My Movies continually showing previously downloaded films

Howdy all. Perhaps this has been mentioned before but I couldn't find anything in search. I always filter by “not downloaded to my system” and usually this means I only see preorders in the "my movies" section.

However, recently I've seen a number of films appearing that I've already downloaded. Pacific Rim for instance; I already downloaded in 4K HDR but it appeared in "my movies". To get "rid of it" I had to download it in HD.

Rampage was one of the first I ever owned on K. Yet it appeared on the weekend and downloaded in 4K HDR, even though it says it is already downloaded in 4K HDR. The only difference seems to be the cover art.

Any ideas? I'd assumed it would happen if the audio mix changed or a directors/extended edition was released but I'm a little confused as to how to easily work that out.

I know I could live with it but it's a bit annoying as I want to make sure I have all my movies downloaded and seems a bit daft to download in 4K HDR and HD/SD. :confused:

Thanks!

I get this every now and then when filtering on “HD or Better”. I will have a couple of titles that show HD in the bottom right corner but have the yellow check mark in the bottom left. To check this I then filter in “UHD” and it comes up clean with only pre-orders showing unless the store version doesn’t match the downloaded version (at least that is my assumption).

I just checked now with “HD or Better” and Pacific Rim doesn’t show up even though I only have the HDR version downloaded.

I have four versions of rampage and two versions each of passengers and the shallows, all with different cover art.
 
Cheers both. Wonder what causes it beyond the obvious Director's cut v Standard Edition type scenarios. Not an issue at the mo as I've plenty of hard drive space but not something I fancy policing down the line.
