MakeMKV gives you a pile of VOB files. Sonarr wants a clean named MKV in the right folder. The gap between those two is always a manual dance. Figure out which season it is, rename it, drop it in the right place, trigger a rescan.

Discarr fills that gap: it’s a small Node.js web UI (no npm packages, pure built-ins) that handles the VIDEO_TS / BDMV / ISO → arr import chain.

What it does:

• Scans disc structure automatically (VIDEO_TS, BDMV, multi-disc, ISO)
• Reads IFO chapter data to split multi-episode DVD discs correctly
• Browser UI to map disc titles to the right Sonarr episodes or Radarr movies
• Queues HEVC encodes via ffmpeg or HandBrake (locally or over SSH to a remote box)
• Notifies Sonarr/Radarr via custom script hooks on import/delete/completion
• Optional: qBittorrent hook triggers a scan on torrent completion; Tdarr ping after encode
• Persistent job queue. restarts resume automatically

Requirements: Node.js 18+, ffmpeg + ffprobe. HandBrake optional. Docker image bundles both plus openssh-client.

Still early, issues and PRs welcome.
