v1.18.0

Awesome New Stuff

Radarr & Sonarr Sync

We can now sync status from Radarr & Sonarr directly. If you had monitored items in Radarr/Sonarr before setting up Overseerr, this will sync their status! This also helps clean up some conditions where show status didn't match up exactly!

🚨 You must enable sync for each Radarr/Sonarr server you wish to sync in their respective settings page! 🚨

Because we now can track your media in Radarr/Sonarr, that means we can also add things like links directly to your instances from inside Overseerr!

By default, this will generate a link using your connection information. If you want to use a different external URL, you can now set one in the Radarr/Sonarr settings!

Radarr/Sonarr Activity Queue Sync

We can now also sync your activity in Radarr/Sonarr into the manage panel for all media. This also updates the activity status badge for media to show "Processing..." when there is activity on it.

Direct links to play media on Plex!

Media items will now feature a new button if we find it on your Plex server. Clicking on it takes you directly to the item in your Plex library! This works for both standard and 4K versions of your content!

Thanks, @ankarhem!

Manually mark media as available

In the rare case that your sync is not correctly marking an item as available but you are certain it's actually available, you can click the new "Mark as available" buttons in the media management panels.

Edit user permissions in bulk

This release includes the ability to edit user permissions in bulk directly from the user list. Thank @hmnd for this!

Change user's display names

If your users are all still stuck with their Plex emails as their usernames, you can manually change them now by editing their display name in their settings. This will affect the displayed name everywhere in Overseeerr, including notifications. Thanks again, @ankarhem!

Plex server dropdown to help you fill in your Plex settings

During setup and in your plex settings, there is a new dropdown that you can use to help you find your plex server's internal and external address directly from the plex.tv API. This one is from @chriscpritchard! Thanks!

New tool to help request series that don't have a TVDB ID correctly set on TMDb

When the series you were requesting was brand new and no one had yet filled in the external ID on TMDb yet, it would cause an error and not let you proceed. Now, we will pop up a tool to help you select the correct title on TVDB so we can still send the request through! With the new Sonarr sync, this should also let us correctly mark the item as available even if the TMDb external ID happens to still be missing at that point! @ankarhem put a lot of work into this one. Thanks! 👏

Hide available items from discovery (Experimental)

You can now choose to hide all items that are already marked as available from your discovery sliders and results. This will not affect search results. This feature is currently experimental! If you would like to try it, toggle it in your General Settings!

Some smaller, but equally awesome features/bug fixes

• Failed logins will now log the request IP. You can use this to configure fail2ban if it fits your fancy! (fail2ban filter docs) Another from @ankarhem.
• You can now enable CSRF protection in General Settings. This feature is considered advanced so please don't turn it on if you don't know what you are doing! Thanks for the PR @TheCatLady.
• You can also tell Overseerr to trust your reverse proxy, by turning on Enable Proxy Support in your settings. Again, thanks @TheCatLady!
• We should correctly send a single notification for movies when they become available
• New "poster not found" images have been added app-wide to deal with movies/series that are missing poster art.
• Huge update to the language site-wide to fix grammatical mistakes, consistency, and so on. This one from @TheCatLady 🎉
• Local users will now correctly inherit your default permissions
• You can finally run jobs from the Jobs page in Settings!

v1.17.0

Awesome New Stuff

4K Requests are here!

Finally, the 4K server checkbox in the Radarr/Sonarr config does something! Get started by setting up at least one 4K Radarr/Sonarr server. If you don't have any default 4K Radarr servers, you cannot make 4K movie requests. The same goes for Sonarr!

Users will also need the "Request 4K" permission. (You can grant this permission for only movies or series)

Advanced Requests

One of the most highly requested features is now available in this release! Users with the "Advanced Requests" permission will be able to select Radarr/Sonarr servers, profiles, and root folders per request.

Request Editing

Hand in hand with the advanced requests feature, you can now edit requests before approving them. Someone requesting every season of the Simpsons? Maybe adjust which seasons are selected before you hit approve. You can also change the destination server/profile/folder. You can edit requests from the manage movie/series slide-over or the Request list page.

HAMA Support added to the Plex scanner (Anime!)

If you are one of the people that use HAMA for your Plex anime library, we can now correctly scan and detect available shows/movies in those libraries! Thanks, @mmozeiko!

Local Users Initial Support

This update also includes basic support for local users! If you have home users without plex accounts, they can now use Overseerr too! You can create a local account from the User list.

