Go into Options / AutoPAR Options -> turn off automatically unRAR complete files.

OK, thanks. The only way I could do that was to uncheck Disable PAR Repair and then it was enabled for me to un-check. And it seems to work. Thanks.

More stuff regarding NZBs: https://youtu.be/Vu6g6DQBL38

Like mentioned before - NZB acts weird when loaded into Newsbin. Will display correct and work, when loaded by double click though.

Reported that does not work in B7 earlier Quade.


In my testing it works. I have autopar enabled and unrar disabled. It downloaded all the RAR files, verified them and then didn't unrar. You can tweak these setting both at the group and auto-load NZB level so I wonder if there's some setting overriding the main setting.

Will display correct and work, when loaded by double click though.


Feeding them to the download list directly either through double-click or NZB Autoload is the only way to properly download NZB's anymore. If you could email it to me I could take a look. I've never seen them fail that way before. ts at Newsbin dot com

I haven't disabled loading to post list so people can still look at the NZB's but apparently that's not enough. Maybe in the future, when I add to download list from post list from NZB, I just pretend and send the NZB directly to the download list

Hi Quade,

Not using any nzb files. Manually selecting android files via right clicking on group, show posts. The obb files are compressed with rar. Previously it was unraring to a separate folder, now it unrars to proper folder that I called a.b.group prior.

I have this option set for only this group via right clicking on group name, properties, Disable Unrar for this group. It still unrars the files. Always used this setting in previous versions.

Regards,
kirm

I wasn't aware of that and thought something is wrong. Now that I know, I can work around that. Thanks!
I just found it convenient for (re-)loading certain parts (PARs for example) from an NZB, without having the rest of it in the download. Because then you'd have to watch out and/or stop the already downloaded parts etc. :?

Yeah, maybe disabling that feature would make sense, so there'll be no confusion.

Whether this will work or not depends on the NZB . Most NZB's can still be loaded into a post list and examined like you attempted here but apparently there's something special about this particular NZB that makes it not work. That's why I wanted to look at the NZB. It should work but doesn't.

It was a huge file, so not really fit for sending via email. But I'll see, if I can replicate it with another file.

I don't want the actual file. Just the NZB. Is the NZB that big?

I confused it with another file - it's only around 6mb. :roll: I sent you an email.
