Servarr - Sonarr/Radarr/Prowlarr

Can anyone eli5 how to do this with Sonarr and radarr?

I've perused the trash guides but I'm still unsure.

I just want all movies and tv to download with French in addition to English

Thanks!

I am trying to migrate from Jacket to Prowlarr and I see that some of the most important indexers in Spanish (open) are not available. Could I add them manually from Generic Torznab? I don't have the api key, can I get it somehow from the jacket or from the web? Or is it not possible to do it at all and do I have to request it on Github?

When a file is manually replaced, for example after converting from an mp4 to an mkv; radarr decides to delete everything in that movies folder: posters, backdrops, subtitles, NFO files, leaving only the new video file; even though none of these were created or managed by Radarr ever.

This causes Emby to have to rescan/reidentify the item, re-downloading all the extra data, and it's now lost all custom metadata that was stored in the nfo, particularly the original date added to emby and it now has no subtitles.

How can I prevent this?

In attempting to download American Dad, I've discovered the list of known shows with episode numbering issues because of TVDb's unflexible naming conventions. I found the option to "override and add to download queue" on the Interactive Search, but it didn't seem to be correcting the info on import. I finally found on the Servarr FAQ this bit about the override feature, "Note that this overruled information is not carried over to the import logic and manual imports may be required," indicating my override selections are ignored intentionally. So what's the point of this feature? Unless I'm missing something here, it seems completely useless to even have this option available if the override selections are then just completely ignored through the rest of the download and import process. Am I using this wrong?

> I just went to watch a movie and my server said it wasn't there, so I went and check the PC folders and all of my movies are gone. Not in any of the recycling bins, not anywhere, just gone. What would have caused this? How do I stop it from happening again? It's been working fine for months then this just happened.

I have the issue that sometimes torrents get grabbed that have no seeders. Is there a way to automatically mark them as failed after some time? I currently have 3 torrents with 0 seeders at the top that are basically blocking the download of everything else.

> It tires me a lot to have to "choose" a preferred language for films or series, I speak several languages and therefore consume content in several languages, I don't want one of them to be "the preference" I just want to obtain the content in the original version, is there a way to configure this? > > As Radarr and Sonarr check the content on IMDB, they therefore know what the original language of the content is. It should therefore be possible to simply say: I want you to find the film/series for me in the original language.

Ahoy fellow pirates! I don't know if this is the best place to ask, but I'm having issues getting qBittorrent to automatically unrar files so that Sonarr\Radarr can import. I'm running qbittorrent-nox with the *arr stack natively on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

I have the following in "Run external program on torrent finished" /usr/bin/unrar x -o- -r "%F"/*.rar "%F"/ But nothing happens when a torrent completes. When I check the qBittorrent logs, there is one line with: Running external program. Torrent: "Name of Torrent". Command: `/usr/bin/unrar x -o- -r "/path/to/torrent/directory"/*.rar "/path/to/torrent/directory"/`

If copy and paste the above code into a terminal as the qbittorrent user, it extracts the rar files as expected. Is there anything I can check to get qBittorrent to unrar files automatically?

I finally got sonarr/radarr/prowlarr/sabnzbd configured and running in a local k3s cluster, and am thinking about genericizing then open sourcing it as a helm chart once I get cert manager thrown in the mix. Is this a worthwhile endeavor? I get the feeling most of the community uses docker compose.

What's the best practice for keeping everything behind a VPN? I'm running Ubuntu and have PIA installed outside of Docker. I want to for sure run qBittorrent and Prowlarr through a VPN. I was able to set up Gluetun and connect my containers to it.

I'd like to mirror my Windows set up with PIA installed, kill switch enabled, qBittorrent assigned to PIA network adapter only. I'm not sure how the network adapters work when qBittorrent is inside a container and PIA is outside.

My Current setup is something like this

{Movie.CleanTitle}.({Release Year}).{Edition.Tags}.{{Quality.Title}.{MediaInfo.VideoCodec}.{MediaInfo.VideoBitDepth}bit.{MediaInfo.VideoDynamicRange}.{MediaInfo.AudioCodec}.{MediaInfo.AudioChannels}{.MediaInfo.AudioLanguages}{-Release.Group}}

Because of this if there is a file with Russian audio as default and English as secondary I get a name like this

Avengers.Infinity.War.(2018).{Remux-2160p.HEVC.10bit.HDR.AC3.5.1.[RU+EN]-ExKinoRay}.mkv

I'd instead like to have the name of the file reflect similar to this

Zootopia.(2016).{Remux-2160p.x265.10bit.HDR.AC3.5.1.TrueHD Atmos.7.1.[RU+EN]-seleZen}.mkv

In this AC3 is the audio format for RU and TrueHD is the audio format for EN.

Is this setup possible via Radarr? I've tried {MediaInfo.AudioCodec:EN+RU} but it still gives me only the RU audio codec. I'm currently using version 4.5.2.7388

It downloads in /var/lib/transmission/Downloads but i want them to download in /mnt/Jellyfin/TV Shows/ so i can watch and keep seeding them

Use this megathread to share useful tools related to the Servarr apps, media management, usenet and torrent management, etc. I'll start it off with some of my favourite ones:

Recyclarr - Sync the TRaSH Guides Release Profiles to your Sonarr and Radarr instances

DockSTARTer - A script that installs Docker and other dependencies for you, it comes with configurations to run various apps.

Hotio - Collection of regularly updated and maintained docker containers for home server applications, if you want to go the Docker path yourself

LinuxServer.io - Another collection of docker containers with a lot of setup guides, helpful if you're new to Docker

TRaSH Guides are a collection of guides for the Servarr suite of apps - Sonarr/Radarr/Prowlarr along with general guides for torrent and usenet downloaders, subtitle automation with Bazarr and Media Server management with Plex

These guides are a must-have for anyone trying to automate their media curation. The Sonarr and Radarr pages also include examples of release profiles which are used to control the source and release groups of movies and tv shows grabbed by the apps.

Recyclarr can be used to sync these profiles and custom formats to your Sonarr and Radarr instances and keep them up-to-date as TRaSH makes changes to them.
