One TV Series... huntarr just downloads it repeatedly over and over.

I only have this problem with one TV series.
I download the episodes I need as normal via Sonarr. Quality criteria are met, all is good.
But then a few days later huntarr decides to find them and download them again.

Then a few days later.... again... the SAME files downloading, exactly the same release/quality/everything.

I went into sonarr and saw against the series edit the huntarr missing label was there, not sure why ?
I've removed it, and stopped sonarr tracking that series (its complete now), so hopefully that will stop it.

Running 8.2.10

Check the cutoff unmet list in Sonarr, Huntarr uses that to decide what to kick off searches on. If Sonarr is listed that media as cutoff unmet then the problem is on the Sonarr side. Huntarr only search for media Sonarr puts on the wanted or cutoff unmet lists. You probably have downloaded a media that is under your quality specs so Sonarr lists it as cutoff unmet.

Its not in there now, but I'm guessing it got removed when I unticked sonarr to monitor it.
It was strange because the quality criteria was set to HD 1080, and the downloaded file was marked as WEB DL 1080.

But why would it download the same release over and over, if it was cutoff unmet ? Because that would then never clear.

I can't answer that, Sonarr determines the actual media to select, Huntarr only uses the Sonarr API to send a request that Sonarr search for that media. I can't wrap my head around why it would redownload media it already downloaded, seems like Sonarr would know not to download it again.
