I've sailed the high seas for a while starting with Emule, through MIRC, torrenting, mega(upload) and many more.
Lately I've been using a p4s service on plex but they kept having issues so I stopped it. I don't mind paying but I want
- the latest episodes of my content as it comes out
- great quality with little to no compression
- english subtitles, original voice (whether english, japanese...)
- 100% uptime.
I'm assuming my p4s service was not downloading new episodes by hand, so there must a (set of) OSS software to automatically download new episodes of a predefined set of TV shows / anime, add subtitles, and make it available as a plex server or similar no? I'm a software developer so not affraid to run a few docker containers on a local server
Sonarr with nzb360 to manage it. Completely hands-free, couldn't be easier to use once it's set up.
If you don't have your own hosting, search for "seedbox" hosting - there are plenty of great, relatively cheap options. I picked a hosting option which had the above apps already set up and ready to go, which made the whole thing seamless.
Instead of using a server, you can run Sonarr on your Windows desktop and have it provide the content directly to a local Plex.
can you link to who you use?
