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.

stop manually browsing torrent sites! You're wasting your time.

Download qBittorrent. Download Jackett. Configure Jackett to work inside qBittorrent. You now have a way to search hundreds of trackers all at once within seconds and find literally anything you want.

I've tried just about every type of automated system Sonarr, Radarr fully integrated with usenet and my libraries etc.

After a while I realised I quite enjoy doing things manually. I get to vet the content a little before I grab it, a bit like going to the video store.

You should check out Prowlarr, its like jackett, but integrates better into sonarr/radarr

[–] huojtkeg@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Prowlarr has a prettier UI but the torrent sites they support are maintained by Jackett. It noone gives credit, at some point Jackett won't be maintained and Prowlar neither.

Disclaimer: I'm qBittorrent, Jackett, Flaresolverr and Bazarr developer.

Hey thanks for your work. QBT and Jackett are super stable and well done.

Damn, I'm huge fan of yours. Using qBbittorent, Jacket, Flarsolverr and Bazarr in docker. Thanks for your work.

But I never managed to get Jackett plugin to work x)

It has limitations, but qBittorrent is used by 40M users aprox and we are only 3-5 active developers. Managing the open issues don't let us time to work on new features...

Thanks for the link. I've been following these instructions from start. Looks like it's searching for a while, but ends up saying "Jackett: connection error getting indexer list!"

Who needs new features when the most important ones are working perfectly anyway :)

I have all of these programs running on raspberry pi, including Flood (mobile friendly UI for qBittorrent, also supports Deluge), and plex media server. It can't be easier to watch movies and tv shows that way.

[–] ShakyPerception@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Are they all running on the Pi, or just the torrenting tools?

[–] debeluhar@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Everything is running on Pi. But I have Raspberry Pi 4 with 4GB of ram. Actually I have Raspberry Pi 400, which is basically 4GB variant of Raspberry Pi 4, with slightly overclocked CPU and passive cooling, inside small keyboard, but I only got that because Raspberry Pi 4 was out of stock.

As a person who is not an advanced pirate, I'm reading the Jackett page and I have no idea what it is or how it works.

I was looking into this like last week but paused it because I'm an idiot who can't figure out which package to grab off their git lol. I think it is amdx64 but I have intel everything, I know it isn't arm though.

[–] IDatedSuccubi@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It's called amd64 because AMD invented the x86-64 processor instruction set, it works both on Intel and AMD
