What is Radarr?

Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line now shows every audio and subtitle stream per file.

Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line is on its second build. 7.0.0 moved the app to .NET 10 and added OIDC login, PEM certificates and Trakt Smart List imports. 7.0.1 follows with media info that lists every audio and subtitle stream, full Transmission label support and clearer import-failure messages. The main branch is still on 6.4.4.

What is Whereby?

Whereby folds three months into one digest and still lists nothing specific

Whereby's latest entry covers August through October in a single round-up, again framed around developer experience and SDKs, with no concrete features in the feed text. The last specific capabilities visible are session ratings for Embedded customers in April and the native iOS SDK leaving beta in February.

Radarr vs Whereby: editorial side-by-side

R

COLLAB
5.0

Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line now shows every audio and subtitle stream per file.

◆ Current state

Radarr's 7.0 pre-release line is on its second build. 7.0.0 moved the app to .NET 10 and added OIDC login, PEM certificates and Trakt Smart List imports. 7.0.1 follows with media info that lists every audio and subtitle stream, full Transmission label support and clearer import-failure messages. The main branch is still on 6.4.4.

◆ Where it's heading

The 7.0 cycle pairs a platform upgrade with deeper file-level detail: media info, import diagnostics and download-client labels. The media info migration was split into batches to avoid running out of memory, which shows the team is hardening the upgrade path for large libraries before a stable release.

◆ Prediction

More 7.0.x pre-release builds with import and media info fixes are likely before 7.0 reaches the main branch; the entries do not show a date for that promotion.

Whereby folds three months into one digest and still lists nothing specific

◆ Current state

Whereby's latest entry covers August through October in a single round-up, again framed around developer experience and SDKs, with no concrete features in the feed text. The last specific capabilities visible are session ratings for Embedded customers in April and the native iOS SDK leaving beta in February.

◆ Where it's heading

The cadence is slowing: monthly digests have become a quarterly one, and the framing remains aimed at developers embedding video rather than meeting hosts. Without specifics in the notes, the direction can only be read from the framing, which points at SDK and embedding work.

◆ Prediction

The next entry is most likely another multi-month SDK round-up; the feed gives no signal of a larger launch.
