Lists Overview

Lists allow you to automatically transform monitored media from various sources into autobrr filters:

  • Shows, movies, books and music from *arr applications
  • Titles from external services (Trakt, MDBList, Metacritic, etc.)

Built-in lists

We have a couple built in lists that we maintain/update via our api. You can use your own urls in the fields but these below are available as built-ins.

TypeLists
MDBListLatest TV Shows
TraktAnticipated TV, Popular TV, Upcoming Movies, Upcoming BluRay, Steven Lu
MetacriticUpcoming Albums, New Albums
AniListCurrent anime season, Trending animies, Next anime season

Quick Setup Guide

  2. Fill in the basic settings:
    • List name
    • Select type (e.g., Radarr, Sonarr)
    • Choose instance

3. Optional Configuration

  • Match Releases: Uses Match Releases field instead of Movies/Shows field
  • Include Unmonitored: Includes unmonitored titles (useful for cross-seed filters)
  • Alternate Titles: Includes alternate titles in the filter

4. Finalize Setup

  2. Click "Save"

Note: Filters update immediately upon save and refresh every 6 hours automatically.

Filter Customization

You can improve filtering further by configuring fields like:
