About a few weeks ago I noticed that someone has been posting exe and zipx as normal shows in nyaa. For example Slow horses and Reacher. They post it a day before the release date so Sonarr picks it up.

    Been happening across many public trackers, and I’ve even seen it happen in Funfile. Best to filter out .lnk, .exe, and .zipx filetypes from your download client.

    That’s kinda funny actually. Sonarr is like “here you go!” and Jellyfin is like “wtf is this”

          Right, the files downloaded by qbit has to be manually deleted but if import fails (doesn’t move or create link in library folder) then jellyfin will not see it. It does show manual input required so at least it notifies you but yeah, can’t automate deletion within sonarr itself. I had this issue only twice on ext and the exe does nothing on linux with good permissions anyway so didn’t see a need to handle it but would be a nice security feature for microslop users.

          Edit: I do see a comment mentioning enabling the fail option in indexer can delete the files after it is fully downloaded. But others say it can’t so test it yourself.

    Using the arrs on (what I assume is) a public tracker takes bigger balls than I have. Or maybe I’m just too dumb lol. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve tried to knuckle down and dive into the the trash guides to really understand how quality profiles work. I still don’t get it.

      You don’t really need to mess with the quality profiles, the defaults are fine.

      All they do is filter the resolution/bitrate. You set a download to look for HDTV-1080p and it’ll look for something up to or including that resolution.

      Each quality profile also has a size picker with min/preferred/max setpoints, like 3.5GiB/h, so a one-hour video would be 3.5GiB. This is to filter something labeled as 1080p, but if it’s an hour long and only 20 MB it’s almost certainly a fake, which you want it to skip.
