unmanic
Docker app from Josh.5's Repository
Overview
Unmanic is a simple tool for optimising your file library with a highly customisable plugin system.
Remove the complexity of automatically converting your file library.
Simply point Unmanic at your library and let it manage it for you.
- Manage multiple independent libraries of any media file type with a large range of plugins.
- Simple to configure - don't waste your time with hours of setup. Just get the job done with Unmanic.
- Support for VAAPI/QSV/NVIDIA NVENC for hardware accelerated encoding.
- Schedule file scans at set intervals.
- Configure inotify file monitors for your libraries.
- Link with other installations to share in distributed processing of tasks. These other installations may be on:
- This same Unraid server
- A LAN connected PC (including across subnets)
- A Internet connected PC behind a basic auth proxy
- Linux, MacOS, Windows
- x86, Armv7, Arm64
- Toggle this Docker Container template editor to "Advanced View".
- In the "Extra Parameters" field, add "--cpus='1'".
This value depends on the number of cores available to the container. To limit to 50%, set this value to 0.5 * n cores. If you have 2 cores available to this container, "--cpus='.5'" will equal 25% of that available CPU resources. To limit the CPU cores available to the continer, use "CPU Pinning"
- Toggle this Docker Container template editor to "Advanced View".
- In the "Extra Parameters" field, add "--memory='1g'".
Unmanic can use on average around 100Mib - 500 Mib of RAM for various Disk IO tasks.
Even though limiting RAM is unnecessary as Unmanic should not ever need more that 1GB RAM it is good practice to do so.
Note: If you set your Cache Directory path to a tmpfs or RAM, limiting your memory allocation will affect the available RAM for the cache volume.
- Install the Nvidia-Driver plugin.
- Toggle this Docker Container template editor to "Advanced View".
- In the "Extra Parameters" field, add "--runtime=nvidia".
- Expand the template "Show more settings..." section.
- In the "NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES" variable, copy your GPU UUID (can be found in the Unraid Nvidia Plugin)
- Install the Intel-GPU-TOP plugin.
- Toggle this Docker Container template editor to "Advanced View".
- In the "Extra Parameters" field, add "--device=/dev/dri".
- Install the Radeon-TOP plugin.
- Toggle this Docker Container template editor to "Advanced View".
- In the "Extra Parameters" field, add "--device=/dev/dri".
Readme
View on GitHubUnmanic - Library Optimiser

Unmanic is a simple tool for optimising your file library. You can use it to convert your files into a single, uniform format, manage file movements based on timestamps, or execute custom commands against a file based on its file size.
Simply configure Unmanic pointing it at your library and let it automatically manage that library for you.
Unmanic provides you with the following main functions:
- A scheduler built in to scan your whole library for files that do not conform to your configured file presets. Files found requiring processing are then queued.
- A file/directory monitor. When a file is modified, or a new file is added in your library, Unmanic is able to again test that against your configured file presets. Like the first function, if this file requires processing, it is added to a queue for processing.
- A handler to manage running multiple file manipulation tasks at a time.
- A Web UI to easily configure, manage and monitor the progress of your library optimisation.
You choose how you want your library to be.
Some examples of how you may use Unmanic:
- Transcode video or audio files into a uniform format using FFmpeg.
- Identify (and remove if desired) commercials in DVR recordings shortly after they have completed being recorded.
- Move files from one location to another after a configured period of time.
- Automatically execute FileBot rename files in your library as they are added.
- Compress files older than a specified age.
- Run any custom command against files matching a certain extension or above a configured file size.
