Invalid par2 files, cannot verify or repair

Post by Hollywoodtas »

Hello. I am new to this so please let me know if what I am asking has already been answered. Furthermore some of the threads I have read are quite frankly over my head. My issue is with the "Invalid par2 files, cannot verify or repair" I removed the tick out of the "Post-Process Only Verified jobs" as mentioned in one of the threads but now the last download that completed stated "Unpacking failed, unable to find 5b9eaa43be3654c40b8eea4d8541ebea.187". Can anyone assist in this area. I do have a snap shot of my SABnzbd screen but I am unsure if I can attach to a thread.

It looks like a case of an incomplete post.
But nowadays you never know.
Please email the NZB file to [email protected] and add the URL of this message.

I have emailed a screen print of the downloads attempted which shows the file names....I am hoping that is what you have requested. Please let me know if you require further information. Cheers

I did not post.
Must be the forum software acting up.
It will also take some time before I can process your files.

@Hollywoodtas:
There was a spammer posting in a lot of threads posts like "Great post. Thank you", probably including this one, so you got a mail. I removed the spammer and his/her postings. After that, you arrived here, and the spam post was already gone.

No, not yet. Have been pursuing other problems.
BTW: which operating system do you use?

I have found that if I download movies that are 720p rather than 1080p that I don't get the Par2 problem......well not so far anyway. I have downloaded only 3 at 720p.

No, because I cannot reproduce your problem.
