Each [Quality](https://github.com/Radarr/Radarr/wiki/Built-In-Qualities) shown in the Profiles section can be selected or deselected for each quality profile. This allows you to create specific quality hierarchies, and you can choose a specific profile to use on a per-movie basis.

You can use this logic to create specific profiles for higher quality versions of movies you want the best quality versions of, or also use it to archive older movies that you don't really care much about the quality of.
**Proper Releases**
#### Proper Releases
A tag to consider that will always supersede "cutoff met" is when a PROPER release comes across through RSS and you have "Download Propers" activated in `Settings > Media Management > File Management`. This is a "hidden" setting (shown in yellow) so you must have "Hidden" settings shown to see it.

With this active, `PROPER` releases will always download a new copy because it is assumed that the release fixes an issue with the previous release of that movie. For example, `PROPER` releases usually come across when audio is found to be out of sync, or if there are visual artifacts, or other issues with the original release. If you notice that a title in your library downloaded more than one version of a movie you thought that the cutoff was met for already, it is likely because a `PROPER` release superseded that cutoff.
**Preferred Tags**
#### Preferred Tags
If you'd like to give a little more weight to a release without *requiring* it, this setting in each specific profile is for you. For example, you might *prefer* releases with `TrueHD` or `DTS-HD` to get the best audio, but it is okay to grab a release that doesn't have these audio tracks.
**Delay Profiles**
#### Delay Profiles
You can also set up Delay Profiles to wait to download preferred releases until after a certain time has elapsed, this will allow extra time for releases with your preferred tags or cutoffs to be released.

Delay profiles were originally created to prefer Torrents over Usenet, or visa versa, by setting a delay before starting a download for either torrents or usenet. However, it can also be used to wait for preferred tag releases and prevent multiple successive qualities from downloading when a cutoff is unmet. For instance, if a `Blu-ray 720p` release comes across RSS first, and a `Blu-ray 1080p` version comes across RSS 2 hours later, if you have a delay profile set for more than 2 hours, only the most preferred release (in this example, we are assuming `Blu-ray 1080p` is preferred by the associated Quality Profile) will be sent to your download client.

**Movie Naming**
#### Movie Naming
Perhaps you don't like the default movie file and folder naming format. This is where you can change that, except at the time this article was written, folder name changes aren't supported. The default movie file name is `{Movie Title} {(Release Year)}`, but personally I prefer `{Movie CleanTitle} {(Edition Tags)} {(Release Year)} {[Quality Title]}`. The [[Sorting and Renaming]] article has more useful details for this setting.
