Flemmarr VS Emby

The arr stack has api for each product so setting them from a config file is possible. I use flemarr for this. Writting the file the way you want can be tideous but once you get it right you can reproduce your setup so much quicker

Define configuration of all instances in a single configuration file in a well-defined format. Similar to Flemmarr, but instead of using API keys and values as-is, defines a configuration interface that is easier to define by hand.

Maybe check out https://github.com/Flemmarr/Flemmarr which could help configure the newly setup services automatically. I'm also working on some improvements for it in the background :).

Can't go into details right now, but how is it different from Flemarr ?

Introducing Flemmarr, a little script packaged in a Docker image that you can simply add to your docker-compose.yml to apply a static config file.

I used to use Plex until I found Emby. I find Emby easier to use and it does the same thing. Just putting this here as a fourth option for OP. :)

Media Server: EMBY

I use https://emby.media along with private trackers and Usenet.

You can find it here! I have both installed, but I generally keep EMBY turned off until I want to play around with it. You can have both running at once and both accessing the same folders. You can check it out for free.

Emby: Offers premium features with some behind a membership.

I went with Emby, personally. Plex, Jellyfin, etc are all good choices too! :)

For clarity: Emby is still mostly open source (the source code is right here: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby). Emby started incorporating closed source plugins that you only get with the paid version of Emby in order to try and get revenue.

I used Plex until I found Emby, which is far easier to set up and works very well with all my media.
