Glossary

Quick definitions for the words this guide uses, grouped by where you meet them.

Naming and matching

Absolute episode number
An anime number that ignores seasons (e.g. “Episode 52”). OrgoMedia turns it into the season and episode Plex and Jellyfin expect (S01E52).
Manual match
The one-click step where you confirm a title OrgoMedia wasn’t sure about, instead of guessing.
OVA / ONA / Special
Bonus anime episodes outside the main run. OrgoMedia files them under Season 0, where your media server expects extras.
TMDB
The Movie Database, the metadata source OrgoMedia checks titles, seasons, and episode names against.

Apps OrgoMedia works with

*arr stack
A group of free apps (Radarr, Sonarr, Prowlarr…) that automate finding and managing media. OrgoMedia can drive them for you.
Client
The app that actually fetches the file. You set it up inside Radarr and Sonarr. OrgoMedia reads release status from those apps rather than connecting to the client directly.
Indexer
A searchable catalog the *arr apps query to learn where a title can be found.
Plex / Jellyfin
The media servers OrgoMedia connects to: they stream your library to your TV, phone and browser. Emby reads the same file and folder names, but OrgoMedia does not connect to it.
Prowlarr
Manages your indexers in one place and shares them with Radarr and Sonarr.
Radarr
The *arr app that manages movies.
Sonarr
The *arr app that manages TV shows and anime, tracking seasons and episodes.
TRaSH Guides
Community-recommended quality settings, applied for you in one click: just connect Sonarr and Radarr.

On your Mac and iPhone

CloudKit
Apple’s built-in sync service. OrgoMedia uses it to keep your household’s requests and settings in step across your devices, with nothing for you to run.
Folder permission
How OrgoMedia remembers the folders you let it use, so it does not ask again each time it opens.
