I’m considering using RD, but before sign-in up and paying for it, I would like to know if is there a way or a guide on how to get tools like radarr to automatically use RD for downloads instead of using VPNs and seedboxes/torrentboxes.

If you do have a similar setup, can you describe it? Thanks!

    Awesome and thanks a lot for putting the time to explain it like this.

    So for some reason I got side tracked with radarr and didn’t see the need for trackt anywhere, but that seems the missing part on all this.

    This also shows up that the Plex workflow is seamless (no Overseerr/jellyseerr need, no trackt need) than jellyfin right now.

    Reading plex_debrid code, it seems it has some initial code on scanning current Jellyfin library, so finishing that code could remove the need of Trackt.

    Now, one advantage of using Radarr ia that it will move and rename to a standad naming the incoming files, I think that only for this feature it is worth to keep it in the workflow.

    So it seems like I’ll need to fix plex_debrid to understand existing Jellyfin library and remove the need of trackt!

    Thanks a lot!

      Hey if you do decide to pursue finishing his Jellyfin library code you should definitely check out the discord. They have a channel for development.

      Namely I saw a post from the dev back in February saying the reason he didn’t finish Jellyfin libraries, and still relies on Trakt, is because

      Jellyfin doesn’t give out the IMDb ids of stored files easily.

      Awesome stuff! If you do fork or PR for seamless Jellyfin integration let me know! That’d be awesome. I know he’s been super busy lately and hasn’t been able to update as much as he wants.
