SABnzbd Forums

Hi -- Just installed 0.4.2 from OSX.dmg on a G5/10.4.11 after uninstalling 0.3.4. I don't know if this is a feature or a bug -- when I drop the .nzb into my watch folder, as it gets moved to the incomplete folder to be queued, it's is somehow being tar'd/zipped. This didn't happen with the earlier version, and I don't see anywhere in preferences where I might have told it to behave like this. Should I worry?

If you mean nzb's that are put in the backup directory, then yes this is by design. To save space the nzb's are compressed. These nzb files will still work in most decent newsreaders (including sabnzbd).

Thanks for the quick response. I really really like this app -- best thing for usenet since par files.
