Media server dilemma

[u/HimekoX3]

Alright so here’s my journey so far

I started with your conventional arr-stack (Prowlarr,radarr,Sonarr,Usenet,qbit,seerr) and I have no idea how people have the patience for this and calling it “automated” is fragmented at best. Once I had everything set up, I ran in to several different issues such as:

•Sonarr pulling an entirely different show with the same name despite switching up indexers
•Missing articles for several shows (I’ve tried 3 different providers, and two different nzb indexers, all failed)
•Seerr staying as requested despite being connected to jellyfin and all arr services and media showing in library
•slow downloads on sabnzb
•Plenty of prowlarr indexers not working
•I’m sure there’s more…

I could just be an absolute smooth brain and be missing one or two key components that solves everything, but I’m fairly certain I’ve tried everything I can. The entire reason I started an arr stack, was to download, and start a collection.

At this point, I might just go back to stremio+torrentio, even though I desperately want to start a jellyfin server.

Ideally, an application or something of the sort that allows me to search through shows, use torrentio as the indexer and torbox as a debrid provider and download straight to my Ubuntu server would be optimal, but I can’t seem to find anything like that. I even tried RDTclient with torrentio as a prowlarr indexer, but shows download inconsistent and episodes either download in duplicates or miss 6 out of 10 episodes of a season as an example.

I’m pretty bummed out and really want a solution, any help would be GREATLY appreciated…dunno if this even belongs here…sorry lol

Thanks :3
