Get all par2 files and then start to repair and extract

[groentebroer]

Hi All,

I am on a slow system with SabNZB and what I find out now with large NZB's with multiple different rars, with multiple par2 files, it takes forever to complete.
For 1, sabnzbd or par2 checks every file in the folder for every par2 action, which takes very long, if we are talking about 100MB files in an NZB of 120GB.

But when sabnzbd thinks it can be repaired, but it does not have all par2 files yet, this process is done twice for all files and sometimes even more.

The question is:
Is there an option to download all par2 files and then directly try to repair?

I saw the never_repair option, which will download all par2 files, but it will not repair....

Any ideas?

The method will be changed on the next major release.
Currently is less than ideal.

Thanks ShyPyke, for your response.

Any ETA on the next major version? (or BETA?)

Thanks!

First Alpha should arrive before the end of the year.
It may be a bumpy road due to the large number of changes.

Thanks, no worries for the bumpy road, that's the risk of using Alpha or Beta!
