You might like Reiverr it’s “a clean combined interface for Jellyfin, TMDB, Radarr and Sonarr, as well as a replacement to Overseerr” and it’s made by a Lemmy user
That looks awesome. I'll consider migration if they get Homarr integration.
Ive never use homarr it looks like itd be an alternative to revierr? Idk whats its used for exactly so im not sure how theyd work together. but you could ask the creator. https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/1910033

Homarr is a dashboard. Integration would be a widget that shows info.
I have been thinking of setting up my own media server for a long time but never got around to researching/doing anything about it. So seeing this post from the main page of Lemmy was very intriguing. Can anybody tell me with simple words what all these tools do?
Are any of the applications in the list used to stream the media to your devices, or do you need a different app like plex or similar for this?
Jellyfin is the media server. (Like Plex but free open source, and a cleaner interface.)
Thanks!
If I understood the github link correctly the stack is basically for downloading, renaming, moving and keeping track of what media you have watched?
Correct!
To add, nzb360 is a paid app to interact with the services from your phone easily with a killer UI. Worth the money imo.
Cool thanks!
This was exactly the explanation I was hoping for. Vpn and torrent I have used before, but the rest was new for me.
whats the purpose of a media server
See this reply to my questions here for a good walkthrough of what this stack of software does. Basically helps you make your own streaming service by downloading what you want to host from different sources and you can access it from your devices. Like your own custom Netflix.
okay but how do you even get media for this 'custom netflix'? do yiu just pirate?
Yes but don't tell anyone.
how
Download a torrent file and put it into a torrent client. Let the client download the torrent. Take the resulting file and watch it using the video player of your choice.
Stremio with torrentio has replaced the whole Arr stack for me
I have both setups (arr stack and stremio+torrentio), here my opinion.
Where stremio falls short is:
cast integration: semi works with chrome cast, but when using torrentio I just cant get it to work. I need to get into screen mirroring, which is less than ideal. Not to mention it doesn't work with Roku/DIAL protocol.
proprietary and closed- source. It will not take long until MPAA-eye will look at it and try to curtail it (eg. going after torre ntio or other addons).
I like it, but I prefer to control my destiny, so I keep my arr stack always close.
Stremio is not proprietary and closed source. It's open source and you can find all the code for client applications and server on their GitHub account - https://github.com/Stremio

Ísland er best
EDIT: I know see what sub I am in, and apologize. It was just a simple question.
Is there a similar guide for Plex that someone can point me to? I’ve always been interested in the arr services, and would like to try them out.
I use rdtclient, Prowlarr, Radarr, Sonarr and Emby (considering the switch to JF). Because I am using rdtclient with RealDebrid, no VPN is required. Because I use Prowlarr I only have to use prowlarr to connect to rdtclient. Sonarr and Radarr use prowlarrs indexers and rdtclient connection. Simpler setup.
There is also another "combined" service like your mentioned one called Bobarr.
what even is a media stack im so confused
