High quality audio can consume a great deal of disk space, but it’s probably going to unavoidable if you’re looking for releases with multiple audio and subtitle tracks available. I would not exactly call this rare anymore, but it’s definitely not the default so you want to wait until after you have search and download working across the board.

The only thing I didn’t see on your list is any type of library optimization. I kind of gave up on it myself because it’s faster for me to just redownload something than recompress it, and that’s their major use case… but you might find utility in removing additional audio or subtitle tracks, or to rearrange defaults.

Handling additional data streams like subtitles and multiple languages is not quite as mature, hardware players often have strong preferences. Something to keep in mind as your planning out your setup.

Great insights!

I am almost giving up because my setup isn’t working properly. I really cannot see what is the problem. I have everything installed and running, but I could not follow the TRaSH Guides, nor the very few videos available outside there.

What am I waiting of it? “Simple.” To open Jellyseerr, look for something I want to add to my library (series or movies), then have it available on Jellyfin (through my server), doing the automatic download using RD.

I am missing something, and I really don’t know what is it.

Do you have any suggestions of a step-by-step guide? If yes, I would appreciate it so much!

Unfortunately I can’t be of much specific help, my setup is pretty specific to my NAS and my content comes from usenet so it’s a little bit different.

But the first thing to do is bring it up in stages, starting with running one workflow. Say movies because they are a bit simpler. Run your search from inside Radarr and check the logs, you should get a good idea of where it’s breaking. Once Radarr is working as expected and placing the processed download in the right place you can move the same settings to Sonarr. After those are working then try running them from Jellyseerr.

If you get stuck post the error message you’re getting, without that we can’t help.
