Some things which have caused issues for me:
File permissions
Video/audio format (264/aac stereo is best for compatibility)
Oh file permissions are a nightmare to me, I thought I managed to get it sorted but after i installed lidarr, it alone suddenly can't move files out of the download location anymore. I even tried to chmod 777 the data folders and nothing. I dont think I quite have the grasp on how those work with docker on linux yet, it seems like those arr services also have some internal users too which I dont get why would they.
Wdym with the formats, is this referring to transcoding? I kept those on defaults afaik
In linux user and group names don't matter. Only the gid and uid matter. Think of user and group names as human names like domains are for IPS.
In docker when you use mounts, all your containers that want to share data must agree on the gid and uids.
In rootless docker and podman the subuids and subgids make it a little more complicated since IDs get mapped between host and container, but its still the IDs that matter.
I have one .env file with UUID/GUID 1000 set for all docker services in the docker-compose so it would make sense in theory if that's enough, but it seems it rarely is...
