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.

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.

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.

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.

Find a title tonight and wake up to it named, filed, and ready to play: Mediarium is a self-hosted media manager that finds, downloads, repairs, and organizes movies, TV, music, ebooks, and audiobooks from one web page on your own server. Search once and it queries your Usenet and torrent indexers together, grabs the best release, unpacks it, applies your naming rules, and places it where Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby expects it. Quality profiles with upgrades and fallbacks keep hunting better copies automatically, while delay profiles, a blocklist with retries, and tags such as Kids or 4K keep the wrong releases out and collections tidy. Subtitles are matched to your exact file, with a timing fix when one runs out of sync. Family accounts carry permissions of their own: relatives who cannot add titles send requests you approve, and watch history read from your media server drives statistics and optional cleanup rules. The built-in Books app reads ebooks, plays audiobooks chapter by chapter, remembers your place everywhere, and even opens Kindle books. Torrents can run behind a built-in WireGuard VPN with a kill switch, downloads repair and unpack themselves, and notifications, backups, and a post-import script keep the routine invisible. Moving over reads your Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, SABnzbd, and other existing setups without changing them.

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. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

One Ether install puts the TMDB catalogue inside your TV apps and streams titles on demand from your own accounts, holding no media files at all. It appears as a normal server inside the Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Infuse and Stremio apps your household uses, with the whole catalogue browsable as if it were local. Press Play and Ether resolves the best release across your sources, health checks it, and streams only the byte ranges the player asks for, so scrubbing lands at the right keyframe instead of restarting a download. Pull titles from Real-Debrid, TorBox, AllDebrid and Premiumize accounts, Usenet providers through a built-in Newznab and Torznab manager, Cardigann definitions, or Stremio stream addons pasted in as sources. Released titles need no request queue: each viewer's Plex and Trakt watchlists sync in, and newly playable titles surface in a Now Available row on their home screen. A poster studio renders 4K, Dolby Vision, Atmos and rating badges onto artwork in the browser, and rule-based collections can run as 24/7 virtual channels in the Live TV guide. Subtitles arrive matched and retimed to the cut playing, with skip markers. A self-evicting cache keeps replays instant and preloads the next episode as you watch. Local playback needs no Plex Pass, and Docker runs Ether on port 32400 beside your library rather than replacing it. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

Messy video folders become a clean, browsable library with MDCz, a metadata scraper and organizer that prepares local movie files for Emby, Jellyfin, and Kodi. Point it at a folder and it recognizes titles from filenames, then pulls metadata, high-resolution covers, stills, and cast information from sources including DMM, FC2, AVBase, JavBus, JavDB, MGStage, and Prestige. Each finished title gets a standard NFO file beside the video, so your media server shows rich detail pages instead of bare filenames. The batch workbench queues folders of files, shows a diff preview of every rename before anything changes, and reports success and failure per title. Actor names arriving under different aliases from different sources merge into one canonical name with your own mapping rules. Segmented releases, STRM stream files, and external subtitle files move together with the main video during renaming. Built-in tools check for duplicate titles, apply rule-based renaming, and maintain existing library data. Run it as the Docker WebUI on your NAS at port 3838, or use the desktop builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

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.

Tasterr is a self-hosted discovery front end that learns what each person in your household actually likes and fills the home screen with movie and show rails picked for them. It reads the TMDB catalog in your chosen metadata language and merges it with your Plex, Jellyfin, Seerr, and Trakt accounts, so library titles, requests, and watch history shape every recommendation. Continue Watching pulls resumable movies, episodes, and next-up picks from Plex and Jellyfin into one rail, and Because You Watched rails spin off new suggestions from finished titles. Watched titles disappear from discovery by default, a Not interested button banishes titles for good, and My List keeps the maybes one tap away. When the household gathers, Something for Everyone Tonight blends member profiles into one shared shortlist, and Picks You Wouldn't Usually Watch deliberately wanders outside each profile. Requests flow into Seerr under the signed-in member's name, availability badges show where a title already lives, and admins tune regions, streaming services, rails, language, theme, and accent color.

