Pars first?

Postby enchant » Mon Jan 26, 2015 6:43 pm

I just built a new computer and am reinstalling everything from scratch. The newsbin installation went ok, and I'm working on migrating my settings over, but one thing that is odd is that if I load in an NZB that includes several par files, it's downloading the pars first before starting on any of the rars. It used to download the rars, and if any repair was needed, it'd download pars one at a time till it had enough. Is this an option somewhere?

What version are you using?

If the files are compacted together then you get a PAR download, then the rest of the files. Sounds like you're downloading files that aren't compacted together.

6.60 will download a par each time tries are expired till they all download.

I'm running 6.55. I'll keep a closer eye on the various shows I download. I downloaded several episodes in one specific series. Perhaps they were all packed (incorrectly) by the same person.
