Post by fred44nl »

hi,
in the watched folder, there remains for every nzb a hidden file, with the same name as the original nzb.
how can I prevent this ??

How can it be the same name?

Can you show an example?

aahhh, not exactly the same name :)
the original nzb would be: Banshee Seizoen 1 (2013) HQ 720p DD 5_1 NL Subs.nzb
this file is processed properly.
what's left behind is: ._Banshee Seizoen 1 (2013) HQ 720p DD 5_1 NL Subs.nzb
which is a hidden file.

I see these files on my HDD connected to my Raspberry Pi,
which I control from my MacBook Air.
the solution that comes from www.cnet.com was already in place.

I'm reluctant to follow up because it's a "MacOS & external HDD"-thing, not a SABnzbd thing, so this will probably lead nowhere, but here we go:

You have BlueHarvest (= solution on Cnet) in place and that does not work? Well, I would contact BlueHarvest.
