How to configure profiles to wait for preferred version if available?

Help & Support
#1

Sonarr version (3.0.6.1342):
Mono version (Running on Win10):
Win 10 Home:

Sonarr selected a TV episode to download today at 8am, this worked fine and met the quality profile settings. About an hour later a version of that episode was released with ‘265’ in the name, which is a preferred keyword in my ‘Release Profiles’.

It hasnt upgraded to this version - is there a way to do that?
(I’ve just noticed another episode did upgrade to my more preferred option about 30 mins after the first one - so not sure why this other one has decided not to)

But my main question is how would I go about setting up Sonarr to wait (say 5 hours) to check if a 265 version turns up, otherwise grab the 264 one - to avoid me downloading the same episode twice?

At the moment, I’m thinking just set 265 to be ‘required’ in the release profiles but obviously thats not ideal.

Delay Profiles; however there are caveats, see the wiki

Thanks, I’ll check that out.

Why are you using the GitHub wiki that is no longer maintained and for the EOL, unsupported v2 version? (Also says so on the GitHub wiki main page in giant font)

Where is there a link to that wiki still?

I searched for this:
https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=sonarr+delay+profiles+wiki
First link for me was a reddit post, I clicked the link, which is here:

Then clicked the link provided, there is no mention on that page (https://github.com/Sonarr/Sonarr/wiki/Delay-Profiles) of it being outdated

Added to the page and removed the no longer accurate Reddit post

Tho for that search the official wiki and not some random old Reddit post was the higher result

Thanks, I guess Google put it to first for me due to my use of Reddit?
Anyway, if you are clearing up the Sonarr reddit, there seem to be a few references lying about like this one:
