Import as Paused - SFV files
« on: August 26, 2008, 05:19:25 pm »
Hi,

I would love an option to auto-pause SFV files when importing an NZB -- with the spread of par2 files, I don't particularly find them useful and they clutter my downloads folder.  I realize there is an option to delete them after unRAR'ing, but I think not downloading them in the first place could help as well.

I think this should be pretty easy to implement alongside the other "import as paused" options on the NZB options page.  Thoughts?

problem with that option is about 50% of all par2 sets heve the sfv in them.

That means, Alt.binz would have to repair 50% of all downloads and that means using CPU ressources and that is alo not that good for your hdd.

Just activate the option you mentioned. That will cause less problems for you actually.

Ah, didn't realize that -- guess I'll stick with the existing option then.  Thanks!

I prefer this earlier version of the request:

Bearing in mind what cr4zyfr4g said about files typically included in PAR2 sets.
