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!
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
You should post this over on one of the Self Hosted communities. I’m sure they would appreciate this as well.
Crosspost to !selfhosted@lemmy.world (instead of duplicating, I mean)
It just duplicates it anyway, doesn’t it?
Does it? It links them together so maybe it doesn’t show up twice in your feed? Let’s test it.

If you’re using the lemmy website, you should only see crossposted posts once in your feed. App support varies IIRC
Thank you for the tip, I will!
This is sick. An android TV app, while I’m sure a low priority, would make this a home run for me. Great work.
It’s definitely in the scope, as is the primary way I consume media, too

This sounds incredible. My biggest gripe about moving from Plex to Jellyfin is that now to make requests, my family has to go to my Jellyseerr site. On Plex they could just add things to the watchlist, so that would be amazing to bring to Jellyfin.
I like using other sites like imdb, trakt.tv for my watchlist, and then hooking up sonarr/radarr to monitor them. I’m not sure if it’s feasible for your friends/family to do private lists and provide auth for you - sounds like a UX nightmare for them unless they are also technical - but, if they make their watchlist public on those sites, you can probably subscribe your tool to them easily.
That is actually a great idea, but they are not remotely technical. Anything more than a couple clicks is asking a lot haha
is there a demo instance for this
It uses Svelte, cool!
Love me some Svelte
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.

Maybe I’m dumb but what is the name from? Doesn’t make sense to me
pronounced “reaver”, basically means pillager/robber
it’s an old english word for raider/plundering, used in Firefly with the spelling of Reaver
Oh cool, thanks. I was unaware of this spelling, knew the firefly version though
Hey, I’d love to help you with UI. How do i contact you
Hey, sounds amazing. I’ll get back home on Monday, you can contact me through GitHub or in discord (@imnotasmurf)
Great! we’ll make it user intuitive and delightful to use.
Anyone who’s used the product: Please share feedback and suggestions on your experience using it
Looking forward your Android TV port!
I’m not a UI designer
You are now!
Is Linux desktop app also planned?
Shouldn’t be much extra work!
That would be great

how this compare to jellyseerr?
The biggest difference is that you can stream content without leaving the website (through jellyfin integration)
Is there a demo I can visit?
