Hey guys!
I was wondering if it possible to automatically force every new article to be paused upon insertion into queue.
About a month ago, newzmatrix had some issue and I started downloading the entire TV section via RSS. Now, I'm with Comcast and they have a 250GB cap which I almost overshot if I had enough HDD space. Right now I'm forced to pause SABnzbd+, review the queue and then resume the queue. What I'd like to do is instead of pausing and resuming the entire queue, just resume an article that I am sure I want to download.
Thanks for the help.

Re: Automatically add new articles in paused state
There will be such an option in a later release.
Right now you can use a work-around.
There's a "hidden"option that sets a limit to the size of an NZB.
If the download size is above the limit, the job will be paused.
Just set the limit very low and each job will be paused.
See: http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/configure-special
option "size_limit".

A FYI on this setting, I set it to 0M as I wanted all downloads to be paused. It seems this value did not work, as all downloads started as normal. I changed it to 1M and this captured all downloads.shypike wrote: There's a "hidden"option that sets a limit to the size of an NZB.

Unsure if this is a bug or an undocumented feature.

0 is no limit.
Re: Automatically add new articles in paused state
this is a heaven-sent feature, thanks shypike! i lost about 50% of my monthly usage in the last 2-3 days thanks to unwanted items appearing in my RSS feeds. i can only add so many exceptions....
is this an official feature yet in 0.5.6? i can't seem to find the option but would love to be corrected.

Re: Automatically add new articles in paused state
It's an official feature, but some of the more obscure ones, we don't add to the UI.
This feature is just a poor man's solution. We're still looking for a better implementation.
