sparklyballs Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 is it possible to run multiple instances of couchpotato? example is one for 720p movies and one for full blu-ray yes it is, but you need separate config folders and you MUST rename one of the docker containers changing the name field by hand in the template for adding the docker in the unraid webui.

aptalca Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Couchpotato has great support for both qualities and categories. You can create custom quality profiles by mixing and matching as well. My couchpotato clients (chrome extension for web and couch potato mobile on android) allow me to select both a category and a quality every time I add a movie to the wanted list. I don't understand why you would need two instances of cp running. Do you need two copies of each movie? Link to comment

Do you need two copies of each movie? i used to run two instances of CP to get screeners and save them out to another library, don't know if it's changed since i did that but talking to clintonhall he couldn't suggest another way to do what i wanted at the time without running two instances.

reggierat Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I'm running 2 instances of couch potato without any problems, one is for kids movies and the other is for the rest. The kids couch potato pushes movies into a different share which is then updated by a second instance of kodi-headless. Works flawlessly Link to comment
aptalca Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Ahh I didn't think about that scenario. I guess you're right that if you need to save movies to different paths, then you need to run 2 instances. Link to comment
aptalca Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Actually, I just realized that couchpotato can move finished downloads to different locations based on the category setting. Look under settings and renamer. It lists your categories and lets you select custom destinations Link to comment
