Possible to change the default quality of imported files?

Sonarr version (exact version): 2.0.0.5163
Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): 5.12.0.226
OS: Docker Image linuxserver/sonarr
Description of issue:

If Sonarr imports a file that was downloaded externally it tries to find the quality based on the file name. But if the file name doesn’t contain a quality it seems like it assumes HDTV. Is it possible to change that to default to WEB-DL?

If unknown Soanrr falls back to the file extension where there are some defaults, in the next release Sonarr will also check the resolution to see if it can find a better match, but the lowest source will always be used (SDTV/HDTV). There isn’t an option to assume a different source and there are no plans to add one.

Is it possible to change the quality of an file via the API?

Anything done in the UI can can done via the API.

You cna see how the UI is doing it with dev tools,though I updated the WIKI page below with a PUT example.
