Video Clip to demonstrate the issue
It’s been happening for a long time but I thought I might ask for a fix since I couldn’t find anything similar online and neither did any of the updates resolve my issue.
The problem is I can’t seem to set the series monitoring for any TV show. I want to set it to monitor “future episodes”, but when I click the save button, it keeps on loading/buffering forever and after 2 mins or so, reverts back to saying “save” with my changes not being saved at all.
I have tried it multiple times, in multiple shows but the problem remains the same. Is there anything I’m missing?
Things I’ve tried:
- Restarted my Sonarr Container
- Restarted my NAS (Synology, if that matters)
- Updated Sonarr
- Checked the logs (after changing it to debug mode), couldn’t find anything relevant, though I didn’t check ALL the logs so if something like this might be in a different type of log file, please let me know
No matter what I do, it still says “No change” in the monitoring option instead of “Future episodes”.
Some help please? Thank you.
You need to look at the seasons and episodes. This is not a setting that is persisted, it applies to the series the moment you set it to apply your chosen value.
Think of it this way, if it was a setting that was constantly evaluated then if you chose Future when it’s re-evaluated at some point in the future it would unmonitor any aired episodes, whether there was a file or not.
This did not happen before which is why I am stumped
Okay, let’s take this one at a time where I’ll add a TV show from scratch and maybe you can help me see where am I going wrong.
I am trying to add WWE Raw and ONLY monitor the future episodes, no past ones.
However, even though I set it to monitor “future episodes”, it seems like it’s still monitoring ALL the episodes in the show as you can see here.
I had to turn off “Download monitored episodes” just to ensure it doesn’t start downloading all thousands of Raw eps
I am adding the screenshots of relevant pages so I can understand the best way to configure this show:
Can you please help me? What am I missing? How can I ensure that Sonarr doesn’t download any of the past episodes?
If you checked immediately after adding then all episodes will be monitored, it won’t be until after Sonarr updates the series, performs it’s scan of existing files (whether there are files there or not), then it will update.
I just tested with this series and shortly after adding it updated as expected.
If you’re still having issues, post the trace logs of you adding the series or updating the episodes that are monitored.
You can also unmonitor seasons / episodes manually.
