Terminology
Completed Download Folder: This is the folder where your download client places completed downloads (best if it only contains movies)
Completed Movies Download Folder: Completed folder that only contains movies
Drone Factory: This needs to be the same as the Completed Download Folder (you should never use a folder that contains sorted and renamed movies)
Sorted Movies Folder: Final folder that contains your sorted and renamed movies (in their respective folders)
SABnzbd
- Disable movie sorting (Config -> Sorting -> Movie Sorting)
- Create a category for movies
- Configure Radarr to use the movie category; ensuring the path back to your DroneFactory folder is accurate and reachable (if across a network)
Radarr
- The Movie category for your download client (if applicable)
- The Drone Factory folder to be the same as your download client's Completed Download Folder/Completed Movie Download Folder (if you're using a category with SABnzbd this needs to be the Completed Movie Download Folder see SABnzbd's category config page for the path)
The Import Process
Radarr does a number of checks to verify that the download is acceptable for importing, including:
- Sample file check (run time is longer than 90 seconds)
- Upgrade for existing movie file (if any)
- Not being unpack by the download client (UNPACK in SABnzbd)
- Enough free space exists at the destination
Once a file has passed all those checks it is imported, if there is an existing file it is deleted, otherwise the movie file is moved and renamed (according to your naming rules). Once the file has been moved it removes the source folder as long as it is less than 70MB in size). If no files are imported nothing is deleted.

Naming Schemes
A good allround naming scheme, that works for Radarr/Sonarr (on bulk import), Plex and most of the stuff build on guessit. Also added is a naming scheme for Sonarr. If other people have come up with a better solution, please add them.
