Best Way to Get Notified About New Movie Releases? (jlai.lu)

submitted 4 days ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I'm trying to find a simple way to keep track of movie releases that I'm interested in. Is there an app or website where I can just type in the movie name and get notified when it's available?

I've seen some posts mentioning setting up RSS feeds, but that seems a bit complicated for what I need. Ideally, I want something where I can just hit "get notified" and then receive an email or notification when the movie is released.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

(Not just when they are released in cinema but as 1080 or 4k)

When I’ve looked into it I never saw a way to set it up to filter for quality beyond what’s in the torrent name, which more often than not doesn’t specify hdr type, audio, etc - certainly not bitrate.

It probably depends on the tracker and release group/uploader what they include in the torrent name, but yeah generally that's what you can filter by. Otherwise it requires access to the media-file to determine these things. I would say though, that good trackers have reliable information in the torrent names themselves, usually audio-tracks (sometimes just "multi" though), codec, and resolution. I only use private trackers now though, and I have not had issues with unexpected low quality video since moving away from public trackers.

I believe you can filter by tags too. These are tracker specific though, so it's up to the trackers you're using to define what you can filter with tags I think.

Ah yeah, I don’t have access to any private trackers for movies or TV so I’m stuck with the public releases

I'm pretty sure you can define the filter by bitrate as in dimension/minute of the file, this allow for a filter that's unrelated to the filename.

Of course if you are into stuff like HDR type you can't reasonably expect it to be tied to a webrip or anything below Blueray.

You can also do a manual search from within radarr and look at the files yourself.

Yeah I know I can search within radarr but at that point why have it
