The Preparing Library stage (after Sign-in) was much shorter this time, so Documents sync was deferred to a later time?

The Recommended Library set was 510 resources @ 9.1 GB, and it delivered all my Priroritized resources without any Hidden resources.

I note the older phrasing of the 2x "Auto Download" options, instead of the newer text in Program Settings.

One anomaly showed a conflict between user Series and original series from Prioritization. I had renamed many Tyndale Commentaries to Tyndale Originals; prioritizing the former. The Tyndale Originals were also downloaded.

I closed the Download Logos 8 Library window shortly after downloading began, and was pleased that the restart went straight to the Logos 8 UI, from where the downloading continued (when I was ready!).

    For now, this is the expected behavior. The download is based on the Faithlife-provided series metadata, not the user-customized metadata. We have a case for improving this, but I don't have any information as to when or if it will be addressed.

    So, if I prioritized Tyndale Originals instead of Tyndale Commentaries, the books would not be downloaded (similar to renaming a whole series)?
