Any plans to add support for .webm video files?

We have converted a lot of our media to .webm to save some space and allow native html5 playback.

Are there any plans to add the .webm format as one that sonarr views as a valid file?

We have just switched from SickRage to Sonarr and if we can have that added or if there is a config file we can update to include that then it will work great for us!

Thanks!

I would also be interested in .webm being added as a video file format.

Currently we just set our files that we have converted to be unmonitored so that sonarr doesn’t think they are missing and re download.

Not sure how hard it is to add but would be an awesome addition to the program.

We can get this added, you’ll just need to make sure the quality is part of the filename so Sonarr know the proper quality.

Awesome! So as long as we have the name of the episode.SDTV.webm we should be good once the change has been made?

We can do that :slight_smile:

Thank you for the quick reply!!

I wish I knew how to work on github projects

I was wondering if adding the line

{ “.webm”, Quality.SDTV },

under Sonarr-develop\src\NzbDrone.Core\MediaFiles\MediaFileExtensions.cs

would accomplish .webm being a valid file and adding them all as SDTV without needing to rename the files.

I am fine adding the quality as part of the name but if it is not as easy as this.

It would work, but we’ll likely be setting .webm to unknown for the default quality as its not a commonly released extension.

Unknown will work for me :slight_smile:
