Description

Overseerr is a media request and discovery tool. It lets you and your media server users browse and request movies and TV shows, which are then automatically sent to Radarr and Sonarr for downloading.

Installation

Overseerr is available as a one-click install from your Bytesized dashboard.

Getting Started

After installation, access Overseerr through the link on your dashboard. The setup wizard will guide you through:

  1. Sign in with your Plex account
  2. Connect your Plex server
  3. Connect Radarr for movie requests
  4. Connect Sonarr for TV show requests

Overseerr will auto-detect your Radarr and Sonarr instances running on the same Bytesized box.

Tips and Tricks

Sharing with Friends

Overseerr lets your Plex users request content without needing access to Sonarr or Radarr. Share the Overseerr URL with your users and they can browse, discover, and request media through a clean interface.
