every once in awhile i get a bug up my butt about sharing my massive, curated library.. but every time i get distracted by the volume of steps it would take to create the necessary shit to seed and then find a place that would even take those seeds to index.

ami doin it wrong? why is it so hard? napster was easy.

im at ~36000 episodes and ~2800 movies in a hierarchical library primarily used for kodi and jellyfin. each series/movie is in its own folder.. season of series are in their own folders.. all have xml data regarding each file, created by mediaelch.

i already have a deluge container running over a vpn container so upload/download shouldnt be an issue.. except i get a different ext address on the tunnel when i reconnect every once in awhile.

it just feels stupid i have this beautiful thing i cant share with the world without a mess of scripting

Hmmm, is your goal to share each season folder separately? Is that why you would need scripting?

Or are you looking to share everything at once without worrying about creating individual torrents? If this is what you're looking for, then maybe Retroshare is what you're looking for? I don't know if stuff using eDonkey, Gnutella, or Kademlia are still around, but retroshare has file-sharing similar to those where you point the client at a folder and it just shares the entire thing.

IPFS would've been great for this, but they honestly screwed the pooch on that (it hogs resources, doesn't have good clients, and doesn't have a bridge to torrents or other networks i.e you can't go "oh, I have a torrent file, let me see if the files for this are on IPFS and download them from there").

id prolly be happy with it at the series level even, not necessarily the seasons.. but one torrent seems like a pain to create... thousands seems arduous. without a lot of scripting that is. i'm checkin out retroshare also, thanks!

Can you show your exact folder structure?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

very simple

//library/Movies/$movie_title //library/Series/%Series_title/%series_season

Then yes the solution of @[email protected] is fine, no need for anything too complicated.
