Cinephage puts your movies, series, live TV, subtitles, indexers, and download clients into one self-hosted media command center instead of a stack of separate automation services. Browse and organize libraries from a responsive interface that works on desktop and mobile, with file scanning and metadata matching keeping titles identified correctly. Search across configured indexers, compare releases with quality profiles and custom scoring rules, and send chosen downloads to your client without repeating setup for each media type. Let monitoring tasks watch for missing episodes, upgraded releases, and newly aired content, while the blocklist stops failed releases from coming back. Pull subtitles from multiple providers with language profiles, create dynamic smart lists from list sources or custom queries, and add matching titles automatically. Generate streaming links as .strm files for players such as Jellyfin, Emby, and Kodi, try live TV channels with guide data where configured, and receive library update notifications in your media server.

The movie half of the *arr stack: Radarr is a .NET collection manager that automates acquiring films for Usenet and BitTorrent users the way Sonarr does for TV. Add a movie once and Radarr handles the rest: it monitors indexers and RSS feeds, grabs a matching release the moment one appears, sends it to SABnzbd, NZBGet, qBittorrent, Deluge, Transmission, rTorrent, or another connected download client, then imports, sorts, and renames the file into your library structure. Quality profiles are the control surface - define allowed resolutions and a cutoff, and Radarr keeps upgrading files automatically, replacing a DVD rip when a Blu-ray release lands. Custom formats go further, scoring releases by codec, HDR metadata, release group, streaming source, or arbitrary regex so the copy you want always wins the pick. Failed downloads retry with another release automatically; a manual search shows every candidate and explains why one was skipped. Release parsing recognizes director's cuts, special editions, AKA titles, and hardcoded subs. Plex and Kodi integration handles notifications, library refreshes, and metadata like posters, trailers, and subtitles, and a calendar view tracks upcoming releases. It pairs naturally with Jellyseerr for request management and shares its API conventions with the whole *arr ecosystem.

Add a series once, set a quality profile, and everything downstream is automated: Sonarr is the smart PVR for Usenet and BitTorrent users. It monitors RSS feeds from your indexers, detects new episodes the moment they release, sends matching grabs to SABnzbd, NZBGet, qBittorrent, Deluge, or another download client, then renames files with fully configurable templates, sorts them into consistent folder structures, and notifies Plex, Kodi, or Jellyfin to update the library. Quality profiles define what's acceptable (HDTV, WEB-DL, Blu-ray, up to 4K) and an upgrade cutoff - when a better release appears, Sonarr replaces the existing file automatically, stepping from HDTV to WEB-DL to Blu-ray until the cutoff is met. Custom formats add weighted scoring for finer-grained release selection, with community-maintained TRaSH Guides presets as the widely accepted defaults. Failed downloads are handled without intervention: Sonarr retries with another release, and manual search shows every candidate with the reasons any was rejected. It scans existing libraries for missing episodes, fully supports specials, multi-episode files, and daily and anime series types, and a calendar view shows upcoming episodes across every tracked show. Runs on Linux, Windows, macOS, and Raspberry Pi, and pairs naturally with Prowlarr for centralized indexer management.

Stalled torrents, malware-laced archives, and failed imports can quietly paralyze an automated media server, and Cleanuparr eliminates those bottlenecks as an autonomous download queue manager and library seeker for the entire Servarr ecosystem. Connecting directly to Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Readarr, Whisparr, Sportarr, and LazyLibrarian alongside qBittorrent, Transmission, Deluge, rTorrent, uTorrent, and SABnzbd, its configurable Queue Cleaner tracks slow transfers, stuck metadata downloads, and import failures using a strike system. Once a problematic download reaches its strike threshold or triggers the Malware Blocker against deceptive .lnk and .zipx payloads, Cleanuparr purges the offending files, blocklists the release, and instructs the media manager to search for a clean replacement. Beyond defensive queue hygiene, the built-in Seeker proactively searches your libraries for missing episodes or movies, hunts for Cutoff Unmet quality upgrades, and tracks Custom Format score distributions over time. Storage administrators can also enforce seeding duration limits, clean up orphaned torrents without breaking active cross-seed hardlinks, and quarantine unclaimed directory files before they consume disk capacity. A live web dashboard visualizes manual intervention alerts, strike histories, and searchable application logs while dispatching instant notifications through Apprise, Discord, Gotify, Notifiarr, Ntfy, Pushover, and Telegram.

Subtitles are the one chore Sonarr and Radarr leave behind - Bazarr finishes the *arr media stack by automating them. It connects to both via their APIs and mirrors their libraries - it doesn't scan disk itself, it manages exactly what your *arr apps index. For every monitored episode and movie it checks existing internal and external subtitles against your language profiles, then hunts missing ones across dozens of providers - OpenSubtitles.com, Podnapisi, Addic7ed, Subscene, and many regional sources - covering 184 subtitle languages including forced/foreign-dialogue tracks. Matching is smarter than filename guessing: releases are compared by release group and source, some providers support exact file-hash matching, and every downloaded subtitle gets a percentage score. Set a minimum score per Sonarr/Radarr connection and Bazarr rejects weak matches; enable upgrades and it replaces previously downloaded subtitles when better ones surface. Out-of-sync files get fixed too - automatic subtitle synchronization realigns timing after download, triggered only below a configurable score threshold so good subs aren't touched. Per-show and per-movie language configuration, download history, manual on-demand search, and adaptive searching that throttles provider API calls round it out, all behind a clean Sonarr-style web UI written in Python. If your library serves multilingual viewers, this removes the last manual step.

Configure each indexer once, not five times: Prowlarr is the indexer hub of the *arr stack, removing the most tedious duplication in a media automation setup. Instead of configuring the same torrent trackers and Usenet indexers separately in Sonarr, Radarr, Lidarr, Readarr, and Mylar3, you add each one once in Prowlarr and it syncs them to every connected app automatically, complete with category mappings; with Full Sync enabled, adding or removing an indexer propagates everywhere, and a tracker URL change is a one-place fix. Coverage is the deepest available: 500+ torrent trackers with definitions added constantly, 24 native Usenet indexers, generic Newznab and Torznab support for anything else, and custom Cardigann YML definitions with JSON and XML parsing for obscure sources. Built on the same .NET/React base as its siblings, it also earns a place as a search tool in its own right: unified manual search queries every indexer simultaneously at a category level, and you can push multiple releases straight to your download clients without touching Sonarr or Radarr. Health checks and status notifications flag failing indexers, per-indexer statistics track success rates and response times so you can cull unreliable sources, and per-indexer proxy support (SOCKS4/5, HTTP, FlareSolverr) handles trackers behind Cloudflare.

Written in optimized C++ where competitors use Python or Java, NZBGet saturates fast connections while idling on CPU and RAM - which is why the performance-obsessed Usenet downloader has long been the client of choice for NAS boxes, Raspberry Pis, and routers as much as full servers. The engineering shows in the recovery pipeline. Instead of shelling out to par2cmdline, NZBGet integrates the par2 source directly and exploits its knowledge of exactly which articles failed - quick par-verification checks only what needs checking, and its own multicore repair implementation runs 2-3x faster than the external tool on the same hardware. Fast par-rename deobfuscates scrambled filenames in seconds without a full verification pass, and rar-rename recovers names for multivolume archives even when no par2 files exist. DirectWrite assembles articles straight into sparse destination files, skipping temporary-file churn entirely, with an article cache and queue-pausing options to eliminate disk contention. Automation is complete: a remote web interface, full JSON-RPC API, RSS feeds with duplicate detection, scheduling and prioritization, and an extension manager for Python and Bash scripts triggered by download events. Sonarr, Radarr, and every major indexer integrate natively.

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.

One library for the books you read and the books you listen to: Chaptarr manages audiobooks and eBooks side by side, so the same title can live on your server as a chaptered M4B and an EPUB without two separate apps fighting over it. It knows the difference between editions and narrators, which means a dramatized production, an unabridged reading, and the print text can coexist as first-class versions of one work. Multi-part releases and multi-file recordings are handled as single books, and MP3 audiobooks can be converted into one chaptered M4B with chapters preserved or inserted where they are missing. Separate root folders keep audiobooks and eBooks apart, or place eBooks alongside their audio twins; either way, matching uses file tags, folder names, and release metadata to attach files to the right book automatically. Series are organized for you, metadata profiles control which languages belong in your library, and flexible renaming tokens produce filenames that read the same way a human would shelve them. Custom quality profiles per library drive automatic upgrades when a better release appears, and the standard download clients and indexer integrations from the *arr family plug straight in.

When household readers want a single web portal to search, request, and deliver ebooks and audiobooks without juggling separate indexers or download clients, Shelfmark unifies the entire acquisition pipeline in one self-hosted hub. Universal search mode queries Hardcover, Open Library, and Google Books for rich cover art, series order, and edition metadata before aggregating matching releases across every configured source. Direct search mode queries individual providers immediately for rapid title lookups. You can connect Prowlarr torrent and Usenet indexers, direct web download mirrors, IRC book channels, and Soulseek peers through slskd inside one unified interface. Multi-user accounts support granular request policies where family members or friends submit book or release requests for admin approval, complete with per-user language preferences and custom delivery targets. Completed downloads automatically rename and route files into Calibre, Calibre-Web, Grimmory, BookLore, or Audiobookshelf watch folders, or dispatch directly to e-readers over SMTP email. Built-in authentication supports local credentials, reverse proxy headers, OpenID Connect single sign-on, and existing Calibre-Web user databases. Optional WireGuard VPN with a fail-closed kill switch and Tor routing keep external indexer queries private.

