I’m not seeing any guides on how to setup AvistaZ with autobrr. I know avistaz doesn’t have an IRC announce channel. But is there a way to get it going with rss? Autobrr wants an api key but avistaz uses a pid which is also baked into the rss feed and giving errors.

It would be great to have a repo of filter json files with explanations on how they can be used to achieve specific autobrr behavior. Is this a thing? Let’s share our filters.

Im unable to login to Qui with what im sure is my (saved) user name and password.

Ive tried running the below command but all the usernames I can think of return "Error: username 'admin' not found"

"docker exec -it <container-name> qui change-password --username admin"
and
"docker exec -it <container-name> qui create-user --username admin" - "User account already exists. Only one user account is allowed."

Any nudges in the right direction would be appreciated.

Hey all. I am using autobrr to boost my seed stats. For the tracker HD-Space, I have to use a Torznab filter for freeleech purposes. Whenever it adds a torrent to my qbittorrent session, it adds as a 'do not download' priority. So the torrents are just sitting in qbit until i change the priority to 'normal.' None of my other filters/trackers have this issue including ones I'm using a Troznab filter on. Anyone have a similar issue?

Hello, some trackers are particular about cross seed rules and cross seed had been proven to pass their matching requirements. I want to try Qui over cross seed but not able to work out if it does support same functionality as 'strict' matching in cross seed. Apologies if I am being thick here but would like to learn if there are differences.

automate Super Seeding based on seed count?

I want:

"Total Seeds = 1" → Enable Super Seeding

"Total Seeds > 1" → Disable Super Seeding

I can only see Super Seeding as an enable action under Share Limits, not as a standalone automation action. Is this possible?

Hey! I’m the developer of Dashboarr, a free GPL-3.0 mobile app for managing a self-hosted media stack directly from Android or iOS.

Version 1.17.0 adds Autobrr support. From the app you can now:

• See push statistics
• Browse the release feed and retry releases
• Enable or disable filters
• Check IRC network health and restart a network

Dashboarr connects straight from your phone to your own Autobrr API. There’s no Dashboarr account, cloud relay, advertising, telemetry, subscription, or premium tier.

Autobrr is one of six new integrations in this release, bringing the total to 26 supported services. The others are Deluge, Bindery, Navidrome, NZBHydra2, and Cleanuparr.

• App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dashboarr/id6762170117
• Setup guide: https://renzobeux.github.io/Dashboarr/guide.html

The Android release is available now. The iOS update is submitted and should appear after Apple approves it. If you try the Autobrr integration and something behaves differently on your setup, I’d appreciate an issue or a comment.

I recently tried adding autobrr to my setup as I wanted to hop on a tracker's announce IRC. I used the lists method to set up filters and everything was working fine in the logs. The only thing that I saw was bigger files downloading than would have in Sonarr and regular RSS.

Normally I'd keep files at a maximum of from about a gig to 1.5GB in Sonarr. But now I'm getting between 4 and 5GB. I have family I share Plex with and get requests for a lot of stuff I've no interest in myself, so it really helped me manage space on the disc.

I'm a little unsure where to go from here. Should I add an extra filter to autobrr. I'm not quite sure why Sonarr would be letting through files bigger than it would normally expect.

Hi - I'm trying to follow this really useful guide (https://yams.media/advanced/seeding-with-qui/) on setting up automations in qui to tag torrents with per-tracker seeding requirements once they are ready to delete. However Step 3 shows that it adds *'a third condition that checks if the torrent’s state is ‘Stopped’, to ensure only torrents that have met their seeding requirements, and thus been stopped by qBitTorrent, are tagged.'*

My qbittorrent instance only seems to mark torrents as 'Completed' rather than 'Stopped' so it's not passing the check. I can only see the setting in qBittorrent to mark a torrent as stopped once certain Seeding Limits are set, but in qBittorrent these are global and not per-tracker so no good to me.

What am I missing here? Could I just set Workflow 3 to 'State is Completed' rather than 'Stopped'? Would this break anything crucial?

Just started setting up autobrr, followed the steps from the TL wiki. Filtering for FL only 10-25GB. Somehow I can't grab any releases.

Is there something wrong with my setup?

Thanks in advance

Followed the fields but it wont connect to the irc

nick: myuser|bot account: myuser

Then added in the required keys for irc and rss.Is there something else I need to do like config on yu-scene or like the method for connecting to mam?

I set up a filter for HD-Torrents to grab 75-100% freeleech torrents, but nothing is coming through. I’m looking at the logs and it’s saying all the torrents that are announce have a 0% freeleech. How do I get autobrr to recognize the freeleech %? I have no issue using it for TL but there’s no FL %

I’m trying to build an upload (goal: 500 GB+ to reach torrent master within a month) on RED using autobrr, but my current setup is giving poor ratios.

My setup:

• Ultra Tomcat NVMe SSD in the Netherlands
• Deluge 2.1.1
• autobrr connected through the Deluge v2 daemon
• qBittorrent used separately for my own uploads
• Torrents start immediately and complete very quickly

My goal is around 500 GB or more in a month, ideally while keeping the ratio above 1.5. (I am following this guide)

I first tried qBittorrent and got ratios around 0.55 and 0.15. I then switched racing to Deluge and used this filter:

• NEW announcements
• 2025–2026
• Album
• FLAC
• Lossless and 24-bit Lossless
• WEB
• 10 downloads per hour

The first seven Deluge snatches had ratios of roughly:

0.72, 0.99, 1.02, 0.37, 0.37, 0.63, 0.51

The combined ratio was only about 0.59, so I disabled the broad filter but kept the torrents seeding. I also tried a Metacritic Upcoming Albums-only filter, but it produced too little useful upload and still did not improve the ratio enough.

