Simple TV Torrent Watcher

Watch TV shows, check EZTV or custom RSS feeds, and send magnets to supported WebUI clients or a local torrent app.

Simple TV Torrent Watcher is a workflow automation and personal productivity tool designed for media tracking enthusiasts. The extension injects a streamlined control interface directly onto supported EZTV domain layouts, allowing you to manage a persistent, localized watchlist without navigating away from the page. Key Features: • Localized Watchlist Management: Save, update, import, or export plain-text show watchlists directly within the browser UI. • Automated Metadata Parsing: Scans index pages and matches text records against your local watchlist. It securely benchmarks progress by tracking the last-downloaded episode string to filter out duplicate old results. • TVMaze API Integration: Cross-references parsed title strings with public TVMaze database metadata to resolve naming variations and prevent incorrect matches. • Flexible Client Integration: Pass user-selected magnet strings instantly via WebUI/RPC protocols to configured torrent clients (such as qBittorrent) or resolve them via local OS protocol handlers. • Local-First Privacy: Zero external tracking or telemetry. Your server credentials, connection settings, and watchlists are strictly confined to your local browser profile. 2.0.5 update Adds Searching Now and Paused / Ended lists, ended-show detection and removal, improved RSS fallback and filename imports, and prevents episode tracking from moving backward. Simple TV Torrent Watcher 2.0.6 is a scan-speed and reliability update. Fetches built-in EZTV RSS and custom RSS feeds once per scan instead of repeating those requests for every show. Reuses the same short-lived scan cache for the live EZTV-page scanner. Skips extra TVMaze title lookups when a show already has a saved IMDB id. Adds network timeouts so one slow mirror or feed cannot hold the scan open forever. Keeps the same permissions and storage keys, so existing watchlists and settings remain in browser storage. Simple TV Torrent Watcher 2.0.7 is a reliability update for scan results, imports, and full-season watch entries. Keeps S02E00 as a valid marker so whole-season entries can find S02E01 and newer episodes correctly. Prevents older backup/import lines from moving a saved last-downloaded marker backward. Prevents automatic sends from moving a saved marker backward. Tries another EZTV API mirror when one mirror responds successfully but returns zero torrents. Merges built-in EZTV RSS mirrors instead of using only the first feed with rows. Preserves season-specific backup lines such as FROM 1080p season 2 | S02E05. Keeps strict title matching for names such as Daredevil Born Again, Scrubs 2026, and M.I.A. Does not change storage keys, so existing watchlists and settings remain in browser storage.
