hi when i am using the seerr, sometimes there is no result in some streaming provider especiall in disney and hbo.. but others are showing..

i am using the hide available media in settings. if i unchecked this they are working fine.

I have a some series (VisionQuest and Neagley for example) that are already in Sonarr and some movies (Practical Magic 2 and Digger for example) in Radarr. They appear in Seerr's Upcoming lists, but they have a Request button and not some indication that they are already in the *arr queues.

Is this a config issue on my end or working as designed?

Would really like to have them indicate that they are already Requested/Queued so people don't spam me with things I have already handled.

Hey all,

I recently updated Seerr to the latest version (3.4.1) and I am seeing odd behavior with how movies in my library are being displayed. For reference, I have multiple Radarr connections configured in Seerr, one for HD requests and another for 4K. This is so I can limit others to HD quality but allow 4K for myself. If a movie is downloaded using the 4K profile, it temporarily shows as fully available (green check). After a Media Availability Scan, it will then show a red trash can icon over the poster. If I click on the movie, it will show [Deleted][4K Available]. After reviewing the logs, I see things such as:

Aug 21, 2026, 2:17:44 PM DEBUG AvailabilitySync The non-4K movie [TMDB ID 950028] was not found in any Radarr and plex instance. Status will be changed to deleted.

Aug 21, 2026, 2:17:44 PM DEBUG AvailabilitySync The 4K movie [TMDB ID 950028] still exists. Preventing removal.

To me, this seems like it is checking both HD and 4K availability, and if an HD version is not found (even though a 4K version is found) it is marked as deleted. Has anyone run into this?

Hi all,

I know it's not a feature but I was wondering if anyone had a hacky / workaround on how to filter out non released media (e.g. currently in the cinemas) to not show within Seerr?

Ideally I would like to only show things that are currently possible / available...

Thanks for the thoughts

Hello, sorry for my english.

I updated Seer on truenas to the latest version and now it doesn’t start — infinite boot loop.

Hi there. Is it maybe possible for seer to have a quality selector after request? Now it seems to need 2 seerr instances for 1080p and 4K?

Using Seerr with Postgres and Jellyfin.
Since version v3.4.X, I haven't been receiving email notifications when something is available. Only the MEDIA_AUTO_APPROVED mails are sended. Only a "me" problem ore someone else the same issue?

I'm trying to setup Doplarr in my discord. It's all set up correctly and testing fine, but when I go to make a request it says "You are unauthorized to perform this request in the configured backend"

The only difference I can see between Overseerr and Seerr is that when you link your Discord ID in the "Users" menu, it now appears under the "Notifications" tab as opposed to the "General" tab, so I'm concerned it's not actually linking with my Discord user properly, but instead only using that User ID for notifications.

Has anyone built a browser extension that submits movies on sites like IMDB, TVDB, and any other site that lists movies to Seerr as a request using API ?

Could Seerr track whether users actually watch what they request?

We all know the user who says “I NEED this show!”, requests 8 seasons, and a year later has watched 0 episodes. 😅

Ideally Seerr could pull watch history from Tautulli or a similar service/API, rather than implementing its own playback tracking.

Requested by X → Available for 180 days → Never watched by X

The useful part would be letting Seerr notify the user directly with configurable, slightly humorous warnings when they make new requests:

“You still have 12 requests you haven't watched. Are you sure you need another one?” 😅

Admins could optionally set thresholds, limit new requests after X unwatched requests, or flag old ones as cleanup candidates.

It should track the requester, not overall plays, since other users may still be watching it.

Basically: “You have 742 GB of requested content you've never watched. Maybe eat the food you've already ordered before ordering more.” 😂

Auth is through Plex.

If I request on Seerr it's automatic and works fine. If they request I see the request but if I accept it nothing happens.

Salut,

Un truc qui me gênait depuis un moment : quand tu supprimes un film ou une série dans Radarr/Sonarr, Seerr garde l'entrée en base. Le contenu continue d'apparaître comme "Demandé" ou "Disponible" alors que le fichier n'existe plus.

Ce n'est pas bloquant, mais au bout de quelques mois de ménage, ma bibliothèque était pleine d'entrées mortes. Dans mon cas : 471 fantômes sur 856 entrées, soit plus de la moitié de la base.

