I am experiencing an issue when downloading a TV series where an episode download will loop infinitely. It will download to 100%, then start downloading the same file again.
I looked in the log files and see this section:

It shows the point that the download reaches 100%, silently fails with “No destination path for temporary file” and then reinitiates the same download. There are no errors displayed in the server nor client apps. There is ample space on my phone to store the file.
I selected two seasons to download. The first season took a very long time to download (because it was looping on files) but did eventually finish somehow. The second season could not get past episode 1.
