I just got into usenet and some of the files downloaded are ISOs. I’m trying to figure out the best way to convert them to mp4s so that I can play them through plex. I’m running on a headless arch server (Manjaro), and I’d prefer to keep the conversion there if possible.

Anyone have experience with this?

@esmazer @Eris http://old.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/providers and https://old.reddit.com/r/usenet/wiki/providerdeals is your friend.

Most use block deals from NewsgroupDirect or annually with frugal/newsdemon. NewsgroupDirect with Frugal will give you 5 backbones worth of access for not too much. Then you need an indexer like one here:

with sabnzbd, sonarr, radarr, lidarr, prowlarr, mylarr, readarr, overseerr, Plex media server and unRAID and you're set.
