Description of issue: Existing Library of over 500 series, mostly 1080, some 720, and very few SD series…
My issue arises with how Sonarr determines the original source (HDTV, WEBDL, BluRay, etc). My entire library was already named for Plex, so all of that information is gone from the filenames. I also process all of my releases from the highest quality sources I can find (Personal BluRays, BluRay Remux, DVD’s/DVD ISO’s, or Web-DL for current seasons), and then I transcode them into High Quality H.265 files for space saving, and delete the sources. So my entire Library is H.265 HEVC, and the sources are varied. I would like Sonarr to upgrade the files that actually need upgrading (ie last seasons WEB-DL sources to BluRay Remux sources, or 720 sources to 1080 sources, or SD sources to HD sources), but not the entire library, as most of it is high quality already, it’s just that Sonarr is reading it incorrectly.
As I understand it, it reads the information from the filename, and as that’s all gone, it’s just tossing all 1080 as HDTV 1080, and all 720 as HDTV 720, which is “mostly” not true, 99% of it will be WEB-DL or higher quality. What’s even more bothering is that for things like “Star Trek : The Next Generation” Which is from a BluRay Remux in 1080p, it’s listing it as 720 because the Horizontal Resolution is not 1920, it’s 1440. It should be reading the Vertical resolution first, and if not matching because if 2.35:1 or something else, it should be looking at the horizontal and making the determination based on that. Why it reads the Horizontal first is kind of beyond me. (At least I think that’s how it’s determining, if not someone can feel free to correct me)
So, I guess my question is, given my specific use case. Is there an easy way without renaming my files and re-importing them, to accomplish what I want? Why is there no mechanism to edit the sources from which they came? I would just be able to select a bunch of episodes and say “These were BluRay Remux Source” and that would put a quash to it trying to get new sources for it all the time…
Any help here would be appreciated…
