You have to give sonarr access to your top level media folder. Then you set sonarr up to hardlink the downloaded files to your media folder.
E.g. if you have
home/media/tvshowsandhome/media/movies, give sonarr access tohome/media. Your download client should probably have a folder likehome/media/downloadsin your sonarr app map the downloads folder to a sonarr folder in the downloaded client settings. Then set all imports to hardlink, instead of copy.Your Plex/Jellyfin server should point to home/media for your library where the hardlinking occurs.
I half follow. I have given radarr access to the top level folder (/data, not /data/media) so it should see everything. qbittorrent is linked to /data/torrents for my downloads. Where in radarr might I map the folders so it's hard linking instead of copying?
I ran into these issues with sonarr. I believe my fix was how the volumes were labelled. My understanding is they communicated the directory but if the other sonarr doesn’t know where to look for it, it won’t be able to find it
Torrent client - data/downloads:/var/data/downloads
Sonarr - data: var/data
This was when the torrent client is passing the location to sonarr is says thesimpsons.mp3 is located in data/download/the Simpson.mp3 and sonarr can then locate it
