What quality do you go for with Radarr and Sonarr? (discuss.tchncs.de)

As the title says I’m curious what quality people choose. I chose Ultra-HD and am a little stunned when I look at the file sizes for some movies at 100GB.

Another question is how can I change the quality and will Radarr remove the existing download and then get a smaller one?

If it helps I have a GPU capable of hardware transcoding.

Generally 1080p and around 2-4GB per hour is my go-to. Less bitrate starts to show very obvious problems with darker areas so I avoid it.
