Hell no, My downloads folder in my media folder are completely different. I copy everything from downloads to media It gets renamed, possibly resampled. The torrents are left in the original folder to seed unmolested.
Every once in a while I go through my torrent list and just tell the client to destroy the torrent and files for anything that I don’t care to seed anymore. Zero chance of it breaking my actual store.
There needs to be an overlap in the mount points of docker jellyfish and docker sonarr, etc. I don’t think I got it right. Besides, sonar ends up not moving the series inside the tv shows folder, leaving the episodes outside, in the media folder above. If I knew exactly what was going on I would fix it. Last time I dealt with it was ages ago, so perhaps I can do it now.
The over lap of docker containers needs to happen from inside the perspective of the container. If you send Radarr to pull a movie from bittorrent, they both need to “be in the same spot”. If bittorrent thinks it’s saving a movie to /data/torrent then Radarr also needs to see the movie at /data/torrent.
That’s why so many guides use the /data/ label scheme. Its just easy to use and implement. Side note, for hard links to work, all the folders need to be on the same drive. Can’t hard link between different drives.
Yes - but I have no idea about docker, sorry. Have it running baremetal (or rather, in a proxmox VM).
Just a hunch, but in case you “only” share the directory where Sonarr puts Episode files with Jellyfin via some mount point or whatever, and not the directory where Sonarr gets them from (where the torrent client downloads to), then I can see hardlinks breaking in unexpected ways
Sorry to hear that that’s been your experience! :( My installation has been running for ~5 years without any problems
you got the hard links working?

Hard links are a built-in feature of basically every modern filesystem. The bigger question to me is, why aren’t hard links working for you?

Seems like I’m not so weird after all…

This was the crux of my confusion, but after a couple of years of Docker, it now makes more sense to me 😁
