I am using transmission but I am open to any of them I can get to work correctly. So with how you have Deluge set up, Sonarr takes your files from the downloads folder and moves them a different media folder that Plex, Jellyfin, etc. can view?
Actually, the files don’t get moved by default. The are hardlinked. That means the files are accessible from both the original downloads location (for seeding) and in the location you made Sonarr/Radarr save them too, but only take space on the disk once.
I have a setup with transmission working, I can link you my config, but it’s in Nix.
I basically made Sonarr, Radarr, etc. all part of a group called
arr, and made all the folders with media have permissions that allow the group to read and write to them, and it works so far. I think.I'm not sure you even need to go that far. I'll have to look up exactly how I have it configured because it's been a bit, but sonarr and radarr are both configured to copy from the torrent folder into a separate media directory where they and Jellyfin, as part of the "media" group, have (almost) full permissions to manage the files as they like. Then I go in and occasionally prune the torrents folder once every few weeks if storage becomes an issue.
