How to setup Custom Formats (Anime)

!!! attention You must be running Sonarr V4 to be able to use this setup

!!! note This guide is created and maintained by FonduemangVI and rg9400

It's recommended to run two Sonarr instances. One for Anime and one for normal tv shows, or you can make use of Quality Profiles and score different CFs as required

Media Management

For the Recommended naming scheme please go HERE{:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}


Quality Settings

For quality settings please refer to Sonarr Quality Definitions - Anime{:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}


Quality Profile

We need to create a new profile called Remux-1080p - Anime due to the way anime can be named we will need to merge a few qualities together see here{:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} for an example. We need to add Bluray-1080p Remux and Bluray-1080p into a group together, and HDTV-1080p into the same group as WEBDL-1080p and WEBRip-1080p so that scoring will work correctly.

Go to Settings => Profiles

??? check "example - [CLICK TO EXPAND]" !cf-settings-profiles

!cfa-mergedqualities

We then need to select and organise qualities as below

!cfa-qualityorder

Make sure Upgrades Allowed is ticked then set the Upgrade Until section to Bluray-1080p and the Upgrade Until Custom Format Score to 10000

After this has been done your profile should look like below

!cfa-qualityprofile


Custom Formats

!!! note We're going to make use of the below custom formats. See How to import Custom Formats{:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} for how to import the custom formats

{! include-markdown "../../includes/cf/sonarr-anime.md" !}

The scoring that has been set is the recommended scoring however some of the CFs are optional depending on what you prefer. Anime Dual Audio, Uncensored and 10bit can be given scores if you want to prefer content with these attributes

Once the custom formats have been imported you can set the scores as above. To do this go to Settings => Profiles and select the Remux-1080p - Anime profile that was setup before

??? check "example - [CLICK TO EXPAND]" !cf-settings-profiles

In the profile enter the scores as per the above table in this section.

!cfa-scoring

After you are done it should look like the image above
