Any reason not using Streamio?

Similar to most responses, I backup whatever I created myself, not shared by someone or downloaded from somewhere. I care about pictures that I took, documents, financial records, etc, which don’t take up much space at all.

Technically, you don’t really need to touch those Arr applications once you set them up. As others have mentioned, Seerr (merged from Jellyseerr and Overseerr) is probably the only thing you use on daily basis.

You mentioned an app for remote streaming, I assume you know about Jellyfin already. If not, it’s like Netflix but you watch your own videos.

Don’t have the same problems as yours. My only issue with TA is that it’s very picky about the ES and Redis version, so currently I pin them to a specific build. I do worry that one day TA will be updated so much that it won’t support older builds of ES and Redis and my whole thing may break.

But when it works, it works perfectly, giving Jellyfin all the metadata to display them neatly (with the TA plugin of course).

Feels just like the tech used in the show Person of Interest. Essentially, to avoid the detection of a supercomputer, the protagonists communicate via VHF mesh network.

Agreed that there’s no all-in-one solution to play local music and music on Spotify (if I’m a premium user). I vaguely recall there’s a solution to automate playing Spotify music and record it in real-time (since you cannot download music directly) but it seemed too troublesome, so I eventually chose spot-dl4 to download music from YouTube using Spotify playlist, then the folder got imported into Lidarr/Navidrome, then my Symfonium on Android connects to Navidrome to get the songs.

It’s quite a bit of manual work to add songs to a separate playlist if I like something on Spotify then use spot-dl4 to do the download. At least, I successfully keep a copy of my favourite songs on my server.
