Bazarr

Bazarr.png

Bazarr is a companion application to Sonarr and Radarr. It manages and downloads subtitles based on your requirements. You define your preferences by TV show or movie and Bazarr takes care of everything for you.

Be aware that Bazarr doesn't scan disk to detect series and movies: It only takes care of the series and movies that are indexed in Sonarr and Radarr.

Installation

There are several platforms on which you can install Bazarr. This install is focused on the docker container method of installation since that is my primary way to handle most server applications.

If you do not want to install via a container, the other installation methods for Bazarr can be found on the official Bazarr wiki.

Running Bazarr as a container

Basic examples for getting this image running as a container. The image I am using here is maintained by linuxserver.io

You CANNOT store your config directory over an NFS share as it is unsupported by SQLITE. You will receive a locked database error.
