Huh, it works on my end. I tested it just the other day.

As I mentioned in a different comment here, I’m already familiar with the arr suite. It’s how I found Jackett in the first place, and I’ve already determined that setting up the .arr programs isn’t worth it for me. Stremio suits me just fine, the .arr programs appear to be better suited toward those with the time and money to setup a whole dedicated server for their media needs. I only consume media on my personal computer, so I have no need for that.

I have tried Prowlarr though, just yesterday in fact. I didn’t really find its manual search feature to be any better than Jackett’s, and in fact it had some issues. In any case, since I don’t use the .arr programs, I’ve no reason to switch. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I’m not sure if they have an android version of Jackett. It would be a dream come true if that were the case, but I’m sure it would be listed in the Jackett github page if a mobile version was available. Sadly, there’s no mention of anything like that on the github page.

Really glad to hear you were able to get Jackett working, though! It really is an amazing program.

See, I was hoping this meme would inform at least one person that Qbittorrent comes with an in-built search engine. That’s how I found out about it in the first place, through a meme lol

You probably have, but did you follow the official configuration tutorial?

I had no trouble setting it up before. Seemed very easy to me. Where are you getting stuck in the process?

Alternatively, you could just search directly in Jackett’s interface with the “manual search” option. That’s what I do. I find it preferable to setting it up with the Qbit search engine since Jackett’s search has more features.

I don’t use .arr programs, so not really, lol. At least not in my case, anyway. Stremio fills the niche for all my media needs quite nicely, and Qbit and Jackett cover everything else.

Edit: Really, downvoting someone for using Stremio instead of the .arr suite? Lol. Stay classy, c/Piracy.

Gotta say, in over 2 years of using this program, I’ve never had that happen even once.

I don’t torrent on mobile, so I have no idea if a mobile equivalent to this exists, sorry.

Ah. Well, I don’t use Usenet and Jackett’s interface suits me fine. Guess I’ll stick to Jackett then. Thanks for the info!

Jackett comes preloaded with 574 indexers, and none of the ones I use are private. All of mine are public indexers, you just have to know the names of some popular torrent sites. I discovered half the indexers I use from people on r/Piracy (before the migration) talking about how much they like how they work. That’s how I found Idope, Knaben, and Torlock. Others, like 1337x, Nyaa.si, LimeTorrents, and EZTV are all indexers I was familiar with as I had used them personally and recognized them when I clicked into the “add indexers” drop-down on the interface. Barring all that, you could just ask someone else to send you a screenshot of all the indexers they use on their Jackett setup. Here’s a list of the ones I use. Adding indexers to Jackett is basically the easiest part, and you only have to do it once.
