Download HD version only if there is no SD version?

Hi,

Must start to say that I love the app, using it for new episodes almost every day.

I do, however, have a request.

I download everything trough a private tracker. Every now and then a episode gets released in HD only format, but I think that SD is enough for me, so I don't want to check the Download HD checkbox. I would rather tick a checkbox that says: "Download HD only if no SD within 4 hours".

This way I would not have to manually download the episode from some public tracker.

   This was actually implemented a while ago, but somehow we recently broke it, so now TVShows will only download the selected version. It will be fixed in the next beta, sorry for the inconvenience.

   You can read more about known bugs that we are fixing for the final 2.0 version in this article

   Hi Christina,

   I've seen that as a known bug, but will it be the other way around (like i described), that it takes the HD version only if SD is not available.

   And is it possible to change the 15 hour timeout, or will at least cache the HD url (if the SD doesn't come available) so it can use it whenever the SD timeout occurs. Because within 15 hours the HD version will definitely be removed from my feed.

   Hi again Erik,

   We'll try to allow to fix the time intervals as an advanced option in TVShows 3.0, but there is no ETA for this version (probably next year).

   Cheers!
