# How to setup Quality Profiles (German)

*aka How to setup Custom Formats to get German Audio if available*<br><br>

|
|
There isn't a *best* way to set up Custom Formats to get German (or German+English dual) audio. It depends on your setup (hardware devices) and personal preferences.
|
|
|
|
Some prefer high-quality audio (HD Audio), and others prefer high-quality video. Many prefer both.
|
|
|
|
In this Guide, we try to give a recommendation that suits most users.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Basics
|
|
|
|
It is quite important that you follow and understand what is expected by TRaSH's guide:
|
|
|
|
- Adding Custom Formats, as explained in [How to import Custom Formats](/Sonarr/sonarr-import-custom-formats/){:target="\_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}.
|
|
- Setting up a quality Profile to make use of the Custom Formats, as explained in [How to setup Quality Profiles | Basics section](/Sonarr/sonarr-setup-quality-profiles/#basics){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}.
|
|
|
|
!!! warning "Please read those two sections before continuing the guide, as they contain important information. The rest of this guide will assume you did."
|
|
|
|
!!! tip
|
|
TRaSH created a [flowchart](/Sonarr/sonarr-setup-quality-profiles/#which-quality-profile-should-you-choose){:target="\_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} to make your decision easier. Remember that this chart does not include any of the following Custom Formats, and you will still need to read this guide to get German-only/German Dual Language("German DL") releases.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Using this Guide
|
|
|
|
There are two ways of using this Guide, with and without TRaSH original Guide's international/English-based group tiers.
|
|
(which can be found here: [Collection of Custom Formats](/Sonarr/sonarr-collection-of-custom-formats/){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}).
|
|
|
|
In this Guide, we focus on combining both languages and thus include the Custom Formats from TRaSH's original Guide.
|
|
|
|
These Custom Formats are recommended if you prefer German Dual-Language releases but also want to download the original and/or English audio if no German Dual-Language is available (yet). This ensures the original English release will be of the best quality possible.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Sonarr specific settings
|
|
|
|
There are a couple of changes that are needed for German Custom Formats to work properly:
|
|
|
|
??? abstract "Disable Propers and Repacks - [Click to show/hide]"
|
|
Change the Propers and Repacks setting in `Media Management` => `File Management` to `Do Not Prefer` and use the [Repack/Proper](/Sonarr/Sonarr-collection-of-custom-formats/#repackproper) Custom Formats.
|
|
|
|
This way, you can ensure that Custom Formats preferences are used and not ignored.
|
|
|
|
You can still prefer Propers and Repacks through the provided Custom Formats.
|
|
|
|
??? success "Screenshot example - [Click to show/hide]"
|
|
|
|
|
|
??? abstract "Merge Qualities - [Click to show/hide]"
|
|
|
|
To allow upgrades based on language without release qualities interfering, we need to [merge all desired qualities](/Sonarr/Tips/Merge-quality/) into one group.
|
|
|
|
You will find a recommendation on which qualities should be included/merged for the different profiles in the individual profiles sections.
|
|
|
|
{! include-markdown "../../includes/starr/move-quality-to-top.md" !}
|
|
|
|
!!! tip "Tip"
|
|
You don't need to include some of these resolutions, such as 2160p or 720p, if you are not interested in them.
|
|
|
|
??? abstract "Adapt the Standard Episode Format and Series Folder Format - [Click to show/hide]"
|
|
Please have a look here: [Recommended naming scheme](/Sonarr/Sonarr-recommended-naming-scheme/){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}.
|
|
|
|
??? abstract "Set the Maximum Custom Format Score - [Click to show/hide]"
|
|
To allow upgradeability to the best possible quality, we set the `Upgrade Until Custom Format Score` to `25k`, which is more than the highest reachable score.
|
|
|
|
!!! tip "Tip"
|
|
If you want to stop upgrades at a specific score, feel free to adapt this setting based on your needs.

## Dealing with German Umlauts and German titles
|
|
|
|
Two facts can lead to Sonarr being unable to match a German movie release.
|
|
|
|
- Indexers typically do not allow the use of German Umlauts in release names.
|
|
- Most TV shows have titles that are different in German from those in English.
|
|
|
|
To help with this, there is a handy service called [Umlautadaptarr](https://github.com/PCJones/UmlautAdaptarr){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"}. This service acts as a middle layer between Sonarr and the Indexer to ensure that Umlauts and German titles are mapped correctly.
|
|
|
|
Sonarr also addresses this issue in their own [Wiki](https://wiki.servarr.com/sonarr/faq#why-cant-sonarr-import-episode-files-for-series-x-why-cant-sonarr-find-releases-for-series-x){:target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"} and provides a Google Sheet to enter title translations which are then added to Sonarr by the Devs.

## Score logic

## Quality profiles
|
|
|
|
### German audio
|
|
|
|
Depending on what's released first and available, the following Workflow Logic will be used:
|
|
|
|
- When an `English` version is released, it will download the release in the best available quality based on the Custom Formats used.
|
|
- When a `German` or `German DL` version is released, it will upgrade to that version.
|
|
- The downloaded media will be upgraded to any of the added Custom Formats until the defined Score defined in the Quality Profile under `Upgrade Until Custom Format Score` is reached.
|
|
|
|
!!! tip "Download German audio ^^only^^"
|
|
|
|
Set the `Minimum Custom Format Score` in your Quality Profile to `10k`
|
|
Note: Most German releases come in dual languages, so you might still see an English audio track in addition to the German one.
|
|
|
|
!!! warning "Releases where German is the original language"
|
|
|
|
Due to technical limitations, releases in which German is the movie's original language will be identified as `German DL` even though they might not contain another language.
|
|
The only (cosmetic) impact of this is that the scores of those releases will be slightly higher than expected.

### Releases you should avoid
|
|
|
|
This is a must-have for every Quality Profile you use. All these Custom Formats make sure you don't get Low Quality Releases.
