Maybe I’ll have to try again. https://www.reddit.com/r/Lidarr/comments/1bq1zot/comment/m6ecbr2/ was my experience downloading with deemix and trying to import into lidarr.

This looks interesting. Just two thoughts (sorry if these dont belong in a recruitment post, feel free to ignore):
Radarr and sonarr already have a function to look at ones library and offer recommendations for new adds. How is your proposed functionality different?
Lidarr import of existing library or even grabs/downloads is atrocious. It’s damn near unusable, and a lot of people (myself included) don’t use it because it’s functionally useless if one has to manually import every song or album. I’m not sure it’s worth spending time building anything on top of Lidarr. Thoughts?

I run isponsorblocktv in docker to mute/skip ads and sponsor segments on my smart TV and it works beautifully.

Okay. I finally understand what you mean 🥲
Authenticate a self hosted software stack in someone else’s cloud 😂
That is a wild design choice. Glad it works for some…
Anyway… apologies for being ignorant
- Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April 2 weeks ago:
My interpretation of your linked instruction (granted, I haven’t tried plex) is that it’s the same two scenarios.
Your plex client app login talks directly to your server login. The client app meeting the server is arranged by the plex relay server and nothing more. There is no ‘logging in’ to the plex relay server; it’s function is to arrange a meeting of two tunnels and that’s it, much like a tailscale derp server.
The relay server is serving the same function as caddy on a VPS, hell, they could even be using tailscale under the hood and it’d look exactly the same to a user.
Anyway, attack vectors even with a public facing jellyfin are mitigated because
a) jellyfin is running in a docker container = a successful attacker would only be able to trash my jellyfin container, which ultimately is not that big of a deal (unless there is a different docker exploit that enables access to the server itself, which is an entirely different issue and larger than a jellyfin/plex discussion)
b) fail2ban in conjunction with a reverse proxy bans malicious ip addresses that come back with too many errors too many times (errors that you, the admin, specify) So, for example, brute force login attacks are mitigated.
c) the reverse proxy itself allows access to only one specified internal ip address/port combination. Pending a caddy exploit (again, a different discussion) it is not possible to fish for acrive ip addresses or port scan my internal network.

I see. So if you read that instruction you’ll see it’s the exact same setup that I outlined. They use a vpn to connect your client to your server and just negotiate the meeting in the middle. It’s the exact same risk scenario as running a reverse proxy on your own vps. Unless I’m missing something else?

I don’t see anything in the linked article about a relay server
- Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April 2 weeks ago:
Yes exactly. What do you think plex is doing?
- Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April 2 weeks ago:
My home connection is behind cgnat so I got a free VPS from oracle, install caddy on VPS, install tailscale on VPS and router, expose routes from LAN to tailscale network.
Now you can use caddy to expose, for example, a docker container (jellyfin) at 192.168.1.100 to subdomain.exampledomain.com with ssl cert provided by caddy.
VPS also requires some other stuff like ddclient and fail2ban.
I pieced this all together myself… it’s doable if you spend some time reading.

It doesn’t require Plex servers, though. I do this on jellyfin for free.

Maybe. I’m on wifi provided by a Mexican telecom. It’s probably my US sim. The comment i replied to said “it shows as this in mexico” and my point was, no, not for everyone. I’m not interested enough to try to nail down the exact reason.

Literally just finished configuring headscale on a free (pay as you go) oracle vps because I’m behind cgnat. Getting tailscale on pfsense to connect to a headscale server was a chore but finally got it.

I know you guys conversed this far; just wanted to share with you that readarr functions like wet garbage compared to the other arr programs. Just don’t go in with high expectations with readarr, and if it ends up not working well (or at all), just know the other arrs are really top notch. Radarr works awesome and sonarr will literally keep your shows up to current for you. All that said too… there is a steep learning curve if you’re new to docker.
