I dont know what is causing but i tried tons of fixes, i mainly use public torrenting, and sonarr and radarr are doing it.
I added *.arj and arj to the quality profile avoid list without success, and prowlarr is as torrent (i’ve read sometimes it gets confused and uses nzbget)
It’s very specifically not forthcoming. The Sonarr devs actively refuse to implement it. They say that if you’re getting bad releases, you should simply use better trackers that don’t allow viruses. It’s pretty tone deaf, but every single “delay searching until an episode has officially released” request immediately gets rejected.
The “fix” is to set a file type blacklist in qBitTorrent, and run Cleanuperr to automatically delete “empty” (completely blocked by the filter) torrents in your list. It’s a workaround, at best. But it’s the best we have because the Sonarr devs think everyone has the time to babysit their private trackers.
