Frequently Asked Questions

+ How does Posteria interact with Plex?

Posteria can import posters directly from your Plex Media Server and sync customized posters back to it. To enable this functionality, you need to provide your Plex server URL and authentication token in the configuration. This allows Posteria to securely communicate with your server while maintaining all your customizations.

+ How do I find my Plex auth token?

You can find your Plex authentication token (X-Plex-Token) by following these steps:

  1. Log in to your Plex Web App
  2. Browse to any media item
  3. Click the 3 dots menu and select "Get Info"
  4. In the info dialog, click "View XML"
  5. In the URL of the new tab, find the "X-Plex-Token=" parameter

For more detailed instructions, visit the Plex Support article.

+ Is Posteria mobile-friendly?

Yes! Posteria is designed as a responsive Progressive Web App (PWA), which means it works beautifully on all devices from desktops to smartphones. You can even install it on your mobile device's home screen for quick access, just like a native app.

+ What is "Orphan Detection"?

Orphan Detection is a feature that helps you identify posters in Posteria that aren't linked to any media in your Plex library. This can happen when you remove content from your library but the posters remain in Posteria. Posteria can detect these orphaned posters so you can decide whether to keep them for future use or remove them to save space.

+ How secure is Posteria?

Posteria includes basic authentication to protect your poster collection. You can set your username and password in the docker-compose.yml file. We recommend changing the default credentials and using a strong password. All communication with your Plex server is done securely using your Plex authentication token.

If you want to make Posteria accesible outside your network it is recommended you use a service such as Tailscale™ or another VPN solution.

+ How do I update Posteria?

To update Posteria to the latest version, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to your Posteria directory
  2. Run docker-compose pull to download the latest image
  3. Run docker-compose up -d to restart with the new version

Your poster collection and settings will be preserved during updates as they're stored in the mounted volumes.

+ Where can I find posters for my media?

There are several excellent resources where you can find high-quality posters for your media library:

  • The Poster Database - A community-driven collection of custom posters with various styles and themes
  • The Movie Database (TMDB) - Extensive library of official and fan-made artwork, now fully integrated with Posteria for automatic poster fetching
  • The TV Database (TVDB) - Comprehensive database for TV show posters and fanart
  • Fanart.tv - High-quality artwork for movies, TV shows, and collections, now fully integrated with Posteria for automatic poster fetching
  • Mediux - Collection of professionally designed media artwork

Posteria supports using Mediux YAML files in the URL uploader when changing posters, making it a convenient choice for managing your collection.

+ Is Posteria available on Unraid?

Yes!

Posteria is available in the Unraid™ Community Apps store.
