listrr VS Tdarr

I've looked into this in the past and could not find a good solution. I use listrr.pro and plex-meta-manager to do this for movies, but there does not see to be a good source of this data for TV Shows (IMDB, TMDB, TVDB, etc.) to use those tools to pull from and create collections. The closest I could come is to use other lists people manually create on one of those sources and then use the tools to create the collection in Plex. You could look at trying to create collections based on dates, bu that would be hit or miss. You never know what week in Nov. a series aired their Thanksgiving episode. Might be worth jumping on Discord and asking the listrr.pro developer for some ideas.

You could also use tdarr to automate transcoding as soon as stuff enters your library so that it’s direct playable when you decide to watch it, but I’ve never needed to try it

The only place I can find mention of the script is Tdarr_Server is not closing exiftool.exe after use. #423 and tdarr_server.exe crashes often #412

I've had issues with my 11600k and now 11400 in unraid too. Though it's CPU encoding in my case. See https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr/issues/777 .

So I read through this issue and I have a couple nodes setup, some with QSV and others with NVENC. The respective node capabilities are designated for exactly one of QSV or NVENC.

Have a look at Tdarr for distributed transcoding. I have it on a few nodes and it’s been pretty easy on the network.

I have created a feature request in the Tdarr GitHub page; https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr/issues/772

You can also use tdarr if you have more than 1 file it can auto transcodes multiple files in a directory all at once. https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr
