Hey ya all,

Reiverr is a project of mine that I’ve decided to release to the public today. It’s a self-hosted website similar to the content discovery app Overseerr, with the added features of managing and watching your content library through Sonarr, Radarr and Jellyfin integrations. The motivation behind the project was the lack of a unified modern UI that could be used to discover, manage and watch content in a single place.

Currently, the project is in very early stages of development, but it is mostly usable in its current state. If you want to try it out, you can find the installation instructions in the project’s GitHub page:

https://github.com/aleksilassila/reiverr

Also: For the project to reach its fullest potential, it could use contributions! If you’d like to contribute code, designs (I’m not a UI designer, please help me), documentation or anything else, first of all, thank you!, and you can find an extensive list of planned features & fixes at the Reiverr Taskboard. It’s also a great place to just get a sense of what’s being done if you’re curious.

Cheers guys!

    Amazing! This looks gorgeous!

    The screenshots probably shouldn’t include copyrighted movies though, so it doesn’t get taken down from GitHub. You can replace them with Blender Studio projects https://studio.blender.org/films/

    (Also there’s a small typo it says steam instead of stream on GitHub)

    This is similar to an idea I had some time ago but it was too difficult for me to implement. I’m happy to see a similar program being develop. Though using Jellyfin, Sonarr, Radarr, seems too difficult for the average user, with so many interconnected programs. I wish there was a simpler alternative.

    My idea was:

    A program that combines the features of Mediarepo and Fopnu, connected to a metadata database like MusicBrainz. The integration with a metadata database would enable users to automatically curate their file collections and contribute to the database by curating files that haven’t been curated yet. This would allow for efficient organization and easy searching of files based on their metadata. Users would also have the ability to create collections and download entire collections instead of searching for individual files.

    This is sick. An android TV app, while I’m sure a low priority, would make this a home run for me. Great work.

    This sounds incredible. My biggest gripe about moving from Plex to Jellyfin is that now to make requests, my family has to go to my Jellyseerr site. On Plex they could just add things to the watchlist, so that would be amazing to bring to Jellyfin.

      I like using other sites like imdb, trakt.tv for my watchlist, and then hooking up sonarr/radarr to monitor them. I’m not sure if it’s feasible for your friends/family to do private lists and provide auth for you - sounds like a UX nightmare for them unless they are also technical - but, if they make their watchlist public on those sites, you can probably subscribe your tool to them easily.

        That is actually a great idea, but they are not remotely technical. Anything more than a couple clicks is asking a lot haha

    I’ll admit to being a little nervous to stand up something on my server that’s explicitly named for looting/pillaging, just in case I’m the mark and not the operator.

    EDIT: Why is the app having my browser try to load googleads and doubleclick.net ads? I assume the play.google.com and youtube.com integrations are for some additional content?

      Haha, I found the name brilliant :D

      The google crap is from a youtube iframe found in the frontpage that displays trailers in the background for the showcased movies. So far I haven’t found any other way to play YouTube videos inline unfortunately.

    Anyone have a link to the image that isn’t hosted on Imgur? Maybe using catbox.moe? Imgur blocks my VPN.
