In attempting to download American Dad, I've discovered the list of known shows with episode numbering issues because of TVDb's unflexible naming conventions. I found the option to "override and add to download queue" on the Interactive Search, but it didn't seem to be correcting the info on import. I finally found on the Servarr FAQ this bit about the override feature, "Note that this overruled information is not carried over to the import logic and manual imports may be required," indicating my override selections are ignored intentionally. So what's the point of this feature? Unless I'm missing something here, it seems completely useless to even have this option available if the override selections are then just completely ignored through the rest of the download and import process. Am I using this wrong?

I just added a series to my Sonarr list and a few of the episodes started downloading successfully (I did choose the option to search for monitored episodes when I added it) but several of them just say "Episode missing from disk" with the ⚠️ symbol next to them. When I click the "Search Monitored" button, nothing changes and nothing is added.

What's going on here? If I click on "Interactive Search", there are results that are returned and they don't have the red exclamation point and, as far as I can tell, they fit my criteria.

Why would some of these download and not others and why aren't the episodes with results downloading when I click "Search Monitored"? Am I misunderstanding the way this is supposed to work? I've never had this happen before but this never became an issue until I had to recreate the container.
