I wish there was a YouTube equivalent of Sonarr that just uses yt-dl to auto-grab and organize YT channels you want as new episodes come out. Then you could just play with Plex or Jellyfin.

I am in a similar boat. Since you have Tidal might want to look into Tidal-dl to "backup" the things you especially like in high quality.

Tidal is actually not too bad, and it pays artists more than other services (not a lot, just more) but I do expect it to go downhill/away eventually so I make a habit of downloading what I can and supporting the artist directly in other ways.

Overseerr is basically a polished front end for Radarr/Sonarr. It's useful if non-techies are requesting things, and/or you just want a single, dead-simple place to request (video) media. If you want to just try it out it doesn't affect your radarr/sonarr setup at all.

@[email protected] gave a good explanation of Prowlarr. Just another simplification/automation tool.

The simple answer:

Get Qbittorrent and use it's built-in search engine.

The fully automated gay space answer:

  • Look into selfhosting - (optional but makes it easier/coler)
  • Look into Plex (or Emby or Jellyfin) - optional but makes it pretty

These are the apps you'll need:

  • Radarr - Gets movies
  • Sonarr - Gets tv shows automatically as they come out
  • Prowlarr - the thing that does the searching for radarr/sonarr.
  • Overseerr - Makes it simple to request stuff
  • Qbittorrent - downloads things

(There is also Lidarr for music and Readarr for books)

If all set up correctly, you simply just request something with Overseerr and it shows up in Plex minutes later with artwork and metadata all pulled in and presented nicely. You can configure the apps to look for specific resolutions/file sizes/formats/etc. TV shows are downloaded as soon as a new episode is released. It's better than any streaming service by leaps and bounds.

The fact that they are only here was the final straw for me to make the switch to Lemmy.

Physical buttons please and thank you

I'm getting hung up because nobody clarified that until now thank you.

I did actually do it this way for a while, it's clunky but works. Unfortunately my Firefox container stopped loading, I tried Chrome and N.eko which also had issues and I'm not experienced enough to overcome those.

That's promising, can you point me in the right direction?

The staff were the ones who told me there's no workaround except to purchase a seedbox

I should have clarified, not browsing, but the torrent/magnet link won't work. I can't browse from one PC then paste the link into qBittorrent on the server.
