lots of incompletes and failed downloads

Post by imphat »

I've been using sick beard and sabnzbd to download tv shows, but on the last couple of weeks most of the nzb files sick beard is forwarding to sab are resulting in incomplete downloads. Some of them hang on sab's queue and others just finish with a 'Download Failed' message.

I was using only newshosting as usenet server and today I've tried to add another server, which is usenetserver. Even with both servers sab won't file the same files, for example Arrow.S01E01.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION

If it was only a couple of files I would think it was due to a bad nzb, but this has happened to the while Arrow 1st season and most of Fringe 4th season episodes as well as many others.

Can anyone help me to fix that?
