I've run across a few nzbs lately that sabnzbd completes with no errors, but the resulting output is not usable.
They are typically whole season blue ray rips from a group called ROVERS.
The resulting output contains 100s of files with names like:
137530-0.0
137530-0.0.1
137530-0.0.2
137530-0.0.3
137530-0.0.4
137530-0.0.5
137530-0.0.6
137530-0.0.7
137530-0.0.9
137530-0.1
137530-0.1.1
137530-0.1.2
137530-0.10
137530-0.10.1
137530-0.10.2
137530-0.11
137530-0.11.1
137530-0.11.2
137530-0.12
137530-0.12.1
137530-0.12.2
137530-0.13
137530-0.13.1
137530-0.13.2
...
They don't appear to be rars or playable video files or anything like that.
I have SABnzbd Version: 0.7.17
Any idea how to deal with these?
Thanks

Re: Whole season packs problems
It looks like the posters chose to use the same file names for different episodes.
Currently SABnzbd cannot handle this, especially because it has a bit of an awkward way of
renaming duplicate file names.

Re: Whole season packs problems
Do you know how to manually unpack these posts?
The data all seems to be there I just can't make sense of any of the file names.

Re: Whole season packs problems
Install WinRAR and let it have it a go at it.
Direct it to the first RAR file of a set.

Re: Whole season packs problems
I'm running on mac so Winrar is not an option. I have a feeling it would choke too though as the problem is really knowing what file is what.
I have identified a few files that look like the first rar of an episode, but there is no obvious way to identify the 2nd, 3rd, 4th file etc...
On closer inspection some of the files seem to contain text with a hint, mapping sensible file names to hashes.
E.g. (redacted show name):
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r00 e05b9693
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r01 c4ba9c5d
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r02 c248b409
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r03 41538c43
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r04 189dff39
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r05 29d6fbfe
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r06 a62960da
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r07 4a267600
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r08 25963e93
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r09 08428eec
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.r10 18efe54a
show.name.s16e13.1080p.bluray.x264-rovers.rar d0afbff1
If I have time later in the week might try to script something together and see if I can match the hashes and rename these to something more meaningful. If I have success will let you know, maybe you could integrate it into sabs post processing.
