Automatically retry failed RSS items (downloading of nzb failed errors)

Post by Jorbes »

Hi,

I was going to post this directly to feature requests, but a search showed me something at least like this was already requested
and should even be in 0.5.4 (that i am running)

So, how do I tell sabnzb to automatically retry downloading of failed nzb files (URL ophalen mislukt is the dutch error message)

When I press the retry button, it usually works fine, so I'd like sabnzb to do this for me like every N minutes for failed items with a maximum of M retries.

Possible?

Thanks

It already tries about ten times before giving up.
Sites do not appreciate being hammered with requests when
they already have difficulty answering requests.
Also, when SABnzbd gets a definitive "no" answer, it gives up immediately.

Ok, but then I would like to control the interval in which it does this, maybe change it to like: retry every N minutes with a max of X times.
I'd like to control both of those variables.

Cheers.
