Won't unrar without a .rar

Postby gquiring » Thu Nov 22, 2012 8:12 pm

I noticed if I download a set of rars that don't have a .rar file and instead start with a .r01 NewsBin won't unrar the set. The error is unrar failed 0%.

[09:08:35] ERROR - AutoPARPlugin: Autopar Block Counts Indicate good files but, UnRAR FAILED: No UnRAR:

I am using v6.40 b2059

My understanding is, unless you have the first RAR file, the RAR set is junk.

It's not junk, I am able to unrar the sets and it's good.

I have seen some posted sets which start with 001 and are complete, yeah. Rare, bad form, but it happens.
