SABnzbd Forums

I have couch potato and sickbeard setup and it everything seems to be working fine except for one thing. I will click on one of my downloads to see all the individual files and I don't have all of the par2 parts. I have the main one, but not all the others. When I look on nzbmatrix to see if it had par2 files with the NZB, it does. Multiple times it has failed repair because it didn't have the par2 files and I have had to manually download just the par2 files that were part of the nzb and repair it myself. I am not sure if this is a issue with the nzbmatrix API, sickbeard, couch potato, or sadnzbd. If someone could shed some light on this, it would be helpful.

I am running 0.6.1 on OS X.

Sometimes the par2 files do not follow the naming convention of the RAR files.
This can confuse SABnzbd.
Can you check this?

I did. I looked in the folder and didn't see the pars. So I went back to nzbmatrix and downloaded the partial nzb with just the par2 files so I could repair it.

I'm still interested in the original NZB file.
If you can retrieve it, can you email it to bugs at sabnzbd.org ?
(Please add the URL of this thread).

Next time it happens I will post a bug report. I can't remember the exact nzb and source it came from.

Ok I have sent an email.

The details list is deceptive.
The "what is" picture doesn't show the par2 files, because they are suppressed.
Only when nothing at all has been downloaded yet, will it show the full list.
As soon as the first (smallest) vol+par2 is in, the other vol-par2 files are hidden.
These files will only re-appear when after the first failed repair,
the job is sent back to the queue.

I'll have a further look at the NZB later.
