Comment on Prowlarr vs overserr/jellyserr

  The other person is wrong. Your Usenet indexers will work on prowlarr. The most important feature that Prowlarr has that gets overlooked is that it will sync your indexers into the other arr programs like radarr sonarr, lidarr, etc… automatically. You make a change on prowlarr it syncs to them all. It’s the ideal solution for managing indexers all in one place.

    Thanks! So prowlarr is the only place my indexers should be configured. And sonarr and radarr should only be configured with downloaders?

      If you’re only intend to use Radarr you can set your NZB indexer there and your downloader.

      If you plan to add more arr later like Sonarr you can use Prowlarr and just link it, and not have to configure your indexers again in Sonarr.

      Honestly if you’re using nzb you’ll only really need the nzb indexer so it shouldn’t be all that hard to set up in other programmes

        I will be using sonarr and maybe others as well. I have set it up now. I liked prowlarr a lot. I have a language specific torrent site I have added to it and it seems like prowlarr is the only place I can select exactly which language to download.

      Yeah. Once you add indexer to prowlar it will be visible in radarr as well (also sonarr, lidarr, etc).

      Jelyseerr is amazing GUI that you can use to grab media instead of logging in to radarr or sonarr.

      I recommend both!

  If you are only using usenet then prowlarr will do nothing. Prowlarr aggregates torrent indexers and searches them for your request

    That is not correct. Prowlarr also searches Newznab-compatible providers (i.e. most nzb-indexers).
