  • Don’t get too crazy into categorizing your media. Keep it simple with your folders, so Jellyfin can know what the file is then scrape the internet for meta-data.

    Media -> Movies -> Example Movie (year) -> Example.movie.file

    Media -> Shows -> Example Show (year) -> Season 1 -> Example.show.S01E01.file

    Ideally your media downloads will have the name and release year in the folder name already. It knows to ignore or match things like x264, DD.5.1, and release group name.


  • Ohhh, I think I understand now, they can’t connect to jellyfin because that computer has the VPN on. I thought their question was turning on a VPN to connect to Jellyfin outside their house.

    Then yea split tunneling would be a good solution. Set up so only the torrent application uses the VPN. Or that Jellyfin is excluded from the tunnel.

    Unfortunately I’m not too up to date on VPNs and which offer that. Perhaps their network equipment could apply the VPN to only the torrent traffic, and then they match the port number used inside the torrent application’s settings?









  • Think of it as more modular.

    I personally used Traefik, but only because I’m a masochist and it would be useful to know in IT workplace.

    Traefik + CrowdSec + CowdSec Traefik Bouncer.

    Traefik handles the traffic, and said traffic has to get a green light from CrowdSec + Bouncer before it can go anywhere.

    The concept of CrowdSec is honestly super awesome.

    Do Bazzite. It will be unbeatable for just working and ease of use.

    Stay away from Manjaro for anything.

    SteamOS that Valve offers is not the same as what’s on the Steam Deck. It’s extremely dated and is what it used to be. A real distro from Valve has yet to be released.

    The best way to install WoW is using Lutris, which also comes with Bazzite. You search for and install Battle.net, then you can install WoW normally. Lutris can also add a WoW shortcut once WoW is installed, too.

    You can also just copy and paste the WoW folder from your Windows Program Files folder. It keeps all your settings and addons.

    For addons use Wowup-curse. It’s a open source addon manager that is just straight up better than all others.

    Currently, WoW needs Proton-GE to work. Using wine-staging, or the dated wine-ge, and Battle.net will have problems starting. It’s something weird with authentication and connecting online. Proton-GE contains a patch specifically for this.

    The easiest way to get Proton-GE is using Protonup-Qt if using KDE plasma, or Proton Plus if you’re using Gnome. For Protonup-QT, you select Steam, then install Proton-GE for Steam. Lutris will also be able to use it.

    Just general advice, I’d use the latest Proton-GE as the default for all Steam games.

    In Lutris set the runner for Battle.net to Proton-GE.
