Jellystat is a self-hosted media analytics and live session monitoring dashboard for Jellyfin and Emby servers that turns raw streaming activity into detailed user, library, and playback insights. Media server administrators use the live dashboard to watch active streams in real time, inspecting transcoding status, client devices, bitrates, and playback progress as sessions happen. Every completed or partial stream is logged automatically so you can browse chronological watch histories, filter by library or stream type, and analyze peak concurrent streaming hours across the week. Dedicated library and user views break down total watch duration, play counts, and most popular movies, episodes, or music albums per account. If you already use the official Jellyfin Playback Reporting or Statistics plugins, you can import existing historical records directly into your instance without losing past data. Built-in database backup and restore tools, automatic library synchronization tasks, IP geolocation via MaxMind GeoLite, and interactive Swagger API documentation at the /swagger endpoint round out the administrative toolkit. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Plex's own dashboard shows current streams and forgets everything else - which is why every Plex server admin eventually installs Tautulli, the analytics layer. This Python web application (descended from PlexWatch and Headphones) logs complete watch history - what was watched, who watched it, when, where, from which device and IP, and whether it played directly or transcoded - and turns it into clean Highcharts graphs of daily plays, concurrent streams, bandwidth, and platform breakdowns. The home page surfaces top statistics over configurable windows: most-watched content, most active users, stream type ratios. For running a server shared with family and friends, this is operational truth: spot the user forcing 4K transcodes on a phone, see which libraries earn their disk space, and track sync activity across users. The notification engine triggers on server events - playback starts, transcode decision changes, recently added media, server down - through dozens of agents (Discord, Telegram, Slack, email, webhooks) with fully customizable text and conditions, plus arbitrary script execution. Scheduled newsletters email your users a styled digest of recently added content. A comprehensive API exposes every statistic for dashboards like Homarr, and an official mobile app monitors activity on the go. Themed to match Plex/Web. GPL-licensed.

To uncover deep viewing insights and AI-powered content recommendations across your self-hosted Jellyfin media server, Streamystats delivers a comprehensive analytics and watch-history platform. Once connected to one or more Jellyfin instances using native MediaBrowser authentication, the dashboard tracks live playback sessions, per-user watch durations, device and client breakdowns, and library-wide growth metrics without requiring third-party reporting plugins. You can import existing historical logs from Jellystat or the Playback Reporting plugin so years of viewing habits carry over immediately, then explore interactive watch-time graphs, genre radar charts, actor and director leaderboards, and a yearly Wrapped summary. When you enable vector embeddings through OpenAI, OpenRouter, Google Gemini, Voyage AI, or a local Ollama model, the recommendation engine calculates cosine similarity against your watch history and explains exactly which watched movies or series inspired each suggestion. An integrated AI chat assistant equipped with thirteen specialized function-calling tools lets you search your catalog semantically, ask natural-language questions about your viewing statistics, and generate shared movie recommendations for multiple household members at once. Administrators can also mark titles as watched or unwatched with automatic watch-time inference, manage watchlists over an external API, and connect Janitorr for automated media cleanup. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Automating media server storage reclamation, Maintainerr is an open-source library maintenance platform that identifies unwatched, abandoned, or stale movies and shows across Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby and clears them on a schedule. Storage drives fill up rapidly when household members request four-season series or high-bitrate films, watch a single episode, and abandon the rest indefinitely. Instead of forcing administrators to audit disks by hand, the rule engine evaluates metadata from your media server alongside Tautulli watch histories, Seerr and Ombi request records, and Radarr, Sonarr, or Sportarr profiles every eight hours. Matching items enter a staging collection that syncs back to your media server home screen as a Leaving Soon row, complete with dynamic poster overlays displaying the exact removal date so viewers have a grace period to finish watching. Before enabling any destructive workflow, you can run the Test Media inspector against any movie or episode to preview rule evaluations and protect favorites with global or per-collection exclusions. Once the countdown expires, the collection handler deletes or unmonitors files, updates import-list exclusions so automated lists never re-download removed titles, clears orphaned requests in Seerr and Ombi, removes leftover sidecar folders, and dispatches alerts through Discord, Slack, Telegram, Pushover, Gotify, Email, or webhooks. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Instead of relying on third-party cloud trackers to keep watched history aligned across Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby, WatchState synchronizes playback state and watch progress directly between your own self-hosted media servers. Household administrators can map multiple family members across independent backend accounts using isolated user identities, configuring either one-way mirroring from a primary server or full many-to-many synchronization across every connected instance. A unified generic webhook endpoint captures play, pause, stop, and watched events from Plex, Tautulli, Jellyfin, and Emby for near-instant state propagation, while scheduled background import and export tasks reconcile any missed updates automatically. When libraries grow across multiple servers, the built-in Media Health diagnostic engine audits the database for external GUID conflicts, duplicate file references, metadata disagreements, weak matches, and missing local files, complete with exportable reports and per-record action hints. Users can also search backend metadata, inspect detailed item event logs, and export portable JSON backups of their entire watch history for safe server migrations.

