Title: AutoUnrar like AutoUnpack;Download Dirs like Newsleecher
Post by: jp10558 on January 13, 2007, 08:06:16 pm

Is there any way to get the dl directories that are created under the main download directory to use the usenet group name so I don't have 8000 directories named after random things I've dled?

Secondly, can I get the unrared directory to also put stuff in group names, and then an option to use the actual download name? It's not helpful to have an .nfo and .exe (often called setup.exe or something equally non identifiable) or whatever dumped in one main unrar directory.

If this isn't just a combination of settings I've missed, can this be suggested for a new version?

Same request as the above poster, this would be a great addition.

Keep up the great job you are doing on this excellent news reader!

I'll add option for group name to be used (for both downloading & unraring)

I just thought I'd add this minor point here instead of in a new topic: in the Unrar settings, the 'Create subfolder based on NZB name' works basically the same as 'Create subfolder based on download folder name', and therefore is equivalent to AutoUnpack's very handy 'Reconstruct source folder at destination' option.  

Also, manually entering the download folder name, either when adding to the queue or after, is equivalent to Newsleecher's 'Leech - Specify' option, etc.

Flagging up these kinds of equivalencies somewhere might help to make the transition to altbinz a bit easier for some folks. :)
