This is something that has been increasingly prevalent with my server, for the longest time I could torrent, have two people watching and everything’s fine, but lately, especially with specific shows, it will take upwards of a minute for a show to start.
I’ve looked into it and the culprit is ffmpeg most of the time, I assume this has something to do with the specific files not having transcoding “baked in” but I don’t know enough to know if that’s the case. Can anyone help me optimize my pipeline at all?
Yes, I did, I do not apologize. Fuck big streaming. I only redownload if the size is too big however, finding the “exact” correct codec is just kind of a pain in the ass.
Do you use the *arr apps? Radarr lets you set profiles that can prioritize file size as well as codec. Then the process of acquisition is more automated but still prioritizes your preferences
I tried to figure that out, but it is a little confusing
