Sabnzbd not deleating -sample files

Post by pilGrim »

Hello all,

Hoping someone can help me out with a nudge in the right direction.

Long time user of sabnzbd. Never problems until about a month ago (I think, as did notice right away).

Issue:
for movies -sample files are no longer deleted. then Radarr imports the sample file instead of full movie and deletes everything behind it. Result is I get a movie in plex that is only 1 minute long.

Have done the following:
Gone into config, switches and under 'post processing' section checked 'ignore samples".
Thought maybe my config was corrupt so unchecked, saved and then checked and save again.
Also have " , -sample, .sample" in the cleanup list.
Even deleted the docker (unraid) and reinstalled, still a problem.

Also looked through Radarr but don't see any features to filter out a -sample file.

Any advice much appreciated at this point.

Cheers,
Greg

Thank you. I did some searches before posting but somehow missed that thread.

Cheers.
