downloads failing on repair or SFV verification

Post by springs »

Hi all,

My first post here so hopefully someone may be able to help.

I've been using Sab for a month or 2 now and has been working great. My main problem is that on certain downloads i get a lot of failures due to "Repair failed, not enough repair blocks (819 short)"

also on some after its failed on the repair it tries to do a SFV verification " "Trying SFV verification Some files failed to verify against .SFV"

Some files are newly released (as in within the last 24 hours) others are years old.

My Usenet account is via giganews if that helps.

Have all available par2 files been downloaded.
There are plenty of incomplete post around and the DMCA crowd is very busy taking stuff down.
