Self-hosted media management. Everything in one app.
The all-in-one platform that just happens to replace a bunch of tools

Cinephage — from Greek cine (film) + phage (to devour). A film devourer.

Cinephage unifies your entire media workflow into a single, modern application. Instead of running multiple services that don't talk to each other, you get one cohesive platform that handles everything.

One database. All your movies, TV shows, live TV channels, subtitles, and indexer configs live together. No sync issues, no data fragmentation.

One interface. Browse, search, monitor, and manage everything from a single, responsive UI built with Svelte 5.

One configuration. Set up your indexers, download clients, and preferences once. They work across movies, TV, and streaming.

One place. Whether you're downloading a BluRay remux, streaming via .strm files, or watching live TV, it's all in Cinephage.

Cinephage brings together functionality you'd typically find across multiple applications:

• Radarr & Sonarr — Movie and TV series management
• Prowlarr — Indexer management with supported trackers
• Bazarr — Multi-provider subtitle management
• Overseerr — Content discovery and smart lists
• FlareSolverr — Built-in Cloudflare bypass (no external service needed)
• Plus — Live TV/IPTV management, usenet streaming, and more

The *arr projects are fantastic at what they do. We just took a different path — one unified codebase instead of separate services that need to sync with each other.

Create .strm files that point to online sources and watch instantly. No disk space, no waiting for downloads, no seeding. Works with Jellyfin, Emby, Kodi, or any player that supports .strm files.

Camoufox integration handles Cloudflare challenges automatically. No separate FlareSolverr container to maintain, no configuration headaches. It just works.

Stream directly from NZBs without downloading the entire file first. Unique seekable stream implementation with adaptive prefetching and segment caching.

Connect Stalker portals and automatically discover working MAC addresses. Full EPG support, channel management, and HLS streaming.

50+ scoring factors including codec efficiency (x265/AV1), HDR formats, audio quality, and release group reputation. Custom format creation for personalized scoring rules.

Dynamic content discovery with auto-add to library. Import from IMDb, Trakt, TMDb lists, or create custom queries. "Automatically add all 2024 movies rated 7.5+" — fully automated.

• File watching and auto-import
• Multi-indexer search with deduplication
• 6 subtitle providers, 80+ languages
• 7 automated monitoring tasks
• Jellyfin/Emby notifications
• TRaSH Guides-compatible naming

Create a docker-compose.yaml file:

services:
  cinephage:
    image: ghcr.io/moldytaint/cinephage:latest
    container_name: cinephage
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - '3000:3000'
    environment:
      - PUID=1000 # Your user ID (run: id -u)
      - PGID=1000 # Your group ID (run: id -g)
      - TZ=UTC
      - ORIGIN=http://localhost:3000
    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
      - /path/to/media:/media # CHANGE THIS
      - /path/to/downloads:/downloads # CHANGE THIS

Then start it:

docker compose up -d

That's it. Open http://localhost:3000 and follow the setup wizard.

Note: Your data, config, and logs are stored in ./config (automatically created). Never mount /app as it contains application code.

Upgrading from older versions? See Migration Guide if you previously used /app/data and /app/logs mounts.

Cinephage draws inspiration from the excellent Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr, and Bazarr projects, with UI patterns influenced by Overseerr. Quality scoring data comes from Dictionarry. Metadata powered by TMDB.

This project was built with AI assistance. As a solo developer learning as I go, AI helps bridge the gap between ambition and experience. We believe in being upfront about how this is built.

Cinephage is a media management tool. It does not host, store, or distribute any media content. All content comes from external sources you configure. Live TV/IPTV functionality depends entirely on third-party services.
