Start downloads only by Hand ?

Post by Marquis »

Hi,
first of all, sorry about my very bad english!  ::) i´m only a poor german...  :P

I use SAB now for good 2 months, before that I used "Alt.binz". Now I'm excited by SAB !!! A very, very good tool! I have been able to persuade some friends to use  ;D

OK, my Question:
I would like to say SAB that he NOT start downloads automatic, i want start by hand.
Or import new NZBs always as "paused". So that i can start download manual.
At moment i have the "Rule" -Stop Download-, so that is SAB on Startup in Pause. But maybe, the first download is finished since 5 minutes. i import a new NZB and the download begins immediately on its ow.

Maybe there some options in the ".ini" but i not found them...

Thanks for your Help !!!

This is very easy in 0.5 (slated to be released any day now!).

Just pause your queue and keep it paused. Then individually un-pause items, or set their priority to "force".
