Import strategies1.x
Choose how Radarr and Sonarr import completed jobs. Set this under Settings → SABnzbd → Import Strategy.
Best when the media server needs real filesystem entries (classic Plex libraries).
- Set Rclone Mount Directory to the path where the WebDAV mount is visible inside the Arr containers (e.g.
/mnt/remote/nzbdav). It must be the same absolute path in every Arr container. - Run an rclone sidecar with
--linksso*.rclonelinkfiles become symlinks into/.ids. - Point Arr root folders at paths that see those symlinks.
A bounded rclone VFS cache can smooth seeking without storing full media forever.
Best when the media server can play .strm URLs.
- Set Completed Downloads Dir to a path shared with Arr (e.g.
/mnt/completed-downloads). - Set Base URL to an infinidysk URL the media server can reach (HTTPS recommended).
- Skip the rclone FUSE mount — no
/dev/fuserequired.
STRM files contain authenticated streaming URLs; keep Base URL and WebDAV credentials correct.
Jellyfin fills in duration and audio/subtitle languages for STRM items only after first playback — see Media servers.
Path consistency
Section titled “Path consistency”The completed path infinidysk reports must appear at the same absolute path inside the Radarr and Sonarr containers. Map volumes identically.
Switching strategies
Section titled “Switching strategies”Maintenance tools can convert STRM → symlinks or recreate STRM sidecars — see Maintenance. Back up first.
