ssome files i download have par2 file missing and all the other files are missing a piece but newsbin just pauses the download and i have too manually download it. Most of the time it can be repaired. How can I disable lookahead limit in the nbi so newsbin can still do it automatically

So, you're saying you have so many files in the download list that it stops downloading?

my nsp is removing the par2 file and damaging every piece of every article so because of that it newsbin just pauses i can download it manually most time it can still be repaired so how can I edit newsbin to just download the file?

You can't but, I can think about it. Older files should be assembling after the first retry.

What version are you using? B4 has had significant changes in this area. It'll unrar RARS even if there are no pars. The assembly of partial files is smarter now too. I might have to make more changes for DMCA files, like you're reporting.

Yeah, I see the problem. Newsbin isn't starting any of the par downloads because they're all incomplete. I'll think about that.
