Mediarium is a self-hosted media manager. Find a movie or show, and it searches your Usenet and torrent indexers, downloads the best release, unpacks it, names it and puts it in your library, ready for Plex, Jellyfin or Emby.
It does the jobs of Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, SABnzbd, a torrent client and Bazarr in one app: one container, one web page, one search bar, one thing to update and back up.
Privacy: there are no ads, and Mediarium sends nothing about you or your library anywhere. It asks once whether you want to share a small anonymous message a day (a random ID, the version and rough device sizes) so the project can see which devices are popular: it is off until you say Yes, the numbers are public at mediarium.app/stats, and the code is open. What exactly is sent.
Mediarium is new. Movies and TV work end to end, and so do music, ebooks and audiobooks once you switch them on. It's used daily, but expect some rough edges. FEATURES.md says what works and what doesn't yet.

About these screenshots. They were taken in demo mode, so every movie, show, artist, poster and cover in them is made up (the books are old public-domain classics). That's on purpose: the pictures don't use anyone else's titles or artwork. In your own copy, Mediarium shows the real posters, artwork and details for whatever you search for and add.
Mediarium runs in Docker on any 64-bit Linux server or NAS (amd64 or arm64).
mkdir mediarium && cd mediarium
curl -fsSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rdborg/Mediarium/main/docker/docker-compose.yml
# open docker-compose.yml and set PUID, PGID, TZ and your folders
docker compose up -d
Then open http://<your-server-ip>:8264 and follow the setup wizard.
The install guide covers every line of docker-compose.yml: folders, PUID/PGID, why one /data folder makes imports instant, updating, backups and a docker run alternative.
Step-by-step guides: Synology (including running next to Radarr, Sonarr and SABnzbd) · Unraid · QNAP · Linux. Coming from the *arr apps? See Move from Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr and SABnzbd.
Mediarium comes as one Docker image, and everything that can run Docker runs the same image with the same settings. There is no separate build or app-store version to wait for.
| Platform | How |
|---|---|
| Any 64-bit Linux server, NAS or Raspberry Pi (Intel/AMD or ARM64) | Docker Compose, or one docker run command (the image is on GitHub and on Docker Hub as rdborg/mediarium) |
| Synology, QNAP, Unraid, TrueNAS SCALE, CasaOS/ZimaOS, OpenMediaVault, Portainer | Paste the same compose file into their Docker screen: guides |
| Windows PC or Mac | Docker Desktop, fine for trying it out |
There are no one-click app-store entries for now, and no separate Windows or macOS versions.
Details: What runs where.
Everything is in docs/: installing, indexers, downloads and the torrent port, quality profiles, subtitles, media servers, family accounts, and reference pages for the API, environment variables and settings.
Mediarium is free, open source and has no ads. If it saves you time, you can buy a coffee on Ko-fi. The app works exactly the same either way.
Contributions are welcome. Start with CONTRIBUTING.md and follow the Code of Conduct.
Mediarium does not host, provide or link to any content. It is a tool for managing media you have the right to access. You are responsible for the indexers you add and what you download: read LEGAL.md.
Mediarium is free software under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 (AGPL-3.0). You can use it, change it and share it. If you offer a changed version to others as a network service, you must share your source code under the same licence.
The licence covers the code, not the name. "Mediarium" and the Mediarium logo are the names I use for this project. You're welcome to fork it, change it and share your version under the AGPL, but if you share a changed version, please give it a different name and logo so people can tell it apart from this one. Saying it's based on Mediarium is fine, and appreciated.
