This is so awesome, but any plans for Jellyfin integration?

I don’t have any plans at the moment but I welcome anyone who would like to fork the project for this. Happy to try and make things easy for you.
Jellyfin is a bit trickier because it requires quite a strict file structure, and most (if not all) debris services don’t let you change the file structure of your drive. Itstoggle is working on an artificial sorting branch for his fork of rclone for real debrid which should be able to rename files for jellyfin to understand
For someone with an established plex, jellyfin, etc system, what did Debrid and Torrentio offer for you to switch?
I have a "traditional" home server with Plex + *arr + torrent client set up. It's great, but I need to manage the storage space on my NAS and I have to wait a few hours between requesting media and watching it. Using Debrid with Torrentio means I don't have to wait for a download or find a place to store it.
Right now I run both Coaxist and my old Plex server in parallel.
What's the benefit of this over just using plex_debrid?- I'm currently using plex_debrid hence the question.
Why are they all in one container Vs using docker compose? - this kinda goes against the mantra of using containers.
How do you intend to handle updates of the other services?
Great work however, I don't want you to feel I'm being too negative.
Thanks for all the questions and I absolutely don’t think you’re being too negative! This was mainly made to scratch an itch I had, but I hope that other people find it useful too.
The main difference between this and plex_debrid is that this is set up out of the box to work without manual integration steps. You don’t have to copy the Plex API key around — simply sign into Plex and Overseerr, and my config script handles wiring your watchlist up to request content.
I’ve also built a high-quality media selection algorithm that I think is the best out there for getting the copies of media you want to make your users happy. Check out the docs on Media Profiles.
Putting everything in one container doesn’t necessarily break the mantra of using containers. I use containers all day at my job and in my personal clusters. What I’ve found is using tools like Docker Compose to distribute software makes it much harder for people to run my software on home servers like Unraid — and there wasn’t a technical reason I couldn’t bundle these into one container to make it easier. In this case, the services are pretty coupled and I don’t have much need to scale them up individually.
I haven’t built any automation for this yet, but my repo tracks the upstream sources for rclone, pms-docker, and Overseerr, and I’d like to pull in those updates as I cut new releases.
I know it's been around for a long time, but I just heard about Real Debrid. My current setup is Wasabi + Rclone + Jellyfin, plus all the *arr services. What's the benefit of Real Debrid over this setup, aside from cached torrents?
You've identified the main benefit – Debrid services provide cached torrents for "instant" downloads. Streaming straight from a Debrid service's fileshare also means you don't need to buy drives or additional storage.
When you say Wasabi, do you mean the hosted S3-compatible cloud storage service?
Thats cool! I am curious, how does this differ from https://github.com/itsToggle/plex_debrid or in one image https://github.com/I-am-PUID-0/pdrcrd ?
Does this mean we only need one debrid account when using plex in different places? I am currently responsible for the movie+series management in my family and will put things on plex for whatever is in demand. However it would be nice if I didnt have to do this, and that they could just fetch things themeselves in Plex. Not super keen on having to pay for a debrid account per location, as debrid will ban the account if seen to be used on different public addresses (if im not mistaken)
