Thanks to this community popping up on my hot feed, I've spent my entire day setting up sonarr/radarr on my 423+ NAS within docker. I got most of it figured out on my own but I'm stumped on how sonarr/radarr takes the files from my torrent client downloads folder and moves them to my media folder for plex/jellyfin to view.

I've followed this guide for how my folder structure is setup: https://wiki.servarr.com/docker-guide

Could someone point me in the direction of what I need to do so that when a file is finished downloading it automatically moves to my media folder?

I am using transmission but I am open to any of them I can get to work correctly. So with how you have Deluge set up, Sonarr takes your files from the downloads folder and moves them a different media folder that Plex, Jellyfin, etc. can view?

Actually, the files don’t get moved by default. The are hardlinked. That means the files are accessible from both the original downloads location (for seeding) and in the location you made Sonarr/Radarr save them too, but only take space on the disk once.

Mine aren't hard linked then because radarr is copying them from my /data/torrents (qbittorrent download location) and putting them in my /data/media/movies folder. When I view the properties of the top level folder it is showing the space used as twice what the actual file is.

That should be a simple setting in both radarr and sonarr. They can hardlink or copy. I'm not sure what the default is nowadays but it was copy when I installed it.
