SABnzbd Forums

Well it appears to have extracted without issue even with the extraction error.  Any way I can tell if it is doing the multi-core PAR repairs?  I'm assuming since it was done in 5 mins that it do use both cores.

As it appears that the PAR2 options in SAB for OSX aren't able to be used, I'm curious if the NIce parameters are able to be used in OSX or should I stay away from them?

Nice option work, because "nice" is available on OSX
(Unfortunately "ionice" is not, so that SABnzbd doesn't show this option).

The missing .100 part is a missing RAR file.
Check whether this file is actually present in the NZB.

The default for OSX is a par2 program that uses OSX's GCD.
The old single core version is only used when you set the par2_multicore option to 0.

So by saying it's using GCD, I'm assuming you mean it's using the same PAR2SL that MacPAR deLuxe appears to use?

Indeed.

SWITCHES/Extra PAR2 Parameters:
I'm getting this same issue with the switch set to "t+" or "t0"
When I leave it blank it works but I imagine it will then not be mutlicore?
Also, no matter what I set the switches to... the sabnzbd.ini shows "par2_multicore = 0"
I have even tried keeping..
Extra PAR2 Parameters = t+
and setting....
par2_multicore = 1

Still no dice.

Can anyone help?

The multi-core option is only used on Windows and OSX.
For Linux you have to supply the par2 program.
Since SABnzbd doesn't know what you have it will not pass any default parameters
but only what you entered in the "extra" parameter field.
Verify that the par2 that is found first in the PATH is indeed the one you want.

BTW: the option you want is -t+
You forgot to the minus sign.

I think I understand what you are saying. There is somewhere in SABnzb that I need to specify the location of my par2 program?
If that is the case, I did not understand where to do this. Also, how is it working without the Extra PAR2 Parameters then?
I'm going to try to set the params to -t+ as you suggested, but I'm still unsure what you mean with the rest.

Also, I followed this tutorial to setup ( http://goo.gl/teotp ) which is linked to via the SABnzb home page. It tells you to use "t+" and never mentions anything about adding a path to the par2 program?

Teaching how to setup Linux systems is not the purpose of this forum.
par2 doesn't need extra options.
Our front page does not point to the tutorial you mention, it points to http://wiki.sabnzbd.org/install-ubuntu-repo
Anyway,  the tutorial you mention is inaccurate.
Can you tell where we link to it?

Sorry, I'm not asking for step by steps, just a point in the right direction. I misunderstood your first post but now it is clear.
I have double checked my par2 is (par2cmdline version 0.4) the multicore version at /usr/bin/

I have changed the extra option to -t+ and set the par2_multicore = 0 as I'm not on windows.

Let me give this a try and get bacl.

Regarding were I fould this link.....I must be mistaken, I looked all over your homepage and could not find it anymore.
I just realized it was on "Sickbeards: Install link for Ubuntu that I got to that Blog and from their found that tut for SABnzb. Appaulogies.


UPDATE -----
I tried with the -t+ option and now it works fine. Now I'm off to post on that other dude's guide to let him know of the error.
Thanks shypike.

Glad to hear that it works now.
Happy downloading!
