Thanks for reply.

I understand the pre check is an unknown time variable but ETA is only an estimate.

I understand I do not get a vote but for me it displaying something even if it excludes the pre check time is better than nothing.

I really miss knowing when my queue is estimated to complete.

Could I request an enhancement so the ETA is displayed on the Queue page for all items even if the Check before download option is selected? I assume it is this option causing the problem since enabling it there is no means to know when each item in the queue is estimated to finish it only displays ...

When you add an NZB would it be possible to have the option (or for it do by default) download the smaller type files listed in the NZB first?

Thanks

If you add a NZB pointing to a NZB to the Watched Folder the completion checker says only 100% is available (correctly) and stops the processing.

Perhaps if SAB detects this scenario it ignores the completion checker and just sends the NZB to download?

TIA

Thanks for Beta5 for me what is currently implemented in beta 5 is working great. Yes the item will start downloading but as you display the average download rate in the history after the download completes (this is useful information) I also think displaying the completion rate that was calculated ...

Quick update - tried beta5 working great now. My previous test files no longer download automatically. Many thanks. Even better able to adjust the completion rate up a bit via a Special option just to be a bit on the safe side. Perfection if it included a "Download should succeed, 104.1% of req...

Yes that might be better as you say there is always a bit of guess work needed.

Perhaps make this a configurable setting? Even if its a "Special" setting.

Thanks for information and I get it that you are not going to change but I will put forward my argument anyway just in case I can win you over. Currently the check is trying to be too clever - there are 108 articles missing when normally there are probably none or very few missing. I think the check...

Thanks for trying to help I have now found the Download Quality lines and also noticed it mentions the number of articles missing in the history. It is saying ratio 1.02 but there were 108 articles missing. With this number of missing articles I can't see how it can have a ratio over 1! Instead of t...

Thanks can you tell me what I should search for as I can't find the line. I can see some articles have failed but I can't see a line saying what the total number of articles were and how many were missing? If it is "working" (without the totals I have no way of easily telling) perhaps we n...

Thanks for the explanation.

Any chance of you outputting the results of the completion check to the log file so I can see why it is still downloading even though it is incomplete?

Just total articles checked and total articles available will help out with testing?

Thanks

If you click Status and then Status again an Unable To Connect error is displayed.

The first time you click Status it goes to http://host/sabnzbd/status/

If you click Status again it goes to http://host/sabnzbd/connections/

I think it has the wrong URL for the Status menu on the actual Status page.

I have about 40 articles missing and it appears SABnzbd outputs a line to the log saying each article is missing during the checking phase but it still downloads the post even though they are too many missing articles. Could you add some debug statements to the log file on what criteria it is using ...

Sounds good looking forward to new interface.

Instead of all items in the queue being completion tested have the option to just select a single item in the queue to be tested by perhaps adding a Job Option of (C)heck.

The "Check before download" could then be renamed to "Always check before download"
