File List is not showing files properly

Postby ppan » Wed Jul 27, 2016 7:54 pm

Several (but not all) files are blank in the file list:

(using v6.71)

If I resize the columns, the file names etc shows up.

Yeah seems to be a repaint problem.

Thanks.

Here is another issue that I frequently see in the download list when I open a collapsed filegroup:

It sometimes takes a long time (30-60 sec?) before I can see the files.
In particular when Newsbin is choking and throwing unRAR errors (see this post; viewtopic.php?f=8&t=40342&p=216366#p216366)

It has to go do disk for the information to display. If you're already beating on the disk (like unraring) it might take awhile.

Your winrar errors suggest that something is messing with the download folder preventing Newsbin from opening the RARS when it should be able to. Not an uncommon issue with security software. The "Volume" errors are coming directly from the winrar code which is saying it can't access the RARS that should already be on disk.

Can you please respond to the questions directly in that post ( http://forums.newsbin.com/viewtopic.php ... 66#p216366). In particular, how do I stop the failing unRAR of the particular files. It is hanging Newsbin and slowing down my PC.
