Rank Indexers by user preference

It would be great to be able to set preferences for indexers, as some are

Better than others
Allow more API hits and/or downloads

I know this has been requested before, but its the only feature I miss from Sickbeard. At the very least this could be implemented for manual search?

enhancement priority:low

Its a reoccurring feature request to add indexer prioritization, which we have n…ot implemented since the idea is pretty broken (what if indexer A has a better quality, but it wasn't searched). Two possible solutions that came to me are: - Disable searching for an indexer (advanced option) - option to disable indexer from any searching, would only be used for RSS Sync - that would come with its own limitations, but might be worth it. This would save API calls. - Prioritize downloads from indexers - Allow users to choose which indexer would be used to download a release when two indexers have the desired same quality - this would save downloads, but not API calls. In addition to, disabling searching we could disable the RSS sync portion, then they could be used for searching only.

It definitely wouldn’t be constrained to a specific portion of Sonarr, but with manual search you can choose the release to download.
