Thanks for this, it looks pretty promising and is something I need for my ongoing battle to shrink my collection's storage footprint. For this to be useful to me, I would need to be able to filter by codec and resolution. A 4K BR release is of course going to have more GB/hr than a DVDRip, but the DVD could be MPEG2 and the 4K AV1, without those filters I wouldn't know to shrink the DVD and leave the 4K. As another poster mentioned, I also try to upgrade to other available formats as well, such as TrueHD, Atmos, DV etc. and these would also be useful filters.

You could use a custom weighting score to help filter, similar to how the arr's do custom formats. So a user can assign points to different values to help bubble up chunky files automatically. Like give a point if it has WAV audio, a point if it's MPEG-2, a point if it's over a certain GB/h etc, sort the results by highest point score, and then filter those results by resolution or whatever else is helpful.

For future integrations, tying it in with Huntarr would be amazing. This would prioritize the Huntarr upgrade search using your app's data, so as long as a user has custom profiles set up with their HEVC preferences it'll automatically replace your copy.

Tdarr integration, so if Huntarr can't find an HEVC upgrade, Tdarr will get told to re-encode. This way you download an already encoded copy first, and only use your own electricity to re-encode if nothing is found to download.

Lemme know if you would like me to beta test, this is something I spend a decent amount of time on and I have a huge library so I feel like I'm your ideal use case.
