I am using sabnzb 0.5.6 on windows 7 64 bit. I am a total novice with this program but it seems most useful to me and I thank the developers. I always have at least to active servers for the program to use and I've noticed that if one of the servers can't download any files from the current nzb because it's retention isn't long enough it will be idle until the entire nzb is downloaded by the other server. My question is can I modify this behaviour or is the program designed to work this way. Ideally I would like the idle server to start working on the next nzb in the queue.
