Hey all. With my instance of sabnzbd, I only have two things hooked into it - Radarr and Sonarr. Lately I've been noticing downloads in the queue (or downloads in my Completed folder) that I (and neither application) requested.
For example, something called 'Magic Max' randomly appeared in my queue. Relevant snippet of logs, this is the first mention of this download with a few lines before and after:
Pastebin url: CwvrJVX5
I've checked Radarr and Sonarr and nothing has requested this. I let it download, and sure enough, it's just sitting in Completed. Nothing tried to move it, which tells me it definitely wasn't Radarr or Sonarr.
What's going on here?

Re: Downloads in queue that nothing requested
I can't post links because I'm new and for some reason it's detecting my logs as a link. So here's what to put after pastepin . com :

Re: Downloads in queue that nothing requested
I had a similar scenario very recently, an unrequested title kept getting downloaded over an over and did not appear as a monitored title in Radarr/Sonarr.
As recommended here, I inspected Radrarr's logs and noticed the unwanted title was found as a match under an unrelated title.
In my case "Herself (2021)" was listed as a search match under the unrelated title "Eternals (2021)". I unmonitored "Eternals (2021)" and the unwanted files stopped downloading. I later deleted "Eternals (2021) completely from radarr.
Interestingly, for yucks, I added Eternal back to Radarr and searched afresh: "Herself.2021" is found (incorrectly). Huh, deleting "Eternals" once more.
Check your Radarr/Sonarr search results for "All Rise" for the Magic Max title. (the 2 titles in my example were adjacent in the Radarr log file).

Re: Downloads in queue that nothing requested
It's added by Radarr or Sonarr.
In SAB, set your SAB logging to +Debug ... you'll send see who adds what.
