Now comes the fun part: Adding your shows/movies and watching everything work together like a well-oiled machine! 😎
|
|
|
|
## Radarr & Sonarr
|
|
|
|
These instructions work for both Radarr and Sonarr. To keep things simple, I'll show you with Radarr, but the process is super similar for TV shows!
|
|
|
|
Open Radarr at [http://{your-ip-address}:7878/]() and click on "Add New" in the left menu. For this demo, I'll use "The Godfather" (because it's a classic!), but you can search for any movie you want.
|
|
|
|
Pro tip: For your first test, pick something popular - it'll be easier to find!

|
|
|
|
Click on the movie you want to download:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Now you can pick your quality preferences. If your movie is part of a collection (like The Godfather is), you can choose to download the whole series in the "Monitor" box. I'm going for the whole trilogy because, well, why not?
|
|
|
|
Finally, click "Add Movie"!
|

|
|
|
Head back to "Movies" and you'll see your selections:

|
Click on "Activity" to watch the magic happen - you can see everything downloading in real-time! 🪄

|
## qBittorrent
|
|
|
|
Want to see what's going on under the hood? Open qBittorrent at [http://{your-ip-address}:8081/]() and you'll see your movies downloading!
|
|
|
|
This means everything is working perfectly! When downloads finish, Radarr will automatically organize them into the right folders.

## Media service
|
|
|
|
After your downloads finish, head over to your media service and... ta-da! 🎉 Your movies are right there waiting for you!

Open up a movie and look - subtitles are already there! That's [Bazarr](/config/bazarr) doing its thing! 🎯

You can even start watching right from your browser, with subtitles and everything:

Not a fan of how things are named? No problem! You can always change the naming format in [Radarr's media management page](/config/radarr#media-management) or [Sonarr's settings](/config/sonarr#media-management).

# Final step and conclusions
|
|
|
|
You did it! 🎉 You've got your very own media server up and running! That's a huge step toward breaking free from subscription services like Netflix or Amazon Prime.
|
|
|
|
And guess what? There's still so much more you can do to make your setup even better! Head over to the [Recommendations](/config/recommendations) page for some cool ideas on what to try next.

|
|
🙌 Thanks for following along with the tutorial! Hope you enjoy your awesome new media server - you've earned it! 😎