As of right now, there is no way to change a local account's display name or password after they are created. These features will come in one of the next updates. (Along with a ton of other improvements relating to users)

Thanks to @ankarhem for this!

Webhook Notifications

Another notification agent ready for service! We added webhooks with custom JSON payloads in this update. You can design the payload in any way you like using a built-in editor. Template variables are available to display the content how you want. Further updates will also improve this over time, and we will add a lot more template variables in the future!

Other New Things

• Added Chinese (Traditional) language (Thanks @TheCatLady)
• Added a new notification type for declined requests
• Added a "See More" card at the end of sliders to quickly jump to the full view of content

Big Bug Fixin'

• Improved Rotten Tomatoes matching. It's still best effort, but at least "Soul" matches correctly!
• Clarified which fields are required in the Radarr/Sonarr modals
• Fix showing "failed" for declined requests in the Request list
• Fixed duplicate series notifications from being sent
• Improved the Plex scanner, so it doesn't get stuck as often.
• Recently Added on the discover page will now show content based on when it was added to Plex, instead of when it was added to Overseerr.

v1.16.0

Notable New Features

Pushover Notifications

We now support pushover notifications! Thanks @ankarhem

Other Changes

Overall this is a small update, there are some more tweaks to the Titlecard design and some new animations applied to them. Ive also included everyones language updates. Thanks to all the contributors providing translations!

1.16.0 (2021-01-07)

This release is also available on:

• v1.16.0

v1.15.0

Notable New Features

Set which types of notifications are sent per agent

🚨 YOU MUST SET THESE AS THEY WILL ALL BE EMPTY BY DEFAULT OR YOU WILL RECEIVE NO NOTIFICATIONS 🚨

You can now set which notification events are sent to which notification agents! You can find this under each individual agent's settings page.

Filtering and sorting the request list

The request list is now filterable and sortable. Filtering options are a little sparse for now, so you can only filter by All/Pending/Approved but more filter options will come in the future such as Declined and Available.

Telegram Notification Agent

Telegram is now available as a notification agent! Thanks @ankarhem for building this!

App Update Popup

When the frontend detects a change in the backend, a modal will now open and force the user to reload Overseerr. This helps keep the frontend up to date for people who don't like to ever close tabs. It also makes using the app as a bookmarked app on iOS/Android even better, because those tend to also not force a reload when they are opened.

Note: This does not update the actual app for you, its just a frontend notification when the backend was already updated.

Smaller Stuff

• The search bar now correctly shows a clear search icon on all devices, and will take you back to the page you were on before starting to search if pressed
• You can now set a Sender Name for email notifications. It will default to Overseerr

Notable Changes

Titlecard Design Update

The Titlecard has been updated to make better use of its available space. The "see more" button has been removed in favor of a larger, wider request button and the status icons are now smaller and put into the corners of the Titlecard to better match the overall design of Overseerr.

Removed duplicate credits on person pages

Person pages will now combine duplicate credits into one.

That's all for now! More stuff on the way!

v1.14.0

First of all, merry christmas and happy holidays to everyone! Here is your christmas day gift!

Version 1.14 is here, and it includes some pretty rad new stuff!

New Features

Collections

Now items that are a part of collections will show a Collections button on their details page. Clicking on it will take you to a details page with all the movies in the collection. From there, you can request all the films at once! If you already have some items in a collection, then clicking request will only grab what you don't already have available.

Trailers

Movies/Series with available trailers will now show a button that will take you directly to the video!

Thanks @jayesh100 for building this!

Failed request handling

If your requests fail to send to Radarr and Sonarr for some reason (connectivity, for example) your media will now go into a "failed" state. You will now be able to ask Overseerr to retry sending the item to the respective service in the Request list.

Thanks @johnpyp for this one!

Separate permissions for Auto Approve Movies/Series

You can now grant users separate permissions for auto approval!

Slack Notification Agent

Slack is now supported as one of our notification agents. More on the way!

Other things worth mentioning

• The person details page now does a better job of sorting content by what people are actually known for
• The status of "Unavailable" has been renamed to "Requested"
• Logs will now rotate on a daily basis. You will start to see new log files pop up in your logs directory. overseerr.log will still be the most recent logs (its symlinked to the days file)
• Improved the icons for bookmark apps on mobile devices. You might need to re-add Overseerr to your homescreen for the icon to update!

That's it for now. A lot more still being built and on the way soon!
