-Then we would use the following order:
- +Dolby Vision is available in several profiles

Hint
-If you (or family members you share your collection with) have a setup that doesn't support Dolby Vision then it's best to add ALL the HDR Formats listed above (including ALL the DV ones (with and without HDR in it), It is important to also add the DV (WEBDL) Custom Format with a score of -10000
-I also suggest to change the Propers and Repacks settings in Sonarr
+Media Management => File Management to Do Not Prefer and use the Repack/Proper Custom Format.

-If you prefer 720p/1080p WEBDL (WEB-1080p)
-I suggest to first follow the Quality Settings (File Size)
-If you think the sizes are too big to your preference then stop reading and see if the other tutorials are helpful to you.

Breakdown and Why
0 or just don't add it.-10000.I decided not to add Audio Advanced Custom Formats to the WEB profile, You will hardly find HD audio with WEB-DL (Most newer WEBDL will have Atmos). If you also want HD audio formats I would suggest to go for the Remuxes.
Use the following main settings in your profile.
The reason why I have WEB 1080p merged with the 2160p is because some NF releases won't be released as 4k, but I still want to have DV/HDR releases. -If you want to do the same make sure you replace x265 (HD) with x265 (no HDR/DV).
+ +Tip
+The order listed in the profile matters even if a quality is not checked, for example if you have a 1080p version but wanted the SD version, Radarr will reject all SD results because 1080p is listed higher than SD even though 1080p was not checked.
+Qualities at the top of the list will appear first in manual searches.
+This is why it's recommended to move the selected quality to the top of the list.
+The following workflow will be applied:
+ +So why such a ridiculously high Upgrade Until Custom and not a score of 500?
Because I'm too lazy to calculate the maxim
-I only do WEB-DL my self for TV shows because in my opinion WEB-DL is the sweet spot between quality and size and you often don't see big differences anyway for TV shows. (Except for shows like GOT, Vikings, etc)
-Scene groups always release in a rush to bring it out as fast as possible.
-So I noticed often that I got Repacks/Proper releases from them or from different groups and quality. P2P releases are a bit smarter and work sort of together by not doing the same release. Also, I noticed that with some scene releases the 5.1 audio was stripped out or converted to AAC audio.
-In my opinion the P2P releases are of better quality. There's one scene group that does bring out quality releases -deflate/-inflate.
A large portion of Amazon WEB-DLs in the last week have only had 192Kbps DD+5.1, because that's all Amazon made available initially. The proper 640Kbps DD+5.1 audio might appear a few hours later or a few months, but when they get updated, the episodes will be REPACKED.
-For Custom Formats you really want to avoid, set it to something really low like -10000 and not something like -10.
-Being when you add a Custom Format what you prefer and you set it to something like +10 it could happen that for example the BR-DISK will be downloaded (-10)+(+10)=0 and if your Minimum Custom Format Score is set at 0.
All Custom Formats with a score of 0 are pure informational and don't do anything.
+So why such a ridiculously high Upgrade Until Custom and not a score of 100?
Because I'm too lazy to calculate the maximum for every Quality Profile I use, and I want it to upgrade to the highest possible score anyway.
I also suggest to change the Propers and Repacks settings in Sonarr
-Media Management => File Management to Do Not Prefer and use the Repack/Proper Custom Format.