Your Radarr and Sonarr libraries only grow when someone remembers to add titles, and Blockbusterr removes that chore by discovering movies and shows on a schedule and delivering the ones that pass your rules. Jobs pull trending, popular, anticipated, box-office, and list feeds from TMDB, Simkl, Trakt, and MDBList, with experimental Letterboxd lists available when enabled. Every job applies one reusable rule set: content-rating limits, blocked and allowed titles, genre, year, runtime, language, and vote boundaries decide what qualifies before anything reaches your stack. Weighted scores blend IMDb, Trakt, TMDB, and Metacritic ratings, and Smart Popular adjusts its threshold against the feed it reads. Preview mode shows accepted, rejected, and skipped titles with the reason for each decision, so a new job can be tuned safely before it runs unattended. Delivery sends movies straight to Radarr and shows to Sonarr, or creates Jellyseerr and Seerr requests when you prefer an approval queue. Per-job caps and a rolling global budget keep a busy feed from flooding disk space, and an instance-wide dry run tests the whole setup without touching your library. Activity entries and job-run history record scores, decisions, and outcomes with posters. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Trailarr fills the gaps in your media library by finding, downloading, and organizing trailers for the movies and shows you already own, so browsing your collection feels like browsing a cinema lobby instead of a folder of silent posters. Connect multiple Radarr, Sonarr, and Plex instances and it watches what arrives, fetches matching trailers automatically, and saves them right next to your media using Plex naming conventions that also suit Emby and Jellyfin. Existing trailers are detected before anything downloads, so duplicates never pile up, and Plex Pass trailers that already meet your minimum resolution are left untouched. Custom profiles put you in charge of quality, format, and processing, including how long to wait between downloads and whether conversion happens at all. From the web interface you can search and filter the whole library, open any title to check its trailer status, swap in a different YouTube trailer ID, or trim unwanted seconds from the start or end of a clip. Path mappings translate between the paths your downloaders report and the paths your server actually uses, a classic source of broken media setups. Hardware acceleration through VAAPI on Intel and AMD keeps conversion light, Discord notifications flag important events, and an event history shows what happened and when.

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.

Getting non-technical friends and family onto a media server is its most tedious chore - Wizarr solves it. Instead of manually creating accounts, dictating server addresses, and explaining which app to install, you send one invite link. When the recipient clicks it, Wizarr creates their account on your server automatically - Plex, Jellyfin, Emby, Audiobookshelf, Komga, Kavita, and Romm are all supported - then walks them through a mobile-first, app-like onboarding wizard: download the right client, sign in, and learn how to request movies through your Overseerr or Ombi instance, with an optional Discord server invite along the way. Invitations are genuinely manageable: set expiration dates, usage limits, passphrases, library-scoped access tiers, and time-limited memberships that end access automatically. The wizard itself is fully customizable - Markdown-based steps managed from the admin UI, organized into pre-invite and post-invite phases (terms of service before joining, app setup after), reorderable bundles assignable to specific invitation types, and combined flows for invites spanning multiple servers. Multi-server and multi-admin support manages several backends from one dashboard, SSO support is plug-and-play, and a REST API with OpenAPI/Swagger documentation covers automation. A Flask/HTMX app in a single Docker container.

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.

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.

Running a Jellyfin or Emby server usually means a dozen open tabs; JellyGlance folds your whole media server into one screen you can leave open on a wall. Live sessions show who is watching what, from where, on which client, with direct play or transcode state, codec, bitrate, subtitles, and progress for every stream. Playback history accumulates in its own database, so statistics survive even when the media server forgets: top movies, series, libraries, clients, and users, watch-time trends, activity heatmaps, and weekly, monthly, and yearly recaps rendered as shareable cards. The home dashboard arranges by drag and drop, with presets, density controls, themes, kiosk mode for a wall display, and alert rules. Recently added shelves group by library, while library views surface totals and metadata gaps. Jellyseerr and Overseerr requests appear with poster cards, requester context, and admin actions, and the release calendar pulls upcoming titles from your *arr apps beside the queues of your torrent and Usenet clients, stalled items included. Wizarr invites, Tdarr transcodes, and Maintainerr cleanup connect from the same integrations area. Notifications travel by webhook, Discord, Gotify, and email newsletters, backups export to a plain folder, and sign-in spans local accounts, Jellyfin Quick Connect, and OIDC.
