Sonarr

A TV series collection manager that automatically monitors RSS feeds for new episodes and downloads them via Usenet or BitTorrent. It renames and organizes files, fetches metadata, and keeps your media library structured.

What You Can Do After Deployment

  1. Visit your domain — Sonarr needs 1–2 minutes for initial database setup; if you see a 404 page, wait and refresh. No login required by default; configure authentication under Settings > General
  2. Set the Root Folder — go to Settings > Media Management > Add Root Folder and enter /tv
  3. Add download clients — connect your Usenet (SABnzbd, NZBGet) or BitTorrent (qBittorrent, Transmission, Deluge) client under Settings > Download Clients
  4. Add indexers — configure Usenet indexers or torrent trackers under Settings > Indexers
  5. Add TV series — search and add shows; Sonarr monitors for new episodes and downloads them automatically
  6. Set quality profiles — define preferred resolution and file size under Settings > Profiles
