Hey ya all,
Reiverr is a project of mine that I’ve decided to release to the public today. It’s a self-hosted website similar to the content discovery app Overseerr, with the added features of managing and watching your content library through Sonarr, Radarr and Jellyfin integrations. The motivation behind the project was the lack of a unified modern UI that could be used to discover, manage and watch content in a single place.
Currently, the project is in very early stages of development, but it is mostly usable in its current state. If you want to try it out, you can find the installation instructions in the project’s GitHub page:
https://github.com/aleksilassila/reiverr
Also: For the project to reach its fullest potential, it could use contributions! If you’d like to contribute code, designs (I’m not a UI designer, please help me), documentation or anything else, first of all, thank you!, and you can find an extensive list of planned features & fixes at the Reiverr Taskboard. It’s also a great place to just get a sense of what’s being done if you’re curious.
Cheers guys!

Developing a UI to combine several similar projects together
Makes a beautiful interface
“I am not a UI designer”
If it looks like a duck, walks like duck, and quacks like a duck. They might just be a UI designer.
This is the second project i’ve seen this week where the dev claimed that there is no knowledge about UI/UX and it’s just better than anything i’ve seen.
I start to think UI/UX classes may have shifted in a direction no actual user likes to use. That would explain some things.
Beautiful project! One feature request/ question: Would it be possible to have a config file/gui with the api keys instead of having them in the compose file?
Yes! This is a planned feature once I get the settings page implemented.
Does this combine all of the “arrs” AND overseer/jellyseer?! Thank you so much for such an amazing creation! Let’s all remember to thank our open source contributors for their hard and fruitful work.
Amazing! This looks gorgeous!
The screenshots probably shouldn’t include copyrighted movies though, so it doesn’t get taken down from GitHub. You can replace them with Blender Studio projects https://studio.blender.org/films/
(Also there’s a small typo it says steam instead of stream on GitHub)
Good points, thank you!
Edit: Do you guys recon it can be taken down even though all the images are from themoviedb.org or youtube?
I think since it’s a piracy related app it’s best not to risk it. It happened to YouTube-dl
Looking forward your Android TV port!
is there a demo instance for this
Anyway for this to work on Android TV?
Anyway for this to work on Android TV?
I’m looking to release an android tv as soon as all the basic features are implemented!
I’ll admit to being a little nervous to stand up something on my server that’s explicitly named for looting/pillaging, just in case I’m the mark and not the operator.
EDIT: Why is the app having my browser try to load googleads and doubleclick.net ads? I assume the play.google.com and youtube.com integrations are for some additional content?
Haha, I found the name brilliant :D
The google crap is from a youtube iframe found in the frontpage that displays trailers in the background for the showcased movies. So far I haven’t found any other way to play YouTube videos inline unfortunately.
Consider linking to one of the piped instances, they function as a youtube proxy: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped/wiki/Instances
Thanks, I’ll look into that
Maybe I’m dumb but what is the name from? Doesn’t make sense to me
pronounced “reaver”, basically means pillager/robber
This looks very cool. One of my biggest issues with Jellyfin is its UI. So I just stay with Plex. There are some other features that keep me in Plex but it’s mainly the UI. I’ll be starring this and keeping an eye on it! Well done.
For me it’s remote streaming. I have friends and family on my plex and it’s so easy to get them going. Getting jellyfin isn’t even possible on devices they use along with even making remote streaming work and having them be able to figure out how to make it work
This is also my gripe with Jellyfin, sharing libraries and movies to any people is a big deal something Plex is good at.
I prefer the simpler Jellyfin UI; Plex has too much going on.
Yess the Jellyfin UI is so buggy, don’t know why…
I’m not a UI designer
You are now!
Is there a demo I can visit?
This is similar to an idea I had some time ago but it was too difficult for me to implement. I’m happy to see a similar program being develop. Though using Jellyfin, Sonarr, Radarr, seems too difficult for the average user, with so many interconnected programs. I wish there was a simpler alternative.
My idea was:
A program that combines the features of Mediarepo and Fopnu, connected to a metadata database like MusicBrainz. The integration with a metadata database would enable users to automatically curate their file collections and contribute to the database by curating files that haven’t been curated yet. This would allow for efficient organization and easy searching of files based on their metadata. Users would also have the ability to create collections and download entire collections instead of searching for individual files.
Can we have some i2p integration too?
Do I need radarr and sonarr and jellyfin to use this tool? Ngl Im confused but that looks mesmeraizing and I simply want to try it out. Im a newbie in making torrents “pro”, I mostly torrent things but want to go mentioned pro mode.
Right now you’d need all of them, but I’ll make them optional in the near future 👍
You should post this over on one of the Self Hosted communities. I’m sure they would appreciate this as well.
