seerr + Hide Requested Media

seerr, with the ability to hide already-requested titles from Discover — available today, before it lands upstream.

ghcr.io/danieldjupvik/seerr:latest

Seerr has long had a Hide Available Media setting, but nothing to hide titles you've already requested — so Discover pages fill up with things you've already asked for. That feature has been requested for years across Overseerr #3681, Jellyseerr, and seerr #1048, and an implementation exists in PR #1855 — it just hasn't been merged yet.

This repo publishes the latest official seerr release with that PR applied, plus two small reviewed fixes to it (documented in patches/). Nothing else is changed. You get a new Hide Requested Media checkbox in Settings → General, right next to Hide Available Media:

  • Titles that are requested or processing (the ones showing a Requested/Processing badge — whether requested in seerr or synced from Radarr/Sonarr) disappear from Discover pages and sliders; declined requests don't hide anything
  • They stay visible in search, so you can still find them and see their request status
  • Global admin setting, off by default — based on the upstream PR, with its review findings fixed and hiding extended to cover arr-synced titles (see patches/)

Quick start

The image is a drop-in replacement for ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr:latest — same app, same ports, same config format. Switching in either direction is just changing the image name; your existing config and database are untouched.

Docker Compose

services:
  seerr:
    image: ghcr.io/danieldjupvik/seerr:latest
    container_name: seerr
    environment:
      - TZ=Europe/Oslo
    ports:
      - 5055:5055
    volumes:
      - ./config:/app/config
    restart: unless-stopped

Docker CLI

docker run -d \
  --name seerr \
  -e TZ=Europe/Oslo \
  -p 5055:5055 \
  -v /path/to/config:/app/config \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  ghcr.io/danieldjupvik/seerr:latest

Unraid

Edit your existing seerr container and change the Repository field to ghcr.io/danieldjupvik/seerr:latest. Everything else stays the same.

Enable the feature

After starting: Settings → General → Hide Requested Media → check it, save.

Tags

Tag Meaning
latest Newest upstream release + the patch (mirrors upstream's latest)
vX.Y.Z-pr1855 Pinned build of a specific upstream release, for rollback

How it stays up to date

A scheduled GitHub Actions workflow runs weekly (and on every merged patch change):

  1. Checks that PR #1855 is still open upstream.
  2. Checks for a new upstream release. If there's nothing new, it exits — no rebuild, no image churn.
  3. On a new release: clones upstream at the release tag, applies the vendored, reviewed patches (the PR diff pinned to a specific PR commit, plus small reviewed fixes — see patches/README.md), builds with upstream's own unmodified Dockerfile, and pushes. Typically live within a week of an upstream release.

There is no fork being maintained here. Every build starts from pristine upstream source; the only delta is the vendored patches, applied at build time. The patch content is never fetched from the network during a build — it can only change through a reviewed commit in this repo.

Can I trust this image?

Reasonable question for any third-party image. You don't have to take anyone's word:

  • Everything is built in public. Every image comes from a GitHub Actions run in this repo — the full build logs show exactly which upstream tag was cloned and which diff was applied. There are no manual pushes and no secrets involved beyond the repo's own GITHUB_TOKEN.
  • The only changes are pinned, vendored diffs (patches/): the public upstream PR written by @0xSysR3ll, verbatim, plus a small documented fixup. You can read every line here, and diff the PR copy against the upstream PR yourself. Builds never pull patch content from the network, so an update to the upstream PR branch cannot silently change this image.
  • Don't want to trust it anyway? Run your own. Fork this repo, enable Actions, and you'll build and publish the identical image into your own GHCR namespace in ~20 minutes.

Limitations

  • linux/amd64 only. No ARM builds (keeps CI fast; open an issue if you'd genuinely use one).
  • Up to a week behind upstream releases (weekly schedule; run the workflow manually if you want a release sooner).
  • Global setting, not per-user — same as the upstream PR and the existing Hide Available Media setting.
  • If a new upstream release conflicts with the patch, no image is published for it: the pipeline fails loudly and the previous version stays available until the vendored diff is updated (reviewed, then committed). You keep a working seerr; you're just temporarily behind.
  • Not affiliated with the seerr team. If you hit a seerr bug while on this image, please reproduce it on the official image before reporting it upstream — don't send the maintainers chasing ghosts from a patched build.

What happens when the PR merges upstream?

This repo retires itself. The scheduled workflow detects the merge, opens an issue here with switch-back instructions, and disables itself. At that point: wait for the next official release containing the feature, change your image back to ghcr.io/seerr-team/seerr:latest, and keep the checkbox — it'll be the real one. Your config carries over cleanly, including the setting itself. One behavioral note: as currently written, the upstream PR hides only titles requested through seerr — this image also hides titles synced from Radarr/Sonarr. If that gap matters to you, weigh in on the upstream PR.

If you want this to happen sooner, go 👍 PR #1855 and issue #1048.

This repo is just plumbing that connects the two a little earlier than the release cycle would.
