Sonarr still the best IMHO And radar ofc.
The others 'are meh, stopped using them in favor or other ways.
What are some other ways?
slsks is good for music, but it's not as automatic as lidarr (which is broken anyway)
And for books / audiobooks I think manually with telegram and/or plain old torrents is the only way. Readarr again is just broken and unable to manage books and audiobooks.
And Audiobookshelf is an amazing audiobooks and podcast playback platform that you can self-host.
you can hook slskd into lidarr with a script called soularr so it automatically grabs all your shit
To be fair, i have a paid Spotify account and occasionally sync my playlists using Spotizer. I have long removed lidarr because it's pretty bad experience overall anyway. Slskd is there for all the other music needs.
There's chaptarr that is in development as a replacement for readarr though I don't think there is a public download for it yet.
What happened to lidarr is it not supported anymore?
Lidarr is still very much supported and the issue is being actively worked. The only people bitching about it are entitled users who demand the free software be fixed and maintained on their schedules instead of that of the volunteer devs who have lives of their own.
I don't use Lidarr, but I've read that the team has been having issues over the past few weeks with its metadata server, which can't be run locally (as of right now, anyway) and is required for parsing and fetching metadata. So, essentially, the auto-tagging and search systems are non-functional.
I think it's only supposed to be temporary, but I'm sure it's been frustrating a lot of users and I've seen that some people are switching to alternatives or just downloading/tagging songs manually again.
Lidarr uses musicbrainz as the primary metadata source and mb changed the format of the data given by their api. They are posting details and updates here:
For plain ebooks there’s a Calibre plugin that integrates Anna’s Archive as a store. Requires a paid account but works okay in my limited experience.
for non-audio e-books I always find everything on zlib
I assumed OP is after some kind of media manager with integrated download capabilities and Zlib doesn’t have anything similar as far as I know.
Oh right, I just download via zlib and import into Calibre, but I guess that's a more manual operation
Chaptarr on the way, readarr with rreading-glasses works great for now though.
Ah. Know I get it I thought you used something else for tv and movies . Thanks
Not as popular but there are other apps that do TV automation, SickChill and Medusa for example are still active forks of the old SickBeard/SickRage software.
There are probably others I'm not thinking of right this second, nowadays people mostly prefer using the *arr stack for automation (Sonarr, Radarr, all the other arrs).
Couch Potato is pretty much dead, Radarr is the way to go.
Back in the day Sabnzbd was considered slow and inefficient so Nzbget was usually recommended. These days both are pretty much indistinguishable performance-wise and Sabnzbd seems to get more active development.
If my memory is correct, back when I was using Usenet, content got taken down really fast. Has that changed?
That’s still the case so automation + multiple providers is still the way to go. This guy here makes Usenet provider maps so that you can figure out what combination will work the best for you: https://gnu.gl/users/rexum/statuses/114789594488827582
For TV/movies:
Sonarr
Radarr
SABnzbd
