The Current logic on how downloads are compared is **Quality Trumps All** :bangbang:
In some cases it might be preferred to not have Quality Trump All, and let it be handled via Preferred Words / Custom Formats.
To accomplish this you will need to merge the quality's with each other.
## Current Logic
Here you will see the current logic so you understand how the possible downloads are compared.
As of 2021-11-06 the logic is as follows:
### Radarr current logic
??? summary "Radarr current logic- [CLICK TO EXPAND]"
1. Quality
1. Custom Format Score
1. Protocol
1. Indexer Priority
1. Indexer Flags
1. Seeds/Peers (If Torrent)
1. Age (If Usenet)
1. Size

!!! attention ""
REPACKS and PROPERs are v2 of Qualities and thus rank above a non-repack of the same quality.
`Settings` => `Media Management` => `File Management` => `Proper & Repacks` Change to `Do Not Prefer` and use the [Repack/Proper Custom Format](/Radarr/Radarr-collection-of-custom-formats/#repack-proper){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}
### Sonarr current logic
??? summary "Sonarr current logic- [CLICK TO EXPAND]"
1. Quality
1. Language
1. Preferred Word Score
1. Protocol
1. Episode Count
1. Episode Number
1. Indexer Priority
1. Seeds/Peers (If Torrent)
1. Age (If Usenet)
1. Size

!!! attention ""
REPACKS and PROPERs are v2 of Qualities and thus rank above a non-repack of the same quality.
`Settings` => `Media Management` => `File Management` => `Proper & Repacks` Change to `Do Not Prefer` and use a preferred word regex of `/\b(repack|proper)\b/i`
## Merge the Qualities
Go to your preferred Quality Profile or create a new one.
`Settings` => `Profiles`
In this example we will merge the following qualities together:
- Bluray-720p
- Bluray-1080p
- WEBDL/WEBRip-1080p
To merge them you need to click on Edit Groups.
When done Sonarr/Radarr upgrades will be handled via Preferred Words / Custom Formats.
