Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
If I want to blacklist a release then have to add it to queue, then hop to queue and blacklist it, then hop back to the movie and start over. Very inconvenient.

Since the reason of blacklisting is not related to group but the actual release only, and because of garbage naming, custom format is useless for this.

Describe the solution you'd like
Ability to blacklist release(s) without the necessity of send into queue.

Additional context

AB#697

Why not make it even more flexible; add a freetext/regex-field available under each movie, where you can add blocklist-entries for that particular movie. As a recent example, a lot of false-positive "Formula1.*"-releases has been downloaded for the F1 movie. Being able to do a "^Formula1.*" regex blocklist entry for that movie in particular, would be very useful.

No plans for this. You can already create filters for interactive searches.

That doesn't really help with the specific problem I mentioned. Example strings that Radarr have attempted to download in the last couple of days (all of which is wrong, and has nothing to do with the actual F1 movie);

Formula1.2025.Austrian.Grand.Prix.Practice.One…
Formula1 2025 Round11 Austria FP1 F1TV…
Formula1.2025.Round12.Great.Britain.Race…
Formula1.2025.Round14.Hungary.FP1.SKY.F1TV…
Formula1.2025.Round14.Hungary.FP2.F1TV…

It's not really feasible to blocklist these one-by-one from the interactive search, as they are all unique, and new ones pop up every day.

This might be a different underlying problem that causes this, but would still be useful to do easy regex blocklist entries for scenarios like this.

@joachimtingvold For support and inquiries, please use our Discord channel. GitHub is designated solely for bug reports and feature requests. It seems that this issue may fall under a support request, so we kindly ask you to visit our Discord for assistance. Thank you.

Radarr grabs them as your indexer incorrectly reports it as matching the F1 movie. Import would likely be blocked for AKA.

Visit Discord for support and do not add completely unrelated issues / comments.

The ask of this FR is to be able to blocklist from interactive search result. Any regex filtering thus is irrelevant as interactive searches can already be filtered.

If interactive searches can be used to add blocklist entries, why is this issue still open?

As for "my" feature request, I created #11188 to cover that.
