Question About Add URL

Post by ktdt00 »

I searched the forums and wiki but couldn't find specific info.

V.0.4.11 on Windows

I enter the URL of an nzb into the "Add URL" field.

SAB downloads the nzb into the completed directory.

I guess what I was expecting to happen was for SAB to go ahead and d/l the contents of the nzb.

As soon as I moved the nzb into the watch folder it d/l'ed perfectly :)

Just wondering if I misinterpreted the "Add URL" function or if I have something misconfigured. I'm a SAB NOOB!

Thanks!!

Some NZB files just download one or more other NZBs.
This release of SABnzbd does not support automatic chaining of NZB files.

It will be in a later release when Ticket 27 is solved:
When a job contains only an NZB file(s), these files will be added to the queue as new download jobs.
