My entertainment experience is so much better than my friends' because of piracy. I use torrents, and store my media and it's made my life so great since I got into this a little over a year ago. I've seen shows that none of my friends have seen. Lately I've been into police dramas and there's an incredible series from France called Le Bureau des Légendes, which is phenomenal. There's one from the UK that I just finished called Line of Duty that was also great. I saw an Estonian period film that is entertaining called Apteeker Melchior -- it was freeleech for a short while, so I grabbed it.

My friends who pay for Netflix, Disney+ and all the the other streaming channels watch the all same garbage TV. I can see that too, but I get access to these other amazing films and shows. I've not even mentioned the books, audiobooks and music.

The pirate's life is a great life and it's the life for me. Arrrr.

qBit does delete the file from my physical drive (direct attached storage, raid5). But won't update the free space in the WebUI. The discrepency is over 1TB, so I'd like to address this if someone can help me.

Some info:

• qBit v.5.0.1, docker, from linuxserver.io
• Ubuntu 24.04
• Automatic Management Mode is checked
• Torrent content removing mode: Delete files permanently

I can't get radarr to add https://www.imdb.com/title/tt27430909/ to the library.

Searching with imdb:tt27430909. When I try other imdb ids, it works fine. But this one won't work. Anyone know how to manually bring this into my libary.

FWIW, I actually bought this title off of his website. It is really inexpensive, so if you can afford it, I recommend buying it.

I’d like to prioritize bandwidth for trackers where ratio is hard and de-prioritize trackers where almost everything is freeleech. Is there a way to do this?

I didn't know this existed until recently so I just wanted to share. Jellyfin recently began supporting syncing your lyrics to the music in Jellyfin, natively! It is insanely easy to set it up, too. Basically, the way it works is you need a specific filetype *.lrc (that is basically a timestamped text file) which already has the lyrics and timestamps in it. You give that lrc file the same name as your audio file and Jellyfin will automatically read that as the lyrics. It is that easy.

You can get lrc files a bunch of different ways but all of them involve retrieving them from the same database, lrc.net.

1. You can go to the website and manually pull them (probably time consuming though).
2. There is an official package for mass-downloading these lrc files. Don't expect 100% accuracy but it's pretty damn good, maybe an error rate of 10ish percent. This is what I use.
3. The Jellyfin team is working on an official plugin, but caveat emptor, it is still a WIP.
4. There is this pretty slick script for MusicBrainz Picard. I've tried it and it works well if you want to use tags. Reading timestamps within the lyrics tag isn't supported by Jellyfin yet, but it probably will be in future releases.

Imho, this is a really big feature and I hope 3rd party clients start supporting it soon! If you know of any 3p audio clients that support synced lyrics, please comment them!

I know how to do it on a bare-metal installation. But on the Docker version, I can't figure out how to create a brand new torrent. Can someone help me out?

I'm looking to download a number of educational youtube videos for future reference. Looking for a reliable way to download videos. OS is Ubuntu. FF extensions and docker containers all good. I don't really want to install an executable on bare metal unless it is a flatpak.

My goal is for the downloaded videos to be accessed locally via jellyfin. Jellyfin is already sorted.

Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

These groups do most mainstream shows with similar settings so when should you choose one over the other?

Image is from the Gnome Software Updater. JF MP is installed via Flatpak on Linux. Can anyone tell me what is going on?

If so, how do you configure that?
