As the title says I’m curious what quality people choose. I chose Ultra-HD and am a little stunned when I look at the file sizes for some movies at 100GB.

Another question is how can I change the quality and will Radarr remove the existing download and then get a smaller one?

If it helps I have a GPU capable of hardware transcoding.

    I mean you’re going to get that with 100-150min 4K media files of decent quality. There is no way to reduce that file size without lowering the bit rate to a noticeable degree at some point that makes going 4K in the first place pointless.

    Even pretty compressed 4K in an 8bit space is like 1-2gb/min. Unless you’re willing to go 1080p you’re always going to be looking at 50-100gb files

    Edit: lmao I’m so sorry I just realized this is a month old
