Well hello there, I’m diving into the *arr suite of things currently and am trying to setup everything to my usecase. I think I mostly already understood, how a single quality profile works within itself, like upgrading quality and so on. But what I didn’t get yet, why would I want multiple different quality profiles to exist?

I mostly am having this priority list:

  • BluRay 1080p
  • Any 1080p
  • Any <1080p

Would there be a difference of having these three as separate quality profiles or having them within one quality profile? What’s the preferred way there (if that’s not just dependant on the usecase)?

    Yeah, there’s been a few times I needed lower quality versions for say screens in a vehicle and to cram as many as possible on an SD card. That’s been my only use of it. Otherwise I keep an any profile with the cut off being the best 4k version.
