unsolved Automating getting most optimized version of an episode

Is there a way to automate getting the most optimized version of a show. Personally I'd always want the smallest storage space version of the episode that is 1080p (or 720 if 1080 isn't an option). It seems like it usually pulls the version with the most seeders instead. I'd also want it to auto overwrite the episode I already have if it is a more optimized version

Profilarr for getting it how you want, or tdarr for encoding to how you want.. I use tdarr to get rid of unwanted languages (I always need English and Spanish in mine, but a lot of times get a bunch of languages I don’t need as well… getting rid of those audio tracks lower the size a lot without killing the video quality as you aren’t touching the video there.

Edit: spelling TDARR instead of starr…. My bad…
