Have a docker-compose to share? I have Plex and love it too, but that "add to watchlist" type setup seems very interesting. Any links to point me in the right direction?

I used to use sonarr and radarr in the past but used those directly, not via Plex, and to be honest I sometimes ran into issues with them but generally they worked fine.

It looks like Radarr (and I assume Sonarr) both have features to monitor that the watchlist in plex https://github.com/Radarr/Radarr/issues/5705

It's a clever way to do this without leaving Plex. I've used Ombi or PlexRequests in the past but they weren't my favorite and I finally gave up and used the sonarr/radarr UI directly.

It's a feature recently added to Overseerr.

To add: use Jellyseerr when you use Jellyfin as your media server. I don’t think it can be controlled from the Jellyfin UI (like you can with plex?).

Personally I host Jellyfin and jellyseerr on their own subdomain so it’s not an issue, and Jellyfin is only accessed via Infuse anyway.

Yeah, with Plex things can be added to the Watchlist directly from the apps (including on the TV). It has made a big difference in uptake with my users compared to getting them to log into a website.
