Yes, you can specify a schedule delay for each source in the config file. Basically you indicate the number of times you want MR to run (after finding an nzb) before actually telling SAB about it. For example, lets say you have a source called XVID with a schedule_delay of 1. MR runs and finds an nzb in the XVID source feed that it wants to download. Because there is a delay of 1, it will remember the nzb (essentially bookmarking it) for later use. The next time MR runs, it checks to see if any of the bookmarks are ready to be processed. Because the schedule delay is only 1, it will now reprocess the nzb (as if it was being discovered for the first time) and see if it should be downloaded. This allows you to delay scheduling of lower quality nzb's in favour of higher quality versions that appear later. If you run MR every 30 minutes and you want to wait 1 full hour before scheduling something, you would set its source delay to 2. If you wanted to wait two hours, you would set the delay to 4.wally007 wrote: ...i'm just wondering whether there's a feature to delay download for XX amount of minutes/hours and then "lock" the file.
As for locking the file, there is currently no support for this. However, by using the quality management system, you can achieve the same thing fairly easily. When setting up quality management, you have to specify two things: a list of acceptable qualities and a desired quality level. Once MR has downloaded an episode that equals the desired quality level, it won't ever attempt to replace the episode. This essentially leaves the episode 'locked'.
Hope that answers you question
