Downloading single files/NFO Files/Obfuscation

Post by Vectraat »

-So to download single files in SAB, I first have to click on an NZB file > Hover over the file name in SAB and click the folder icon and select/de-select from there? I just tried this - wouldn't let me select an NFO file, but it *looks* like it insta-downloaded before I could pause the download. And..... the NFO has an obfuscated file name. I thought the latest updates always fix the file name obfuscation?

-Also, I've noticed that many uploads don't have .NFO files. Is there a reason they aren't typically included for Usenet uploads?

Indeed many don't have NFO files anymore. You can also add NZB's paused when uploading a NZB via the Add-NZB pop-up or by just pausing the queue before adding. Then you can de-select the files and it isn't insta-download.
