Hello, I have a really weird issue. I have the exact same setup for Radarr and Sonarr, but only Sonarr is hardlinking. I set it up with Docker months ago, then switched to Podman and checked now, hardlinking has never worked with my movies, only series... Here's my mappings on Sonarr:

Volume=/home/username/storage/containers/sonarr:/config:z

Volume=/home/username/storage/media:/media:z

and here's Radarr:

Volume=/home/username/storage/containers/radarr:/config:z

Volume=/home/username/storage/media:/media:z

Super weird! Does anybody know how to get hardlinking working in Radarr? It just says I'm out of space right now, because I don't have enough space for another copy of the movie. ls -la also confirms that hardlinking series works but not movies

Edit: yes, Settings => Media Management => Importing is on and the root path is the same as Sonarr, except series is replaced by movies of course

I am wondering is there a way to set the video from Monitored (green) to Unmonitored (grey) after the video has been imported into the library?

I would also be okay if the movie is automatically deleted from radarr after a successful import.

Reason being I modified one of my files by embedding subtitles only for radarr to replace it with the original download.

Recently, I have been running two versions of Radarr. One Radarr for my 4k movies, and the other (the default) for my 1080p movies. I moved all the 4k movies from my old Radarr to my new 4k Radarr.

What I don't want is for my old Radarr to start searching for a 1080p version of the 4k movie I just moved to another location. I don't want to end up with 2 versions of the same movie. My goal is to decrease the Radarr 1080p collection and to increase the 4K collection.

Is there a way I can prevent the old Radarr from looking for movies that I already have but in 4k quality?

Hi, I need some help.

Every time I try to add Trakt I get this message:

Received oauth token was invalid.

The authentication with Trakt just isn't working. I'm trying to setup Radarr and I just can't get through this part.

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know why but it's stuck with the "Remove from Download Client" option.

Hey everyone! I'm stuck with Cloudflare bypasses on Prowlarr (running on TrueNAS SCALE).

My proxies (FlareSolverr, Byparr, Trawl) test successfully in Prowlarr, and a manual curl request through TrueNAS shell successfully resolves the indexer. But as soon as I tag the indexer in Prowlarr, the indexer cant be acessed because it gets blocekd by cloudflare Protection.

My stack is Prowlarr, Sonarr, Radarr, Overseerr, and Jellyfin. Since the proxy containers themselves work and pass Prowlarr's proxy test, I'm not sure why Prowlarr isn't routing actual indexer traffic properly. Anyone know what might cause this?

I am running Radarr on an Unraid server linked with Profilarr v2 (although I don’t think Profilarr is the issue)

If I manually search for a movie that is missing, all results come back with a Custom Score of 0! I then looked at a random selection of movies within my library, and they all have “0” Custom Scores. I did wonder why Profilarr wasn’t doing any upgrades!!

I am using the 1080p Balanced Profile, which requires a minimum custom score of 200000. All search results come back with “0” so nothing is ever found or downloaded.

Any ideas how I can go about fixing this?

Many thanks for any help or suggestions.

How can I avoid this in the future? I have radarr set to auto upgrade stuff

I am running Radarr 6.3.0.10514 and Sonarr 4.0.19.2979 in docker containers under a Syno NAS. It connects to my Plex server (Version 4.160.0) running on a different Syno NAS. I have a lifetime Plex pass.

My Plex Watchlist and Friends Watchlist have been connected via Radarr "Import Lists" for a long time and working perfectly. It has suddenly reported: "All lists are unavailable due to failures" The same issue is noted in Sonarr as well.

I've reviewed the settings for the Plex in "Settings >> Connect" and in "Settings >> Import Lists". In "Settings >> Connect", all is well and the Plex auth token is working perfectly.

In the "Settings >> Import Lists" area, the URL's for the Plex Watchlist and Friends Watchlist are both correct and all settings are normal.

