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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
