unpacking/repair is failing a lot lately
Posted: June 18th, 2015, 5:00 pm
I'm not sure what changed, as this seems a newish problem for me, but lately over half my downloads fail to unpack. The most common error is
ยป Unpacking failed, unable to find Interstellar.2014.2-Disc.IMAX.Edition.Blu-ray.CEE.1080p.AVC.DD5.1-HDCLUB.part066.rar
This file isn't in the folder, but only because it's been changed to Interstellar.2014.2-Disc.IMAX.Edition.Blu-ray.CEE.1080p.AVC.DD5.1-HDCLUB.part066.1.rar and also in the folder is Interstellar.2014.2-Disc.IMAX.Edition.Blu-ray.CEE.1080p.AVC.DD5.1-HDCLUB.part066.rar.1
I manually changed one of these folders to be 'correct' by removing the extra .1 and deleted the other one, so it just showed the exact filename SAB is now complaining it can't find, but when I put it back in the queue, it tries to unpack and repair, then fails again, after SAB changes the filename back to one of these 2 names.
The file in question is not the same size as all the other files, so it's certainly an incomplete file, but the par files have always been able to work around this issue in the past.
Any ideas on how to correct this issue, and get this file unpacked once and for all? I have about 10 nzb files suffering this same fate currently.
FYI, we recently moved to the mountains and can only get (horrible) satellite internet, which has a 10GB cap and unlimited downloading from midnight to 5am. If I have to re-download all these files it will likely take all month; which I'd really like to avoid.
thanks in advance for any help.
