How to import Custom Formats
Here I will try to explain how you can import Custom Formats for Radarr v3.
!!! attention Keep in mind Custom Formats are made to fine tune your Quality Profile
**Quality Profile trumps Custom Formats**
How to import a JSON Custom Format
In this example i will use the BR-DISK{:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} Custom Format the one most people don't want to download anyway and if you do then you probably don't use Radarr, Plex being both don't support it.
Settings
=> Custom Formats
Then click on the to add a new Custom Format.
Followed by the Import
in the lower left.
In the empty Custom Format JSON
box (1) you just paste the JSON
what you got from the Custom Format Collection{:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} followed by the Import
button (2).
What you see in the red box is a example txt that you don't and can't remove!
After selecting the Import
button you will get a screen that has all the Custom Formats variables filled in correctly,
all you need to do now is click on the Save
button and you're done.
Start adding other Custom Formats wisely
!!! tip
Now Start adding other Custom Formats wisely, **Don't add all the available Custom Formats !!!**
Personally I would only add the Custom Formats that do what you actually prefer especially in the beginning, including the [Releases you should avoid](/Radarr/V3/Radarr-setup-custom-formats/#releases-you-should-avoid)
