I am sure I am just missing something simple... I have prowlarr -> sonarr/radarr -> qbittorrent -> jellyfin I created three directories. /jelly/video /sonarr /radarr. I configured sonarr and radar to use their respective directories. And I configured qbittorrent to use /jelly/video as the default download dir.

But what seems to be happening is that if I download a movie, it ends up in both /radarr and /jelly/video. And then if I delete it from /jelly/video it doesn't seed for others.

What am I missing here?

The way I organized my setup was using a file structure like this:

  • Videos
    • Movies
    • TV

My media player and torrent client have access to the videos directory, and Radarr and Sonarr have access to their respective directories. The *arrs add the files to the torrent client with the destination being their respective directories, and upon completion it triggers a media player library re-index. This way you can seed and stream concurrently.

So do you set the torrent client default download dir to videos? And the system is smart enough not to make a copy there because there is already one visible to the client?
