Hello,
I get that the sfv file is for checking if the files were downloaded correctly.
I thought also that sabnzbd does the checking automatically. There is also an option "cleanup list" where you can set files to delete.
I was wondering if I put .sfv in the "cleanup list" it would prevent sabnzbd from checking or does it check before deleting?
sfv file?

Re: sfv file?
SABnzbd relies on par2 files for verification (and possibly repair).
That's the reason we don't use the SFV files at all.
Maybe we'll use them in a future release to check downloads that do not have par2 files.
About the removal: the par2 files are also removed, after verification.
