Is there a way to set it to automatically do that with all imported nzb's? I prefer to have my pars for when sab hiccups. And they are all imported through auto-import or doubleclick.

Yes, change the setting of the "Default" category.
However, when SABnzbd fails to repair it will have downloaded all available files anyway.

Thank you thank you! That's such a weird place to have that setting. I mean, I see now why it's there, but without realizing that it was pretty much invisible to me.

It's only weird if you never thought of using categories.
It used to be somewhere else, but people couldn't find it either :)

If you've found this thread because SABnzbd is leaving off a bunch of PAR2s and your downloads aren't completing, check that you haven't set SABnzbd to not download samples. This setting prevents some PAR2s from being downloaded. The safer setting is to delete after download.

Config > Switches > Post Processing > Ignore Samples
