my negative feedback on 0.5

Post by dontango »

Two minor things that bother me:

1. History page: Why did you remove the "total bytes downloaded" counter? It was just a little gimmick but i like to purge my history but still want to see how much i downloaded since i installed sabnzbd+ ;)

2. NZBS.org behavior: I use the nzbs.org rss feed called "my nzbs feed". This used to download nzbs that i manually added to my "My NZBs" folder on nzbs.org. In 0.5 it downloads and deletes the nzbs in that folder. When i open my browser and manually download a nzb from that folder it does not get deleted so i guess this is a new feature in 0.5?

Keep on with the good work, just my little feature requests... ;)

1.
This is an unfortunate oversight and will be fixed later.
Not now, because for 0.5.0Final only one issue will be solved (DNS problem on some systems).

2.
I have no idea what you mean.

Well, i don't know who is doing the RSS code.

NZBS.org offers to "bookmark" uploads like Newzbin. In 0.4.12 sabnzbd+ would fetch those bookmarked nzbs and download them. But when i use 0.5.6 sabnzbd+ fetches those bookmarked nzbs and deletes them on the site. If i view my bookmarks after sabnzbd+ has fetched them they are gone. This has never happened with 0.4.12 so i guess the new beta is to blame.

This isn't us, it's nzbs.org. As soon as you click the download link in your "My NZBs" page (effectively what the RSS feature does), nzbs.org removes it from the list.

I'm not sure why you'd want to keep them there, though. The site's new functionality makes perfect sense to me.

SABnzbd doesn't contain any support for nzbs.org bookmarks,
it's treated like any other RSS feed.
So, like inpheaux said, SABnzbd doesn't erase the bookmarks.
