Some background. I set up a Jellyfin server for my family to host TV shows and movies for them for free. I finally had enough of Xfinity and switched to T-Mobile 5G home internet, but in doing so, I lost the ability to control my network's port forwarding. I'm spending literally half the previous amount on internet and getting the same speeds, so I don't plan on going back.

What I do plan on doing is setting up a new server at my parent's house and running it on their network. Problem is that I'm 2 hours away. My plan is to use Qbit, jackett, and the arrs to automatically download torrents. Is there any way to automatically rename torrents to match Jellyfin's naming convention for organization and metadata downloads?

The arrs mostly support generating metadata usable by jellyfin/emby. You just need to go to settings on for example sonarr and there should be an option for metadata provider and jellyfin their. Whenever sonarr then imports an episode it'll add a nfo file containing everything jellyfin needs to process the episode.

Oh wow, I had no idea that even was an option. I'm pretty excited to sink my teeth into the arrs. It's a little daunting having to set it up on a Linux server plus the networking, but still exciting.

It's super satisfying try set it up and watch it all just work once you get it going

Renaming and metadata is default. Even though I just checked, I have disabled all metadata "providers" in arrs apps (not sure is this defaut?), but I have also set jellyfin library metadata to TheTVDB as first priority. It was working fine at default settings, but had a mess with season numbers of one show (dragon ball) before the change. Iirc arrs are using tvdb for metadata

Its maybe pain to set arrs, but once you get deeper in the setup it becomes much easier and its deffo worth
