Recently finished setting up all the ARR services and I already had a lot of movies placed in nice folders for collections. Upon import into radarr it does not like this and fails to see most of them. I said fine and went into some of my collection folders to read the movies in there and then it complains about "Multiple root folders are missing for movie collections:" . So not only would I have to add root folders for each collection but then I have to go back through and rename each one of those to be what radarr wants them to be? Is there any way to automate this I looked through there wiki and didn't see anything about collection making. Or do most people not put movies in actuall collection folders such as movies/Star Wars/Star Wars Episode One file

Thank you

Yeah, that won't work. You can customize a little on how Servarr apps store media, but the biggest rule is that the paths for movies must always be consistent. Get your name format set up in Media Management, then be sure to put a checkmark on the Rename Movies box before you import. Doing that will let you make sure Radarr renames everything to be more legible to you.

I recommend setting up Radar using the TRaSH guides. https://trash-guides.info/