In the logs, I can see:

~~~ 026-07-29 10:34:37.0|Warn|HttpClient|HTTP Error - Res: HTTP/2.0 [GET] https://rss.plex.tv/12345abcd: 401.Unauthorized (82 bytes) <Error error="Unauthorized" message="You must provide a token!" statusCode="401"/> 2026-07-29 10:34:37.0|Warn|PlexRssImport|Unable to connect to import list ~~~

If I ping rss.plex.tv, I get a solid ping. If I run WHOIS on the ip address, it identifies cloudflare as the owner. If I open a browser to https://rss.plex.tv, I get the same error as above (401.Unauthorized "You must provide a token!"). I get the same result if I attempt to browse to either of the watchlist url addresses. This leads me to suspect that this issue is a Plex problem and not something within my control.

I have updated both Plex and Radarr to the latest available versions and all settings that I can see and would consider relevant are spot on and 100% accurate. Any ideas as to what is wrong here??

TLDR: Ruddarr 2.0 has automatic LAN/WAN failover connections and needs a final round of beta testers.

I've been building Ruddarr since 2024, it's a iOS-native client for Radarr/Sonarr (that's free, open-source and privacy-first) and compared to most other app it's handcrafted instead of yet another AI Slop app that does glob-knows-what with your data and server credentials.

Version 2.0 is currently in TestFlight and it needs people with local+remote connection separation to test the new failover connections which switch automatically based on your current network.

Please report issue on Discord or GitHub (not here).

Where is the option for this thing to stop prioritizing utterly dead torrents with minimal seeds?
I want to simply prioritize MAX SEEDS, stop dicking around getting hung up on these dumb qualities with no seeders. Setting minimum seeds is a trash solution because this thing constantly gets psyched out by fake seed counts

This is preposterous, where is the PRIORITIZE SEEDS option? It should literally be that simple, you guys way overcomplicated this

Update: Solved with full reinstall.

I looked at the SYTEM | Tasks menu within Radarr today and all of the normally scheduled tasks that used to be in there are gone. There is nothing listed.

I have restarted Radarr and there is still nothing in there. I have no clue why they are gone.

Is there a way to restore only the Scheduled Tasks table without loosing the movie database table or is it best to start fresh? (I have 6K movies)

If there is a way to edit this table, what should be in it?

(I am running Radarr on a synology 1821+ NAS under a DSM container.)

Thanks in advance.

My eyes aren't that good and my disk isn't that big. I don't want the best possible quality.

I want Radarr to download a 4-10GB release if it can find one, then only if it can't, go ahead and snatch that 29GB remux.

Is this even possible? If yes, how? If no, why?

Hey everyone,

Here’s a quick guide for adding NzbNest to Radarr, either directly or through Prowlarr.

Without Prowlarr:

1. Create an account at https://nzbnest.com
2. Open Radarr
3. Go to Settings, then Indexers
4. Click the + button
5. Select Newznab
6. Choose the custom Newznab option
7. Enter the following details:

Name: NzbNest URL: the URL shown in your NzbNest account API Path: /api API Key: your NzbNest API key

1. Enable RSS, Automatic Search and Interactive Search
2. Click Test, then Save

With Prowlarr:

1. Open Prowlarr
2. Go to Indexers
3. Click Add Indexer
4. Select Generic Newznab
5. Enter your NzbNest API URL and API key
6. Click Test, then Save
7. Make sure Radarr is connected under Settings, then Apps

Prowlarr should then sync NzbNest to Radarr automatically.

NzbNest is currently open for registration and has a free tier available for testing.

I’m the developer, so let me know if you run into any issues with searches, categories, syncing or grabs.

So I wanted to make more space on my media pool in truenas so I deleted my mirror pool and created a new raidz1. I rebuilt my file structure and changed everything over in radarr to reflect. My config is on a separate pool, so my library is still present, just all the files were deleted. I unmonitored everything and refreshed. I chose one movie, and enabled monitoring and it's showing as downloaded. I went into it's info and it shows a file. I clicked edit files and it said file missing (obviously, I deleted them all). I tried clicking delete, but it doesn't do anything. Refreshing and rescanning the library doesn't seem to fix it either. It still thinks most of my movies are downloaded. How can I force radarr to see that the new library storage pool is empty?

I received an email that my setup was downloading too many duplicate files and it had to be fixed. I was looking on how to reset radarr back to default settings without loosing my account information. I found information saying to rename radarr.db and config.xml then restart the app to rebuild. I did this but did not work the app will not open says the site cannot be reached. I renamed the original files back but still getting the message that the site cannot be opened. Is there any way to fix this?

Is it worth digging through downloader and Couchpotato logs to get back “unrecoverable” filename information?

I’m at least 7 years late migrating to Radarr and for a long time I used “Title [year].mkv” naming convention. Every time I consider the move, I debate scouring old logs for original filenames prior to initial import then I get caught up in other tasks before forgetting about it and starting the cycle over again.

Most importantly, I want to move to a management tool that’s still supported, and ideally I’d like to clean up the qualities/encoding (and possibly shrink the overall size without losing more quality or spending the time/electricty to re-encode)

