I’ll start. Did you know you can run a headless version of JD2 on a raspberry pi? It’s not the greatest thing in the world, but sometimes its nice to throw a bunch of links in there and go to sleep.

    Another option is to add tdarr to your *arr stack and have it automatically convert any problematic audio/video streams into ones your devices can handle.

    I have it set to encode truehd(?) audio since none of my devices support it and it also ensures there’s a video stream that my roku device can play since it’s a bit pickier than my smart tv

      I’d avoid this as you’d like be converting from lossless to lossless compression (like taking a photocopy of a photocopy). I think (not by my server ATM) that you can set exclusion words in both sonarr and radarr, do you could add “Dolby vision, DV, etc” to this list and they shouldn’t grab them.
