For those of you that doesn't know about Trailarr, here's a short description.

Trailarr is an open-source app for downloading/managing [local] trailers for your media library. It's a docker app that comes with everything pre-installed (yt-dlp, ffmpeg with hardware acceleration, etc) and has a UI, downloads trailers from Youtube and places them alongside your movies and series in a format that Plex agrees with. Configurable options for resolution, codecs, file naming, etc., for trailer downloads.

Plex Integration: Trailarr has been around for a while now (first release Aug-2024), and needed Radarr/Sonarr to work until now. I have worked on integrating Plex into the app (with Plex OAuth - get's it's own token, no need to hunt for the admin Plex token) so it's no longer depends on Radarr/Sonarr and can be used with only Plex without Radarr/Sonarr.

  • Can detect if movie/show has a Plex Pass trailer and skip downloading local trailer. Minimum resolution of Plex Pass trailer required to skip can be configured.
  • Can send Library Scan notification to Plex to scan the movie/show folder on trailer download.

Released in v0.9.0 yesterday, looking for feedback and suggestions for improvements.

Note: I wrote this entire post and majority of the app's codebase! As mentioned above Trailarr has been around for about 20 months now, not vibe coded. I do use AI sometimes to get ideas and brainstorm some ideas, however, the app is mostly me. And yes, I can write markdown - I wrote all of the Trailarr docs in markdown.