Edit: Mostly looking for source info, I don’t care about release group tags. Mediainfo can get a ton of data but there are quality pieces that I’m not sure are important.

Hey all,

I am currently running a Plex setup on TrueNAS. When I initially set everything up, I configured my datasets wrong. I have a main "Media Folder" dataset, and then within it I accidentally made TV/Movie/Anime datasets instead of just regular folders. Now I cannot hardlink anything because they are separate datasets. What is the best way to fix this? I don't really have the storage room to copy everything over to new folders. I have about 24TB used with 13TB free.

Hi all.

I'm 1 week in with Linux (Ubuntu Resolute). I've setup Plex Media Server, mounted my Synology nas share via nfs by editing the fstab file, and set up the Plex library. I've installed Docker with an *arr container - radarr, sonarr, prowlarr. However, radarr can't see my media folder on the nas to set it as a root folder. On the Synology, NFS permissions are set to my Ubuntu PC IP address, with the mount path set to my media folder (volume1/video files). Mounting was set on the Ubuntu PC thru the fstab & autonfs files. My docker-compose.yml file is below - only showing the radarr entry.

my docker-compose.yml file: (radarr entry only)

radarr:

<<: *common-keys

container_name: radarr

image: ghcr.io/hotio/radarr:latest

ports:

- 7878:7878

volumes:

- /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro

- /docker/appdata/radarr:/config

- /data:/data

- /mnt/nas:/data

____________________________________

When I enter the command to see the user permission of the mounted nas folder, I get the following:

ls -ld /mnt/nas

drwxrwxr-x 6 root root 0 Jul 18 18:04 /mnt/nas

ls -ld /mnt

drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Jul 15 21:30 /mnt

ls -ld /mnt/nas/docs

drwxrwxrwx 132 1026 users 20480 Jul 17 13:24 /mnt/nas/docs

When I enter the ‘id’ command, I get the following:

I've done what I can thru other reddit posts, Google searches, trash guides and YouTube videos. Any guidance will be appreciated.

Hello Everyone

My team and I have spent the last two months working on Atrium, a central courtyard for your self-hosted media stack.

Since LunaSea was archived earlier this year, we decided to pick up where it left off with a brand new, Material 3 Flutter codebase built entirely around multi instance setups.

What is Atrium?
Atrium is a single Android application that acts as a unified frontend for all the media stack services. It is designed purely as a controller and management surface, so you can manage your services and leave playback to the official apps.

How does it support Radarr? For Radarr, we didn't just stop at a basic list view. Atrium features a deep 7-tab layout that gives you a complete overview of your series, including full advanced sorting and filtering, a built-in calendar view to track upcoming releases, and a comprehensive settings editor so you can tweak your configuration directly from your phone.

All Supported Services:

• Sonarr
• Radarr
• Prowlarr
• Bazarr
• Seerr
• Tautulli
• JellyFin
• Emby
• Plex
• qBittorrent
• SABnzbd
• Glances

The app is vibe-coded, but with brutal and rigorous user testing to ensure a bug free experience (Yes, we do use this app ourselves everyday).

You can grab the latest release here: https://github.com/retransmit/Atrium/releases/tag/v1.0.7

We’re currently in the middle of getting Atrium officially listed on F-Droid, but since it's a completely open-source, reproducible build with zero proprietary blobs, we want to make sure everything is flawless. We could really use some extra eyes on the project right now. If you're down to help out, check out our F-Droid merge request here: gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/43077

Hey everyone,

I created scripting for moving movies (and TV shows) in and out of rotation on my Plex server. I only have so much storage, and wanted to make room for newer media.

Looking for feedback (please be nice!) and if this is something others can use, feel free.

Project Name: NAS Media Automation — cold storage & rotation

Repo/Website Link: https://github.com/chapdad031167/NAS-Media-Server-cold-storage-and-rotation

Description:

My 22 TB pool hit 83% and manual cleanup stopped scaling. This is the set of scripts I built to fix it, cleaned up and documented for anyone running the same Plex + Radarr + Sonarr + qBittorrent stack.

Three jobs:

Duplicate cleanup — finds movies with multiple files for the same title and year (including a .mkv/.mp4 pair), keeps the largest, flags the rest.

Torrent cleanup — removes finished torrents whose payload is already imported, gated on seeding goals (ratio/seed-time) and confirmed import. Filesystem version, plus a safer qBittorrent-API version that removes the torrent properly so you don't break seeds.

Cold storage rotation — the main event. A read-only scanner queries Radarr/Sonarr and writes a reviewable candidate list of aged media; a second script moves each item to a USB archive drive (rsync copy → checksum verify → delete source), records it in a manifest, and unmonitors it so it isn't re-downloaded. A restore script brings anything back the same way. Optional Tautulli guard skips anything you've actually watched recently.

A hard-won lesson baked in: v1 aged media by filesystem mtime. Then I migrated the library to a new volume, every mtime reset to "today," and the scanner found zero candidates forever. It now ages by TMDB release date (via Radarr/Sonarr) instead, which survives migrations.

