Speed limit wont take - 0.8.0Alpha2

Post by RXRacer »

I tried the first 0.8.0 alpha a while ago and noticed the speed limit wont take at all. I have schedules for lower speed between 8am and 10:30 for others in the house, so it's important. I have followed the instructions by setting a Maximum line speed first, and noted that the limiting is now in % of max speed. No dice. I went back to 0.7.2.

Thought i'd try again today. Still no dice. Could it have something to do with it being an upgrade over the top of 0.7.2? I'll do a clean install of 0.8.0 if I have to, just a pain having to redo my config again.

I'll check.
One thing you could do is stop SABnzbd and edit sabnzbd.ini manually.
Remove the line starting with:

Code: Select all

schedlines =

Didn't work. Doesn't seem to be a schedule issue. It's speed limiting in general. No speed drop if I reduce the % for a download.

I'll have another look at this during testing for Alpha 4.

No worries. I'll do a clean install which should theoretically work. I'll let you know so you have the extra info.

Problem confirmed.
Speedlimiter is fatally broken in 0.8.0Alpha 2 & 3.

You may fix this issue manually by editing the sabnzbd.ini file (after stopping SABnzbd).
Look for the line (just an example):

Code: Select all

schedlines = "2 21 4 0 20", "2 24 4 0 50"
Change this to:

Code: Select all

schedlines = "2 21 4 speedlimit 20", "2 24 4 speedlimit 50"
You'll need to repeat that for every change to the speedlimit schedule.

Will be fixed in the next Alpha.
