New & Popular and People

See new releases and what is popular on streaming, and browse everything one actor or director made.

Find something new

1. Open New & Popular in the menu (http://your-server:6262/popular).
2. Pick All, TV shows, Movies or Music at the top.
3. Scroll the rows. Press a card to open the title, then ask for it or add it.

Music shows only when the Music part is on. If Music is turned off while picked, the page goes back to All.

The big title at the top changes each visit and says why it is there, such as a new season or a chart place.

Some rows have a chip per streaming service. Pick one to see only that service, or All. The pick applies to that row only.

Browse a person

1. Open a movie or show page.
2. In the cast, press an actor or director.

You should see their page at http://your-server:6262/people/<id>. People with the same name stay separate.

Filter with Credit role (All, Actor, Director) and Sort (Popular, Newest first, Oldest first). Each card shows where the title stands for you, such as In your Library, Requested or Approved, waiting for a copy.

Viewing a person adds nothing, and HolyArrs does not follow their future work.

If it does not work

Symptom: “New & Popular is getting ready.” Cause: rows are still being built from outside lists. Fix: wait a few minutes, or use Explore meanwhile.

Symptom: a New & Popular row is missing. Cause: its list could not be fetched. It comes back on a later visit.

Symptom: “No movies match this role.” Fix: set Credit role to All.

Symptom: a person page has no photo or story, or does not load. Cause: the metadata server has none, or HolyArrs cannot reach it. Fix: try again later.

For experts

Where person data comes from

People, credits and pictures come from the metadata server. Awards, birth details and the story come from Wikidata and Wikipedia through the same server. HolyArrs does not guess missing names or roles.
