It’s behaving exactly as you’ve configured it:

In your Conversion Task Expert Setting you’ve enabled the option Do not overwrite files

Skip ReProcessing → True

So it checks for that and does exactly that:

INFORMATION> 2017-09-25T15:21:40 MCEBuddy.Engine.ConversionJob → Checking for destination file skip reprocessing
→ Custom Renaming Command → 1%showname%%showname% - %episodename% - %airyear%%airmonth%%airday%
WARNING> 2017-09-25T15:21:40 MCEBuddy.Engine.ConversionJob → Destination file D:\TV2\1\Bewitched\Bewitched - Ling Ling - 1965_02_11.ts EXISTS, skipping conversion - SUCCESSFUL processing

It marks the conversion as Successful because that’s what you configured it to do above and since you’ve Enabled the option for Delete Original File on successful completion it does exactly that.

thank you so much for your kind help

I will look at that
