Fellow hackers,<p>Media Hoarder is celebrating its 2nd birthday today and it finally supports tv series with the freshly released v1.4.0.<p>Here&#x27;s a video showcasing the new features: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch&#x2F;3qfb5UWJrdQ" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch&#x2F;3qfb5UWJrdQ</a><p>Development wise I&#x27;ve been joined by an individual named <i>kolbdog323</i> providing lots of feedback and requests over multiple months which I&#x27;m truly grateful of, because Media Hoarder is still an absolute side-project developed by a father of two in his limited spare time :D<p>Please feel free to discuss features, development and sideproject-y things, I&#x27;m really curious!<p>Media Hoarder Website: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;media.hoarder.software" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;media.hoarder.software</a><p>Blog post &quot;2nd Birthday - TV Series Support&quot;: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;media.hoarder.software&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2nd-birthday-tv-series-support" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;media.hoarder.software&#x2F;blog&#x2F;2nd-birthday-tv-series-s...</a><p>GitHub project: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;theMK2k&#x2F;Media-Hoarder">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;theMK2k&#x2F;Media-Hoarder</a><p>cheers<p>-- MK2k

So can I &quot;cast&quot; content managed in this system? Does it integrate with Jellyfin? Or is this STRICTLY about managing the files + metadata and you&#x27;re still expected to use it alongside Plex&#x2F;Jellyfish&#x27;s own metadata management?<p>I found it surprisingly hard to answer this question poking around at the website and links shared in this thread.

From a former obsessive media hoarder of over a decade, to my fellow media hoarders, my sincere advice: give up. Just stop. Delete it all and embrace streaming or ad hoc torrent if you need it. All of this hoarding is just not worth your time.

Would it be possible to import titles as a text list, instead of requiring files?<p>I&#x27;m not a hoarder, but I do have a (very) long Excel file of movies and documentaries that I want to watch or have already watched. Most of them are available on streaming sites or for rent&#x2F;download on demand.<p>You&#x27;ve got a great IMDb scraper and filtering UI. That&#x27;s all I really need! :)

This looks cool but I was thrown by how the heatmaps were organized; having seasons as rows and episodes as columns would be more natural to me.

I just _refreshed_ my setup replacing my shield and trying to get Emby and Kodi working together…<p>This looks great especially since I have complete collections of various sci if stuff I loved growing up (Star Trek: TNG, Star Gate). The big thing for me is how this supports sitting on the couch and looking for something to watch.

I <i>think</i> this may be one of the wares I looked at when I was hoping to build a catalog of at least my visual media. Something in the sense of &quot;I have <i>this</i> on a DVD, I have <i>that</i> on Blu-Ray&quot; or &quot;I have this as an .mp4.&quot; However, this was complicated by looking for something open-source enough that I could stick my fingers in the database and go from there to bring the catalog, or something like it, to a webpage.

Has anyone rolled this into a docker container yet?<p>Would you like me to share if I can&#x27;t find one and wind up doing it myself?

Thanks so much for posting this. Instant bookmark.<p>Do you plan on writing comparisons with other tools like Jellyfin and Kyoo?

I&#x27;m more of a streamer and used to things like JustWatch and like it a lot. But your solution provides such an intuitive, comprehensive and complete UX at a really amazing speed. Like IMDB and JustWatch combined on steroids. Kudos!

Going up against the *arrs is no small feat. What sets you apart?

It would be interesting to integrate it with Trakt data so I can sync the watched &#x2F; watchlist from my Trakt library and find new movies and series to watch.

My personal thoughts;<p>When there are quite a few well-established media storage&#x2F;player solutions&#x2F;toolings, you should look into starting your marketing page with why you are different or better than the others. Most reasons for people moving between tools is the lack of the features in the ones that users are using and hoping it is in the new one.<p>Of course, if you can get a lot of testimonials then that should work better.

Can it save metadata in nfo files so that kodi can read them? Kodi scraper is really inaccurate imo.

Interesting license choice. Where&#x27;d you find it&#x2F;what motivated you to choose it?

So, like, this is for pirated movies and TV shows, right? This and all the alternatives mentioned in the comments too?<p>Or are people really ripping DVDs and Blu-Rays from huge personal collections?

This really needs some explanation, in text, of what it&#x27;s actually doing and what media means here.
