Hi,

The deletion of samples has been changed in version 2.3.9 as per the change log. But now I get lots of sample files. Would it be possible to make it optional to delete the files again as before so that the user can decide to automatically remove all the files with sample in the name or not?

Thanks,
Erik

I've started to get samples coming back too. The above would be useful.

Could you send me example NZBs where you are getting too many samples?
It should only not delete them if all files contain the word "sample" or "proof" or in case there's only 1 file.

Hi Safihre,

I have emailed you at your personal email address at sabnzbd dot org some NZBs that cause sample files not to be deleted.

Regards,
Erik

Hi safihre,

I've emailed you one as well.

Found the issue with your NZB's.
Bad testing on my part, didn't test the case with just 1 sample file.

Thanks for fixing it!

Thanks from me too :-)

Sorry for bumping this thread, but what was the fix for this? I'm on latest release (2.3.9) and I'm experiencing this problem. Do I have to build from source to get the fix?

There's no release yet that includes that commit though.

I see. Successfully installed from source and sample deletion does indeed seem to be working again. I read the first post too fast, didn't notice this "bug" was introduced in 2.3.9 so I guess simply downgrading to 2.3.8 for the time being would be a lot more convenient.

Thank you very much.

hey can someone tell me how i can install this fix?

It will be in the next release of SABnzbd!
