Title: Unrar/par help needed
Post by: HenkyDoodle on March 21, 2008, 08:31:58 pm

Hi there,

i have used 0.25 version for quite some time now with full satisfaction. Till three days ago.. My tab where the rar/par files are queued up stays empty. I have tried many things, but no succes.  :( Is this maybe a known problem.If so, could anyone give me some tips?

Is the small par2 file being downloaded to the same directory as the .rars?  Are you able to import the small par2 manually?  What does your log report? etc.

Are you on Vista?  Did you update recently? etc.

Im on Xp, I did not update anything, it just happened overnight I think. The log doesnt report any probs.. It just won't queue the file in the unrar tab. It's totally empty.. but I can import the samll par2 if I try.

Just tested here with a fresh install of 0.25.0 on XP, and everything's working fine: entry appears on par2 tab with Unrar icon visible, downloads and unrars no problem.

So either you need to check your settings again, try different NZBs, try re-installing (copy altbinz.exe to new folder and launch from there), or find out what's changed on your system that may be interfering with Alt.Binz.

Nope, not beyond the usual.  I was just wondering whether SP1 might have been the problem, but it doesn't look like it. :)
