What quality do you go for with Radarr and Sonarr?
As the title says I’m curious what quality people choose. I chose Ultra-HD and am a little stunned when I look at the file sizes for some movies at 100GB.
Another question is how can I change the quality and will Radarr remove the existing download and then get a smaller one?
If it helps I have a GPU capable of hardware transcoding.
I don’t personally need ultra high quality movies. I just don’t see the difference. I go for the 2-3GB size. YIFY has been my go-to for years.
Thanks.
Same u less they don’t have it then I go TL or Avistaz

I just use the trash guides I don't do 4k and I have it as low as DVD because a lot of cartoons don't get picked up when I had dvd quality disabled.
To change the quality just make multiple profiles, i have one for 4k and one for regular. Default is regular but sometimes rarely I'll set a movie to 4k and then just hit the search button and it will upgrade it or downgrade if I went the other way
Thanks for this. I now know what I’m doing more.
It works with upgrade until. If you have a BluRay 2160p right now, it won't re-download a BluRay 1080p if you change the profile.
You can state wanted and max file sizes per format.
Ok thanks. I updated the settings.
On an unrelated note... do you guys all have private trackers? I haven't used one since the days of baconbits - now I'm in the market again because $24/month for netflix is ridiculous.
Generally 1080p and around 2-4GB per hour is my go-to. Less bitrate starts to show very obvious problems with darker areas so I avoid it.
