What would you like to see implemented next?

It would be really cool if the type of download could be detected and used for the re-search
Since you have access to the queue would it be possible to see if the download being removed was for one episode or multiple and make a decision based on that as to if a season or episode search would be required to replace the download with the same type?
While I'm here, great work. This is the only improvement I could even think of because you've done a brilliant job wit this project, love it!

Thank you! 😊

Great idea, but this is already done under the hood. If the search type is set to Episode and the item is a season pack, a search for the season will be triggered instead of each individual episode. Is that what you're describing?

If the search type is set to `Episode` and the item is a season pack, a search for the season will be triggered instead of each individual episode. Is that what you're describing?

Thats why I want to test it again, I recall there being other season packs that should have been grabbed instead of just grabbing episodes. So hopefully I can work it out, or maybe the search for seasons just failed for some other reason.

Oh okay, I'll have to try that again soon. Last time it removed a stalled season pack it searched and downloaded each episode separately.

Are you sure it actually searched for each episode? Even if you trigger a search for an entire season, Sonarr can still download each episode individually.
