Ability to set password after a failed unpack

Hi.

And as always, thanks for this great software!


I have one "little" feature request:

For thoose of us that use newzbin, along with any kind of automated tv-show downloading, it's a repeating problem that many usenet uploads are password protected. This results in many of my automated downloads greating me with a "Unpacking failed, archive requires a password " when I come home from work...


It would be great if it would be possible to add a way to type in the password after a download failed because of this, so that it just does the unpacking again.




Could this be something we will see in the future?

There's limited password support now.

Post processor retries are not supported.
They will be after a major redesign, which will take quite some time.

OK. Thanks for your reply.

I'm aware of the password support, and thats great if you know about the password-protection in advance :)

I get my tv-show passwords from www.tvshowpasswords.com/show/passwords

It's a nice database of all the lastest passwords.

Hope it helps

Release 0.6.0 will let you retry post-processing.
