Par downloads

Postby far canal » Fri Sep 21, 2012 4:44 pm

Installed the newest beta - 2057 - this week. I'm finding Par files are being downloaded when they are not needed. It's happened twice, from (I think) the same poster. Can't say I've had this before. Have I tripped a new switch that I'm not aware of ?

I'm on a limited bandwidth news server, so I don't want to be wasting unnecessary Mb's of usage.

UnRAR failures will trigger it to download more pars. There are some other "emergency mode" reasons for it to download all the PAR files.

Is there anything odd about the files it does it too?

You can PM me the subject of the files of you want me to look at them. Don't post them here.

I'll see if it happens again. If so, I'll send you a PM.
BTW - forgot to mention, I'm using NZBs, not headers.
