To be clear, this is just a joke, and I don’t look down on direct downloading. It absolutely has its place, and sometimes I do it myself if it’s just faster to download a file directly. Torrenting is just so much more convenient, though, especially when using Jackett’s manual search.
I would like to set up an .arr stack that dumps files into my OMV NAS, where Jellyfin can pick them up, but I want the torrent traffic to go through my Proton VPN. Is this a common configuration, or should I be doing something differently?
If you are in the docker ecosystem, this is fantastic https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn
You can configure sonarr and radarr around this so that when the torrents are completed, they are renamed and placed in the nas as well as send a webhook to jellyfin to let it know it has been added (instead of it having to to do a manual search)
Yep, that’s what I’m doing (except different NAS). I’ve got the Proton connection at my firewall, but you can use a gluetun container and route your other containers through that as well.
This is excellent to know, thank you.
I think you may have replied to the wrong post? At least you still received an answer, though, lol.
I probably shouldn’t have hijacked, my apologies
No problem.
