Unable to update Radarr directly, update the docker container to receive the update

[morganzero]

Hi, using the :nightly tag gives me this every time.

[mdhiggins]

I don't understand what the issue is here

[morganzero]

I just started to use this container. And the linuxserver nightly version looks slightly different, where it shows green if I'm up to date, and it doesn't have that exclamation mark. I think I just got worried over nothing :)

[mdhiggins]

The container doesn't rebuild nightly due to issues with overload the FFMpeg server so it might be a little behind but shouldn't be an issue. Just build the container

[morganzero]

Excuse my ignorance but may I ask? Does *Arr firstly import/upload the file to the location and encode/convert it in that location? Or does it convert/encode it before it imports it?

[mdhiggins]

After import

[morganzero]

Is there something I can do for the script to fire off before It imports? I rather have it encoded pre-import for multiple reasons.

[mdhiggins]

Yep see the readme You have to configure post-downloader scripts (nzget, sab, etc) which will do the conversion before it's passed back to *arr

You'll need to set up SMA or find a container with it preinstalled though for those docker containers, the default 2 sma containers I maintain only have postSoanrr/postRadarr support. There are a few out there

[morganzero]

I've been using sabs for over a year with good results, I started using radarr-sma just a couple of days ago, and I like the idea, especially of enjoying both Usenet and torrent conversions through one platform. Doing the post-downloader script just pushes me back to square one I guess ;D

How about I ask you this then. I currently have my config for radarr/sonarr-sma setup like this. Would you be kind and review it for me. What I'm trying to achieve is the following:

I want it to convert the media to MKV, even if the extension already is MKV. I want it to contain h264/x264 video format with AAC, both 2ch and 6ch audio, and keep the original audio source as well. Embed SRT or ASS subtitles as well as image subs like PGS. And if the original file already included (bypass-if-copying-all = True) what I just wrote I want it to bypass (process-same-extensions = True)

[mdhiggins]

Seems like what you have here should work. You'll likely end up with 3 channels for each audio stream though (aac stereo, aac multichannel, original) for any stream over 2 channels that's not already AAC

Also be cautious with this workflow that you don't process the same file multiple times, you may end up duplicating audio streams with each conversion

[morganzero]

Thanks for your review. Yeah, I'm aware of the truplicate stream. I rather have process-same-extensions = False but then it would bypass all of it even if the audio source isn't AAC like I want it. I wish there was a way of telling it to process even if the audio stream doesn't match my "criteria" instead.

[morganzero]

Btw. What do these mean?

post-process = False
wait-post-process = False

EDIT: I obviously have read these In my case, I'm already using this script for post-processing. Would I benefit from settings these two parameters to True, is what I mean?

[mdhiggins]

You can add on additional post processing python scripts into this SMA script suite to be run afterward

https://github.com/mdhiggins/sickbeard_mp4_automator#post-process-scripts

These settings apply to this feature

[morganzero]

Thank you so much for your time explaining and guiding @mdhiggins. I appreciate your work! ⭐

[mdhiggins]

No prob I'm working on a https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-mods version of the SMA script so you might be able to integrate it into downloaders more easily

[morganzero]

I'm looking forward to that 😃 👍

[mdhiggins]

Early version is published and working in my prelim tests, still need to write up the documentation but try adding this to your environment variables on a linuxserver based container, should install sma and ffmpeg, and you'll need to add a volume for your config folder just like the radarr-sma/sonarr-sma containers

DOCKER_MODS=mdhiggins/sma-mod:latest

https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/mdhiggins/sma-mod

[morganzero]

Awesome! Looking forward to it. I'll give it a test run in a few hours when it's morning. On 10 Apr 2021, 01:01 +0200, Michael Higgins @.***>, wrote:

So I don't really need to deploy sma-mod? I just put it in env?

[mdhiggins]

Correct, only for linxuserver containers though

[morganzero]

Great! My first move will be to deploy it within linuxserver/deluge, a client I never really got working before :)

[mdhiggins]

That was the container I had done my testing on and it seems to be working nicely

@mdhiggins May I ask how you setup Deluge to perform the post process after torrent completion?

I'm looking for a way to keep seeding the original torrent. Any suggestions?

[mdhiggins]

This is covered in the readme and sma-mod includes a delugePostProcess.sh that includes all the relative path information (instead of called delugePostProcess.py directly)

It automatically makes a copy and does not modify the original torrent files so that you can keep seeding. You'll need to remove the originals from deluge at some point on your own

Thanks! Does it work well with extractor enabled?

[mdhiggins]

Nope, you'd have to modify whatever extractor script you're using to call things

[morganzero]

Gotcha! May I ask which extractor you use? :)

[morganzero]

Do you think I can do something like this?

[mdhiggins]

Nope, the way delugePostProcess works is that it queries the API for a list of files to process which will no longer be accurate after you have extracted

You can set forcepath to bypass this but you'll need to call with the correct parameters https://github.com/mdhiggins/sickbeard_mp4_automator/issues/1181#issuecomment-599158502

I'm giving up on Deluge. Haven't gotten it to work for the past year, I really got my hopes up now lol. Does this script you pointed me to apply to qbittorrent as well?

[mdhiggins]

https://github.com/mdhiggins/sickbeard_mp4_automator/wiki/qBittorrent-Unrar-Script

That should generally work for qbt with only minor modifications for the python path for the docker container

Thanks. I give up. I don't know what I'm doing wrong but I don't seem to be able to get any client to work with your mod. And it's most likely my lack of skills and nothing wrong with your mod. Thanks for all your help though, I truly appreciate it!

[mdhiggins]

If you can provide some information about how its failing I can perhaps help you fix it

Sorry to waste your time. I can't provide you any information, cause there are nothing in logs. The script doesn't execute.
