Handbrake (https://github.com/jlesage/docker-handbrake) - Similar to QT bittorrent, nice to have a spot where I can dump my video files and it has tools to monitor new files dropped in and custom formats.

I would highly suggest that you use https://github.com/jlesage/docker-handbrake/blob/master/README.md

Do you use docker? You could use the ripper container and use handbrake container. You’d set the output directory of ripper to be the handbrake input directory. Just put the disk in the drive you have setup and ripper will do it’s thing. After it’s done handbrake will detect a movie and encode it using your settings.

Very new to docker - although quite techy. I am guessing I missed permissions or something somewhere. I have set up Handbrake https://github.com/jlesage/docker-handbrake within Docker following this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6HgHsxdWIo I can access it via port5800, however when I go to add a file/folder the pop up goes to "storage" if I go to "Other Locations" I can see the folder I specified during set up, but then I get "Cannot Read contents of GoProToSort" "Error opening directory. Permission Denied"

But when jlesage/handbrake launches, even if you manually specify uid:gid 1000:1000, there are permission errors:

It sounds like you missed the x11vnc part of this. You connect into the container using vnc, not x11. If you want to see a working example of a gui app running successfully in docker, check out https://github.com/jlesage/docker-handbrake

There isn't a magic setting or anything, and honestly, I don't recommend tdarr, mostly because you can do all the same stuff it does with a bash script and jlesage's handbrake container (or just handbrake outright).

My NAS/home server is a NON-COREBOOT HPE-Proliant-Gen10 microserver I have some details here. 24G ECC, 24TB RAIDZ-2. I am running docker containers for Makemkv, Handbrake, Filebot, Jellyfin, Gitea, TinyTinyRSS, Bitwarden, Samba (readonly for Kodi running on an Nvidia Sheild TV), Restic backup, Nextcloud, PFELK (router stats) and a weather forecast app I run on an old Nook in a picture frame. It isn't fast but it doesn't need to be for my needs.

Because Flatpak imposes some design choices that are... less than optimal for porting existing applications, and if you ask them to change maintainers will insist this is the way to go.

They have told users that if they want, for instance, Jetbrains IDEs to work, they should simply get a Job at Jetbrains and convince them to rewrite their entire IDE to support the flatpak model.[1]

This is the reason I avoid distros with Flathub enabled by default. Half the software on there is broken in some pretty subtantial way, and nobody at Flatpak or Flathub cares. They really need to realize they're not Apple, they simply can't tell everyone to do things their way and hope to build a working and reliable ecosystem.
