I’m having a similar issue myself. I followed the trash guides, and ended up consistently pulling torrents with 1 or 0 seeds despite setting the minimum seeders in prowlarr to 5. Manually searching fixes it, but also defeats the purpose
Couldn’t agree more
I followed the trash guide for the 1080p profile for TV shows and 4k for movies, haven’t had any transcode issues…yet. If I have any issues though, I’m fully prepared to buy more hardware for the DS923+
So I originally had the Jellyfin running on a Win10 with GPU transcoding, but now I’m running it on a DS923+ in a docker image, and it’s had surprisingly far better performance. And thank you!
Is there a benefit to having the arrs on the NAS if it’s still going to have to communicate and download through the other machine anyway?
My VPN is a mullvad exit node via TailScale which isn’t supported by Synology unfortunately. So Jellyfin on the NAS, and arr + qBittorrent on my windows computer. The problem was in having the mid-download folder on the NAS, causing so many small writes to the NAS that it would shut down the connection. I moved the download folder to a spare HDD on my PC and havent had issues with the setup since. From what I’ve gathered though, this is a really inefficient setup
Gotcha, thank you for your help. In case anyone else is curious…after some testing, I think the problem is Synology shutting down all connections when too many things (downloading + scanning/tagging + moving to Jellyfin) are happening at once
I made a few updates with new issues. I’d love some advice if you have any

I appreciate the help!
That part is fixed at least. Long story short, I made a mistake with API keys. The indexers are showing up in Radarr and Sonarr now, thank you again for that.
It showed up in qBittorrent, so the connections are good. Unfortunately, the download speeds are about 400 B/s despite the indexers. Any tips there would be nice.
Ok, I’m learning and thank you! Let’s start with the first question…the Indexer sections of Radarr and Sonarr have nothing in them (this wasn’t mentioned in the tutorial I was following), how do I add Prowlarr to them?
Their lack of self-awareness makes me laugh, that’s all it is
I have, quite a bit: Ubuntu, Red Hat, Mint, Debian. Not everything is in your precious package manager
Install windows software: download the exe or msi and click OK 2 or 3 times
Install Linux software: you got at least 40hrs to learn terminal commands to install dependencies n shit? I fucking don’t, that’s not what user-friendly looks like to 90% of the planet
I’m waiting for Linux to make installing programs as simple as an exe
That sounds like something that should be ARCHIVEd. Just in case a visitor from a different GALAXY wants to use them in the distant future
That’s a really hard problem to solve. But my advice, and what was working for me last time I tried, was using the Pi-hole as an exit node and forcing as much traffic through it as possible. The only downside to this is that your Pi-hole dashboard will be less interesting because your devices will show as the Pi-hole itself. If you’re already doing that, then my only guess is getting obsessive about domain blocking until it stops, and even that will have its limits.
I second this. And the transition was made easy due to anti-consumer practices. Plus, you can take your media on-the-go for free
I set the minimum to 5 seeders, and I’m on 3 private trackers and raised their priority. Prowlarr doesn’t seem to care
