I already responded to you on reddit, but for Usenet you really don’t need a VPN, only for torrents. I also told you to just use Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr and SABnzbd but since you also want something to play the items definitely keep Jellyfin. I also recommend to keep Jellyseerr as it’s a great way to request and find new movies and shows.

I’ll paste my original response from reddit here just in case someone else is looking for the same thing:

Assuming you want to fully automate it by using Sonarr and Radarr you can use my fork of docker-media-center which has SabnZBD for Usenet downloads:

https://github.com/PCJones/docker-media-center

Sadly I haven’t got the time yet to update the documentation but if you know docker you should be able to figure it out, if not I’ll gladly help.

You’ll want to remove all services you don’t want from the docker compose file (so for a simple Usenet Setup you’ll only want Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, SabnZBD).

Important stuff missing from the documentation:

  • the git clone link in the documentation is still pointing to the original repository, make sure to clone mine

  • at some point docker will tell you that it can’t find the network global or local (one of these, I forgot which. But it’ll tell you) When that happens all you have to do is execute docker network create global (or local)

  • after starting all services (especially SabnZBD) you’ll need to execute the file set_sabnzbd_hostname.sh once and then restart the SabnZBD container.

  • In the sabnZBD Folder settings you’ll need to set the temp folder to data/temp (it doesn’t have to be temp, you can chose another name).

  • In the sabnZBD Folder settings you’ll need to set the completed download folder to data/downloads

  • In the sabnZBD Categories settings you’ll need to set the Folder/Path to data/downloads/radarr for movies and to data/downloads/sonarr for TV and anime

  • you’ll have to add sabnZBD as download client in both Radarr and Sonarr. Just use sabnzbd as hostname

Once set up and configured it works like a charm.

And again, if you need assistance just let me know and I’ll help

I can give you info about a provider that offers full F1 TV access for 20-30€/year, I’ve been using it for a few years now. It’s great and you can easily stream it on any device. Send me a DM if you want more info

Just having a Jellyfin instance for family and friends. I have everything in h264 for maximum compatibility to avoid transcoding. All 12 seasons of Bones (2005) take up 800GB alone for example. A 1080P Remux movie takes 10-40GB

I know this is not exactly what you are looking for, but the Usenet indexer https://scenenzbs.com/ is specialised in German (+ German/English Dual Language) releases. Registration is open. They have a lot of stuff, not everything if it’s older or rare, but enough. For new stuff it’s perfect and there is basically everything.

Let me know if you need help setting it up, this is the best way to get German content if you don’t have access to a private tracker.

PS: If you are looking for a German dual language Radarr/Sonarr setup I made a guide for that (works for public torrent trackers too, but as you said - there isn’t a lot of German content on them): https://github.com/PCJones/radarr-sonarr-german-dual-language

Can you share your dockerfile if you have one? Don’t forget to remove personal information before

Short answer: no

Long answer: yes, but they are basically useless. Except for some indexers that cost money but also have a free plan where you are capped at like 5 downloads per day.
