As discussed here, I was wondering if there are plans to "build a filter in so only non-sample media files are added to the history list". Sonarr does not handle all the miscellaneous files correctly and interprets every file download by the NZB as a duplicate download of the intended video. I didn't have this issue when I used NZBGet but that program didn't max out my connection and Newsbin is much more efficient and user friendly. So far I've just implemented a NZB filter that bans all files less than 200 MB but I've yet to test it.

I'm also having an issue where the time left is always "6.04:38:37" for each download and it never changes.

What version are you using?

Is it safe then to only add the largest file to the history list?

You can do a "post unrar filter" right now which can delete all these other files, hopefully before it hits the history list.

Latest stable version. 6.72, build 4776. Also the latest stable version of Sonarr.

It is definitely the safest option to only add the largest file. I think that may be the easiest and cleanest approach.
