SABnzbd Forums

For some reason sabnzbd is skipping most of the par2 files in my nzbs. I have tried unchecking various options, but I cannot find the right setting to force the program to download all the files. The default automatic par2 grabbing does not work either. I generally need to repair my downloads and have to manually download the par2s as a separate nzb or using a different client. I never had a problem in the past, I don't know what is causing this. I am using the latest version. Thanks in advance for any help.

You don't give any details about the failing repairs, so what do you expect me to say?
Anyway, if you use just "Download" as Post processing setting, you'll get all files
without any post processing.

They fail as in they are missing pars, I get a red skull icon. If I put my cursor over the download, the program states the verify failed against the sfv. If I turn that setting off, I will get a CRC error, due to broken rars that need to be repaired. Like I mentioned, if I manually grab the pars and repair using QuickPar I can successfully repair and unrar.

Could you be more specific as to what I should check/uncheck in the post-processing under Switches in the settings, I don't see a "download" option, I must be missing something. Thanks

The main reason for a failing job, while QuickPar finds it OK is
when the poster has violated the naming convention for par2 files.
I would need an example of a failing NZB file.
BTW: I assume your using Windows?
Please send an example NZB to bugs at sabnzbd.org
