I am sure I am just missing something simple... I have prowlarr -> sonarr/radarr -> qbittorrent -> jellyfin I created three directories. /jelly/video /sonarr /radarr. I configured sonarr and radar to use their respective directories. And I configured qbittorrent to use /jelly/video as the default download dir.

But what seems to be happening is that if I download a movie, it ends up in both /radarr and /jelly/video. And then if I delete it from /jelly/video it doesn't seed for others.

What am I missing here?

Mine is a little more complicated, but it gives me piece of mind and the ability to see what each program is doing, and to manually sort files if sonarr/radarr stop working for whatever reason

My folder structure is

  • downloads
    • incomplete
    • complete
      • tv
      • movies
  • video
    • tv
    • movies

Each component of my stack is isolated using docker and can only acess what it needs to. Sonarr, Radarr and qbittorrent are configured to use labels to keep the downloads directory sorted.

I can post my docker-compose.yml file if you want to have a look.

So you are intentionally keeping two copies of things?

[–] grayaytrox@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I am keeping 1 copy, with a hardlink to the other. It gets removed from qBittorrent once it has finished seeding

[–] SailorsLife@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

oh, hardlink. Linux I am guessing then? I am on windows for now. And it has been years since I tried to make a link in windows. I don't recall it going well back then. :) So what do you mean by finished seeding? Someone else implied they only seeded to some limit. What is the story there?

[–] grayaytrox@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Yes, however Windows offers hardlinks too, you just can't span them across drives with either os
