Quade, could you test if for you the newest posts of that poster s@nd are marked as downloaded?
Because today I deliberately tried some posts from other posters - and they are marked as downloaded correctly.
But not from that particular poster. Lots and lots of posts - and all not marked, but before approximately November 05 - all were marked.
Actually, I haven't tried his reality tv, or NFL posts, just scripted tv shows, they all are not marked.
Let me try a few of the very latest of his other posts.
Hm, mixed results, but mostly not marked as downloaded:
If the .nfo file and .srr file have exactly the same name as .mkv file - then the post is not marked as downloaded.
But if the .nfo and .srr files have a different name than the .mkv file - then the post is marked as downloaded.
So, for example - and I'm not sure if I can quote here the exact names of the shows, so I will just put the first letters of their titles, the season and episode numbers should help to identify the posts, they are currently the very latest posts of this poster:
- B.D.S07E11 both 720p and 1080p - NOT marked as downloaded, the three files have the same name in both cases.
- A.V.B.R.S00E45 both 720p and 1080p - marked as downloaded, the three files have different names
- M.T.M.S07E14 both 720p and 1080p - NOT marked as downloaded, the three files have the same name in both cases.
- K.U.W.T.K.S17E12 1080p - NOT marked as downloaded, the three files have the same name, but 720p - marked as downloaded, the three files have different names
- NFL - I tried a couple of those - NOT marked as downloaded, the three files have the same name in each case.
- M.R.S04E11 both 720p and 1080p - NOT marked as downloaded, the three files have the same name in both cases.
As to DownloadMarker.db3 - I found the following 3 files:
DownloadMarker.db3 (485,474,304 bytes)
DownloadMarker.DB3-shm (32,768 bytes)
DownloadMarker.DB3-wal (4,169,472 bytes)
I closed NewsBin, removed those three files, and restarted NewsBin (all the markings as downloaded were gone) and tried to download again:
No difference! Still not marked as downloaded!
So the reason for not marking as downloaded is not that the DB files got corrupted.
Quade, please try yourself.
Notice, that if the three files: .nfo, srr, and .mkv have the same name - the post is NOT marked as downloaded.
Furthermore, I tried a different poster, and the post was marked as downloaded.
So what about the three files in that post from the other poster?
Turns out, .nfo and .mkv have the same name, but .srr is missing altogether.
So, it seems, the problem is with .srr file. If it is present, it must have a different name than .mkv file, otherwise the post is NOT marked as downloaded.
Still, I cannot say with 100% certainty that in the case of other posters if all three files are present and have the same name, the post are never marked as downloaded. Not sure about that.
But let's concentrate on this poster, because it should be easy to reproduce the problem with his posts.
IMPORTANT UPDATE:
Tested with 6.82 RC3 - posts NOT marked as downloaded
Tested with 6.82 RC2 - posts NOT marked as downloaded
Tested with 6.82 Beta 3 build 5090 - posts ARE marked as downloaded, everything is OK!
I have no intermediate versions to test, possible later betas or RC1.
But Beta 3 is working fine.
So for now, I will be using beta 3.
Please fix the new bug introduced after Beta 3 in 6.82 before releasing 6.82 Final
Again, the problem seems to be related to the .srr file being present and having exactly the same name as .mkv (or perhaps other main) file.
If .srr is absent or if .srr has a different name - then the post is correctly marked as downloaded.
