Failed Download (not enough blocks)

Post by thebro »

Hi,

I seem to get a fairly high number of failed nzbs and was wondering if anyone might have an idea of where to start to find the problem?

Version: 0.7.0
OS: Windows 7 (64-bit)
Install-type: Windows Installer
Skin (if applicable): Plush - Gold
Firewall Software: None
Are you using IPV6? no
Is the issue reproducible? (yes/no) yes

Most downloads work, but some files just don't seem to want to work. I'm on usenetserver.com with a block account from newsdemon.com as a backup server (which I thought would resolve the issue, but it doesn't seem to help). The actual nzb I'm trying to download is "Blabla.S03E03.720p.HDTV.X264-DIMENSION". Can anyone test this to see if it's the file or my set up?

The backup server is owned by the same company as the primary. Both providers removed 4.5% of the data at the request of the content owner.

So if I get a different backup server, that would help? Any suggestions for a good backup server then?
