_UNPACK folder on NAS remove while watching

Post by Headgear2872 »

Hello everyone, I am new here and have a small problem with the _UNPACK folder.
Normally when I have a movie in the _UNPACK folder and start it right at the beginning of the download and download the rest while watching it, the file I'm watching is normally protected. A new folder is created but the _UNPACK folder cannot be deleted because it is in use. At least that's how it is when I have the folders locally on my PC.
Now I have a very simple NAS on a FritzBox to use this also locally in the network. But here the _UNPACK folder is not protected when I look at the file in the folder. That is when the download is over it is unpacked, moved and deleted and the movie breaks. I then have to select the new folder and restart and search where it left off.
Is there any way to change this? As I said it only affects the NAS.
Greetings and thanks.

You can disable 'Enable folder rename', see the wiki on this.
Note that other external tools you might use also then don't know when a file is still processing or when it's finished.
But if you don't use external tools, it doesn't matter.
