Download/UnRAR paths broken in 6.40 Build 2059

Postby Marky » Tue Oct 02, 2012 12:59 am

Just upgraded from 2057 and now seeing this issue, was not there with 2057

Maindownload folder is F:\Newsgroups\$(GOG)\
UnRAR folder is F:\Newsgroups\$(GOG)\$(FILENAME)\

All files downloaded seem to be being UnRAR'd into the same folder.
A folder for $(FILENAME) is created for the first unrar'd file
but subsequent downloads don't have one created and go into the above created folder.

It's actually intentional. The issue is that the filename comes from the subject and when you select multiple sets, it's using the top subject for the "$(SUBJECT)" pathing.

I'll have to think about it. You sort of want all singular files like images to go into the same filenamed folder but, you might not want all rar sets to go into the same folder.

One work-around would me to add the sets one at a time to the download list using Click on box or select and hit enter.

Build 2057 seemed to work how i would expect. Whats happening now just seems odd to me.

In 2057 if i had a couple of rar sets that had subjects of say RarSet1 & RarSet2 i would
end up with folders of RarSet1 and Rarset2

Now in 2059 i get a RarSet1 folder with both RarSet1 and RarSet2 UnRar'd into it.

I've got a situation now where all UnRar'd files in a group are going into 1 folder.
They were all added from the post list in one go.
There should at least be a folder per rar set created?

Will a downgrade back to 2057 just work?

Similar thing happened to me. Using an NZB, with subjects in the NZB of the form
[12345]-[FULL]-[#a.b.aabbcc@qrst]-[Qrrrrrr.S33E51.XXXX.YYYY-SZZZZZ]-[03/35] "qrrrrr.s33e51.xxxx.yyyy-zzzzz.part01.rar" yEnc

1 rar set with that title and 3 files with that title, .sfv, .nfo and .srr

22 sets of the 4 files, differing in the e51 part

They ALL unrared to H:\zt\qrrrrr.s33e51.xxxx.yyyy-zzzzz, where previous to this build, they would have unrared to 22 different folders, e.g.

H:\zt\qrrrrr.s33e51.xxxx.yyyy-zzzzz
H:\zt\qrrrrr.s33e52.xxxx.yyyy-zzzzz
H:\zt\qrrrrr.s33e53.xxxx.yyyy-zzzzz etc.

My Unrar folder is set to H:\zt\$(FILENAME)\

I very much prefer the old behavior.

I see your point. Problem is 6.40 is out so, any changes will probably have to be in the next beta.

You could revert to the version you liked too. Most of the fixes between RC5 and RC6 are pretty minor.

If 6.40 is out personally i would pull it. I think your potentially going to get a lot of support issues with this.

UnRAR sets being UnRAR'd to the same directory is a real problem. You have no way to know what
files belong together.

Just my opinion.

I'm thinking about putting out a 6.41RC for you. I'm just not convinced this will have a mass impact.

I was just porting some code back in 6.40 for this. You can run build #2057 and get the old behavior. That was RC5. I figured there was no real hurry because RC5 works just fine.

Dex'll have to. I'll point this out to him. I don't know where it is on the server.
