Description: There appears to be a discrepancy in the hierarchy of quality profiles, particularly between "1080p optimal" and "1080p transparent" within the Dictionarry project's configuration. Users might be confused about why "1080p optimal" is ranked higher in quality score than "1080p transparent," despite the latter seemingly offering superior quality. The underlying reason involves immutability scores, where a remux (classified as 'optimal') is less prone to upgrades compared to an encode, thereby reducing the frequency of replacements. This differentiation is crucial for users aiming for the best quality without the hassle of multiple upgrades. However, the current explanation within the project's documentation may not clearly convey this rationale, potentially leading to misinterpretations about the profiles' intended uses and benefits.
Environment: Operating System: Not Applicable Radarr/Sonarr Version: Not Specified Profilarr Version: Not Applicable
Profile Used: Profile Name: 1080p Optimal, 1080p Transparent
Expected Behavior: The documentation should clearly articulate the rationale behind the rankings of different quality profiles, emphasizing the role of immutability scores in determining a profile's suitability for users aiming to minimize upgrades.
Actual Behavior: The current documentation may lead to confusion among users regarding the differences and advantages of "1080p optimal" versus "1080p transparent" profiles, particularly in relation to their immutability scores and the resulting impact on media upgrade frequency.
Additional Context: A revision of the wording or an additional explanation in the project's documentation could help clarify the distinctions between profiles, particularly for users new to media automation who are deciding between quality options. This clarification is essential for ensuring users can make informed decisions that align with their preferences for quality, compatibility, and immutability.