Browse trending titles, search anything, request it in two clicks: Jellyseerr gives Jellyfin, Emby, and Plex users a beautiful storefront for the media library. Born as the Overseerr fork that added Jellyfin and Emby support (the projects have since unified as Seerr), it handles the full request lifecycle - users authenticate with their existing media-server accounts, pick individual seasons or movies in a clean interface, and admins approve or decline from a simple queue, including on mobile. Approved requests flow straight to Sonarr and Radarr, which handle acquisition automatically, with support for separate 4K server instances. Regular library scans keep availability accurate, so users see instantly what already exists instead of requesting duplicates. A granular permission system controls who can request what - auto-approval for trusted users, quotas and limits elsewhere - and override rules adjust request routing by user, tag, or other conditions. Watchlist and blocklist functions curate discovery, notifications reach email, Discord, Telegram, Slack, Pushover, and Pushbullet, and both PostgreSQL and SQLite are supported. Localized into many languages, it turns "can you add this movie?" texts into a self-service system that runs itself.

Instead of manually hunting for what to watch next after finishing a series on Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby, let SuggestArr turn your household's recent viewing history into automated media discovery and download requests. The platform analyzes recently watched movies, shows, and anime, queries TMDb or any OpenAI-compatible LLM (including Ollama, OpenRouter, and LiteLLM) for tailored recommendations with plain-language explanations, and dispatches requests straight to Seer, Jellyseerr, or Overseerr. Built-in AI Search lets users describe a mood or plot in natural language and request matching titles in a single click. Administrators can schedule recurring discovery jobs, import public watchlists from Trakt and MDBList, and enforce granular filters for minimum ratings, release years, genres, and regional streaming service availability so you never download content you already pay to stream. Smart request controls pause jobs when Seer queues are full, require optional human approval before submission, auto-decline stale requests, and clean up unwatched suggestions automatically.

A single pane of glass for every service you run, arranged by drag-and-drop with no YAML or JSON files: Homarr is the modern dashboard for self-hosted infrastructure. Its grid system arranges apps, widgets, and bookmarks on desktop or touch, backed by an icon picker with over 11,000 icons. What separates Homarr from static launchers is 50+ live integrations: Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby media stats, the *arr suite (Sonarr, Radarr) with a unified release calendar, download clients, Pi-hole and AdGuard Home controls, Proxmox, Home Assistant, OPNsense, and Unifi monitoring. Widgets update in real time over WebSockets (tRPC and Redis under the hood), and a built-in search queries thousands of data points across connected services. Custom widgets extend the reach to any HTTP API without code: define endpoint, auth, and refresh interval in the management UI, then render responses as stat grids, tables, progress bars, status indicators, action buttons, or full custom JSX layouts - with an AI-prompt helper for generating templates. Multi-user support is first-class: credentials, OIDC, or LDAP sign-on, groups with granular permissions, and secrets encrypted with AES-256-CBC. A robust background-job system scales it from a Raspberry Pi homelab to deployments serving hundreds of users.

