About Sonarr
Sonarr is a personal video recorder for Usenet and BitTorrent. You tell it which series you follow and what quality you want; it monitors indexers and RSS feeds, grabs new episodes as they appear, and sorts and renames the files into a structure your media server understands.
It also scans an existing library and fills the gaps, upgrades files automatically when a better quality version appears, and retries with a different release when a download fails. It integrates fully with SABnzbd and NZBGet, and with Kodi and Plex for notifications, library updates and metadata.
Sonarr finds and organises; it does not host anything. What you point it at is your responsibility.
