How do you keep track of your media? - eviltoast

I’ve started collecting a lot of movies and tv-sjows for my jellyfin server, but I found it quite difficult to keep track of what I already have, what I want and if I have the subtitles and everything for it. What would you suggest to keep track of what is and isn’t available on a jellyfin server?

I’ve seen some stuff like the *arr software, but I actually just want to have a simple piece of software that just keeps track of my media, and doesn’t also look for new stuff.

    We use Library Thing to manage my library of 1400+ and growing. It is free and works great for books, movies, TV series. Anytime I’m browsing the local stores I easily check if if I already own something. Has helped a ton.

    It works with my partner having access to the same library. Wishlisting things is easy. You can scan the barcode or search titles to add them.

        @jqubed @notfromhere I use LT for books, no DVDs etc (yet) and second the recommendation! No idea if less popular media such as LD, VD or video tapes are supported, but the people behind LT are incredibly helpful and open for suggestions.

        Note that it doesn’t work with Jellyfin.

          I don’t actually have Jellyfin set up yet (just subscribed to keep track of an interesting project I might use someday). With it not being integrated, do you mean this just ends up being duplicative? Or that it doesn’t auto-import into LT from Jellyfin so you have to manage that manually?
