Hello All,

Currently I'm running SFTP from my Seedbox to my Plex server (Ubuntu) via a Windows 10 machine with SMB. It's fine, though a little slow. The speed I can deal with, but I was hoping to automate this process. Are there any decent, free FTP clients out there that can periodically search my seedbox for new files and automatically upload them to my Plex server? Is there a better way than using SFTP?

This is my first run at this and I'm looking for any insight you folks may have to offer. The goal here is to be able to make a request in Ombi and have it appear in my Plex without any interaction when the transfers complete.

Side note: I'm so happy to have found this community. I've gained so many insights already.

I use bitsync to transfer files from my seedbox to my home network. The app itself is years old, closed source but just works.

Theres versions for arm, windows and Linux.

Use it via windows 10, Ubuntu 20lts currently but did also use the arm version on my wd mycloud and multiple arm based boards like raspberry pi 2, pi 4, orange pi pc and cubietruck.
