If download is running, the status is still "Processing Request". Change the status to "Downloading", so the user can regognize that the movie is available soon. Sonarr and Radarr show the downloading status on the activity queue, so the status should be available by the API.

Jamie Rees AdminUser doesn't just care about the downloading of it. It would be a temporary state that usually wouldn't last long also.

EricI agree with this request. Users have no way to know if their request has started downloading and may be available soon, or whether no source has been found and it could be days.
I have several users and all have asked how they know if their request was found or not. This is an important use case when people are looking for something to watch immediately. -

MichaelThink of it as "Searching" for "this has been requested but we haven't found a copy yet" and "Processing" as in it is actually in progress. Anything that doesn't go from "Searching" to "Processing" within a configurable time period might be something worth having an admin notified to decided if they want to manually search for the item.

NicolasExact same as Eric.
It is a temporary state only if the request is found. If it is not found, the user has no way to know if they are waiting for something or not. -

BrendenThis is not needed this is why you do not auto approve movies and shows i do not mark it as approved until i find the source from where the video comes from then once its downloaded its then marked available.
