I have a Plex server running on Mac OSX. Whenever I want to add media, I remotely connect into the Mac, login to my private tracker, download the torrent, wait for it to finish, then update my Plex library.

I'm hopeful that there's an easier way. I'm imagining a way I can remotely tell the Plex server what I want to watch and it takes it from there. Does such a thing exist?

Jellyfin has come a hell of a long way since it first forked from Emby. sure its not as feature complete and polished as plex but it's far from shit, and it's free and open.

I run both side by side with several clients on each and have been a plexpass holder since 2013.
