I'm wanting to switch to Sonarr from Sickbeard but it insists on having "check before download" disabled. Does this do anything or not? I have a quotad internet connection with limits and I hate to download things which may fail. I still get some through sickbeard, even with it ticked but ...

Hello, I have the option ticked to pre-check before downloading. If I have a big queue, the program will check the first one, download, pause next download, extract, check, then proceed with the next download. The problem is, that next download then goes through the checking process. On my mid range...

Never had a problem with this previously, tonight just pulled in 7 things, none of them unrar'd? any ideas?
EDIT: oh fixed, sorry whoops

Not all the same error, just be nice to bulk check my stuff.

They don't all have 99% that's just a list of failed ones, I'm still matching a few which download fine.

This is why I would like to perform a full check first. http://i.imgur.com/p6B73hi.png My current queue has over 30 NZB's in it ONLY 8 unique things, there's that much duplication (my decision) in my queue, due to failures. So I grab multiple copies of things, in the hope one of them will work. What...

Top entry there is 101% definitely performing the check, infact it's now finished the check and moved from 3kb/s to the full 111kb/s I allocated (and of course, reset back to 0%) The program does not infact, always tell you when it's checking. A diff coloure...

Agree with OP, mine does the same thing, mostly says checking but not always is it clear it's in the middle of a check As for not recommending using check, why? For some of us with limited bandwidth, it's imperative. I move a lot of stuff and I'm currently getting at least a 70% failure rate, I NEED...

I'm also getting this problem pretty regularly. https://forums.sabnzbd.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=13411 (the nzb passes pre-check, begins and completes download, then fails with "Repair failed, not enough repair blocks (126 short) " etc Is this just luck of the draw, nothing I can do abou...

That's a good question, perhaps I've worded it wrong. I'm having a lot of releases which will fail pre-check or fail download - forget the word fake. Most common failure is simply "this release is only 99.9% complete" - that's before it even begins. I'd just like to do a full batch of 2 to...

Update: I've done some googling, it sounds like the program actually used to do the checks first, then download - but this was changed as some people wanted it the other way. Also what method is the checker doing? is it extremely thorough? I'm noticing a HEAP of my jobs are failing with "100.2%...

Hi all, I'm having an issue with a lot of either poisoned or fake releases at the moment on my news server. In order to save my limited monthly bandwidth, I like to perform the full check on the download, before it actually commits to pulling it down. (I believe the program is doing some kind of loc...

Ahh well, worth a shot. Thanks

Thanks I appreciate it, wasn't sure how that would be received

Hi all, I use red triangular drop down box for the speed limit quite regularly, changing speeds depending if I'm watching online video, gaming, etc. I use it often. The box on both Windows and *nix builds for Sab has a ridiculously small capture window, I don't know what code it is (java? raw HTML?)...
