Usage

If you are coming from Radarr or Sonarr you will find that MediaManager does things a bit differently. Instead of completely automatically downloading and managing your media, MediaManager focuses on providing an easy-to-use interface to guide you through the process of finding and downloading media. Advanced features like multiple qualities of a show/movie necessitate such a paradigm shift. So here is a quick step-by-step guide to get you started:

Downloading/Requesting a show

1

Add the show

Add a show on the "Add Show" page. After adding the show you will be redirected to the show's page.

2

Request season(s)

Click the "Request Season" button on the show's page. Select one or more seasons that you want to download.

3

Select qualities

Select the "Min Quality" — the minimum resolution of the content to download. Select the "Wanted Quality" — the maximum resolution of the content to download.

4

Submit request

Click "Submit request". This is not the last step: an administrator must first approve your request for download. Only after approval will the requested content be downloaded.

5

Finished

Congratulation! You've downloaded a show (after admin approval).
