It’s both the media downloading stuff to get new stuff that you might want, and the program that takes all that media and puts a netflix-like web (and apps). That second part is the one you criticized.
However, since sometimes my PC is off and my partner wants to see the stuff, or we like watching it on the tv, sometimes on the phone on the bathroom, having a separate PC that does all that has value. It’s always on too so sometimes it downloads new chapters of series at night and they are already there by the time I get to watch them.
Yeah, you got it. It’s a collection of different services, though. I think that the link in the original comment of this chain is that of a script that manages the while install.
Right now I have a service that searches in torrenting sites (prowlarr, for anime Tosho and thepiratebay), that is linked to the media managers (sonarr for series, radarr for movies), which are both linked to qbittorrent for the download. Then, after the download they move the files to the prior folders, where jellyfin serves them in my local LAN.
As I told my friends, if they don’t see value in jellyfin they can still get value from the rest of the stack, or if they have enough with prowlarr and then with the magnets download the videos manually, sure.
If you are not savvy though (or even if you are, let’s be real, I’m lazy) that script might be helpful.
Oh, I forgot, I also have another service called Bazarr that links to sonarr and radarr to detect series/movies and downloads subtitles via opensubtitles. It’s cool but optional.
If you didn’t already guess it, the naming convention of *arr is a joke, Arrr, pirate!

I see. So it is a central server (in your LAN?) that looks ahead and cache the media, and serves many local clients.
Cool! Is this one program that does it all? Or are there different parts to configure?

Thanks a lot! It’s much more clear. The arr bit made me chuckle