Every service you run, behind one polished start page: Dashy is the most customizable homelab dashboard, built as a Vue.js homepage. Configuration lives in a single YAML file, but you never have to hand-edit it: an integrated UI editor with real-time validation writes changes back to disk, so both config-as-code and point-and-click camps are served. Status indicators put a live health dot next to every app - HTTP checks or pings on custom intervals, with response time and status details on hover - giving you an at-a-glance uptime overview before anything breaks. Over 50 built-in widgets pull dynamic content from the services you already run: Pi-hole and AdGuard block stats, Proxmox lists, Nextcloud status, Netdata CPU/memory history, Prometheus data, plus weather, RSS, crypto prices, and generic iframe/API-response widgets for anything with an endpoint. Instant fuzzy search launches any app as you type, with customizable hotkeys and web-search fallthrough. Theming is deep: dozens of built-in themes, a UI color palette editor, and custom CSS over CSS variables. Alternate views include a fast-loading minimal startpage and a workspace view that embeds apps side-by-side without leaving the dashboard. Icons resolve from Font Awesome, homelab icon packs, emojis, or auto-fetched favicons. Built-in authentication, multi-page support, cloud backup/sync, and multi-language round out an MIT project with a massive community.

Links stop drowning in browser bookmarks once Heimdall - the application dashboard from the LinuxServer.io team - gives every web app and service you run a single, organized front door. Items come in three tiers. Generic items link to anything on the web with a name, color, and optional icon. Foundation apps are recognized as you type, auto-filling the application's icon and tile color so a full homelab dashboard assembles in minutes. Enhanced apps go further: supply API credentials and the tile shows live data - queue size and download speed for SABnzbd and NZBGet, plus integrations for Sonarr, Radarr, Plex, Jellyfin, Pi-hole, Portainer, Transmission, and many more. There are no iframes and no apps-within-apps; tiles are honest links with real-time stats layered on. Tiles arrange by drag and drop, backgrounds are customizable, an optional search bar (Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo) makes it work as a browser start page, and optional multi-user authentication keeps dashboards personal. Built on Laravel with SQLite file-based storage - no external database - it stays light, responsive on mobile, and simple to back up. A natural first deployment: the page that ties every other self-hosted service together.

"Dead simple static HOMepage for your servER" - Homer's name is the spec. It is a fully static HTML/JS dashboard driven by one YAML file (assets/config.yml): list your services in groups with names, icons, tags, and URLs, and Homer renders a clean, fast landing page for everything you self-host. Because there is no backend, no database, and nothing to maintain, the container is tiny and effectively zero-maintenance - the entire operational surface is a text file you can version-control alongside your infrastructure. Despite the minimalism, the feature set is genuinely useful: smart cards add live data to service tiles via a type key - Pi-hole block statistics, AdGuard Home status, Jellyfin activity, Gatus and Home Assistant states, and dozens more integrations, with configurable periodic refresh. Fuzzy search jumps to any service as you type, keyboard shortcuts drive navigation, and multi-page support with item grouping keeps large homelabs organized. Theming covers built-in light and dark modes plus full custom CSS, tags get color-coded styles, and the whole dashboard installs as a PWA on phones and tablets. Icons come from Font Awesome or your own images. If Dashy is the maximalist dashboard and Homarr the drag-and-drop one, Homer is the minimalist: one YAML file, instant loads, and nothing that can break at 2 a.m.

