Can anyone eli5 how to do this with Sonarr and radarr?

I’ve perused the trash guides but I’m still unsure.

I just want all movies and tv to download with French in addition to English

Thanks!

    So I changed your recommendation, and tried it with Inside Out 2.

    There’s definitely a geek file. Radarr upgraded my 2160p 30+gb file to a 22+gb remux1080p file. I watched it download so I know it did its thing.

    But it didn’t grab a “multi” file with French. Just two different English audio tracks haha

      Ok, so on Geek there are a couple releases that fit the custom format score we made. If you do an interactive search, you can see a couple releases have a custom format score:

      The +100 is the score for the release, which will be prioritized over the ones with a score of 0.

      I forgot we need to make another change to your quality profile. Radarr and Sonarr will prioritize quality of the custom format score, so if you have it set to upgrade until BR-DISK for example, it will prioritize a BR-DISK release over one that matches your custom format score. What we have to do is batch the qualities together through the blue “edit groups” button in your fifth screenshot, and batch all the qualities together that you are okay with the system pulling.

      Here is what that may look like:

      Put all of your qualities together in a group. After I did that and performed a search, it grabbed a release that fit the custom format score upgrade.

        So I thought it worked. Went through about 400gb of movies to change it. Almost none of them downloaded in French (and I spot checked a few of them to make sure they were on geek). Would there be a reason that within the group, it would still prioritize quality over custom score?

          Yes, if the release does not have the language set as English and French, it won’t be have the higher custom format score.

          For me, because I grab anime, they are usually set as Japanese, and I have the system look for the word “dual” within the title. But that probably won’t work with what you’re trying.

          Does the interactive search show a release with a higher custom format score?

          Can you provide some examples and/or screenshots?

            I think sometimes the title says multi but sometimes not. Here’s some shots with “IF” as the example. First one is search results for Geek. Second is file downloaded. 3rd is options when searching through radarr
