Streaming Optimized (SQP-1 2160p)
Info
Keep in mind this SQP is a WIP, Changes are done when needed.
It uses Custom Formats and specific needed settings that probably will never make it to the guide, being the guide is used by the masses and what's used here is made for specific needs.
This also means some Custom Formats needs manual updating or you can use one of the 3rd party automation tools.
Why choose this quality profile
Why choose this quality profile? - [Click to show/hide]
- You want 2160p with DV + HDR10 but don't care about HD audio (TrueHD, DTS-HD, DTS-X).
- You want maximum compatibility between all devices and still a HQ releases.
- You run 2 instances of Radarr and want both version or you want to use this as your main.
- You want to have minimum till none transcoding for low powered devices or remote streaming.
- You're using your smart tv app as media player device.
- Optimized for PLEX, Emby, Jellyfin, and other streaming platforms.
- Encoded lossless audio track to Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 with Dolby Digital 5.1 fallback.
- Dolby Vision with HDR10 fallback.
Tested Devices and Results
We've tested this SQP on several devices and added the result in a spreadsheet
If you want to add any missing devices and players to the results please do so in our dedicated SQP-1 (2160p) Discord.
You will need to provide the following info.
- Your used TV and the max resolution supported by the TV.
- Your used media player device (ATV, Shield, Smart TV App, etc).
- Tautulli screenshot when playing a
BHDStudio 2160pwithDV HDR10. - Info what your TV is reporting DV or HDR10.

Workflow Logic
Workflow Logic - [Click to show/hide]
Depending what's released first and available the following Workflow Logic will be used:
- When a (U)HD WEBDL is released it will download the (U)HD WEB-DL. (streaming services)
- When a (U)HD BHDStudio is released it will download the (U)HD BHDStudio releases.
- Where the UHD will upgrade the HD.
Possible Variables
When no (U)HD BHDStudio or (U)HD WEBDL exist (or limited sources) it will grab the following:
- Get other HD Bluray Encodes (less or not streaming optimized).
- Prefer HQ Encodes (Bluray-720/1080).
- When the IMAX-E is released it will upgrade to the IMAX-E.
- When there is no BHDStudio release or WEBDL it will get a HD Bluray Encodes (less or not streaming optimized).
- Max compatibility, prefer BHDStudio.
- Prefer Streaming Services Audio Formats (Atmos) if no BHDStudio is available.
BHDStudio
BHDStudio does HQ 1080p/2160p Encodes with the following features
- Streaming optimized (Optimized for PLEX, emby, Jellyfin, and other streaming platforms)
- [1080p] AC3 Audio (Downmixed Lossless audio track to Dolby Digital 5.1 for optimal compatibility)
- [2160p] Encoded lossless audio track to Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 with Dolby Digital 5.1 fallback.
- [2160p] Dolby Vision with HDR10 fallback.
- Small sizes
- Good quality
Biggest drawback if you don't have access to the top tier indexers you won't have access to all BHDStudio releases, and in that case you might need to choose a few of the optional variables.
Important Notice

Merge Qualities
First we're going to merge a couple of qualities.
If you don't know how to merge qualities take a look at the following Guide:
Merge the following Qualities together
- Bluray-720p
- Bluray-1080p
- WEBDL-1080p
- WEBRip-1080p
- WEBDL-720p
- WEBRip-720p
and name it what ever you want I used: Bluray|WEB-1080p
and merge the following 2160p ones in a new group
- Bluray-2160p
- WEBDL-2160p
- WEBRip-2160p
and name it what ever you want I used: Bluray|WEB-2160p
Select the following qualities
- The merged quality profile:
Bluray|WEB-1080pandBluray|WEB-2160p
Make sure you put the merged Bluray|WEB-2160p above the merged Bluray|WEB-1080p
Move selected quality to top
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.
- Qualities higher in the list are more preferred even if not checked.
- Qualities within the same group are equal.
- Only checked qualities are wanted.
This is why it's recommended to move the selected quality to the top of the list.
Quality Profile Settings
- Enable:
Upgrades Allowed - Upgrade Until Quality:

IMAX Enhanced
IMAX Enhanced: Get More Picture Instead of Black Bars.
IMAX Enhanced exclusive expanded aspect ratio is 1:90:1, which offers up to 26% more picture for select sequences, meaning more of the action is visible on screen.
If you don't prefer IMAX Enhanced then don't add it or use a score of 0

Breakdown and Why
- BR-DISK : This is a custom format to help Radarr recognize & ignore BR-DISK (ISO's and Blu-ray folder structure) in addition to the standard BR-DISK quality.
- LQ: A collection of known Low Quality groups that are often banned from the the top trackers because the lack of quality or other reasons.
-
x265 (HD): This blocks 720/1080p (HD) releases that are encoded in x265. - More info HERE.
Don't use this together with x265 (no HDR/DV), Only ever include one of them
-
3D: Is 3D still a thing for home use ?
- Upscaled: A custom format to prevent Radarr from grabbing upscaled releases.
Optional - [Click to show/hide]
I recommend to use the x265 (no HDR/DV) over the x265 (HD), Read the Why below and don't forget to read the warning, Only ever include one of them
I recommend to use the SDR,

