## Description

travelarr fills your travel NAS with movies and TV shows from your home Plex server, so you can watch them on the road without streaming. Sign in with Plex, browse your watchlist and libraries, and pick movies, whole shows, seasons or single episodes. travelarr copies the original files, with their external subtitles, into a share on this server in the same folder layout as at home. Play them with Infuse or any player that reads a network share. No transcoding, and no Plex server needed on this NAS. Downloads resume after dropped connections and restarts, and every resume is checked so a bad connection never leaves a corrupt file. At home it copies over your LAN; away it uses Plex Remote Access. Local Files lets you browse the share and delete what you have watched. Turn on sign-in with a user name and password in Settings. Tested with the account that owns the Plex server, on a server

## Common questions

### Does travelarr require Plex Pass?

It is tested on a server with Plex Pass. Without Plex Pass it is not tested yet, and away from home Plex's remote-access requirements since April 2025 may block downloads.

### How does travelarr connect to the home Plex server when I am away?

It uses your home LAN when you are home and Plex Remote Access when you are away. Plex Relay stays off unless you allow it.

### Can I restrict access to travelarr?

Yes, an optional sign-in page with a user name and password can be turned on in Settings.

### Are external and embedded subtitles copied?

It copies external subtitles that Plex knows about, and subtitles inside the file come along automatically.

### What happens if a download is interrupted?

Downloads resume after dropped connections or restarts, and each resume is checked against the file on Plex so a bad connection does not leave a corrupt file.

### Can I delete or resync files on the travel NAS?

Local Files lets you browse the share and delete movies, shows, seasons, or episodes. Re-sync compares folders on the NAS with Plex, copies missing or upgraded files, and can re-fetch subtitles via Lingarr.
