A self-hosted Netflix-like media server with built-in torrent search, downloads, and subtitles. Runs on a Raspberry Pi.
Everything you need to find, download, and watch media — no configuration required.
Dark theme with trending movies, TV shows, poster art, and search — all from free public APIs (TMDB scraping, TVmaze, mdblist).
Searches PirateBay, YTS, and 1337x in parallel. One-click download with real-time progress tracking.
Powered by librqbit — a pure Rust BitTorrent engine. No qBittorrent or Transmission needed.
Search and download subtitles from OpenSubtitles directly in the browser. Saved next to video files for automatic loading.
Sideload the included WebView APK to get a fullscreen pizerarr experience on any Fire Stick or Android TV.
See exactly how much space each movie takes on your SD card with a colored usage bar.
