¶ What is Bazarr?
Bazarr is a companion application to Sonarr and Radarr. It can manage and download subtitles based on your requirements. You define your preferences by TV show or movie and Bazarr takes care of everything for you.
¶ Installation
- Change the Timezone. For east coast time, use America/New_York.
- Change the Storage Configuration. The Bazarr Config Storage Type should be set to Host Path as described in the TrueNAS article.
- Change the WebUI Port to 6767 as that is the default used in all the documentation.

¶ Bazarr Configuration
The wiki for Bazarr is very good. Once you have the container running, follow the instructions here and then set the profile for all of your existing content (if you have any).
Before you do, you will probably want free account in these two places which will be used during the setup configuration:
- For Providers I used opensubtitles.com.
- For my anti-captcha I used anti-captcha.com. ( ← If you stick to opensubtitles only, you won’t need this but it is generally recommended to use more than one provider.)