| SDR | -10000 | 9c38ebb7384dada637be8899efa68e6f |
Breakdown and Why
- Bad Dual Groups: [Optional] These groups take the original release, then they add their own preferred language (ex. Portuguese) as the main audio track (AAC 2.0), What results after renaming and FFprobe that the media file will be recognized as Portuguese AAC audio. It's a common rule that you add the best audio as first. Also they often even rename the release name in to Portuguese.
- HDR10+ Boost: [Optional] (use this one only if you have a (Samsung) TV that supports HDR10+ and you don't have a Setup that supports DV or you prefer HDR10+)
- EVO (no WEBDL): This group is often banned for the low quality Blu-ray releases, but their WEB-DL are okay.
- No-RlsGroup: [Optional] Some indexers strip out the release group what could result in LQ groups getting a higher score. For example a lot of EVO releases end up stripping the group name, so they appear as "upgrades", and they end up getting a decent score if other things match.
- Obfuscated: [Optional] (use these only if you dislike renamed releases)
- Retags: [Optional] (use these only if you dislike retagged releases)
- Scene: [Optional] (use these only if you dislike scene releases)
-
x265 (no HDR/DV): This blocks 720/1080p (HD) releases that are encoded in x265. - More info HERE.
But it will allow x265 releases if they have HDR and/or DV
Being that some NF releases won't be released as 4k, but you want to have DV/HDR releases.
In your quality profile use the following score for this Custom Format:
-10000Don't use this together with x265 (HD), Only ever include one of them
-
SDR: This will help to prevent to grab UHD/4k releases without HDR Formats.

Breakdown and Why
- The reason why these Custom Formats have a score of
0is because they are mainly used for the naming scheme and other variables should decide for movies if a certain release if preferred. BCore,CRiTandMAare the only ones with a score because of their better source material, or higher bitrate and quality compared to other streaming services.

Merge Qualities
First we're going to merge a couple of qualities.
If you don't know how to merge qualities take a look at the following Guide:
Merge the following Qualities together (SQP-1 (2160p))
- Bluray-720p
- Bluray-1080p

- WEBDL-720p
- WEBRip-720p
and name it what ever you want I used: Bluray|WEB-1080p
1080p WEBDL with DD+ (+Atmos) will always trump a 1080p BHDStudio 
If you want to prevent this you could remove the Bluray-1080p from the above merged Bluray|WEB-1080p, And put Bluray-1080p above the merged Bluray|WEB-1080p.
But this should be only done if you DON'T make use of the variable Prefer HQ Encodes (Bluray-720/1080).
Otherwise the HQ Encodes (Bluray-720/1080) will also trump the 1080p WEBDL.
and merge the following 2160p ones in a new group
- WEBDL-2160p
- WEBRip-2160p
and name it what ever you want I used: WEB-2160p
Select the following qualities
Bluray-2160p.- The merged quality profile:

Make sure you put the merged WEB-2160p above the merged Bluray|WEB-1080p and the Bluray-2160p on the top of everything.

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.

IMAX Enhanced
IMAX Enhanced: Get More Picture Instead of Black Bars.
IMAX Enhanced exclusive expanded aspect ratio is 1:90:1, which offers up to 26% more picture for select sequences, meaning more of the action is visible on screen.
If you don't prefer IMAX Enhanced then don't add it or use a score of 0

I also suggest to change the Propers and Repacks settings in Radarr
Media Management => File Management to Do Not Prefer and use the Repack/Proper Custom Format.
This way you make sure the Custom Formats preferences will be used and not ignored.

Breakdown and Why
- BR-DISK : This is a custom format to help Radarr recognize & ignore BR-DISK (ISO's and Blu-ray folder structure) in addition to the standard BR-DISK quality.
- LQ: A collection of known Low Quality groups that are often banned from the the top trackers because the lack of quality or other reasons.
-
x265 (HD): This blocks 720/1080p (HD) releases that are encoded in x265. - More info HERE.
Don't use this together with x265 (no HDR/DV), Only ever include one of them
-
3D: Is 3D still a thing for home use ?
- Upscaled: A custom format to prevent Radarr from grabbing upscaled releases.
Optional - [Click to show/hide]
I recommend to use the x265 (no HDR/DV) over the x265 (HD), Read the Why below and don't forget to read the warning, Only ever include one of them
I recommend to use the SDR,
This will help to prevent to grab UHD/4k releases without HDR Formats

Breakdown and Why
- Bad Dual Groups: [Optional] These groups take the original release, then they add their own preferred language (ex. Portuguese) as the main audio track (AAC 2.0), What results after renaming and FFprobe that the media file will be recognized as Portuguese AAC audio. It's a common rule that you add the best audio as first. Also they often even rename the release name in to Portuguese.
- HDR10+ Boost: [Optional] (use this one only if you have a (Samsung) TV that supports HDR10+ and you don't have a Setup that supports DV or you prefer HDR10+)
- EVO (no WEBDL): This group is often banned for the low quality Blu-ray releases, but their WEB-DL are okay.
- No-RlsGroup: [Optional] Some indexers strip out the release group what could result in LQ groups getting a higher score. For example a lot of EVO releases end up stripping the group name, so they appear as "upgrades", and they end up getting a decent score if other things match.
- Obfuscated: [Optional] (use these only if you dislike renamed releases)
- Retags: [Optional] (use these only if you dislike retagged releases)
- Scene: [Optional] (use these only if you dislike scene releases)
-
x265 (no HDR/DV): This blocks 720/1080p (HD) releases that are encoded in x265. - More info HERE.
But it will allow x265 releases if they have HDR and/or DV
Being that some NF releases won't be released as 4k, but you want to have DV/HDR releases.
In your quality profile use the following score for this Custom Format:
-10000Don't use this together with x265 (HD), Only ever include one of them
-
SDR: This will help to prevent to grab UHD/4k releases without HDR Formats.

Breakdown and Why
- The reason why these Custom Formats have a score of
0is because they are mainly used for the naming scheme and other variables should decide for movies if a certain release if preferred. BCore,CRiTandMAare the only ones with a score because of their better source material, or higher bitrate and quality compared to other streaming services.

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.
