    Help getting Whisparr to work with private tracker
  • I don't know if I'd consider this a issue with Whisparr or with the tracker. All the trackers I've used in the past use UTC standards on date format for releases. I think this new trackers standard is just different for some reason and that breaks Whisparr. Maybe I could put in a feature request to allow the date format to be changed in the query.

    Help getting Whisparr to work with private tracker
  • Not in Docker, running on an Ubuntu VM. I'm using IP addresses for everything. I should add, it works fine with Jackett using a different tracker.

  • Ahoy!

    I'm a veteran pirate and pretty familiar with the standard *arr stack of resources, but recently decided to run Whisparr.

    I also signed up for a new private tracker and got it setup through Jackett and confirmed working in jackett. The problem is, when I manually search for a release in Whisparr it comes back with no results, but searching the same release from jackett (or the tracker directly) I see the release is available.

    I think I might know what's going on. I think the tracker has releases dated day/mo/yr and Whisparr is looking for mo/day/yr. This is totally a guess, but it's all I've found so far that might be causing the issue. Was wonder if anyone had a similar issue or a potential resolution.

    Thanks in advance!

    EDIT: So, I think the issue is the date. Looking at the logs Whisparr searches for "release+yr.mo.d" and the tracker has releases listed with "release+d.mo.yr". I confirmed this by trying the search Whisparr was running manually through Jackett. I guess I'll have to see if I can add additional search terms or something or find a different tracker. I'll update with a solution if I find one

    Mother Teresa in her later, more radical, years (1990)
  • Just a point on the text of the actual photo. Armenia's claim is that the disputed land is a republic, The Republic of Artsakh. The Republic has its own government, though it relies greatly on Armenia. The majority of the population, including the president are Armenian.

    Is there a way to have Sonarr/Radarr download to Seedbox but monitor my local Plex server?
  • This is basically my setup.

    My NAS has individual folders for torrent files, downloads in progress, Seeding.

    Radarr/Sonarr monitors the Seeding folder. Then copies the file to the appropriate folder for Plex.

    Colocating for the first time. What do I need to know?
  • Ok, cool. If you're just paying for the rack space and power, make sure you know what the rates are for going over power allotment (and bandwidth if it includes burst, some ISPs might still charge extra of you burst above the bandwidth you're paying for). Confirm if you'll have access to 120v or 240v or both. What power cables you'll need for your PDU or servers if they're providing the PDU.

    Colocating for the first time. What do I need to know?
  • This really depends on the services you're paying for from the colo.

    Assuming they offer internet services, you can probably chooses between a static or dynamic IP for your WAN IP. For your internal network, you would be responsible for DHCP or static assignment.

    You'll also need a security device like a firewall or router that can perform NAT for your internal addresses.

    This info is assuming a lot, I'm not sure if you're paying for a service that might include the WAN networking component, or if you're just paying for power and real estate.

    Happy to help with any more info if you have specific questions.

    Also, you should be able to physically access your gear yourself so you're not paying for smart hands. I would ask the colo of their access hours are anything other than 24/7.

    Creatlity sprite drive direct extruder - worth it??
  • I recently upgraded my Ender 3 to the Sprite. My two main reasons were:

    1: it's all metal (the pro is at least) . I wanted the option of printing in ABS (if I some day have the time to do that)

    2: it makes it so much easier for me to change out the filament.

    I'm by no means a pro 3D printer, I mainly use mine to support other hobbies. I also like that I can print much faster with the Sprite (or so I think). I've also been printing almost exclusively in PETG since I got the Sprite.

    Overall, I think it was a good investment. Could I have survived with the stock extruder? Absolutely, but I'm happy with the purchase overall.

    Hope this helps!
