RapidBay

Rapid bay is a self hosted video service/torrent client that makes playing videos from torrents as easy as:

Features:

Search using a combination of the top torrent search engines - easily extendable to support other backends.
Pick individual video files you want to play and the system takes care of the rest to make it streamable.
Automatic download of Closed Captions/Subtitles
Automatically converts the video file and subtitles to be playable on all browsers/chromecast/appletv
Automatically converts audio that is unsupported by browsers to AAC
Allows registering as a handler for any magnet link
Automatically cleans up disk space so you don't need to manage it yourself
Supports using Jackett as a search backend.

Requires Docker

docker run -p 5000:5000 -p 6881:6881 -p 6881:6881/udp -e USERNAME=<some-username> -e PASSWORD=<some-password> hauxir/rapidbay

App will be running at http://localhost:5000

The default setting downloads all subtitle languages but it might get slow if there are many for a given file.

To solve this you need to customize which languages you want.

Add the env variable SUBTITLE_LANGUAGES to your docker params like so:

-e SUBTITLE_LANGUAGES="['en', 'de', 'es']"

Rapidbay supports using the torrent indexer Jackett for searching. Just provide the the env variables JACKETT_HOST and JACKETT_API_KEY like so:

-e JACKETT_HOST="http://your.jacket.host" -e JACKETT_API_KEY="YourAPIKey"

Go to https://<RAPIDBAY_HOST>/registerHandler and it should prompt you to register your running RapidBay instance as a default handler for torrent links on any torrent site!
You can also copy/paste a magnet link directly into the search bar to open magnet links manually.

Requires Docker + docker-compose

docker-compose up

Default username and password is admin:123456
