The showcase

Your index, presented as a poster wall

The built-in indexer scans the newsgroups you care about, and the wall turns what it finds into posters, ratings, cast and episode grids, all from keyless public sources that your own install fetches. Click an episode chip to download it.

Indexer & the poster wall

Scan the groups you care about into a private index, then browse the result as a poster wall. Every bit of the metadata is pulled from keyless public sources by your own install. There's no API key to go begging for.

Ratings, cast, synopsis, episode grid. No API keys, ever.
  • Continuous group scanner. Incremental OVER scans run on your schedule at ~43k headers/s across fanned-out connections, negotiating compressed headers (RFC 8054) where a server offers them. First scans are date-bisected, so --max-age 2y skips years of headers in about 20 probes.
  • Ingest gates: filters on kind, year, resolution, language and size keep indexer spam out of your database, and obfuscated junk is caught and gated by default.
  • Scene-name parser. It pulls title, year, episode, quality and source out of real-world stems (date-coded dailies, multi-episode codes and ROT13-obfuscated names included) and dedupes releases down to one card per title.
  • Takedown detection. Background availability sampling notices a group being reaped and badges its releases, so a post that's already being taken down doesn't waste a grab.
  • Keyless enrichment. TVmaze for TV, iTunes Search for film, plus public ratings datasets, Wikidata, Wikipedia and AniList fill in posters, ratings and vote counts, cast, genres and plots. OMDb and TMDB keys work if you have them, but nothing needs one.
  • Episode grids: per-season chips with the best encode of each episode a click from downloading, season packs flagged, and a "watch series" on every season header.
  • Trending rows: new-this-week and hot-right-now strips built from post frequency.
  • A wall that learns. "Not interested" hides a title and teaches a standing rule; the "For you" sort ranks the wall by the taste profile your own grabs build. All of it stays local.
  • Fix anything. Wrong match? Pick from the candidates or just type the right identity. Anything you set by hand is never overwritten. Point a poster at a URL or upload one. One button re-enriches a single title; another wipes and rebuilds the whole index.