Stop wrestling with dead scrapers and scattered reading folders by orchestrating your digital library through Bindery, an automated ebook and audiobook management platform that tracks favorite authors, monitors release schedules, coordinates indexer searches, and organizes media collections. Users can configure monitoring profiles to automatically track author bibliographies across OpenLibrary, Google Books, and Hardcover without fear of dead endpoints breaking their library. Dual-format tracking allows each book entry to hold separate digital ebook and multi-part audiobook files in distinct directory roots. The integrated search engine evaluates Newznab and Torznab indexers in parallel, scoring releases by edition tags, audio bitrate, narrator names, and release year to grab the highest quality versions. Download jobs pass seamlessly to background clients like SABnzbd, NZBGet, Transmission, or Deluge, moving completed files into custom library folder structures with hardlinks. An interactive release calendar highlights upcoming publications, while the manual metadata editor locks custom titles, genres, and series ordering against upstream refreshes. Readers can browse curated collections directly through the built-in OPDS feed on mobile reading apps or export organized media straight into Calibre and Audiobookshelf.

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.

Radarr, Sonarr, and their sibling apps watch RSS feeds for new releases but never go back for what your library is still missing, and Houndarr fills that gap by asking them to search in small, polite batches. It reads the wanted lists of every connected Radarr, Sonarr, Lidarr, Readarr, and Whisparr instance and sends a few search commands per cycle, so a big backlog drains over days instead of arriving as one Search All Missing burst. Each instance has its own batch size, sleep interval, hourly cap, per-item cooldown, and post-release grace period, plus an optional download-queue limit, allowed search windows such as 09:00-23:00, and tag filters that include or exclude items. Three independent passes run per instance: missing items, cutoff-unmet items below your quality profile, and upgrades for files that already meet cutoff, with the last two off until you enable them. Sonarr, Lidarr, and Readarr can search by season, artist, or author, and search order is random or oldest-first. The dashboard shows library health, recent hunts, hourly budgets, and a cooldown schedule per instance, with Run Now buttons for on-demand cycles. The Logs page records every search and skip with its reason in a filterable audit trail that copies as TSV. A key-gated widget endpoint feeds Homepage dashboards, and built-in login or reverse-proxy authentication protects the interface.

Profilarr orchestrates media library quality profiles, custom formats, and release matching rules across all your Radarr and Sonarr servers from a single centralized management console. Instead of manually copying regex strings and scoring tables between home server instances, you can link community configuration databases like TRaSH Guides and Dictionarry to automate standardization. The visual pattern workbench lets you test regular expressions directly against real-world media release titles, highlighting matches for audio codecs, HDR formats, and release group tags. You can simulate release scoring before deploying, inspecting exactly why a candidate download gets accepted or rejected based on your custom ranking conditions. Media managers can define custom delay profiles, establishing protocol priorities and minimum score thresholds to prevent premature grabs before high-quality releases surface. Granular synchronization tools push updated profiles and formatting rules to multiple production Arr instances simultaneously while preserving your local server overrides. When indexers publish new release naming conventions, you can update conditions once in your central database and roll out updates across your entire infrastructure.

When international movies and series arrive in a Radarr or Sonarr library without native-language captions, Lingarr automatically translates subtitle files across dozens of languages using local AI models or cloud translation engines. Connect your existing movie and television directories to scan media folders, identify missing target-language subtitles, and generate translated caption files alongside the original video streams. Administrators can configure an ordered chain of 13 translation backends, pairing a primary engine such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, DeepSeek, Mistral, xAI, or DeepL with automatic fallback to self-hosted LibreTranslate or local Ollama models whenever rate limits occur. Context-aware prompt templates inject preceding and following dialogue lines into each AI request so idioms, speaker tone, and timing remain natural across scene transitions, while batch translation mode processes multi-line blocks in a single call. From the web dashboard, users can browse indexed movies and episodes, trigger manual single-file or library-wide translations, and monitor active queues, progress percentages, and historical logs in real time. Scheduled background tasks and a documented REST API allow media servers to automate caption generation completely hands-free as new releases finish downloading.
