Someone help me understand the sonarr to jellyfin workflow (sh.itjust.works)

So I've got jellyfin all set up, but I'm having some issues with files downloading from qbittorrent and Knowing exactly how and when they get moved over, either the sonar or jellyfin repository, whichever is the final destination. This is important because my torrenting drive is separate from my media drive. I have noticed some shows and files staying on my torrenting drive while others go over to the media drive. And I'm and to figure out where the issue might be that's causing this, I think I need a refresher on exactly how and when these files are supposed to be moved over. Since I can't find any sort of documentation inside the apps.

Can anybody explain this to me like super simply? I just took an edible and it's starting to kick in, but I still want to figure this out. Thanks y'all!

You didn't specify but this sounds like an issue where you are confusing sonarr and radarr where only one is configured "properly".

You're right, radarr is the one that handles moving stuff around isn't it? Tbh I've got massive add so I get super into these projects and the setup, but when it comes to maintaining, I've completely forgotten how everything works.

Would you happen to know how I can fix this through radarr? I wouldn't be totally opposed to completely redoing the entire workflow if that's what it takes

Sonarr is TV and radarr is movies.

Oh yeah no I'm taking about sonarr then

You would need to post your config.

First guess is read/write access. Either sonarr can't read the download directory, or it can't write to the media directory.
