My problem is I finally got SAB to automate from nzbplanet...sorta. They download to my intermediate folder and stay stuck as rars
I am on MacOS 10.15.7
Any help out there?
I am still learning verbage so please, take it easy on me

That's a bit vague to diagnose.
When you download in the Status and Interface settings (the Wrench icon) the 100MB test-download, does it unpack normally to 1 bin file?
Did you change any Category settings?
Did you get any warnings?

I saw my cart was empty in planet and went and searched for the nzb. I found it in intermediate as rars.
To the best of my knowledge, it actually downloaded pretty quickly!
I assume the 'rars' download quickly and the time consumption is in unpacking?
Anyway, I appreciate any help you can give. I'm stuck.

As far as the Status and Interface settings; I have no idea what you are talking about. I know the setting, but haven't investigated it.
I am learning as I go still!
I am sorry it is vague because I am still learning. I will give info as we go if I know!
I don't believe I changed any settings if I weren't pretty confident in what I was doing.
No, no warnings.

I am still not sure what you did, but could you please do this:


What is the resulting downloaded file?

I did 100mg and 1000mg both completed

And they both resulted in 1 single file?
Can you try to download a single file from your indexer again and try again?

They both resulted in a single file. (2 files, one for each) I will reDL another file and tell you results.

I went to DL another file:
1. Went to planet and sent a movie to my cart.
2. Went to SAB and 'read' my feed 1
This time nothing happened!
Also in SAB when I 'read' my RSS it sends me to the categories page. I can't find a tutorial that i understand to set them up specifically.
Somewhere between planet and SAB, I'm missing something. I can add NZB's manually to SAB after DL the NZB, but it won't do it automatically.
In Planet there is an icon to send to SAB but it is greyed out.
I'm missing something somewhere

OK, dinking around, it finally unpacked (?) to intermediate where it sits.

I manually DL with the NZB successfully just to 'make sure'

Might you have a solution or direction, please?

In the RSS settings page, is everything left to Default?

Yes
Other than my default string connecting planet to sab

Oke, then we should debug:
Could you enable +Debug logging in the Status and Interface settings window (the wrench icon), it is probably now set to "Errors/Warnings".
Then, after it happens again that the download doesn't unpack, click Show Logging in the same window.
Send that log to me at [email protected]
