Not downloading PAR files (Paused)

Postby steve1978 » Sun May 20, 2012 4:54 pm

Hi as the title says, when i download something all the PAR files status (bar 1) is paused. If the file needs a repair Newsbin simply retries and keeps retrying. if i manually check all the PAR files are on Pause, if i resume them they download and the Par and unrar sucseed.

IS there a setting i am missing here to automatically do this? i am sure it used to do it in the past. Currently running version 6.32 1879.

Thanks in advance

Normally on default setting this happens automatically when the retry count has been exceeded. If this is not happening for you then more information is going to be needed to try and determine why.

How many retries do you have set in the options? I'd set it to 2 if it's higher. I'd also right click "Properties" and see how many blocks and PAR blocks you have.

As work-around is to unpause the PARS by hand.
