How to Merge Quality

The current logic on how downloads are compared is Quality Trumps All ‼️

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 qualities 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.
