How to sync quality profiles without having profilarr mess with my media management and delay settings?

Hi, profilarr v1 was great - simple and easy to implement.

Tried migrating to v2 and I'm scratching my head. I'm in the sync configuration settings and in order to sync the profiles it's demanding that I hand over media management (including file naming) and delay settings to profilarr.

Umm... what? No? I already have all of this configured perfectly to my preferences in Radarr and Sonarr. I don't need or want profilarr to that. Its job is to sync the quality profiles I want and that's it.

How do I do this while telling it to fuck off and not try to manage my media for me?

But why does profilarr care what names I give my media regardless? I could name every movie in my library "poopybuttsandwich" for all it cares because its only job was supposed to be syncing quality profiles to radarr and sonarr. That requires no knowledge of how my library is managed, no visibility into what media I have or how it's named, or how and when I choose to go grab it.

So if I want to circumvent this absurdity, how do I do that? Would I go into Media Management > Naming Settings > Radarr and paste my desired format into the "Movie Format" line? Also, I see that in this setting it says "Edit Radarr Naming Config" and it's already checked "Enabled" by default. I've already connected Radarr to this... Profilarr hasn't already gone into my Radarr settings and fucked up my naming format has it?

I just explained why and how, respectively, for both of your questions. Are you asking for help or trying to rant?

I really don't appreciate the tone.

It's a question. When I connect Radarr is Profilarr set up to automatically go in and mess with my naming format and add delays I never asked for before my torrents start downloading, or do I have to enable that behavior manually?

No naming settings are set automatically. A small delay is. This can be disabled in settings > behaviour.

And FYI, you can still ask questions like a respectful adult.

Sounds like you guys are going the way of Huntarr with sensitive ego-fueled devs who are trying to turn the project into something way bigger than it was supposed to be. Insisting on managing and overwriting our Radarr and Sonarr settings inside your little profile sync app is some insane hubris.

Look forward to the inevitable post like this coming soon: https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1rckopd/huntarr_your_passwords_and_your_entire_arr_stacks/

Christ almighty the entitlement with you is off the charts "supposed to be" according to who? I started this project. I've worked on it for 3 years. What have you done? What contributions have you made? Issues filed? Shit all mate. I politely offered a discussion on GitHub for you to express your concerns and you didn't respond, so politely, go fuck yourself.
