May I ask what I should look for in the log files to detect this (and so I can configure fail2ban correctly)?

I also use a Hetzner Storagebox for my Jellyfin instance, I mount it via SMB. Works great.

For German stuff there is xrel.to

Usenet is the secret for German stuff. I have a German beginners guide: https://github.com/PCJones/usenet-guide

This looks great! Does it have support for multiple regions/languages like Overseerr?

I can give you info about a provider that offers full F1 TV access for 20-30€/year, I’ve been using it for a few years now. It’s great and you can easily stream it on any device. Send me a DM if you want more info

You might want to have a look at Usenet. Yes, it costs money but it’s such a premium experience compared to torrents and you don’t have to care about seeding etc at all

Just having a Jellyfin instance for family and friends. I have everything in h264 for maximum compatibility to avoid transcoding. All 12 seasons of Bones (2005) take up 800GB alone for example. A 1080P Remux movie takes 10-40GB

Really depends on your usage. I have a few Terrabytes of Usenet traffic every month so I’m glad I don’t have to use block accounts for that

Radarr/Sonarr can’t handle multiple versions of the same movie/episode, so a lot of people have a second instance for 4K movies (so they can have both a 1080p and a 4K version of the same movie). Also if you have a lot of anime it can be worth it to have a Sonarr instance configured just for that

They can work with other languages, but it can take a while to find a correct setup

fileleechers is a board and not an indexer though right? So you can’t add it to Sonarr and Radarr

Feel free to correct me, I don’t know a lot about them since they are invite only

I mixed up ombi and emby, sorry.

Whoops, I always mix up emby and ombi since I don’t use either of them. My bad!

Pick one: Ombi / Overseerr / Jellyserr

edit: fixed Ombi misspelling

If you are looking for German (or German + English dual language) content it can be very hard to find stuff on public torrent trackers and it’s pretty hard to get onto private German trackers - but don’t worry, there is a solution:

Usenet and the indexer sceneNZBs.com that specialises in German releases have got you covered!

If you want to automate the search for German Dual Language content using Radarr/Sonarr I made a guide (that also works for torrents too): https://github.com/PCJones/radarr-sonarr-german-dual-language

Short answer: no

Long answer: yes, but they are basically useless. Except for some indexers that cost money but also have a free plan where you are capped at like 5 downloads per day.

I already responded to you on reddit, but for Usenet you really don’t need a VPN, only for torrents. I also told you to just use Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr and SABnzbd but since you also want something to play the items definitely keep Jellyfin. I also recommend to keep Jellyseerr as it’s a great way to request and find new movies and shows.

I’ll paste my original response from reddit here just in case someone else is looking for the same thing:

Assuming you want to fully automate it by using Sonarr and Radarr you can use my fork of docker-media-center which has SabnZBD for Usenet downloads:

https://github.com/PCJones/docker-media-center

Sadly I haven’t got the time yet to update the documentation but if you know docker you should be able to figure it out, if not I’ll gladly help.

You’ll want to remove all services you don’t want from the docker compose file (so for a simple Usenet Setup you’ll only want Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, SabnZBD).

Important stuff missing from the documentation:

• the git clone link in the documentation is still pointing to the original repository, make sure to clone mine

• at some point docker will tell you that it can’t find the network global or local (one of these, I forgot which. But it’ll tell you) When that happens all you have to do is execute docker network create global (or local)

• after starting all services (especially SabnZBD) you’ll need to execute the file set_sabnzbd_hostname.sh once and then restart the SabnZBD container.

• In the sabnZBD Folder settings you’ll need to set the temp folder to data/temp (it doesn’t have to be temp, you can chose another name).

• In the sabnZBD Folder settings you’ll need to set the completed download folder to data/downloads

• In the sabnZBD Categories settings you’ll need to set the Folder/Path to data/downloads/radarr for movies and to data/downloads/sonarr for TV and anime

• you’ll have to add sabnZBD as download client in both Radarr and Sonarr. Just use sabnzbd as hostname

Once set up and configured it works like a charm.

And again, if you need assistance just let me know and I’ll help
