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?

So you are intentionally keeping two copies of things?

I am keeping 1 copy, with a hardlink to the other. It gets removed from qBittorrent once it has finished seeding

oh, hardlink. Linux I am guessing then? I am on windows for now. And it has been years since I tried to make a link in windows. I don't recall it going well back then. :) So what do you mean by finished seeding? Someone else implied they only seeded to some limit. What is the story there?

Yes, however Windows offers hardlinks too, you just can't span them across drives with either os
