Recently I've gotten an error from SABnzbd stating "Unusable RAR file". Trying to manually unpack the files with 7-zip also returns an error. Today I tried using the newest version of WinRar (v5.01) and the files extracted just fine.
Am I missing something, or was something updated with the RAR spec that could also be updated in the SABnzbd client to handle these files as well?
Thanks

Re: Unusable RAR file
Which version of SABnzbd are you using?
And on which OS?

Re: Unusable RAR file
0.7.17RC2 (see Announcements board) supports the RAR5 format, older versions do not.
If you're running SABnzbd on an embedded system (like a NAS), you should
also look for an updated unrar program yourself.

Re: Unusable RAR file
Ah, I'm using the Windows 0.7.16 version.
I'll look forward to the 0.7.17 release then. Thanks!
