Examples

Trailarr automatically adds 2 Profiles when you first install it:

  • Movie Trailers
  • Series Trailers

These profiles are created with the default settings and filters, and can be edited or deleted as needed. You can also create your own profiles from scratch or duplicate these profiles to create new ones.

Let's go over these to understand how they work and also explain the Filters.

Example 1: Movie Trailers Profile

The Movie Trailers profile is used to download trailers for movies. It comes with all the default settings as defined in the Settings section, and the following filters:

ID Filter By Condition Filter Value
1 Is Movie Equals true
2 Trailer Exists Equals false

Ignore the ID column, it is just for reference.

Filter 1

This filter checks if the media item is a movie. If the media item is a movie, the filter will match and the profile will be applied.

Filter 2

This filter checks if a trailer already exists for the media item. If a trailer does not exist, the filter will match and the profile will be applied.

Result

With these filters, the Movie Trailers profile will only apply to movies that do not already have a trailer downloaded. This means that when the Download Missing Trailers task runs, it will only download trailers for movies that do not have a trailer already available in Trailarr.

Example 2: Series Trailers Profile

The Series Trailers profile is used to download trailers for TV series. It comes with all the default settings as defined in the Settings section, and the following filters:

ID Filter By Condition Filter Value
1 Is Movie Equals false
2 Trailer Exists Equals false

Ignore the ID column, it is just for reference.

One Setting that is different from the Movie Trailers profile is that the Series Trailers profile has Folder Enabled set to true. So that Series trailers are saved in a Trailers folder inside the Series folder.

Filter 1

This filter checks if the media item is a series. If the media item is a series, the filter will match and the profile will be applied.

Filter 2

This filter checks if a trailer already exists for the media item. If a trailer does not exist, the filter will match and the profile will be applied.

Result

With these filters, the Series Trailers profile will only apply to TV series that do not already have a trailer downloaded. This means that when the Download Missing Trailers task runs, it will only download trailers for TV series that do not have a trailer already available in Trailarr.

Example 3: Spanish Movie Trailers Profile

  • Create a profile by clicking on the Add New button in the Profiles page.
  • Name the profile Spanish Movie Trailers.

  • Set the below Filters:

    ID Filter By Condition Filter Value
    1 Is Movie Equals true
    2 Trailer Exists Equals false
    3 Language Equals Spanish

  • Click Create to create the profile.

  • Change the following Settings:

    • Set Priority to 1 which is higher than the Movie Trailers profile, so that this profile is used first for matching movies.
    • Set Include Words in Title to Español.
    • Set Search Query to {title} {year} {is_movie} Tráiler en español.
    • Set Always Search to true.

Make sure to save the Include Words in Title and Search Query settings by clicking the ✔ (tick) icon next to the settings.

NOT a foolproof solution

This profile is not a foolproof solution to download only Spanish trailers, as it relies on:

  • Language field in Radarr/Sonarr to be set correctly. If the language is not set to Spanish, this profile will not match.
  • The Include Words in Title setting to match the title of the trailer. If the trailer does not have the word Español in its title, it will not be downloaded.
  • The Search Query setting to return Spanish trailers. If search results does not contain any Spanish trailers, OR if there are no Spanish trailers available, this profile will not download any trailers.