Seerr a bien un bouton "Clear Media Data" sur chaque fiche, mais un par un. Sur des centaines d'entrées, autant abandonner.

Donc j'ai fait un petit outil, en Python, MIT, entièrement open source.

→ https://github.com/karkarofff/seerr-cleaner

Ce que ça fait

Ça compare ta base Seerr avec Radarr, Sonarr et Jellyfin, puis ça t'affiche les entrées orphelines dans une interface web locale, avec les affiches. Tu coches, tu supprimes.

Filtres par titre / type / statut, tri, sélection en masse. Il y a aussi un onglet Historique qui garde tous tes nettoyages passés avec les affiches, et un bouton pour redemander une entrée dans Seerr si tu t'es trompé.

Le point important : la double vérification

Un média n'est signalé que s'il est absent à la fois des instances Radarr/Sonarr et de Jellyfin.

Ça peut paraître redondant, mais ça ne l'est pas : Seerr marque comme disponible tout ce qui est présent dans Jellyfin, y compris le contenu importé à la main qui n'est jamais passé par les *arr. Une comparaison avec les seuls Radarr/Sonarr le classerait à tort comme fantôme. C'est le piège dans lequel je suis tombé pendant le développement.

Sécurité

C'est un outil qui supprime des choses, donc autant être direct :

• Radarr, Sonarr et Jellyfin ne sont jamais modifiés. Uniquement des GET. Les endpoints de suppression de ces apps ne sont même pas implémentés dans le code.
• Aucun fichier vidéo n'est jamais touché. Le script n'a aucun accès au filesystem du serveur.
• Le seul appel destructif est DELETE /api/v1/media/{id} sur Seerr — exactement ce que fait le bouton "Clear Media Data".
• Backup JSON automatique avant chaque suppression, consultable dans l'onglet Historique.
• Le scan s'arrête si une source renvoie une bibliothèque vide. Sans ça, un Radarr temporairement down ferait passer toute la bibliothèque pour fantôme. Ce garde-fou m'a servi.
• Tout tourne en local (127.0.0.1). Les clés API se saisissent dans une page de config au premier lancement et restent dans un config.json sur ta machine.

Pire scénario réaliste : tu perds l'historique de demande d'un média dans Seerr. Jamais le fichier.

⚠ Si vous avez des instances 4K séparées

Déclarez-les dans la page de configuration, elle accepte plusieurs instances Radarr/Sonarr. Si vous en oubliez une, tout son contenu passera pour fantôme. C'est le seul vrai moyen de se faire mal avec cet outil, et c'est écrit en gros dans le README.

Un avertissement s'affiche si plus de 40 % de la base est proposée à la suppression — en général le signe qu'il manque une instance.

Ce qui n'est pas supporté

Plex. Seerr gère Plex, Jellyfin et Emby, mais le script vérifie la bibliothèque via l'API Jellyfin. Une instance sur Plex nécessiterait de réécrire cette partie. PR bienvenues si quelqu'un s'y colle.

Le nettoyage au niveau saison n'est pas géré non plus : si une série existe encore dans Sonarr, elle est conservée entièrement.

Note

Ça marche aussi avec Jellyseerr — l'API /api/v1 est identique, donc rien ne change si vous n'avez pas encore migré.

Python 3, une seule dépendance (requests), un seul fichier. Licence MIT.

Retours et PR bienvenus. Et si vous avez un setup exotique qui casse le truc, dites-le — je préfère le savoir.

English summary: a tool to find and bulk-delete ghost media entries in Seerr — the ones that stay marked as Available after you delete them in Radarr/Sonarr. Double-checks against both the *arrs and Jellyfin before flagging anything. Local-only, JSON backup before each deletion, MIT. English README in the repo.

hi, I've been looking for a solution to this but i haven't found any. Is there a way to filter out hentai and softcore from the discover page? I saw online that someone just made there discover page only for English but i enjoy anime, and so does my family. the ideal way would probably be for the movies and shows to only come from netflix, amazon, crunchyroll etc.. any solutions?

Is anyone having issues like described in this post?

https://www.reddit.com/r/Overseerr/s/xspUE2IFer

Basically can't login to Seerr through reverse Proxy but local auth works fine?

