nzo_id changes for queued dl in 0.7.14

[SlackerATX]

Running 0.7.14 on Windows 8

The api is reporting two different nzo_ids for a specific download in the queue. One when it is initially queued and a different nzo_id when the download becomes active (starts dling). Here is the result of two identical calls to the api, the first right when the job is queued and the second less than a minute later after the job started. The first returns nzo_id = SABnzbd_nzo_uc4mp5, but the second returns nzo_id = SABnzbd_nzo_dpdfzv.

API call:
http://localhost:8080/api?output=json&a ... mode=queue

Will be looked at, but not on short term.

FYI this breaks the interface with Couchpotato.

I have been able to pinpoint the problem: The culprit is the SabNZBd option in: Switches -> Queue -> Check before download. After the checking phase, it gives the NZB a new NZO_ID. If you disable this option everything works as it should and the nzo_id remains as it was when sending the NZB.

OK, that's a side effect of the fact that the job enters the queue as a "new" job.
We'll probably not fix that because we no longer recommend using that option.
"Abort when completion is not possible" is a better option for most people.
