Ahoi! Lately my Sonarr has been downloading .exe files from Lime and EZTV a lot. Someone deliberately pushes them just befor an episode airs and Sonarr happily grabs them. They don’t exexute, but still mess up my auto downloads.
Is there a way to prevent Sonarr from downloading them all together? Or at the very least re-download a proper release after noticing the exe file?
I also have private trackers as backup, but prefer public where I can contribute more by seeding to 1:100+ ratios.
Ah okay, currently it downloads the exe, recognises it as failed but does not automatically pick another release. I’ve blocked the file extension in qbit now and also added them in the Sonarr profiles as someone else recommended. Fingers crossed, I’ll know in a few days if it worked.
It should pick another release as long as you have the series/movie monitored. Yeah, please report back if it does.
