Getting started

This page walks you through getting set up. Register an account, then add whichever combination of an RSS feed and a Sonarr/Radarr connection matches how you plan to use the site. Each step below links out to the fuller reference for that feature instead of repeating it here.

Two independent ways to track new releases

There are two independent ways to keep up with new torrents here, and you don't have to set up both. An RSS feed polls one saved search continuously and gives you a fixed list of its newest matches, while Torznab is a search API that lets Sonarr or Radarr query the site directly whenever they're looking for something specific, instead of reading down a fixed list. Pick whichever fits how you plan to use it, or set up both for different searches.

1. Register an account

Go to /register and enter an email and a password of at least 8 characters. Registering logs you in immediately and takes you to the search page. There's no separate login step after that.

2. Set up an RSS feed

Run a search on the search page, then use "Save this search as a feed" to save it. Saved feeds live under My feeds, along with full instructions for adding one to Sonarr, Radarr, or a plain RSS reader.
