mp3 files are corrupted

Post by fragilem16 »

Hello guys/girls,

I have a really annoying problem with sabnzbd, that keeps coming back.
When I download a music cd (*.mp3 files) the music files aren't complete.

For example, when the file should be 6Mb, I only recieve 2.4Mb.
The strange thing is, when I download the file 5 times, everytime the file has a different filesize.

This problem happened +-10 times on 50 cd's. Really strange and annoying, I really don't know what the problem could be.

Anybody a solution?

Have you looked at the logging at all ?
Is your server reliable?

Does the same file download fine with another program? are the files you are downloading almost expired on your newsgroup server?

Sounds like something on the edge of your retention. How old is the file? and what is your limit from your newsgroup provider?
