I see , so your downloads don’t get stuck like that most of the time?

That torrent has no seeds. The column seeds says 0(0).

Some torrent terminology: Seeds are clients that say they have the full download, they make the system work.

Peers are clients that are trying to download, that one shows 1(2). That implies there are two clients, and you are connected to one of them. They may also have none of the download yet, and without a seed, neither of you will.

I see , Thanks!

Well, no. If they do because I’m looking for something more obscure, cleanuparr removes the dead torrent on its own. Check your indexers in prowlarr. You probably need to add some more to get decent results that have more seeders.

Thanks just setup cleanuparr ! it’s really amazing

Glad to hear it! I’d also recommend using a blacklist file to filter out file formats that you know shouldn’t be there if you’re downloading movies/tv shows. In public trackers it sometimes happens that there are malicious and have a .exe virus with the name of the movie lr latest episode. Using a blacklist you’re able to easily filter that out.

Don’t worry i use Arch BTW . so those are like cute harmless puppies for me lol

They might be, but they still block the download of the actual episode or movie you were trying to get :)

:( true

Btw, Sonarr was recently updated and you can now create a Releases profile that automatically blocks malicious torrents! The whole process of setting up the arr stack can be a bit much at first, but once you get it going it’s super satisfying to see everything working :)

Thanks for sharing ! While we are still on the topic , I already have Sonarr and Radarr setup but i don’t use them right now. I need to get myself the proton paid tier to enjoy port forwarding and maybe faster , and more reliable downloads .

Infact i am so impatient of how long it takes to download one album from lidarr , that i made my own music downloader for now.

Why is it faster? Where does it download from? Also did you make it or did AI “make” it?

Personally, I just use Soulseek for music. You can integrate it into the arr stack, but I don’t mind handling music manually.

It searches music from youtube as you saw there in the fields there are youtube links .

then it uses yt dl to download songs and uses simple python script to embed metadata from music brainz

It’s so simple even a todler can do it bro :)

So AI? I will not be touching that.

Also, I download music to have high quality files that I transcode for other stuff. Youtube is far from a high quality source.
