Upgrading to V6.6x and download list is gone

Postby NetNut » Mon Nov 23, 2015 4:19 pm

When upgrading from V 6.56 to 6.62 the active download list is gone. Made new entries and found out major performance issues when unraring, even with 2000 buffers the counter runs to zero and download stops. When i reverted to V 6.56 my "new" download list was gone and the old one that was lost when upgrading from v 6.56 got back. Looks like the versions store the download list in different ways ?

Seems that there is some sort of problem regarding unrar, i'm running on a i7 2600k and have had no issues with this until i upgraded to v 6.60/6.62. Is there any changes to the storing of chunks between the versions ?

Yes. It's in the release notes. They use different files.

Stalling download during unrar is intentional to make the unrar as fast as possible. People have complained though so, it'll go back to the old way eventually. Just not in 6.6X.
