My current setup at home to automate TV:
Windows 10 Hyper-V Host:
Win10 VM 1: uTorrent + Jackett + Sonarr + Extractnow
Win10 VM 2: Plex
I want to move the torrents to the seedbox, but keep the automation on TV & storage local. So my question is what is the right combination of tools to do so?
Currently I have a Feralhosting Seedbox but am willing to switch providers if I need to.
hi @Badger
if you wanna move torrents to seedbox I recommend btsync its much faster than filezilla even you can move torrent from one seedbox to another one via btsync
What about the rest of the configuration? In other words, I could write a quick guide for setting up the 6 applications that work together to make this work if it were a local installation but I'm new to Seedboxes.
To be specific, I'm used to running it on full automatic. I add the show to Sonarr, the torrent client that's configured there will automatically monitor/download the show, Extractnow will automatically extract the rar files & then sonarr will notice the new video file & move it to the NAS where the media is located, Plex would then notice the new media & it'd show up. There would be zero intervention.
1. Is it possible to keep using Sonarr locally & just setup the connection to the seedbox torrent client, then sync the files back to where it would normally download them using a local client? I get connection errors so maybe not.
2. If not, I could use Sonarr on the seedbox & btsync like you suggested to download them, use my existing extractnow to extract them, but then will I have to sort manually I wonder..
Also, when I mentioned "the right combination of tools", I'm talking an overall setup guide. Since I'm new to seedboxes an analogy of what I'm used to would allow me to get setup & running within an hour instead of a week of fumbling around.
Here's a basic outline of what I mean:
Windows 10 Auto-Torrent guide for TV management on existing Windows installation with VPN
1. Install Torrent client - then show recommended settings
2. Install Jackett - show example of login, use.
3. Install Sonarr - Config description for client & indexer
4. Install Extractnow - pointing out Sonarr's download handling doesn't do rar, Folder monitoring setup
5. Connectivity summary - show specifically how to connect & 1 example of each task you need to perform to get it working
Being new to seedboxes, an analog to this would save a lot of time & frustration - know of any?
I am close...
1. Seedbox - Sonarr, Jackett, BTSync & ruTorrent with unpacking enabled
2. BTSync to Plex Library in matching folders at home
The problem remaining is that I can't figure out how to stop BTSync from deleting files on my local network if I clean up on the Seedbox without removing the shared folder altogether first, then re-adding it. Maybe I need different software so I can specify not to delete?
