The setup and instructions helped a lot with setting up. My library is small and local now but the future is bright. Thank you all for writing info answers and docs.
Special thanks for all the devs of Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, Torrent clients and nzb360.
Extra special thanks to the devs at Jellyfin. Honestly this whole set blew my mind.
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
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
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?
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.
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
A stack is the pile of software that builds on other software to get something done. I'm here from /local so I don't know what any of these programs are, but for example the classic website server "stack" is LAMP : Linux, Apache (web server software), MySql (database software), PHP (backend website language).
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.
