What's new in Kochab 1.2

Seerr requests with season choice for everyone, one watchlist across Seerr, Plex and Trakt, more of Trakt on every title, and posters that show up from your phone first.

Seerr requests, with season choice for everyone

Everyone who can request can now choose which TV seasons they want, not just the admin. Search results show what is already requested or available, so you stop requesting things twice. Tap a request and it opens the title. The request list can be filtered, sorted, and narrowed to one user, and any title has a report-an-issue option, with a Resolved filter to see what was fixed.

If you run Seerr, its service page now shows whether an update is waiting, lets you run its jobs, and tells you when it needs a restart. Home shows what is processing and what just became available, even when Seerr is the only thing in your stack.

One watchlist

Your Seerr, Plex, and Trakt watchlists now appear as one list. Adding or removing an item goes through Seerr, so Seerr’s own permissions apply. Plex and Trakt items still show here; you change those in Plex or on Trakt.

More Trakt, with no sign-in

Every title page can now show related titles, the cast and crew, and a person’s filmography, from Trakt’s public data. If you use Jellyfin’s Trakt plugin, Kochab uses its recommendations when you are not signed in to Trakt yourself.

When you sign in to Trakt, the Trakt page shows your username and whether you have VIP, a recommendation you do not want can be hidden from your own Trakt with Not interested, and title pages show your rating and progress beside the public numbers.

Posters from your phone first

If your server is busy, slow, or out of reach, the poster you already saw stays on screen. Kochab now shows the copy saved on your phone first and only replaces it when a newer one arrives. Opening a screen again does not download it again.

Smaller things

Sportarr leagues offer the team and session choices each league actually has. TrueNAS alerts have readable titles and a link to the documentation.

Emby and Jellyfin accounts show when a user is disabled or locked out, and Analytics explains what it is missing when watch history is not available. Episodes with no date get a clear marker on the Calendar, and the week starts on the day your phone is set to. The What’s new sheet itself is easier to read.

The full list is in the changelog.
