Sickbeard

⚠️ Sickbeard is deprecated on Bytesized. It has been superseded by Sonarr, which is actively maintained and offers far better integration with modern download clients, indexers and Plex. Sickbeard remains installable for users who need it, but new installations should use Sonarr.

Sickbeard is a PVR application that automatically searches for and downloads TV show episodes, and manages your TV library.

Tips and tricks

Making content available in Plex

Content downloaded via Sickbeard will not automatically appear in Plex. Move your data to ~/media/TV Shows/ or ~/media/Movies/ depending on the content type.

If you have Deluge installed, you can also run Filebot manually:

python ~/.config/deluge/filebot.py nothing . ~/path/to/content
