Double Magnet Links (SD + HD)
I'm currently reworking my Transmission settings based off the tip on here about using groups, but upon turning on magnet links within TVShows it is grabbing both the SD and HD versions of shows where both are available. I stick with SD as the files are more or less guaranteed to go straight to an Apple TV without any conversion, is there a setting I'm missing now that I've switched over to magnet links that would prevent this from happening?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. And thank you so damn much for getting this project started again, easily the most convenient way of enjoying television in this day and age!

Hi Justin,
If you had missed some episodes due to TPB broken links issue and you just activated magnets, the double downloads are "normal", because TVShows has a timeout (18 hours by default) after which if it can't download the preferred version for an episode, it downloads anything available in the feed.
This shouldn't happen from now on, unless something else prevents TVShows from downloading an episode within that 18 hours.
Just for your information, it seems TPB torrent links have been fixed, so you may want to go back to torrents instead of magnets if you want them sorted out. But I wouldn't rely too much on that, there are a lot of changes happening at TPB and the only thing guaranteeing TVShows to work are magnets.
