St-sha's Profilarr HTB Customizations

This is my private fork of the Dictionarry-Hub Profilarr HTB Database with personal customizations for my media setup.

🎯 Customization Philosophy

Physical Media Priority: UHD Bluray and Remux formats are strongly preferred
Quality Over Size: Transparent encodes and lossless audio prioritized
IMAX Enhanced: Special scoring for IMAX Enhanced releases (optional profile variant)
Theatrical Preference: Special Edition penalty in theatrical variant (optional profile variant)
Streaming Service Optimization: Enhanced scoring for premium services (MA, ATVP, DSNP)

📁 Available Profiles

2160p Quality

Main 4K profile prioritizing physical media with transparent encode fallbacks.

Use when: You want the best 4K quality with UHD Bluray priority and high-quality encode alternatives.

2160p Balanced

Targets consistent 2160p WEB-DLs with lossy audio for smaller file sizes.

Use when: You prefer 4K content but want smaller files and don't mind lossy audio.

2160p Remux

Base remux profile with lossless audio and neutral Special Edition handling.

Use when: You want only untouched 4K sources and want to leave the Special Edition vs Theatrical choice to The HTB's discretion.

2160p Remux (Prefer Theatrical) - Optional Variant

Same as base remux but actively penalizes Special Editions and boosts IMAX Enhanced.

Use when: You specifically prefer theatrical releases over Director's Cuts, Extended Editions, etc.

2160p Remux Only - Optional Variant

Restricts downloads to only remux qualities (no encodes allowed).

Use when: Storage isn't a concern and you want guaranteed lossless sources only.

1080p Quality

Targets transparent x264 1080p encodes with physical media priority.

Use when: 4K isn't needed/wanted and you want the best 1080p quality available.

720p Quality

Targets transparent x264 720p encodes for smaller files or limited bandwidth.

Use when: You need smaller files or have bandwidth constraints but still want good quality.

🔄 Update Workflow

# Pull latest from upstream
git fetch upstream
git pull upstream stable

# Resolve any conflicts while preserving customizations
# (See inline comments in profile files for guidance)

# Push to personal repo
git push origin stable

🏷️ Customization Markers

Look for # CUSTOM: comments in profile files to identify intentional changes that should be preserved during updates.

Always preserve UHD Bluray prioritization (position + score boost)
Maintain minCustomFormatScore = 0 across profiles
Keep variant-specific customizations (Special Edition penalties, quality restrictions)
Verify MA scoring boost in quality profiles
