## What is minimum availability?
Minimum availability is a setting per movie to prevent Radarr from downloading fakes. It tells Radarr when to start considering movies as "available" and thus start snatching them from indexers, if they pop up on your RSS feeds. There are a multitude of options available to set it to (can be edited when editing a movie or in movie editor for mass changing):
* **Announced**: Radarr shall consider movies available as soon as they are added to Radarr. This setting is *recommended* if you have good private trackers (or really good public ones, e.g. rabg.to) that do not have fakes.
* **InCinemas**: Radarr shall consider movies available as soon as movies they hit cinemas. This option is not really *recommended*.
* **Physical / Web**: Radarr shall consider movies available as soon as the Blu-ray is released. This option is *recommended* if your indexers contain fakes often.
* **PreDB**: Originally this setting would monitor predb.me for scene releases of that movie. However, predb.me blocks Radarr now and this setting is now the exact same as **Physical / Web** and thus *not recommended*.
## Additional recommendations
If you use **Physical / Web** as minimum availability, it is advisable to set a minimum availability delay under Settings -> Indexers. The days specified in here (can be negative too) are added to the Physical release dates of movies to check whether a movie is considered available. It is advisable to set it to something between -14 and -28 days, since Blu-rays often leak and thus are available much earlier than the date they actually appear in stores.
### An example to illustrate the concept:
Movie Prometheus 2 has Minimum Availability of **Physical / Web**. Physical Release date of Prometheus would be 28th of July 2017. However, a minimum availability delay of -21 days is set. Thus Radarr will start snatching Prometheus from the RSS feeds starting 7th of July 2017.