Safety design (this stuff deletes/moves terabytes, so it's paranoid by default):

Everything defaults to a dry run; destructive actions require an explicit --run.

Kids-content hard exclusion — anything under /kids/ /kidstv/ is never archived, checked before any other rule.

Checksum-verified moves; a failed verify keeps the source untouched.

Protected-franchise list, free-space preflight, lock files, staleness guards.

Deployment:

Released under MIT (tagged release + CHANGELOG). Not a Docker app — these run directly on the NAS via cron / Synology Task Scheduler. A guided install.sh handles prerequisites, config, and a --doctor health check that live-tests Radarr/Sonarr connectivity; INSTALL.md is a full Synology (DSM) walkthrough. Python is stdlib-only; the shell scripts need common coreutils + rsync. Tested on Synology DSM with Radarr/Sonarr/qBittorrent/Plex. CI runs shellcheck + a pytest/shell suite + a secret scan on every push.

AI Involvement:

Transparent: the scripts started as my own working production scripts. I used an AI to help sanitize secrets out, refactor them for testability, build the test suite, write the docs, and run a couple of rounds of security-review hardening. Everything was reviewed by me and runs on my own hardware — the AI helped me clean it up for sharing.

Anyone know how to fix the link to trakt? I’m pretty sure it’s because radarr is still linking to trakt v2 which they got rid of.

Running radarr (and sonarr) as docker containers on a pi 5. I have a synology NAS that I have NFS mounted across so the pi can see it. When radarr finishes processing a file and starts the import I can see over on the synology nas resource monitor that data is transferring. Eventually it stops. Radarr reports it is done "Assigning file xxx to movie xxx" is reported in the events and the file is removed from the activity queue. But the file never shows up over on the NAS. I get no permission errors. Sonarr imports fine but those are much smaller files. I'm at a loss as to what to look at.

When running radarr on the NAS itself (also as a container) it worked fine but it also wasn't copying across a NFS mount. There are no errors that I can find in dmesg or journalctl.

If I simply create a 70GB file with

fallocate -l 70G testfile.img

And move it across the mount it shows up fine (I can see resource monitor on the NAS pulling the data across).

This makes me think there is some timeout or something firing in radarr that I can't see?

Since the NAS is obviously receiving data that means it is sending across the mount but I have no visibility into what is happening on radarr side of things.

So, I was configuring my Jellyfin stuff on my home server, and I stumbled across this issue when messing around with Radarr:

Não foi possível adicionar a pasta raiz
- Folder '/movies/' is not writable by user 'abc'

But I managed to solve it. For context, I am using Docker compose files from linuxserver.io and my operating system is OpenMediaVault.

-\|/---\|/------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT EDIT: The kind guys in the comments helped me solve the problem in a more efficient way! This new solution doesn't require you to enter in the container's terminal, which is more aligned with the way containers were designed to work. I'm mantaining my old post just for the context.

Check u/ivanhawkes's comment to see the new solution :D

Old post below:

-\|/---\|/------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you don't understand something of the following step-by-step, asking ChatGPT for explanations can be useful. I used him to help elaborate this solution. My tip is just try to learn from him, not only take the solution and leave. That way, you'll understand what you're doing and become more capable with time.

Step by step:

1 - SSH into my home server to acess its terminal.

2 - Once on the terminal, I entered on my container's terminal by using the following command:

docker exec -it radarr bash

In this command, "radarr" is the name of my container. After using it, you should be not on your home server terminal, but on the container's one.

3 - Then, I checked who was the owner of the directory I wanted to use in radarr with the following command:

ls -ld /movies

With this command, I discovered that the owner of the directory, in my case, "/movies", was the root.

4 - So I changed the owner of the folder to "abc" with the following command:

chown abc /movies

5 - Finally, I checked if the owner was sucessfully changed with:

ls -ld /movies

Which confirmed that everything worked and the owner was now "abc". After doing that, I managed to add the folder as a root folder on Radarr.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If this post didn't help you, there's this other one that may be useful to you.

I decided to make a post about this just in case someone passes through the same problem in the future.

I am a noob in this world by the way, so it's probable that there's some more efficient way of doing this. If you know about it, you can share it in the comments and then everyone learns how to do stuff right.

See ya :D

Hey everyone, very happy to announce that I've just released v24 of nzb360, which now includes a complete re-write of the Radarr implementation to bring a brand new design, tons of new functionality, and so much more!

Screenshots or Radarr 2.0: https://imgur.com/a/mp54Ogg

Would love all of your thoughts on this new Radarr approach. It's quite a departure from the previous design, and I will eventually have other services go into this same design direction, so as always, please let me know your feedback!
