SABnzbd Forums

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

Which version of SABnzbd are you using?
And on which OS?

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.

Ah, I'm using the Windows 0.7.16 version.

I'll look forward to the 0.7.17 release then. Thanks!
