Quality parsed correctly if Sonarr Imported but not if Sonarr scans after manual import

Sonarr version 2.0.0.5344
Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19041:

If I use Manual Import and let Sonarr detect the media file and then move it to the Plex server the Quality is set correctly to HDTV-720p.
If I manually move the file to the Plex server and then have Sonarr Update Series Info and Scan Disk it then sets the quality for the same file to SDTV.
I do not use Quality of any other info in my naming convention other than: Series.Name.S01E01.Episode.Name.mp4
Not a big issue and doesn’t affect the way Sonarr and Plex work for me … just a curiousity I thought I would pass on.

TT

This is why. In v3 Sonarr will use the resolution from the file to make a better decision about the quality, but if the quality is lacking in the file name then you’ll get a TV source as it’s the lowest source available.

We highly recommend that quality be in the file name.
