I did not use one for years with no problems but now I’m paranoid and use one since it is up 24/7 now.

Yea I would test a large file and as soon as it buffers put a limit on quittorrent or something that could be reading and writing lots of data from those drives and see if that fixes the issue. I wish there was a better way.

In qbittorrent setting. you can set upload and download limits to turn on at specific times or when you want to by clicking the little speed dial.

So if you are not utilizing those harddrives for other uses such as torrents thn disregard.

I believe I have a very similar issue as you. It only occurs on remux/high bitrate 4k videos. Happens no matter the player etc. I currently fix this issue by putting on that limit qbit upload speed and everything plays fine then.

I am interested in what your solution is.

Plexamp right now is the biggest reason I have not even thought of moving to something else. I have yet to see a music player that comes close to the features Plexamp has.

That’s wild I had no idea actually

Yes to reach others you need the port forwarded and some users have have access blocked if you are not also sharing.

Yea it worked well enough from what I remember. I used it for awhile but ultimately only stoped because it (lidarr) still needs metadata from music brainz and if it’s not there lidarr does not have it. So ultimately for me lidarr is the problem/metadata for artists.

I gave up on private trackers for music tbh I can’t be asked to go through an interview for a tracker to be honest. I also don’t use lidarr I set it up once but gave up because it just does not work well for me I instead find my music (98% of the time) from a different site (not a torrent site it’s a direct download and has early releases updated all the time this is how I find new music aswell + last FM) and the rest I search for and find using slskd (old release s). If you want to use lidarr I would recommend setting up soularr (this needs slskd) or I believe there are lidarr integrations with deemix or others to rip the audio that way. But as said above I don’t use any of that anymore. I’m a huge fan of slsk though

Ok thanks. I’m pretty happy with watcharr at the moment.

I think I tried out mediatracker but switched to watcharr because of how much faster it was but I just tried out the demo for mediatracker and it seems to buy much faster than what I remember maybe will try it out again

I also have an extremely slow connection when using the exit node. Did you figure anything out to work better?

just found out there is an “Experimental” setting for it to “Try to embed the lyrics to the track files when possible” setting have not tried it myself

I use Plex (Plexamp) and I can not complain. I don’t really access via the web browser however, I use the app for dedicated music playback.
