Sonarr not download automatically episodes it can find and are suitable

  • I added a show, it downloaded 4 episodes out of 9.
  • Not downloaded episodes status is “Episode missing from disk”.
  • When I do an interactive search on any of the missing episode I can find plenty of candidates matching what I want (no rejection).
  • When I click on a missing episode, go to the search tab, then click quick search, it finds the episode and download it.

First question/answer probably.

From the FAQ:

If you’ve already added the show, but now you want to search for it, you have a few choices. You can go to the show’s page and use the search button, which will do a search and then automatically pick episode(s).

What does pick mean? Download?

If I click “search monitored” on the show page (missing episodes are monitored, the bookmark icon on the left of them is filled) it tells “Searching indexers for *****. 3 active indexers” then “Series search completed. 0 reports downloaded.”. But if I search them individually, it works. Also, when I added the show a few episodes downloaded automatically, but other did not. Is there a way to search and download all episodes it can find? If it is not “search monitored” what is it?
