Synology NAS (with SynoCommunity) + Transmission + Sonarr/Radarr/Prowlarr/etc + Kodi
It's amazing, the new episodes or movies just show up right there in the media center, with correct metadata, ready to be watched.
I've been doing basically the same thing on a QNAP NAS slowly as I find time to learn.
My current setup is NAS with a docker running Jellyfin (Plex alternative that is FOSS and also better in my opinion). I setup a reverse-proxy via https to Jellyfin on the NAS.
I have VPN+Prowlarr+Radarr+Sonarr+Lidarr+qBittorrent setup on my PC and uploading locally to the NAS for Jellyfin.
I have a domain purchased and using DDNS to point the url to my IP, though that doesn't appear to be working properly right now.
So as is, it works quite well at least on my local network, but when I find the time I'll get the domain working so I can properly login to Jellyfin remotely with it. Then next up is moving the torrent setup onto the NAS in it's own docker stack.
My NAS also has two physical network interfaces so I'm also going to setup the other one to be exclusively a VPN connection so I can let different docker stacks use different network interfaces. (VPN for torrent docker stack and non-VPN for remoting into the NAS or something. I'm not sure yet.)
Look into jellyseerr. It's a really nice way to add content and to let others add content.
Jellyseer is great even though im the only one using it in my house, the ui is much nicer than radarr/sonarrs for downloading and seeing trending films and tv
I seriously need to learn all of this stuff. For years I've just been doing the same thing. Turn on my VPN, find the movie or show I want on whatever torrent site, download it with qBittorent and then hook my laptop up to my receiver and play it with VLC.
20 some years and I'm still doing it that way, except that I use Plex so I can watch stuff on the TV. I use Prowlarr once in a great while if I'm having a hard time finding something but I don't DL anywhere near as much as I used to.
Yeah I've been doing the same way for so long and honestly I don't have any problems other than the couple of times I forgot to enable the VPN and got a slap on the wrist from my ISP. The shows I like to watch are spread out across so many services that it would cost me a fortune to subscribe to them all, so I do use eztv a lot and before that RARBG (RIP).
I'm disabled and on a fixed income and there's no way I can afford 4 or 5 streaming services. I don't even watch that much other than an occasional series like Silo and a movie once in a while. I think a lot more stuff is tracked now than it used to be(I even got hit for an older game) and it's just not worth it to try without a VPN.
Silo was really good! Can't wait for season 2. I got hot for downloading Pretty In Pink for my wife. Hahaha!
Never saw Pretty in Pink but enjoyed Molly Ringworm in The Breakfast Club. I also have a Kindle and am on the 3rd book in the Silo series. The other thing about e-books is that even bestsellers aren't tracked by anyone. There are nowhere near as many books on various sites as there are movies and TV shows, but you can still find just about anything.
