# How to setup Language Custom Formats
|
|
|
|
Here we will explain how to set up your preferred language Custom Format, with a few examples.
|
|
|
|
!!! warning "Using language Custom Formats is not compatible with setting a preferred language in a quality profile in Radarr. You must use one or the other.<br>If you want to make use of the Custom Formats set the preferred language to `Any`.<br><br>Sonarr doesn't have a preferred language in the quality profile, so this can be ignored if you're setting this up with Sonarr"

|

### Language: Original Only
|
|
|
|
<sub><sub>Language: Not Original</sub>

|
|
|
|
For this, we're going to make use of so-called reverse scoring.

|
|
|
Add the following JSON to your Radarr/Sonarr with a score in your profile of `-10000`.
|
|
|
|
??? example "JSON - [Click to show/hide]"
|

## Language Special Cases
|
|
|
|
Here we will add special cases that often are related to specific languages.
|
|
example: German Dual Language and/or Multi-language releases
|
|
|
|
!!! info "In general, Dual/Multi in a release title stands for original language (*movies/show original language*) + foreign language(s). Which audio track is used for the first track isn't always known based solely on the naming."
|
|
|
|
### Language: German + Original
|
|
|
|
This Custom Format can be used in two ways:
|
|
|
|
- If you **DON'T WANT** your media file to have a German audio track included, add this Custom Format with a score of `-10000`.
|
|
- If you **PREFER** your media file to have a German audio track included, add this Custom Format with a positive score.
|
|
|
|
<sub><sub>Language: German Dual Language</sub>
|
|
|
|
??? example "JSON - [Click to show/hide]"
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
[[% filter indent(width=4) %]][[% include 'json/guide-only/language-german-and-original.json' %]][[% endfilter %]]

## FAQ & INFO
|
|
|
|
### What's reverse scoring
|
|
|
|
??? question "What's reverse scoring? - [Click to show/hide]"
|
|
|
|
With reverse scoring you add a Custom Format with a score of `-10000` and your preferred condition you negate.
|
|
|
|
So in the case of the following Custom Format `Language: Original Only`, it will match all `Not Original` releases and give it a score of `-10000`.
|
|
|
|
### Prefer language X over language Y
|
|
|
|
??? question "Prefer language X over language Y - [Click to show/hide]"
|
|
|
|
If you want to use Prefer language X over language Y,
|
|
|
|
you add for example: `Language: Prefer Language X` with a score of `10`, and add `Language: Prefer Language Y` with score of `9`.
|
|
|
|
Which scores you should use depends on how important the language is compared to other Custom Formats you're using.
