Sickbeard vs sonarr 20177/29/2023 Radarr is working well and is very actively being developed. That's easy CP was working pretty poorly. ![]() Simple things also like going to the details of each show without having to go back to the show list, like you have to in sonarr. I do find it better for actually managing shows due to the amount of detail displayed without having popups and tabs which are used in sonarr. But I actually prefer this GUI possibly due to starting way back on sickbeard. I find it has no less info then Medusa but requires more clicking around to get it. Nice looking, simple not too much info in shown at once (pro or con depending). Medusa allows a bit of customizing what you see inside a show. Though both get the job done.īoth of course have different GUI's. Setup of post processing on sonarr is extremely simple. Sonarr shows download progress from the client to sonarr. Sonarr does have better integration with sabnzbd/nzbget (no experience with nzbget). Sickrage/gear/Medusa use nzbtomedia script. SickRage can't do this.īoth do failed download handling, renaming and moving. Looks like SickGear should be able to do this also. No experience as to how each do this in practice.īoth Medusa and Sonarr allow you to search manually and see all releases that match the show. In Medusa you can set the order in which trackers/indexers are searched. I know in Sonarr you can prefer one method over the other. If one was to put 5.1/DD in "Must include" then if no files are found with 5.1/DD then any 2.0 release is blocked and you might end up with getting episodes.īoth support Torrent/newsgroups. Since its preferred then if it can't find a file with 5.1/DD it will download a release with 2.0. If Medusa finds a release with 5.1/DD audio in the name it will prefer that over one that does not. For example you can prefer 5.1/DD etc for audio. Medusa also have "Preferred" and "Undesired". Medusa has "Must include" and "Must not include" in file/release name, same as sonarr. Soanrr also has tags but I'm not well versed in how they really work. This can be used to block subs or certain release groups or force subs/groups, can be used for many other things also. Sonarr has "Must include" and "Must not include" in file/release name. you can set bluray 720p to have a min size of 2GB and max size of 4GB. Sonarr allows you to set the size limits (minimums and maximums) of each quality. So from HDTV 720p to WEBDL 720p then to bluray 720p. It will however download and overwrite the file if it finds bluray 720p. If a WEBDL 720p is released it won't download it as its just allowed like HDTV 720p is. Medusa will download HDTV 720p first (if its the first it sees available). So if you set the following as allowed, HDTV 720p, WEBDL 720p and bluray 720p as preferred. But with the way Medusa works you can't work your way up the quality ladder. It will try to always get the preferred and won't stop trying till it does. Medusa allows you to set allowed and preferred. The major difference is episode quality management. ![]() From what I can tell most of the features that are on one and missing from the other are already added to the list of features that will be added in the future to their respective projects. ![]() Hopefully both will improve on the cons, at that point there might be little difference. But a little while ago installed Sonarr and have it running also. Then SickRage, now Medusa which is the natural progression.
