I have jellyfin, qbittorrent, radarr, sonarr, prowlarr. I end up with copies of things I download in two places, media folder, and then in a radarr or sonarr subfolder. Radarr and sonarr are configured to have their own dirs. Jellyfin has media libraries for movies and shows pointing to those same subdirs. But qbittorrent has a default save dir of the media dir.

If I delete something in jellyfin, it gets deleted only from the subfolder, not the media folder.

I thought that radarr and sonarr would tell qbittorrent where to download to… and it would be their subdirs. So what is making the copy in media? And is there some reason I should have these extra copies?
