NZB Watch Directory --> Top of Download List

Postby Spencer » Thu Aug 08, 2013 5:04 pm

Searched for similar questions, but didn't come up with anything. Apologies if this has already been answered and I missed it somehow!

Thanks to a hard drive failure, I recently had to re-install Newsbin from scratch. I got everything back to the way I like it, with one exception: previously, I had two NZB Watch directories for SickBeard & CouchPotato. When Newsbin loaded an NZB from either of those directories, the content would go directly to the top of the download queue. I can NOT figure out how I did this in my last version of Newsbin when I originally set up SickBeard. Anything that is currently picked up from those directories is being added to the bottom of the queue like anything else that's added.

Have I just missed a really obvious setting somewhere?

Thanks in advance for any advice! :)

I look at the options for one of my NZB watch items and near the bottom see "Add to the top of the download list". If you don't see it, you might have installed an older version.

*facepalm* :(

Looks like in my rush to get things going after a new Windows install, I downloaded the non-beta 6.42 instead of the most current 6.50

Thanks very much for the quick response! :)

Well, in your defense, the 6.50 IS a beta version.

Sorry, I'm a little confused. I'm running 6.42, is the feature to insert NZB to top of the download list unavailable in this version?

I do not think so. I seem to remember the introduction of multiple NZB Watch folders being new in the 6.50 beta series.

I'm not too concerned about multiple watch folder, I'm more interested in picking up NZB from watch list and adding to the top of the download queue.

Yes - but the ability to do that is one of the settings under the Properties for each Watch folder that you set in 6.50 beta.
