I have a Plex server running on Mac OSX. Whenever I want to add media, I remotely connect into the Mac, login to my private tracker, download the torrent, wait for it to finish, then update my Plex library.

I'm hopeful that there's an easier way. I'm imagining a way I can remotely tell the Plex server what I want to watch and it takes it from there. Does such a thing exist?

Oh boyo! You can have literally everything automated. All you’d need to do is search a movie or show and click request and then bam it will appear on plex.

How?

Arr stack (as everyone is commenting here with)

Prowlarr (to pick your torrent indexers), sonarr (for shows), radarr (for movies) and overseerr for requests (this one’s optional but it’s so nice).

Add API codes from your sonarr and your radarr into prowlarr (and overseerr if you go with it) and add your qbittorrent web ui server to all of them.

I port forwarded overseerr so that it can be accessible by web and made a web app to it on my wife’s phone. Now while she’s bored at work she can scroll through recent releases on all streaming sites in overseerr and pick what she likes and click “request”. The requests get automatically approved and my prowlarr starts searching and sends the download to sonarr or radarr, which automatically moves everything into their right folders into my plex library.

I come home and open plex and bam my new releases are there, ready to be watched.

Idk if you knew this, but LunaSea can add things to Sonarr, Radarr, and Lidarr from both Android and iOS using the APIs for the Servarr apps. You can also send notifications to your phone via LunaSea if one of your Docker containers goes down using Uptime Kuma.

Neat! I didn’t know that. I’ll have to check it out.

I just started using soulseek and it seems to be a lot better than what I could source through lidarr as I'm not in any music-heavy private trackers like RED and the public ones only maybe have top-40 type artists available.

Now I wish I could integrate the two because I hate having to do everything manually again along with needing to run everything through MusicBrainz Picard so that it's all tagged correctly.

Rutracker has a lot of music, as far as public trackers are concerned. One downside is that they package a lot of it as image+.cue, which is annoying to deal with

Check out Soularr, pretty new, scripts to integrate slskd and lidarr, works great for me paired with Deezer downloading through arr-scripts.
