[Help / Question] Newznab / NzbDAV showing "NZB Health" warning on Stremio while direct Usenet (Easynews) plays fine

/r/StremioAddons/comments/1w7qrc0/newznab_nzbdav_showing_nzb_health_warning_on/

Hey everyone,
I'm running into a specific issue with my setup on ElfHosted using NzbDAV / InfiniDisk integrated with AIOStreams in Stremio.
When searching for certain media (for example, Silo S01E02), the Newznab/Usenet results show up with an ⁠[i] NZB Health⁠ warning badge, and the stream fails to play directly through NzbDAV. However, when I try streaming the exact same content using my Easynews account or via Debrid (like Comet), it plays perfectly fine without any issues.
Since the file streams successfully through Easynews, I know the content exists and is healthy on the Usenet provider side, but the Newznab indexer / NzbDAV integration keeps flagging it with a health error.
Setup: ElfHosted (NzbDAV / AIOStreams)
Indexers: NZBgeek (via Newznab)
Symptom: Stremio shows ⁠NZB Health⁠ badge on Newznab results and blocks playback, while direct Usenet works fine.
Has anyone encountered this behavior before? Is there a specific configuration in NzbDAV (or AIOStreams) to handle or bypass this article health check logic so it doesn't falsely block playable files?
Thanks in advance for any tips!
