I've started collecting a lot of movies and tv-sjows for my jellyfin server, but I found it quite difficult to keep track of what I already have, what I want and if I have the subtitles and everything for it. What would you suggest to keep track of what is and isn't available on a jellyfin server?
I've seen some stuff like the *arr software, but I actually just want to have a simple piece of software that just keeps track of my media, and doesn't also look for new stuff.
We use Library Thing to manage my library of 1400+ and growing. It is free and works great for books, movies, TV series. Anytime I’m browsing the local stores I easily check if if I already own something. Has helped a ton.
It works with my partner having access to the same library. Wishlisting things is easy. You can scan the barcode or search titles to add them.
@jqubed@notfromhere I use LT for books, no DVDs etc (yet) and second the recommendation! No idea if less popular media such as LD, VD or video tapes are supported, but the people behind LT are incredibly helpful and open for suggestions.
While I would recommend the *arrs applications, Tiny Media Manager will do exactly what you’re looking for. The only downside is that if you want it to grab subtitles for you, then you have to purchase a yearly, but cheap, license.
Ombi comes to mind. It's for requesting new movies/TV shows, but it also has a search feature and shows a tag on results of it's already in your library.
Perhaps something like justwatch would work for you? It's not exactly made for this use but I use it to track stuff I want to watch across streaming services and mark what I've watched, seems close to something that can fill the gap.
Not quite sure what functions you’re looking for? If you want to maintain a wishlist next to a list of your existing media Radarr and Sonarr are probably the best free software out there. Just don’t set up the downloading portion.
They will index, sort and, rename what you have, download subs. You can add stuff you want, and the calendar will tell you when it’s been released.
There are front ends like Tautly but I think they depend the arr’s for some of their features.
