Version 6.60 Beta 8 - Redundency

Postby EVE2 » Fri Mar 27, 2015 2:36 pm

Hi

After starting this version, I started the download of a new nzb. Subsequently, I paused the download, I have found after restart, Newsbin has not detected 6 gb already present and download again the same part even adding - (0001)

So I draw your attention to this information

thank you

If you "Force" the download. Meaning select it and hit Ctrl-Y. It'll re-download and ignore what's on disk. If you download normally, it'll use what's on disk. People bitched about not being able to re-download because Newsbin would always use the files that's on disk and not replace them.

Not sure there's a right answer. I think intuitively it would be better to use the files on disk and have some other mechanism to force a complete redownload.

I'll think about it.

Thank you Quade

You're right, and this could partly explained my problem.

When I started, because it had been rejected (failed) because he had a password. I used the function Download - Bypass filter.

Thereafter, the download has continued normally.

However, I do not think the program should ignore the parts already on the disc after put on paused and restart.

Regards

Note: If the password was on password manager, it is possible to keep the files (password filter) in the futur

You know. If the password is in Newsbin it should allow it to download and unrar with the proper password.
