Hello,

SInce upgrading to 0.6.0 final I'm having issues with the Post Processing task that runs after download (Download, +Repair, +Unpack, +Delete). My default PP value for downloads is +Delete, for the TV category it is set to Default (should inherit +Delete), I also tested setting TV to +Delete as well, with no change.

My application sends the command to SABnzbd without &pp= (which should default t+Delete based on my settings and previous experience), since I upgrade to 0.6.0 Final from 0.6.0 Beta2 this now defaults to Download only (forcing me to manually extract the downloads) added with my application.

I did some testing by adding with &pp= set to 0, 1, 2 & 3, when set to 0 it defaults to Download, when set to 1, 2 or 3, SABnzbd respects that value and its shows properly in the UI.

Is this an expected change for 0.6.0 Final?

If any further information is required, please let me know.
Thanks in Advance.

No, I'll look into it.
BTW: which API call do you use exactly?

AddUrl with the link to the nzb, a name, priority and category.

I've temporarily corrected the issue by forcing it to set pp=3 when I send the command to SAB.

I cannot reproduce the issue.
Are you sure that you don't have a situation where SABnzbd picks up a category
from either the NZB site (like newzbin or nzbmatrix) or from groups.
If that category has a specific PP value, then that one will be used.
How is your default category set?

Ahhh, so the issue is when I have my pre-queue script running (if I disable the pre-queue script, I don't see this issue).

My pre-quere script will try to parse the value passed from SABnzbd, is the value is empty (as I see it to be in my logs), then a zero is returned. The issue appears to be with the return from the Pre-Queue script not handling the zero properly and using the default action.

Here is a censored output of my pre-queue script's log file: I'm receiving a blank PP#, so I return a zero.

Sorry for the confusion, I forgot about the Pre-Queue Script momentarily.

0 means download-only.
-1 or an empty line is default.

Well that would be it. Weird that I haven't come across this before.

Thanks for the help and sorry about the bother.
