# Quality Settings (File Size)
I often get the question "What's the best quality settings to use?"
Well, it's actually personal preference so I will show you my recommendations.
But before you continue to read, as with all my guides:
!!! danger ""
**If you don't care about quality then stop reading and see if the other tutorials are helpful for you.**
These Quality Settings have been created and tested with info I got from others, and release comparisons from different sources.
??? question "FAQ - [Click to show/hide]"
## FAQ
**Q: Why do you only show starting from HDTV720p?**
A: With the big screens these days anything lower doesn't look watchable
**Q: Why do you have some sizes set to max?**
A: You probably didn't read the bold text above
**Q: When I set Bluray to MAX size I often get ISO's/ Bluray folder structure.**
A: You probably have configured your Quality Profiles wrong and enabled BR-DISK and didn't add the recommended Custom Profile to help Radarr to block/ignore it. [BR-DISK](/Radarr/Radarr-collection-of-custom-formats/#br-disk){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}
**Q: Some movies won't be grabbed because of these settings.**
A: If you notice that some movies won't be grabbed because of these size settings, you can provide me proof with a screenshot and the error it shows you when you do an interactive search (non redacted except the indexer/tracker if you want to).
- I will only accept changes that are international releases. No multi, or dubbed language releases.
- I won't accept mislabeled source releases like from MeGusta etc. (They should learn to name their stuff properly first)
- I won't accept changes for micro sized releases.
- Documentaries and cartoons are often much smaller so I probably won't edit those either.

!!! note
The reason why you don't see the `Preferred` score in the table above is because we want max quality anyway. So set it as high as possible.
The highest preferred quality you can manually enter is 1 less than the Maximum quality. If you use the slider, the preferred quality can be up to 5 lesser than the Maximum quality.
Make sure you have enabled 'Show Advanced' in Radarr, if you don't see a provision to enter the scores, under the Quality settings.
