SABnzbd Forums

Hi.
I haven't found an answer to this in the wiki or the forums.
When sabnzbd starts a job with par2-files, it always downloads the first par2-file with repair-blocks (usually vol00+01.par2 or something similar), which, for bigger jobs, can have quite a size.
Why is sabnzbd not only loading the much tinier .par2-file?
Needlessly downloading verification-blocks has an impact over time, especially when somebody is using a usenet-service with traffic-restrictions.

Is there a way to change this behavior?

Only the smallest vol-par file is downloaded.
We're looking at some adjustments for a future version.

That's excellent news, thank you very much.
