Sonarr

Sonarr is a TV show manager that watches for new episodes and gets them for you. It works with Usenet and torrent download clients.

Sonarr tracks the TV series you follow and shows upcoming episodes in a calendar. When an episode becomes available, it searches your indexers and sends the release to your download client. If a download fails or turns out to be broken, it blocks that release and tries another one until it finds a working copy. You can also run a manual search, pick the release you want and send it to the client yourself. Sonarr keeps your library organised by sorting and renaming files as they arrive.

• Calendar of upcoming episodes
• Manual search and release selection
• Automatic retry when a download fails
• Sends releases to your download client
• Runs on Windows, Linux, macOS and Docker

People with a large home media library who want episodes added without manual searching. It suits users who already run a download client and have indexers set up.

Sonarr is free and open source under the GPL. Costs come from your own server, storage and any indexer or service accounts you use. Installation guides cover Windows, Linux, macOS, NAS systems and Docker. On Windows it can run as a system tray application or as a service, and each option has trade-offs around network drives and user profiles.
