I have prowlarr linked to my sonarr and radarr, and I use nzb360 on my phone. When away from home, I'm using a VPN tunnel to my network so I basically download a movie or series a minute after somebody recommended it.
You should also try overseerr or the cool new Reiverr.
Reiverr looks great, I can’t wait to try it out. Thanks for sharing.
Did you have any opinion on this iOS app, Helmarr? https://apps.apple.com/us/app/helmarr/id1638624921
Alternative to NZBClient https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nzbclient-for-nzbget/id1178245637
As an alternative to the other options, you can use the watchlist feature within plex and have radarr/sonarr monitor it as a list
As atfergs said, Overseerr.
I have a lot of friends and family that stream from my Plex so I set up an Overseerr instance that is outward facing through a Cloudflared tunnel.
Overseerr uses Plex shared users to handle authentication and allows fine control of permissions per user.
It sends requests straight to Sonarr and Radarr to handle.
For people using jellyfin, Jellyseer is the fork of it and it works wonderfully.
My main question is: what automates pushing new content to my Plex libraries and kicking off a library scan?
Seems like there are lots of apps that do similar things (monitor trackers for example). I just need one that moves content from \Data\Torrents\ to Plex:\movies and tickles it enough to trigger a scan.
Does Overseerr do this?
Sonarr and Radarr can transfer your finished torrents and tell Plex to scan.
Under both services, go to Connect and add your Plex server. You can specify what triggers a scan.
Overseerr is basically a frontend that combines Sonarr and Radarr and allows you to share that access with friends and family so they can make requests.
I use ombi https://github.com/Ombi-app/Ombi
Interesting. Ombi means I don't have to run docker. How do you like it?
It's pretty nice. It's just a very simple front that will add a series or movie to radarr or sonarr. Not great for discovering new stuff but the search works well to find stuff you're looking for. No complaints from my side!
I have Sonarr/Radarr set to monitor lists on trakt.tv
If you got an Android device, I use NZB360, in conjunction with radar and sonar. I can monitor and search remotely on my server using that. Then sends it to Plex.
You would probably enjoy Overseerr
What ended up happening with all the massive security problems in the -arr programs that were used to take over all those VPSes, anyway?
You're absolutely not to run them without a VPN or other authentication portal in front of them.
Why would you even give them that much access? By default, all they can do is check feeds from sites and forward links to your download client. I haven't heard of any of these vulnerabilities and a quick Google search finds nothing mentioning this.
It sounds like someone port forwarded a bunch of software and found out why that isn't a good idea (or necessary) the hard way.
I'm not the person to answer the quesrion, I'm advocating for hot opening it up to the internet.
SABnzbd to handle the downloads
Overseerr works well for a search front end
Python script as api and watched folder qBittorent. This is what I have. Torrent site being TorrentGalaxy
