6.40 RC1 Overlapping Posts

Postby Stuart264 » Sat Aug 25, 2012 12:01 pm

6.40 RC1 is overlapping the last 10 posts even when the overlap on the server is set to 0 on autodownloads, its also annoyingly bypassing the download filters when it does it

Some servers need it. If you set it to 1 in the server options, it'll just do 1.

its also annoyingly bypassing the download filters when it does it


Don't get this part. Overlap has no effect on whether filters are used or not.

It keeps downloading the same posts again and again, I have "copy type rename" enabled and I found it had got up to 47 copies of the same file this morning in one group

Signature cache is disabled? RC1 actually has a new feature because of overlap, that's supposed to prevent that from happening. If looks at the chunk it downloaded and the filename, looks at the file on disk and if they match up, it doesn't save anything.
