saw that. I’m not great with the command line so I was hoping there was another way.


The docker version doesn’t have the “create torrent” feature included in the regular version.


How do I create a torrent with qBittorrent in Docker
I have qBittorrent in a docker container. Looking to create a torrent. All the tutorials I see are for qBittorrent running on bare metal. Does anyone know how I do this? My container has access to the file.

I believe you but Twitch does use SSAI in some geographic areas and uBO is unable to block SSAI based ads


I think it’s dependent on whether the ads are served server-side or client-side. Server side ad insertion isn’t something that uBO can protect against. Twitch is a good example of this.


Self hosted voice assistant
I'd love to find a selfhosted voice assistant to use on my phone, computer, etc. iOS compatibility is a plus. Does anyone know of anything out there that could fit the bill?

What is the upside to specifying the qbit container network_mode as service:gluetun in stead of container:gluetun. I read that it should be tied to the container, not the service but maybe that’s not correct?


Your system is really creative. Especially the 1-way syncthing with disappearing files on the host vm after the audiobook gets returned. That’s pretty cool tbh.

So I used Firefox and logged into mylibrary. overdrive .com and then checkout/play an audiobook in the browser. While it’s playing went to More ToolsWeb developer toolsNetwork and filter by Media. The mp3s pop up there. Copy/paste the super long url of the mp3 media file into a new browser window and download. When you’ve finished downloading it, play it locally on your machine and your audio player will tell you how long the file lasts. Then click to the corresponding chapter to download the next mp3 file in the grouping. So for example, if the first mp3 lasts 1hr5 min, look at the audiobook and you’ll see that Chapter 5 ends at 1hr5min. So you click on Chapter 6 in your browser to begin downloading the next mp3 file. Repeat as needed until you’ve downloaded all the files in the book. I usually rename the files File 1, File 2 and so on so I know the order. The book I did yesterday had a total of 3 mp3 files.

Then you can put those mp3s into an M4B container with the proper chapter breaks (chapter breaks are conveniently timestamped in the audiobook web UI). You can screenshot and refer back to it later. If you want, put in some cover art into that container too :)


Can you describe what you’re talking about? I’m not sure I’m doing that either.


Language prefs?
Using Sonarr/Prowlarr/Bazaar/qBitty to download. Attempting to pull "The Bureau" (Le Bureau des légendes) which, if you haven't seen it, is a great show and you should watch it. In America, it's on the Sundance Channel. They have an english version there and I'm trying to get that version. These are my language settings in Sonarr [[Pic](https://imgur.com/pPgHCb9)]. I got Russian/German for Season 1 [[Pic](https://imgur.com/neNZ7Xg)]. I got only the original french w/o subtitles for season 2 [[Pic](https://imgur.com/MxsyilK)]. Can someone help me sort out my config so I get what I'm looking for?

I’ve also got a system for ripping audiobooks from Libby

Woahh, what? I’d love to learn how you do this. VLC? Where did you learn how to do this? Is there a write-up that you might point me to? Idc if it is complicated and technical. I’d love to learn how to do this.

Edit: Nevermind. I figured it out. Thanks for letting me know this was possible. I had no idea. Audiobooks are hard to find so this is fantastic. Easy to bind those mp3’s into a single m4b with chapter markers. I’ll do that from now on. This is great!


Do you run OSMC in a container on your pi or as the base image installed with the pi imager?


but now a whole bunch of people are going to stay the hell away from OST paid subs

I have a use case similar to OP’s with my father, and was looking at a solution for subtitles. I was looking at their site yesterday. I guarantee you I will stay away from them now.



Is it possible to have just one DB across all services
I'm pretty new to the self hosting thing but I'm enjoying it a lot and want to go a bit further down the proverbial rabbit hole. I'm looking at a bunch of services and they *all* require a DB, usually a MySQL DB. It seems counterintutitive to have 20 MySQL databases each in its own Docker container. So is there a way to have one DB across most of my services? (I realize that Nextcloud and other bigger items should have a dedicted DB.) How would I set up a shared DB in a `docker-compose` file?
