I just went to watch a movie and my server said it wasn't there, so I went and check the PC folders and all of my movies are gone. Not in any of the recycling bins, not anywhere, just gone. What would have caused this? How do I stop it from happening again? It's been working fine for months then this just happened.

Radarr has a setting which will delete files when a movie becomes unmonitored. By any chance did you recently unmonitor everything or make a change to whole directory like rescanning ?

I did unmonitor everything recently. For fuck sakes didn't know it did that. Just thought what's the point in monitoring the movies if they're all how I want them. Apparently I fucked myself.

Maybe you've seen the comments above but might not be the case.

Eek where is this setting? I see the setting to unmonitor when deleted but not the other way around.

[-] wccrawford@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

Like you, I don't see that setting, and only see the one you see. I don't think it exists. I think they just had it backwards.

It makes no sense to delete movie files when clicking unmonitor.

I think it's this one, but it looks to be disabled by default...

Edit: Actually no, I don't think that can be right because this setting is for Import Lists. Unless OP's entire library came from an Import List?

[-] AlexanderTheGreat@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

My library did not come from an import list. I too can not seem to find this setting. So it must not be the case?
