What's a really niche tool you use that you can't live without?
dar is the only tool I know of that supports incremental backups to untrusted remote storage. All the remote sees are giant encrypted blobs.
- Backing up a folder to multiple destination drives
-
Uploading encrypted zfs volume to cloud
DAR is a linux tool that does incremental updates after a snapshot: http://dar.linux.free.fr/
- MergerFS or some other way to manually cycle disks to backup? (11TB of data backup to multiple 1TB and 2TB disks)
- Is there a backup software solution that treats HDDs like tapes and writes to them in sequence as they're inserted?

Is it worth it to convert my media library?
I have been using MP4 automator for over 5 years; https://github.com/mdhiggins/sickbeard_mp4_automator . I choose MP4 as it works on preety much any device i have ever tryied, H264, AAC stereo and AC3 5.1. Have also used Tdarr for H265 conversion; it really uses 35-50% less space for same quality (4k and I wasnt able to see difference).

Which Radarr repository do you use?
They do extended versions of some existing containers that add extra stuff. I use sabnzbd-extended for the SMA support.

need some advice on media managers
SMA, Automatically converts media files to a standardized format, and tags them with the appropriate metadata from TMDB if the container supports tagging. Made to integrate with Radarr, Sonarr, etc. but can be run stand alone. Python required (3+, although 2.7 was still supported, last I knew). Free. https://github.com/mdhiggins/sickbeard_mp4_automator

Sickbeard mp4 Automator for media conversation and metadata matching. Combined with mediaelch for bulk renaming and poster downloads, they’re essential for plex hosting. Also use subler for quick metadata/language code fixes.
- Is there a way to force Jellyfin to remux all MKV to MP4?

Add transcoding to my Setup
You can use something like the following to automate the transcoding: https://github.com/mdhiggins/sickbeard_mp4_automator
- Recently found out about Tdarr and it has saved me so much space so far! Also, now I get to directly stream my media over Plex, without any transcoding needed! Highly recommend it!

Synology radarr & sonarr-SMA docker close but not quite there
Going back to https://github.com/mdhiggins/sickbeard_mp4_automator, I was following the steps for sonarr/radarr and went to add a connection (custom script). Browsed to /usr/local/sma/postSonarr.py and clicked the test button, and I got an error that the script exited with -1. I am wondering if it has something to do with this weird instruction from the github page:
- Automatic encoding after download complete
- M1 Mac mini as Headless server or wait for M2 mac mini with this use case
