Sonarr changes sub-second timestamp of media to a zero value after rescan

Sonarr version (exact version): 3.0.6.1196
Mono version (if Sonarr is not running on Windows): 5.20.1.34
OS: LSIO docker container
Debug logs: https://www.dropbox.com/s/1r44usmy1adrmj1/logs.zip?dl=0
Description of issue:
This looks to be a bug as it never happened before. I have Sonarr set to change the timestamp of my media to “Local Air Date” on import/rescan. It works fine but it sets the sub-second timestamp of the files to .00000 which conflicts with snapRAID on my Debian host. I’m fine with the files initially being set to a zero sub-second timestamp but after the sub-second timestamp gets edited to a random value by snapRAID, Sonarr should detect it as the same timestamp and not touch it further. Again, this was a behavior that was not happening before. See this before and after rescan:

To further prove my point, I have Radarr set to change the filestamp as well but this issue never happens with it. Radarr knows not to change the timestamp when the sub-second timestamp is different.

Following up on this, devs?

Maybe a difference between mono and .net core, Sonarr doesn’t do anything specific there.

Never happened before though? So this is probably mono’s doing?

Bumping this issue! I just setup SNAPraid and Sonarr for the first time last week. Everytime I TOUCH and Sync, I get file errors because Sonarr is changing the file date back to a round number.

I didn’t know that Radarr did not have this issue. Thanks OP for that information. I’ll give it a try and confirm.

Let me know what your results are.

Yep. Radarr is fine. Sonarr continues to fight with snapRAID. I’ve turned off the time change setting in Sonarr for now, but I would like to be able to turn it back on.

That’s exactly what I did until this issue is solved. Not sure which developer needs to fix it though.
