I only download 1080p unless it’s something like LOTR that I’ll splurge on space for. A comedy doesn’t need spectacular visual fidelity.
Just downloaded a 44gb file for a 1080p version of Forest Gump, and I’m just kinda not interested in filling my hard drives with excessive file sizes. Noticed that some other films are 20gb and 13gb, etc, still way too big for what they are.
Any way to maybe have radarr have a file size preference? Like, for 1080p I don’t need it to be any bigger than 3gb, and most movies can be 1.5gb and be fine
Edit: I have to say, I asked a beginner/basic question and no one here has tried to belittle me, or come at me with hostility, I’ve only gotten helpful advice. Thank you all!
I use tdarr on my gaming machine and use the higher end GPU to do the work. I also use the trash guide for getting the audio profile I want in my downloads. Then in tdarr, I strip away audio and subtitle languages I don’t want and use the highest quality audio source to add a simple 2 channel audio to make it more compatible for more devices. That way I’m not needlessly transcoding 5.1 Dolby for people who are just watching on TV audio.
