Ah, fair point. I don't use torrents, my media comes from usenet, so that doesn't need to factor into my thinking.
My (overly?) Complex setup does allow me to resort to torrents as a last resort, but that happens on another machine outside my home network and gets synchronised into my home via a one-way syncthing share, so even on the rare occasion I have to resort to torrents I can leave it on that server seeding for a few weeks or months.
Could Snipe it work for you? https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-snipe-it/
It looks like an asset management tool. The description copied and pasted from above reads:Snipe-it makes asset management easy. It was built by people solving real-world IT and asset management problems, and a solid UX has always been a top priority. Straightforward design and bulk actions mean getting things done faster
I've just recently started using tdarr to convert all of my media to x265on 14/02 and so far I've saved 4.02 TB of what was 28.12TB media collection. (The number isn't a true reflection though because new episodes and shows have been added to that library since I started)
I'm letting tdarr manage the conversion process and once up and running meant that my NAS, desktop, my NUC and a mini pc are all plodding through and converting when I'm not using them for other things.
If you are worried about the disk space being taken and have some CPU time you can devote to the conversion process then I'd suggest it's worth looking into tdarr.
One time I ran out of disk space due to it having created since 200gb log files (not sure why that happened) then another time I think I broke something whilst moving from I've got to another. I can't remember what else happened to break my instances but it was always big enough there I couldn't restore it to working it after hours if work, so if just export the vaults from everyone's machine, nuke it, start again and try to learn how I broke it so I didn't do it again.
I believe I was the problem for most of them except the massive log files one, but still, it was probably my fault as the things usually are. (Guess whose wife has them well trained at accepting the blame 😋)
I pay my $10 license and a personal organisation license for bitwarden because I like their platform but after yet another irrecoverable loss of data (partly my fault for not sufficiently backing it up) I've moved over to vaultwarden for my family's password management.
I don't think I'll stop supporting bitwarden even if I'm not using their platform directly though as I do like the service I've had from them for something like 4 or 5 years now.
I don't have easy access to my torrent client at the moment, how much disk space are we talking about here? Tens of GB, hundreds, multiple TB?
Edit: ooft, that's a hefty chunk of space indeed, the first one I looked at was 400gb, the second was >4tb. Sadly I can't contribute that kind of space on my torrent box.
I was going to say that the big downside to that would be a lack of any kind of version control, but I guess if you need that you can always use git and just commit changes there and (optionally) push them to a repository somewhere.
Interesting, I'll try again from my desktop when I get back home again. I guess it's possible that it's my phone that's the problem.
Ah, I see, then my apologies for making assumptions. If you're a Usenet person then things like drunken slug or Ninja central assist to have a bunch of adult content on them.
For torrents, you'll hopefully be able to find content on various generalist torrent trackers or a few specialist ones that primarily deal with that kind of content.
I get the impression that you're new to the whole *arr set of applications.
Your indexer is the torrent site (or Usenet indexer) you're asking whisparr to search through for your torrents/NZBs.
Take a look here for some pretty good documentation on how it all works: https://wiki.servarr.com/whisparr/quick-start-guide#indexers
I'm not so sure about that, as I'm getting an error whenever I try to hook jacket up to the account I just created.
I'll post an issue to the jacket issue log when I get home though after trying again I case there's a delay in creating an account and the passkey becoming usable.
I'm going to choose not to answer that for two reasons...
But yes I'm in a position where I was more willing to pay for the power than I was to buy additional storage space as I'm hitting the top of what I can do without significant expense.
