Docker is your friend.
I have reinstated my server last weekend with a single big docker-compse file. I made a mistake and just restarted the docker-compose and it was fixed.
To avoid having to mix/delete/rename files. Make a shared volume. So that your download client downloads to the same actual folder as where your sonarr puts it. But to be fair, sonarr does things like renaming, so that it often doesn’t work that way. I just ended up making a cron job that deletes files older than 7 days from my downloads folder every Sunday at midnight. Hopefully that’s enough time to get a decent share ratio, if not, tough luck.
If anyone has a better solution to keep your download client (qbittorrent for me) uploading after sonarr moved the file, tell me.
The German language part is a tough one. I’ve been looking for Dutch dubbed children cartoons, but I haven’t found anything yet.
You’re right. Hardlinks have to be on the same partition though. My “downloads” folder is on my internal harddrive and me sonarr folders are on an ssd. That’s why it didn’t work.
