This brings us to the final, most subjective element of the query: the word "better." What does it mean to search "better"? On a technical level, "better" implies a search engine capable of filtering by bitrate and color depth, not just resolution. Many platforms market content as "4K" that is heavily compressed, resulting in artifacts and muted colors. A "better" search mechanism would allow the discerning viewer to distinguish between a 15Mbps stream and a 60Mbps remaster.

Searching across "all categories" ensures you don't miss out on how 4K enhances different genres: Action & Sci-Fi:

While "XXX" is still a common search term, official film ratings have evolved. The Motion Picture Association currently uses G, PG, PG-13, R, and NC-17 to categorize mainstream films. In the mainstream, "R-rated" movies are the most common high-maturity films found on platforms like IMDb , featuring mature themes and language without crossing into the "XXX" category. How Is 4K Different From UHD and 2160p?

Then, set your indexers to search "All Categories." The automation will constantly look for "better" upgrades to replace your existing 1080p or low-bitrate 4K files.
