We’re excited to announce a major update: the Jellyseerr and Overseerr teams are officially merging into a single team called Seerr. This unification marks an important step forward as we bring our efforts together under one banner.
For users, this means one shared codebase combining all existing Overseerr functionalities with the latest Jellyseerr features, along with Jellyfin and Emby support, allowing us to deliver updates more efficiently and keep the project moving forward.
Please check how to migrate to Seerr in our migration guide and stay tuned for more updates on the project!
I’ll be honest, only the first setup gave me some trouble as I was tackling docker compose too. After you gain familiarity setting up a new arr is basically copying the provided yaml service then filling in the envs with yours
ok, but why do I want to use this? what does it do? what is its purpose?
The arr stack is for downloading media in an automated matter, for example sonarr will scan the inderxers you give them for the series you want and automatically download them. Then you can use a service like jellyfin to watch your media
I’m aware of what the arr stack is for generally, but not with overseerr and jellyseerr
I’m aware of what the arr stack is for generally, but not with overseerr and jellyseerr
It’s basically like https://thetvdb.com/ & https://www.themoviedb.org/ with buttons to auto download the media and automations on the backend to make that all happen.
I am very familiar with a decent amount of the words used in this comment.
this sarcasm or ya actually in the know?
Oh sarcasm, I am an idiot
Docker compose is how you can define a set of services and then run them. Those services are defined in a yaml file. Most programs provide their own way to be ran through docker compose. Env is a shorthand for environment, basically values you pass to customize the services.
