Sonarr not seeing completed downloads if SABNZDB history too long

Sonarr version (exact version): 2.0.0.4949
OS: Microsoft Server 2012

Description of issue: The issue only occurs when the backlog of unpacking files gets larger than about 50 items at which point sonarr will forever report that each file is at 100% progress. If I’m only downloading 10-20 items at a time everything works without issue so I’m thinking it has to do with how far back sonarr looks into the sabnzdb history but i cant find any setting or way to change that.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Sonarr looks at the last 30 items, which shouldn’t be a problem unless it takes longer to import and check downloads than it takes to get download more than 30 items. If that occurs Sonarr won’t show them as 100% downloaded though, they’d just disappear.

You can see why Sonarr isn’t import things by hovering over the status icon (on the left) in Activity: Queue.

That makes sense thanks!

The problem for me is my downloads are generally faster than my checking and unpacking because I have gigabit internet so anytime I have a full show queued up it will generally get past that 30 item limit.

Is there a file or a setting I can edit that will allow me to increase how many items Sonarr looks at? even if it does come with a bit of a performance decrease? I’ve been looking for how to do that but couldn’t find anything for it.

You could set DownloadClientHistoryLimit to something greater than 30 in the Config table in nzbdrone.db, no way to do it via the UI though.

I did that and it seems to have worked perfectly!

Thanks a ton for helping me with this!
