Radarr Media Management

We are going to set up Media management. Zodat films hernoemd worden. Otherwise there is a chance that you will get file names like 45984fhferuer455690545rbj.mkv. This will not always be the case. This depends on who uploads it in the newsgroups. This is done so that downloads are longer available in the newsgroups.

Now go to Settings.

Select Media Management.

Turn on Advance settings.

And also turn on rename.

Take over the settings below.

Standard Movie Format {Movie Title} ({Release Year}) {Quality Full}

Movie Folder Format {Movie Title} ({Release Year})

Ignore Deleted Movies on.

And click Save.

Profiles Radarr

These profiles make it possible to download the movies in the desired quality.

Go to the tablad Profiles.

As you can see. There are already quite a few good profiles in Radarr. With these profiles, you indicate. In what kind of quality your movies need to be downloaded.

I’m going to edit an existing profile.

Preferred Tags here I fill in x264 and x265.

Beware! Not every device can handle x265! So just fill this in. If you are sure that you can play x265 files. If you watch movies via a laptop, for example, make sure you have installed the latest VLC player.

Set quality

This allows you to indicate how large or how small the files should be.

The above are my settings.

The best way to take over this one is to take over. This ensures that less is downloaded. If you do not download animated series. Then you can set these settings more strictly. Animation series eat less space. Beware! the x265 format is also a lot smaller. You can go from 10 gig to 5 gig. De kwaliteit van x265 is net zo goed als x264. The good thing about this format is that you lose much less space on your hard drive.
