Hey all,
I wanted to know how sabnbd+ works from the instructions below. Sabnzbd+ handles downloading very intelligently as is well known. I wanted to know if Sabnzbd+ does
a)
Download ALL Files (RAR + PAR2 + PAR + ZIP + NFO + SFV)
Check CRC with SFV
If CRC doesn't match do repair.
Unpack
OR
b)
Download (RAR + ZIP + NFO + SFV)
Check CRC with SFV
if CRC doesn't match download PAR2 + PAR (However many are necessary)
Repair archive
Unpack
The method b) saves on bandwidth and the total overhead for a media document/file

Re: How SabNZBD+ works
both wrong.
download smallest par2
download "normal" files
verify
if needed: check/repair, on failure download required par2 files, go back to verify
unpack
SFV files are not used.

Re: How SabNZBD+ works
Thanks, its nice to know SABnzbd handles files intelligently and attempts to reduce the amount of data transfered.
