Overview

emptyRadarr is the movie counterpart to Sonarr. It monitors for new and existing movie releases, searches indexers via Prowlarr, downloads via NZBGet, and moves completed movies into the media library on UnRAID.

Notes / Gotchas

    Radarr root folder must be set to the path inside the container that maps to /mnt/Multimedia/Movies on the host. Hardlinking between /downloads and /media requires both paths to be on the same filesystem. The current setup has downloads on Ceph OSD and the final library on NFS — hardlinking is not possible across these. Radarr performs a copy+delete instead. This is slower but correct. Quality profiles are managed via Profilarr — avoid manual edits in Radarr UI.