Every homelab deserves a control center that looks as good as the services it manages. Lab Dash gives you a customizable, drag-and-drop dashboard where every tile earns its spot. Add shortcut widgets linking to your Plex, Grafana, Nextcloud, or any service with automatic health check indicators showing green or red status at a glance. The system monitoring widget displays real-time CPU usage, memory consumption, network throughput, disk utilization, and temperature readings by mounting the host /sys directory as a read-only volume. Integrate Pi-hole stats, qBittorrent download progress, and media server widgets for Jellyfin, Plex, or Emby directly on your grid. Multiple pages let you organize services by category, and the search bar finds any tile instantly. Customize the background image from a local upload or URL, set a custom title and tab name, and choose your preferred search provider including self-hosted options like SearXNG. All sensitive configuration data is encrypted locally with AES-256-CBC, and only administrator accounts can modify the layout. Install Lab Dash as a Progressive Web App on desktop, phone, or tablet for a native app experience with offline capability. Configurations export as backup files for easy migration between instances. On RepoCloud, deploy Lab Dash on a dedicated VPS with root SSH access and Docker socket connectivity under the GPL-3.0 license.

Why split your entertainment life across half a dozen siloed apps when Floppy tracks every movie, television episode, anime season, book, comic, video game, board game, album, and podcast in one unified self-hosted library? A configurable home dashboard shows exactly how much runtime remains in your current shows alongside personalized recommendation rows driven by your genre, studio, cast, and tag history. Music and podcasts are first-class citizens backed by MusicBrainz discography metadata, track-level scoring, Last.fm scrobble polling, and live Pocket Casts episode synchronization. Collectors can catalog physical and digital media ownership down to the exact disc format, video resolution, HDR standard, audio codec, and bitrate, complete with automated Plex collection syncing. Live webhooks and scheduled jobs connect directly to Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Audiobookshelf, Sonarr, Radarr, and Seerr so watches, listens, and library additions log themselves automatically. You can curate public or private lists with programmable smart-list rules, RSS and JSON feeds, Trakt watchlist imports, and barcode ISBN scanning for physical books. Recap-style statistics let you compare custom date ranges across reading streaks, pages read, listening hours, and top actors or authors, while a REST API and built-in Model Context Protocol server power custom automations. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Catalog, rate, and analyze every film you watch with Movary, a self-hosted movie tracking hub and personal cinema diary that replaces Letterboxd and Trakt. Each time a movie finishes playing on Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, or Kodi, automated webhook scrobblers record the viewing session and star rating directly into your timeline without manual logging. You can also bring over years of existing watch history by importing exports from Letterboxd, Trakt, or Netflix, and automatically cross-post newly logged reviews and ratings to Mastodon or feed Watchlist additions straight into Radarr. Customizing your personal dashboard lets you rearrange analytical widgets that break down your viewing habits by most-watched actors, directors, genres, original languages, release decades, and custom watch locations like local cinemas or home theaters. Movie metadata, posters, and ratings pulled from TMDB and IMDb are cached locally on your server, while built-in background job schedules keep artwork and cast details refreshed automatically. Multi-user account controls, TOTP two-factor authentication, granular profile visibility settings, and personal Bearer API tokens make it easy to run a private household log or a shared film club server. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Point Emby at your movie, music, and photo libraries and it becomes a private streaming service: metadata and artwork arrive from TMDB and TVDB, everything lands in a polished browsable interface, and media transcodes on the fly whenever a client can't play the original format. The client reach is the selling point: native apps span Android TV, Apple TV, Google TV, Fire TV, Roku, LG and Samsung smart TVs, iOS, Android, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, plus web browsers and desktop apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and DLNA devices are auto-detected for casting and remote control. Multi-user support gives each household member their own account, watch history, favorites, and recommendations, with genuinely capable parental controls: content restrictions, access schedules, time limits, and live monitoring with remote control of kids' sessions. Live TV works with hardware tuners like HDHomeRun or M3U playlists, with free guide data in the US, Canada, and UK. The server and core features are free; an optional Premiere key adds hardware-accelerated transcoding, DVR recording, offline sync, and Cinema Mode intros.
