Did not find this feature by myself. Had to have a forum discussion to realise this feature exists and is hidden in the advanced settings. Added hint that this is an advanced setting. |

Stash
Stash is a self-hosted webapp written in Go which organizes and serves your diverse content collection, catering to both your SFW and NSFW needs.
- Stash gathers information about videos in your collection from the internet, and is extensible through the use of community-built plugins for a large number of content producers and sites.
- Stash supports a wide variety of both video and image formats.
- You can tag videos and find them later.
- Stash provides statistics about performers, tags, studios and more.
You can watch a SFW demo video to see it in action.
For further information you can consult the documentation or access the in-app manual from within the application (also available at docs.stashapp.cc/in-app-manual).
Installing Stash
Step-by-step instructions are available at docs.stashapp.cc/installation.
Windows Users:
As of version 0.27.0, Stash no longer supports Windows 7, 8, Server 2008 and Server 2012.
At least Windows 10 or Server 2016 is required.
Mac Users:
As of version 0.29.0, Stash requires macOS 11 Big Sur or later.
Stash can still be run through docker on older versions of macOS.
Download links for other platforms and architectures are available on the Releases page.
First Run
Windows/macOS Users: Security Prompt
On Windows or macOS, running the app might present a security prompt since the application binary isn't yet signed.
- On Windows, bypass this by clicking "more info" and then the "run anyway" button.
- On macOS, Control+Click the app, click "Open", and then "Open" again.
ffmpeg
Stash requires FFmpeg. If you don't have it installed, Stash will prompt you to download a copy during setup. It is recommended that Linux users install ffmpeg from their distro's package manager.
Usage
Quickstart Guide
Stash is a web-based application. Once the application is running, the interface is available (by default) from http://localhost:9999.
On first run, Stash will prompt you for some configuration options and media directories to index, called "Scanning" in Stash. After scanning, your media will be available for browsing, curating, editing, and tagging.
Stash can pull metadata (performers, tags, descriptions, studios, and more) directly from many sites through the use of scrapers, which integrate directly into Stash. Identifying an entire collection will typically require a mix of multiple sources:
- The stashapp team maintains StashDB, a crowd-sourced repository of scene, studio, and performer information. Connecting it to Stash will allow you to automatically identify much of a typical media collection. It runs on our stash-box software and is primarily focused on mainstream digital scenes and studios. Instructions, invite codes, and more can be found in this guide to Accessing StashDB.
- Several community-managed stash-box databases can also be connected to Stash in a similar manner. Each one serves a slightly different niche and follows their own methodology. A rundown of each stash-box, their differences, and the information you need to sign up can be found in this guide to Accessing Stash-Boxes.
- Many community-maintained scrapers can also be downloaded, installed, and updated from within Stash, allowing you to pull data from a wide range of other websites and databases. They can be found by navigating to
Settings → Metadata Providers → Available Scrapers → Community (stable). These can be trickier to use than a stash-box because every scraper works a little differently. For more information, please visit the CommunityScrapers repository. - All of the above methods of scraping data into Stash are also covered in more detail in our Guide to Scraping.
StashDB is the canonical instance of our open source metadata API, stash-box.
Translation
Stash is available in 32 languages (so far!) and it could be in your language too. We use Weblate to coordinate community translations. If you want to help us translate Stash, you can make an account at Codeberg's Weblate to contribute to new or existing languages. Thanks!
