Why Does ParNRar Extract files that sabnzbd doesnt?

Post by markedmanner »

Some things I download says FAILED and says I have missing blocks and sabnzbd doesnt extract anything. Then if I run ParNRar for the files I just downloaded it extracts them fine?? Why wouldnt Sabnzbd just extract them if ParNrar can? There may be a simple answer to this I dont know. Thanks

There's no simple answer, it depends.
There might be incorrectly named par2 files.
SABnzbd is a bit more picky about names.

Please email an example of an NZB file that unpacks
OK with ParNRar, but not with SABnzbd to bugs at sabznbd.org
(adding the URL of this message).
