Either word of mouth or browsing the recently added section on my Plex share
There’s a discord server that has a bunch of IPTV resellers. PM me if you want a link
Generally, these are referral only and for people you know IRL, not just online. I’ve never seen any discussion of them
It doesn’t. But some private trackers will hold you accountable for people you invite and request invites are given to friends/family only.
Most allow a VPN, AFAIK. Torrents are tracked via your secret key, not your IP address.
For me, a private tracker allows for API integration with Radarr/Sonarr/Readarr
Plus, it’s less likely I get takedown requests on my seed box.
You don’t need upload in GBs - lots of private trackers will use time uploading as an indicator too
Received an email from Plex:
“We’re contacting you to let you know about an upcoming action that is likely to affect your Plex Media Server setup. You’re receiving this notice because the IP address associated with a Plex Media Server on your account appears to come from a service provider that hosts a significant number of Plex Media Servers that violate our Terms of Service.”
I pay a few Euro a month for access to Plex with a lot of content. That content is hosted on Hetzner
Plex are banning Hetzner IPs because libraries are hosted there and shared with thousands. I see people are moving to Emby/JellyFin because Plex is trying to become the next Netflix app OS trying to clean up what they see as pirated content
Personally, I’d expect it to be fine. There’s not a lot of CPU usage for those apps. The only part I see it potentially struggling is the file transfer (WiFi on the Zero W or Ethernet-over-USB).
Might be better to get a Pi 3b with Ethernet on board
