Asking for suggestions on managing media (lemmy.world)

I have an extensive movie/tv show library. Been collecting for years and is a mixed bag of media types. I would like to convert all to h265 or something similar to try and conserve space. Currently my media is sitting at around 30TB's I know from a previous post that is not as significant as some others but converting one by one would be a nightmarish undertaking. I am hoping someone has a cli script to do the conversion.

I am currently using radarr, sonarr, lidarr and readarr for my media I know lidarr and readarr are dead and am looking for an alernative either for those or the full stack. I would also like to perform the conversion of media from the downloaded format to what is suggested to the best format.

Tdarr is what I use to unify my media. It does a good job of converting my files to h265. Runs in the background with my tesla p4 transcoding 3 streams at a time. Ripped through my 30ish tb library in a few days. It can change bitrate and resolution as well, but I haven’t had the time to play around with that yet. Can watch you library for change and transcode automatically, or you can run it when you like.

+1 for Tdarr. 10tb almost 11 saved since I set it up.
