Confusion on quality

Sonarr Ver. 2.0.0.5252 on Windows 2012 R2 using Usenet

Really happy with this software…can’t believe I used to do this manually! Have a question about profiles and quality settings. I set up a profile called ‘Cartoons’ and it has (in order) WEBDL-720p, HDTV-720p, WEBDL-480p, WEBDL-1080p, HDTV-1080p with a cutoff at HDTV-720p. The rest of the quality settings are unchecked.

Assume that means it will only download those qualities checked. If Sonarr grabs a 480p (lower on the list) will it attempt to grab a 720p should it show up? I find a few of my shows have varied qualities…doesn’t matter that much but sometimes on the cartoons I’ll have a 97mb file and then a 500mb file! I also sometimes get files that are too small and the audio doesn’t work on iDevice(s).

Just looking to get a better understanding of how I should set this up to get some consistency. Thanks!

You can play around a bit with the minimum/maximum size sliders for the qualities, or use restrictions to e.g. only download from a particular release group for show xyz, or combine both…
