Redownloaing files after shutdown.

Hi,
Got a small problem, I'm half way through a 50gb download, needed to reboot the system, shutdown Newsbin Pro, rebooted system, restarted Newsbin Pro, and now it's started re-downloading the first 25gb of files again, instead of continuing on.

Original files are still on the hard disk, the re-downloaded files have -(0001) -(0002) and so on added to the file name.

Running Newsbin Pro 6.40: 00 0B 97 DE 7E 32

Is there any way to recover the files that are already downloaded? I'm on a crappy ADSL line and can only manage a 3mbit connection, so would prefer not to re-download the 25gb again if possible.

Thanks,
Dave

Does the set have PAR files?

As long as it downloads a par before it starts downloading the rest of the files, it should be checking and not re-downloading. Wonder if it gets behind because the the files are large?

I'll try it with my test server and see what happens.

A work around is to pause, right click and generate an NZB file from the download, then delete the download, load the NZB using the "Load NZB" button, then click the + and add just the files you haven't already downloaded.

You can also, click the + in the download list and pause the files you already have.

Thanks Quade, download the par files, restarted and it's all good now.
