Layouts are saved per account and per tab, so every person can arrange their own.

PAUSE AUTOMATION

Stops all scheduled jobs (cleanup, unmonitor, stuck downloads, seasonal, folder checks) and pauses the SABnzbd download queue. Plex keeps working.

RESUME AUTOMATION

Starts all of that again.

PAUSE TDARR / RESUME TDARR

Stops new conversions on every Tdarr machine (anything already converting finishes) / lets them start again.

Storage pool

How full each drive is. Information only.

CPU / GPU

Live load of the server, Dylan's PC and the Laptop (via Netdata). A host shows Netdata not answering when it's off or its firewall blocks port 19999.

Folder paths → Check now

Checks that Radarr, Sonarr, SABnzbd and Seerr save into the Movies / TV Shows folders and fixes their settings if not. Runs itself every 6 hours.

Folder paths → Preview fix / Fix now

Tidies stray download folders listed under Needs a look: empty leftovers are deleted, the rest is offered to Sonarr/Radarr to import, and whatever they don't take goes to quarantine (restorable for 10 days). Films sitting at a drive root are moved into Movies.

Network — per port

Live speed of each of the server's network ports. Information only.

Wake Dylan's PC / Wake Laptop

Sends a Wake-on-LAN signal to switch that PC on (CPU / GPU box, or the button that appears when a PC isn't answering). Needs Wake-on-LAN turned on in the PC's BIOS and network adapter settings, and a network cable.

Disks — Server / Dylan's PC / Laptop

How hard each hard drive is working: % busy (green under 60%, amber 60-90%, red over 90% = the drive is the bottleneck), read and write speed, the 10-minute peak and a 10-minute graph. Server drives are named media1/2/3 and System drive and show how full they are; the PCs show how full each drive letter is. Information only.

Network — Dylan's PC / Laptop

The same for each adapter on those PCs (wired and Wi-Fi), read from their Netdata. Shows "isn't answering" when the PC is off or its firewall blocks port 19999.

Tdarr — converting now

What each Tdarr machine is converting and how long it has left.

RUN DUPLICATE SCAN

Looks for films/episodes you have twice and reports them (Duplicates tab). The nightly 2am run is the one that quarantines the worse copy.

RESYNC SONARR + RADARR

Repairs stale paths in their records, then rescans everything on disk. No files are moved.

RUN LIBRARY SCAN

Asks Sonarr and Radarr to rescan their folders.

Cleanup → Preview / Execute for real

Finds titles nobody has watched for a long time and moves them to quarantine (deleted after 10 days unless restored). Never touches anything streaming, converting or on the Exclusions list.

Radarr/Sonarr paths → Preview / Fix paths

Points their records at where folders really are (after folders were moved by hand). Records only, no file moves.

Stop watching titles at best quality → Preview / Unmonitor now

Unmonitors films/episodes that already reached their best quality so they aren't downloaded again. Runs itself every 6 hours.

Bloat files → Preview / Delete bloat files

Deletes junk next to your media: samples, .nfo/.txt/.url files, fake .exe files, screenshots. Permanent.

Rebalance storage → Preview / Execute for real

Moves titles from fuller drives to emptier ones (copy, check, then delete the original). Slow; one title at a time.

Recently added, Currently playing, Watch history and Upcoming episodes/films. Information only.

Request

Sends the title to Radarr/Sonarr through Seerr to download (TV = all seasons).

When each season's library opens and closes, and the titles in it. Remove keeps a title out for good; Put back undoes that.

Edit

Change the PIN (or remove it), which libraries the profile sees, and its stream limit / no-4K-transcoding rule.

Deletes the profile from your Plex Home.

Stop

Stops one of their streams right now (they see a message on screen).

Download watchlists

Master switch. When on, every 15 minutes each Plex profile's watchlist is read and anything new is requested in Seerr (then Radarr/Sonarr download it).

Turn one person's watchlist downloads on or off. Titles already requested stay requested.

Check now

Reads every watchlist straight away instead of waiting for the next 15-minute check.

Their requests

Click a person to see what their watchlist asked for and where it is now (requested / downloading, in library, partly in library).

Browser window

A Firefox browser running on the server. Websites see the server's internet connection as you, so it's like browsing from home wherever you are.

Reconnect

Reconnects the window if it froze or went blank. The browser itself (tabs, logins) keeps running.

Open in its own window

Opens the same browser full-size in a new browser tab.

Home IP / No-IP

Your current internet address and what wilkinsonhome.ddns.net points at. They should match; the server fixes it by itself within 5 minutes when EE changes your IP.

Update IP now

Sends your current address to No-IP straight away.

Cloudflare Tunnel

The connection that carries requests.wilkinsonhome.co.uk and dashboard.wilkinsonhome.co.uk. "Connected (4)" is normal. It doesn't depend on your home IP.

Sites

Whether the two public addresses answer. Checked from the server, so it shows the site is up; phones on mobile data also need their DNS to have caught up.

Update all

Refreshes every show (Sonarr) / film (Radarr): new episode info, rescans files.

Search wanted

Searches for everything missing and monitored.

SABnzbd

Download queue and speed. Information only.

Automatic in the background: every 30 minutes downloads that finished but got stuck are imported, dead queue entries cleared and missing titles searched again (pauses with PAUSE AUTOMATION).

Priority (top of the tab)

The Laptop converts everything. Dylan's PC only joins in while more than 10 files are waiting (or when the Laptop is off), and is switched back to 0 GPU conversions after the queue has been at 10 or fewer for 5 minutes. Its GPU slider is switched between 0 and its normal number automatically.

Worker sliders

How many GPU/CPU conversions and health checks each machine runs at once. 0 = that machine does none. Changes apply immediately.

New downloads are sent to Tdarr automatically when Sonarr/Radarr import them.

Stop / Start / Restart

Controls a container (an app).

Pull

Downloads the newest version of the app's image (doesn't switch to it yet).

Recreate

RUN BACKUP NOW

Backs up all app settings, databases and scripts (not your media). Also runs every Sunday at 5am.

Download

Downloads a backup zip.

Every background job (scans, cleanup, backups, Docker updates and the scheduled ones) with its output. All / Running / Finished / Failed filter the list; click a job to read its output. The list empties when the dashboard restarts — the Audit log keeps the permanent record.

Camera boxes

Live video from each camera (smaller, smooth stream). Only streams while the CCTV tab is open. Arrange / resize the boxes like any tab.

Full quality

Create or change a dashboard login: which tabs it sees (none / view / full), administrator, "can sign in from anywhere" (public link), reset its 2FA, disable it.

Reconnect / Open in its own window

The Claude Code terminal running on the server — full control of the server, like SSH as root. Type /exit to end the session.
