Hello,
I’m noticing the same episodes are being downloaded that have already downloaded. I have propers turned off. Ideas?
Also, I’d attach a log but I can’t find how.
Thanks
BA

Are they the same quality? Use pastebin for logs. A screenshot of the profile would be helpful as well.
Sorry for the delay and thanks for the response!
Example of what’s happening - http://i.imgur.com/DGhUoMr.png
It does look like it’s upgrading the quality.
Here is a screenshot of the settings - http://i.imgur.com/KALRWis.png
Never used pastebin. That was easy! http://pastebin.com/DXy0ZHmn
Thanks!
@markus101 can confirm this but looking at the first screenshot that looks like a classic example of you have your cutoff set to high or not to what you want as you can see it downloaded SDTV then it found a 720p copy then it found a 1080p Web-DL
your cutoff must be set to 1080p Web-DL or higher because it is thinking that this is the preferred quality you want so it grabs whatever it can find when that doesn’t fit or a higher quality is released it moves onto the next one up and so on till it reaches the max then stops
so for example if you just want SDTV copies set the cutoff to that and it won’t grab the rest as it will take note that this is the highest you wanna go and that’s it or if you want the 720p then it may still download the SDTV if it comes out first and then the 720p but then stop there
if you can provide a screenshot of your profile settings on one or more of your profiles that would help here is my SDTV one for comparison

i hope this helps if you need me to explain better or provide some more info let me know
I think you are right. I just lowered my cutoff. Thanks for your help! http://i.imgur.com/qGXPft7.png
If this doesn’t work, I’ll message again, but I think we can call this case closed for now.
Thanks!

awesome glad it was something that simple
btw whilst your at i would would suggest re-arranging the profile types below as well in the order you want to get them to avoid any other issues it appears you want 720p as the cutoff so make sure that is on top by clicking and holding on those 3 grey lines and dragging up to put at top then uncheck any ones you don’t want just leave checked the ones you are willing to have if the 720p is unavailable because the ones that are check will be ones that are considered as alternatives if the cutoff cannot be met if you look at my profile setup again Click here to see My Profile Screenshot
you will see i only have 3 enabled for this reason
@protocol77 You want to downgrade all your episodes to SDTV? Tha ts backwards of most, higher up is more preferred, if a DVD release was grabbed for you and SDTV was later available, drone would “upgrade” it (upgrade in quotes because thats the opposite of what most people want.
@therealbarno as long as you want drone to grab the best possible release it can and continue upgrading to HDTV 720p then your profile is perfect, it will upgrade SDTV to HDTV 720p when its available (new releases), if you search for an older release that has BluRay releases then it will grab one of those. Some more info on how they work is here: https://github.com/NzbDrone/NzbDrone/wiki/Quality-Profiles
Nah i had just enabled the ones i would be happy with if the SDTV is unavailable so if the SDTV wasn’t out i could still get the WEB-DL 480p or DVD (if released) but i mostly stick with the SDTV releases as they are more commonly available
what i was trying to say to @therealbarno was uncheck any of those ones you don’t want to get at all so if the cutoff is set to SDTV as an alternative if that is not available he might not want some of the RAW-HD or 1080p rips as they are so different in terms of size and quality so just to uncheck them to be sure it won’t attempt to grab them
was a little hard to try and explain (i am tired been a long day) i have mine in the screenshot i provided in the rank i prefer them so SDTV if not then WEB-DL 480p if not then DVD and unchecked the rest which is what i was saying to do
