Sonarr does not seem to follow Torrent delay

Sonarr version (exact version): Latest V2

Description of issue: Torrent delay of 600minutes is not respected

Sonarr does not appear to be respecting the Torrent delay set as here:

The release that I’m talking about is “Sword Art Online - Alicization - 17 [1080p]”.

It initially seems to respect the Torrent delay but later adds it anyway even though the exact same release exists on NZB. (I tried manually searching the episode in Sonarr withing the 600 minute delay period that I set and It finds it:

Any idea @markus101 ?

Did the NZB fail to download in your client? (Check the history)

If it failed and Failed Download Handling is enabled Sonarr would search for another release, find the torrent and grab that (delays only apply to RSS). If this is the case, set a Minimum Age for NZBs to allow the release to propagate before Sonarr sends it to your client (or do the same in your download client, assuming it supports that).

Failed download handling is enabled but the NZB did not fail to download, it was never added. I checked the logs of SABnzbd; nothing was added.

The same thing that I reported in the OP happened again today.

This is the release:

Here are excerpts from the logs:

Any help at all would be appreciated. Can’t seem to figure this out at all.

19-2-4 21:36:28.0|Debug|DownloadDecisionMaker|Processing release '[HorribleSubs] Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken - 18 [1080p].mkv' from 'HS-1080'

19-2-4 21:36:52.0|Debug|DownloadDecisionMaker|Processing release '[HorribleSubs] Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken 18 [1080p]' from 'HS'

Looks like those are from different indexers, so it didn’t grab the same release it originally rejected due to the age, given that my guess the HS indexer is reporting the wrong date/has the wrong timezone.

What does Sonarr show as the Age when grabbed for the grabbed history event?

You might be right. So removing the indexer should fix it?

Or at least disable RSS Sync for it, assuming your other indexers report the correct date/timezone you should be fine.
