Remember rejected entries

Hello.

I’m trying to have Flexget remember once rejected entries and to not accept then again in subsequent tasks (and in future runs).

The feed for the first task (partial-feed) has a subset of the entries of the second task (full-feed). So some of the entries appear again in full-feed. For testing purpose, please have a look at the following config: (All executed with --test using version 3.1.67)

tasks:

  partial-feed:
    rss:
      url: https://nyaa.si/?page=rss&u=HorribleSubs
      all_entries: no
    quality: '1080p+'
    regexp:
      accept:
        - HorribleSubs

  full-feed:
    rss:
      url: https://nyaa.si/?page=rss&c=1_2&f=1
      all_entries: no
    regexp:
      accept:
        - HorribleSubs

The (abridged) result looks like this:

...
2000-00-00 00:00:00 VERBOSE  task          partial-feed    REJECTED: `[HorribleSubs] Titel [720p].mkv` by quality plugin because 720p does not match quality requirement [<Requirements(1080p+)>]
2000-00-00 00:00:00 VERBOSE  task          partial-feed    ACCEPTED: `[HorribleSubs] Titel [1080p].mkv` by regexp plugin because regexp 'HorribleSubs' matched field 'title'
...
2000-00-00 00:00:00 VERBOSE  task          full-feed       ACCEPTED: `[HorribleSubs] Titel [720p].mkv` by regexp plugin because regexp 'HorribleSubs' matched field 'title'
...

I would have expected that full-feed would reject the 720p-version again, at least that is how I understood remember_rejected should behave.

I can force my expected behavior with:

tasks:

  partial-feed:
    rss:
      url: https://nyaa.si/?page=rss&u=HorribleSubs
      all_entries: no
    quality: '1080p+'
    regexp:
      accept:
        - HorribleSubs
# --- diff start
    digest:
      list: digest_rejected
      state:
        - rejected

  mark-as-seen:
    from_digest:
      list: digest_rejected
    accept_all: yes
# --- diff end

  full-feed:
    rss:
      url: https://nyaa.si/?page=rss&c=1_2&f=1
      all_entries: no
    regexp:
      accept:
        - HorribleSubs

And the (abridged) result looks like this:

...
2000-00-00 00:00:00 VERBOSE  task          partial-feed    REJECTED: `[HorribleSubs] Titel [720p].mkv` by quality plugin because 720p does not match quality requirement [<Requirements(1080p+)>]
2000-00-00 00:00:00 VERBOSE  task          partial-feed    ACCEPTED: `[HorribleSubs] Titel [1080p].mkv` by regexp plugin because regexp 'HorribleSubs' matched field 'title'
...
2000-00-00 00:00:00 VERBOSE  task          mark-as-seen    ACCEPTED: `[HorribleSubs] Titel [720p].mkv` by accept_all plugin
...
2000-00-00 00:00:00 VERBOSE  task          full-feed       REJECTED: `[HorribleSubs] Titel [1080p].mkv` by seen plugin because entry with title `[HorribleSubs] Titel [1080p].mkv` is already marked seen in the task partial-feed at 2000-00-00 00:00:00
2000-00-00 00:00:00 VERBOSE  task          full-feed       REJECTED: `[HorribleSubs] Titel [720p].mkv` by seen plugin because entry with title `[HorribleSubs] Titel [720p].mkv` is already marked seen in the task mark-as-seen at 2000-00-00 00:00
...

In the above the task mark-as-seen “accepts” all rejected entries of partial-feed and that way they get marked as seen and not accepted again. I also tried to crate an entry_list containing the rejected items, but all I could archive where more lines with no better effect then what you can find in the second config. (My YAML/Jinja2 skill are just are not high enough yet…)

It works, but it doesn’t look right to me. Is there no better / more elegant way to solve this?
Is this the expected behavior of quality? Do I miss some plugin/setting that I have to use?

Thank you for your feedback.

Side note: I tried the series plugin, but it has a hard time with this type of entries, where the names are not very “conform”. So I mostly switched to the trusted regexp, which works for me. And yes I know there is the nyaa plugin, but for my purposes it is to limited (and I solve it by using pre-filted feeds).
