Skip download if NZB contains file?

Post by codeherd »

Is it possible to configure SABnzbd to skip downloading if the .nzb file contains a particular file (like *.URL)? Is there any other way to avoid downloading password'ed files?

No there is not.
The next major release (0.6.0) will have a pre-queue user script,
so that you can implement this yourself.
I don't think filtering on *.url would be a good idea,
because such a file isn't always an indication of an encrypted payload.

We have some plans to detect encrypted downloads early, but
not worked out properly yet.
