What steps will reproduce the problem? Be specific, and provide as much detail as possible.

This problem has appeared on Dickinson's Real Deal.s01e877.Tue Dec 03 and earlier episodes of this show, although some episodes have been fine. The programme gets downloaded but isn't added to the TV application. It also lacks any tags whatsoever. I don't know if this happens with any other ITV programmes.

What version of GiA are you using? On what version of OS X?

GiA 1.17 and Catalina 10.15.1 (19B88)

Are you using a web proxy? DNS proxy? VPN? VPS?

What program are you attempting to download (full title, series and episode)? Provide only ONE program as an example.

I just reproduced this, and It looks like Atomic Parsley tagging is failing. I'm wondering if that single quote in the show name is causing problems generating the command line arguments.

This is still happening and it's VERY annoying, since this is a fabulous application in every other way. At this instant I'm downloading 'Dickinson's Real Deal - Mon Nov 16' and it's stuck again at 90%. Clearly it's trying to do something but has got itself stranded. Every episode of Dickinson's Real Deal gives problems: sticking or getting dumped in Home Videos without any tagging. I'll try restarting the application now...

OK. Having quit the program it then doesn’t list the problem episode again. The show is in Downloads, is complete, is fully tagged, but hasn't been added to the TV application. The JPG thumbnail is also complete. However, the subtitle file is still in its .vtt form, although with its entire contents. I hope this helps...

I think I know what's going on, at least with the failure to tag and add the file to TV. If you stop an ITV download and restart it, youtube-dl doesn't print out the path to the file. GiA needs that, though, so it knows what file name to send to Atomic Parsley. I'll have to look for a more reliable way of getting that info.

Further to this. If it gets stuck at 90% (ish) and I go to quit the application, but in the dialogue choose NOT to quit, the download is completed and the programme is added to TV...
