Downloading problem

Post by cam742 »

​Hello everyone

I have a problem for the last few weeks regarding my downloading with usenet.

Sometimes, it's downloading, but most of the time it doesn't.
It's very slow ... It can take days for a movie ...
Before it was working fine ...

When a movie is done, there are always errors like "downloading failed - Out of your server's retention" or "Unusable RAR file".

I think all errors messages are differents but just pop up cause of a similar problem regarding the downloading ...

If you need anything more from me to can help me, please let me know.

Thank you by advance for your reply
Kind regards,

Possibly there's something wrong with your Usenet server.
Did you test it in Config->Servers?

Nowadays a lot of posts disappear after DMCA complaints are filed.
A missing post will seem to go very slow and will end in an incomplete download.

So do you mean this is a problem related to my internet connection ?
Or something else ?

No, lots of posts are removed from Usenet servers because
rights-holders are serving DMCA the provider with takedown requests.

Ok, thank you for your reply and your help !

Sorry if I don't understand properly, but I think there is a problem in the settings or somewhere, cause no matters the reason with the error, there is no download so far who can end ...
That means each time I'm trying to download a movie, there is an error with a different reason ... I couldn't get a movie for months ... And before when I was using usenet for almost 3 years everything was working fine.

I don't know if the settings are wrong, I don't think so cause sometimes it's downloading, sometimes no, sometimes, it stop automatiquely (pause/resume button) and I have to click on it to resume the downloads ...
But anyway, everytime the download are done, there is an error ! And I don't get my file (I'm downloading movies).

Thank you again for your future answer and help.

Best regards,

Take an NZB that fails in SABnzbd and try it with another program, like Grabit.
