Custom Format "Size" Condition - Per Episode or Entire Series?

Help & Support
1

Sonarr version (exact version): 4.0.16.2944
OS: Windows 11 Pro
Debug logs: N/A
Description of issue:

Have been running an Arr Suite for a few years now and am doing my semi-annual checkup/cleanup.

Trying to maximize my disk space / efficiency, and have a question about Custom Formats. In Radarr, the “Size” Condition is very useful. I set it so that nothing can be over 10GB. I know I know bitrate and whatever but my TV is 1080p and I can’t tell a difference on my phone. I did this cause I noticed that despite being at whatever Radarr considers to be “WEB1080P” many movies were still >50GB.

The question though is how does this work in Sonarr? Cause obviously a show is made up of many files. Is the Maximum Size field based on the entire series (Thus needing to be hundreds of gigs hypothetically) or is it per-episode, and can be set to like 2 gigs?

Any input appreciated, thank you!

CF size is absolute, as is “Maximum Size” (Settings: Indexers), if you want per-episode maximums you want the Quality Settings (also in Radarr). In Sonarr v5 those settings will move to the profile instead.
