Fixed

  • BBC subtitle name mismatch breaks Sonarr searches: shows where BBC iPlayer appends a subtitle to the brand name (e.g. "Talking Tom Heroes: Suddenly Super" vs TVDB's "Talking Tom Heroes") returned zero results. Added subtitle-prefix matching so these shows surface correctly.
  • "Unknown episode or series" red marker: release titles now use the Sonarr-provided name when the BBC title has a subtitle extension, so TVDB mapping succeeds.
  • Language shown as "Unknown": added language="en" newznab attribute to all RSS items.
  • Batch downloads overwhelm BBC CDN: default workers reduced from 10 to 4. Retryable failures now use exponential backoff (30s, 90s, 270s) instead of immediate retry. Truncated downloads are now retryable.
