Syncs two Radarr servers through web API.
Many Plex servers choke if you try to transcode 4K files. To address this a common approach is to keep a 4k and a 1080/720 version in seperate libraries.
Radarr does not support saving files to different folder roots for different quality profiles. To save 4K files to a seperate library in plex you must run two Radarr servers. This script looks for movies with a quality setting of 4k on one server and creates the movies on a second server.

Edit the Config.txt file and enter your servers URLs and API keys for each server.
Example Config.txt:
[Radarr] url = https://example.com:443 key = FCKGW-RHQQ2-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8 [Radarr4k] url = http://127.0.0.1:8080 key = FCKGW-RHQQ2-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8

Edit 4K profile on the server that will download 1080/720p files. You want the quality profile to download the highest non-4k quality your Plex server can stream with choking.
Recomended to run using cron every 15 minutes or an interval of your preference.
