mp3 damaged when parts are missing on server

Post by nertwebber »

Hi,

I have noticed that when I download a mp3 file from which one ore more parts are missing on the server the file will be saved in the complete directory (though the mp3-file is damaged)??
Is there a possibility in the settings to avoid that incomplete mp3 files are saved in the complete directory??

Any help is welcome!

Ps: when I download the same file with Newspro it is NOT saved bacause of the missing parts(s) So it stays in the qeue.

One thing on the to-do list is to flag suspected downloads as such.
It hasn't reached top of the list yet.

I agree nothing is more annoying than bleeps/skips or silences while you're listening to music.
If this could be a feature I would love it.
It would be nice if dir's of downloaded files would be given a pre/postfix if it is incomplete. And if there are par's and it's been fixed if the pre/postfix was deleted.
