repairing failed sabnzb files

Post by Saltman »

Can someone please help me on the steps I have to do to repair failed nzb downloads? I have quickpar and winrar. I recently have a failed with 29 failed blocks. The file sits in my incomplete folder. I'm pretty new to working with nzb's so you have to be detailed with me. I understand the concepts of what is going on but don't know a whole lot about using quickpar. I also understand I can find any of the broken pieces by searching. I just need to understand how to do it(reparing that is)

QuickPar isn't going to help you when there isn't enough data available.
In some cases of very obscure naming, QuickPar might be a little cleverer than SABnzbd.
Check the download report, if it also says that a lot of articles were missing,
you'd better give up and try another NZB.
(Click on History item to see the download report.)