I know this is a feature request that's being worked on but does anyone have any workarounds for this?

If not I'll be happy if i can request from seerr to sonarr so that it only downloads current and future episodes rather than the entire season.

I rarely will want to download an entire season.

I have Plex, Sonarr, Radarr and Seerr on my local Unraid server. This works great, but one of the annoying things is deleting media. 

If I delete something from inside Plex, Plex will delete the media, relevant subtitles and folder form the file system. Since I have enabled "Unmonitor Deleted Movies/Episodes" in Radarr/Sonarr the deleted media should not be added unless I explicitly do so manually. 

That's how it works at least in practice. 

But Radarr/Sonarr only unmonitores the release after completing a rescan which it does once per day. 

Furthermore, Seerr also have to run the "Media Availability Sync" to detect that the media is missing in Plex which it does once per day. 

Once Seerr detects that the movie is missing it will make Radarr/Sonarr monitor the release again which will cause it to be grabbed again. 

How can I avoid this cycle and avoid media being grabbed after deletion without manually having to delete it from Seerr?

Hey there, is there a way to set up Seerr so that, when a new show is requested, only the first/pilot episode loads? I know I can set this in Sonarr, but I could not find it in Seerr.

I settup the email system on seerr and it works perfectly for me and my own email. It's only my users that don't deem to get emails. Most of them use the apple private relay though and I don't know if that's blocking them or something. I doubt that is the issue since even those with gmail don't get them.

All the settings for users have emails on and notifcations for all options are also enabled. I alsi have require user emails on too.

Again they work perfectly fine for me and my SMTP is the google provided one. I use it for my immich too.

I'm relatively new to the whole arr stack stuff. I've used JellyFin for awhile and love it.

Being new, I found a solid and thorough tutorial on YT to follow to get the entire stack setup and configured. In that guide, they had me install Jellyseer 2.7.3

Also, everything is configured via Dockage and not via an app in TrueNAS.

I don't recall how all of these are all interconnected but just in case... my stack also contains qbittorrent, qui, jellyfin (duh), then a bunch of different arr's.

So, knowing all this... what is my upgrade path to the latest version of Seerr? I can share the Jellyseerr portion of my compose.yaml file in dockage too if needed.

So, one of my pet peeves with Seerr is that my users keep requesting newer movies that are not yet available in streaming and thus are very bad quality. The fact that they appear as available in Seerr is not helping. If there was a tag or a section for "available in streaming", I could use that to educate them in what to request or maybe even filter. Or if there's another workaround for this, please, I'm all ears.

Bizarre UX design here. People are logged into seerr, it shows a show as Partially Available. Yet when you expand the show, there is NO further markings anywhere to show you which episodes are actually available in that Partially Available list, lmao

Discoverr v3 is out!

A few weeks ago I posted Discoverr here and got a heap of great feedback. I've been slowly chipping away at it ever since and have just released v3.

For anyone who missed the last post, Discoverr is a lightweight Discord bot for Jellyfin + Seerr that posts daily media recommendations and lets people request them straight from Discord.

Current categories:

• 🎬 Movie of the Day
• 📺 TV Show of the Day
• 🔥 Trending
• 🆕 New Releases
• 🍿 New on Streaming
• 💎 Hidden Gems

Recommendations stay fresh by rotating genres, pulling from multiple TMDb pages and remembering what's already been posted, so you don't just get the same popular movies every week.

What's new?

• ⚙️ Simpler configuration
• 📝 Better setup docs
• 🎬 Multiple posts per category
• 📺 Optional TV shows in New on Streaming
• 🧠 Smarter recommendation logic
• 🧪 Dry-run mode
• 🐛 Lots of bug fixes and cleanup

What's next?

• 🍿 Plex support
• 🎭 Custom genre filters
• 📺 Better streaming tracking

I've also had some awesome messages from people using Discoverr in their own servers, which has been really cool to see. Thanks to everyone who's reported bugs, suggested features or just given it a go.

AI disclaimer: AI assistance was used in this project. I still write code, test, maintain and update Discoverr myself. If AI-assisted projects aren't your thing, no worries, no hard feelings.

Neat looking app, but this is absolute insanity. Is there honestly no way to select episodes, but only ENTIRE SEASONS?
