It’s not really any different, I just download torrents and shows appear. He's doing this through the plex interface?

No. It was originally something he had through discord, but now that just sends the notifications when something in the automated request queue is downloaded.

Now it’s an app he has us log into (not plex). He doesn’t do anything with it at this point except maintain the server he runs and delete old content to make room for new.

there's a bunch of apps you can install on NAS/plex servers like sonarr (TV), radarr (movies), overseerr (request anything) that basically automate it all. There are hundreds, like ones that add subtitles or download user cover art.

overseerr is what you are talking about, its a web interface that lets friends who have access to your plex server request any movie/show/anime. It shows everything new (or old) and users can request the NAS to auto download it. There are tons of admin options like only certain users can do requests, or you can override requests or only allow 1080p downloads or whatever

Thats what I meant though by this stuff makes netflix/HBO/AppleTV/etc obsolete, once you get these apps setup its all automated. I just have to tell overseerr to auto download 4K HDR copies of Knight of the Seven Kingdoms and it'll automatically handle it all for me for past and future seasons, after I configure it to download from a private tracker with my key. There are a ton of 200TB private plex servers hosted in datacenters that are shared between 5-20 users and they each basically contain everything popular ever made.

"Plex is a software platform that helps you organize, stream, and share your media content, including movies, TV shows, music, and photos. It's like having your own personal Netflix or Spotify, but for the media you own or have access to. You can access your Plex library on various devices, including smart TVs, streaming boxes, and mobile devices."

And yeah, a friend of mine has his automated. There's a form you fill out for requests (including for movies not yet out) and it automatically downloads them when they are available.

I haven't sailed the high seas in a long time, just never heard of it.

Thanks, I'll have to check it out.

yeah that’s it I think. It works really well. I requested movies that aren’t releasing until next year. It’s a great program.
