Movie renaming guidance needed.

Hello, been reading through and I guess it's just alluding me the correct answer and need a little guidance.

I tend to manually add movie NZBs rather then use Radarr, currently SAB creates a folder for each nzb and on obfuscated items it creates a proper folder name but the file is still the scrambled text. I manually rename the video from the folder name which I like as it has the title, year, resolution, audio, and the release group.

Now I'm setting up a new NAS for the first time and I want to start having all my movies placed in the NAS in a central folder with the correct naming automatically.

From what I've read I need to:
- Enable categories for "movies*" and point it to the folder on the NAS.
- Enable Movie sorting with "job name as file name"

Am I missing anything? Thanks for any input.

Sounds like a plan yes.
You run SABnzbd on the NAS directly right? Both Synology and QNAP NAS'ses have that option.
Although Radarr/Sonarr should be fine with scrambled filenames, if you didn't use Usenet Blackhole, but really SABnzbd as provider in Radarr/Sonarr.

Thanks for the reply.

Currently no but that will be changing as I set more up on the NAS.
I Use Sonarr but haven't done Radarr as I like browsing the movies first and add them manually.