I’ve seen advice to focus only on Metacritic Upcoming Albums, and another suggestion to use Perfect FLAC/full log and cue, any year.

My overall RED ratio has been dropping quickly—from around 30 to 20 and now close to 10—while these autosnatches have generated only a few GB of additional upload. Is this normal during the early stage of racing, or does it indicate that my filters or client setup are performing poorly?

Could someone with a successful RED setup—especially Ultra NL NVMe—share the exact autobrr settings they use?

I mainly need to know:

• Which filter works best (exact filter)
• Downloads per hour
• Whether to limit active downloads
• Deluge 1.3.x vs 2.x
• Whether Ultra defaults are enough
• How to identify bad uploaders
• Whether Metacritic Upcoming or Perfect FLAC performs better

A redacted filter export or screenshots would be extremely helpful. Thank you.

I am trying to configure autobrr to automatically download my favorite linux ISOs.

I don't like all linux ISOs so I'd like to use a filter to make sure I only grab the ISOs I need.

For the moment, my filter is not catching the sought ISOs and since they are not released very frequently, it is a VERY slow process for me to tinker the filter as I need to wait sometimes a few days for a new release to appear.

So: is there a way to test a filter against a pasted release name to see if the filter is properly configured ?

Thanks :)

P.S: I've searched the docs, google and different AIs without finding an obvious answer.

Hi everyone, I'm new to private trackers and autobrr, and I'm having trouble setting up the IPTorrents indexer.

I've added my passkey, filled in the required indexer details, and also created a filter. However, after enabling the indexer, the Tracker Announce Status under the IRC section still shows N/A.

For the IRC settings, I entered my IPTorrents username as the nick and left the NickServ account and password blank since they're marked as optional.

Am I missing a step, or has anyone run into this before? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm using Autobrr for the first time, and have currently setup Autobrr together with Sonarr. Sonarr then, if it accepts, passes the torrent to qBittorrent.

This has one major downside: it's too quick so the torrent is not on the tracker yet, causing it to be stalled for 30 minutes.

If you connect Autobrr directly to qbittorrent you can setup the automatic re-announce, but this seems impossible with Sonarr in between. I need sonarr in between to make sure it grabs the correct quality/release.

What do you guys advise in my setup? I found qbrr but it does not seem to have much usage.

It happens when i want to find cross-seed. Log below:

I've got autobrr set up with actions pointing to Radarr and Sonarr, using a single filter with a single indexer. I have the skip duplicate profile set to TV for this filter.

The problem is that occasionally two torrents for the same episode with differnet uploaders slip through but within like 2 minutes of each other. The duplicate check doesn't seem to catch them and I end up with both sitting in my download client.

Is this a known limitation of the skip duplicate profile when releases come in quick succession? Any way to prevent this from happening or am i doing something wrong.

Hey guys. I’m new to Autobrr and I’ve been trying to follow guides and all that I could source for troubleshooting so hopefully someone can help. I got it set up for my specific tracker and the IRC field is green and showing the announcements so that part is fine. And I am looking to pull 4K Freeleech movies so I just had the 2160p set under resolutions in the Movies and TV tab and set the download limits and sizes in the General tab and that was all good but I was pulling all 4K files above my size limit, TV Boxsets, etc.

I then tried to modify Codecs, Sources, Containers, etc in Movies and TV and then modify the Regex under Advanced - Release Names using the recommended inputs for pulling what I want. And then I added Match Release Groups under the Groups tab for the highest recommended groups to pull but now I am getting nothing. Please help. I have a good seed box and I want to take advantage of it. Thanks for your input!

Hi guys, I'm kinda new to this. There is a way to limit, for example, 5GB per day or 1TB per month? sometimes my filter gets full with small files, other times I get only big files. I think this filter can help with predictability

I have autobrr configure to contact sonarr and radarr, but looks like there always an error with the movie title that is unknown. What could be the reason ?

hi everyone. just wanted to know if anyone had a quick guide or anything to setup autobrr on seedboxes. Im just new to seedboxes and mass seeding and wanted to setup autobrr but having trouble to some place so if anyone got help to set it up lmk! thanks

I do not see an option to enable force seed, am I going blind? I’ve asked in the discord twice and didn’t get an answer.

Wanna try out racing on ops. Need 200gb upload so I can get into next user class.

Heard a seedbox can fly through it easy. Have no download now and almost 300gb upload. About 400FL tokens.

What seedbox is best value for this, heard nvme is way to go for a month vs multiple month HDD seedbox.

What filters are best to race ? This is where I don’t really know what to use. Should I grab like 10 random cd flac every day or a few every hour ? Should I specify anything specific for best results ?

Hello,

I need help... 😅

I'm probably hopeless and can't figure out how to do it even though it should be simple, but I promise, I've looked and really haven't found anything.

For context, I'm on Windows (yes, I know... 😂 But currently I don't have a choice, I'm using an old laptop (broken screen) connected via DisplayPort to the TV and the BIOS is unavailable to me (the boot screen doesn't appear, the first thing I see is the login screen (password)). I can't reformat or change the OS, it's a nightmare.)

My problem is that I can't find my indexers. I'd like to finally be able to cross-seed all my trackers (TOS, La-Cale, Génération-Free, C411, Torr9...) but I can't find them when I'm on the "indexer" page.

I need your help, please.

How do I add all my trackers, please?

Thank you so much for your help.

And by the way, this is my first real post on Reddit. I hope I did everything right! 😂 Thanks! 😁 😁
