auto-repair in multi par2-collections

[davidq666]

just a little bug (?) i discovered. when u have a collection of multiple par2 under one collection name alt.binz doesn't automaticaly downloads the necessary par2-files. i

it normaly does after ALL unpaused files in that collection are dwnloaded

[davidq666]

ok that's possible but suboptimal coz that mean's i have to do it by hand if incomplete parts are there otherwise the multple par2queue at the end of download and it takes much more time than necessary... especialy since is done just after download except repairing.

ok some possibilies for you:

1. wait until everything is finished

2. split the collection. for example if it's a season of one show do the following:
- open the collection
- type "exx" into the filter, where xx is the last ep in that collection (so you have the right order after doing it)
- now only files from that ep should show up
- select them all and press split
- repeat for all other eps

3. download some blocks per default (see setup -> nzb -> Import as paused: par2 recovery files if size is greater then xx bytes.maybe you still have to start repairing manually while that collection is not finished yet

4. as said by you: unpause blocks manually

5. try importing the files as different collections whenever possible

I do option 2 most of the time if option 5 is not possible and i need the first set asap.

i know...  i use these options most of the time, unless i forget. but importing 20 episodes seperatly or seperating them afterwards is kind of a drag. maybe this should be in requests more than in the bug section... if it's easy to do maybe it get's adjusted...

Heh, I have a powershell script for automatically downloading whole seasons as separate NZBs per ep, because I'm lazy too when it comes to point & click action .

It's not too hard to do.  In fact, if I can do it, then anyone can!   But I agree it would be nice if such things could be integrated in Alt.Binz - quite how, I don't know.
