Just grab a free trial with one of the major news service providers and get ready to install Newsbin. Once you’ve gone through some tutorials, poked around a bit and see what's available, you will be better able to decide which service works best for you. If you are new to this, you probably can't assess what your usage will be. Picking the right service is based on how much and what type of data you will be downloading. If you do not yet have a service, grab a trial account somewhere and be ready to enter your user name and password. Encrypted files without a password will have these symptoms too.Newsbin needs a connection to a news service to get you going. For example sometimes people posts one set of RARS spread over two sets of PARS so only one set of files is counted. If it's happens once in a great while then you might chalk it up to random posting formats that Newsbin doesn't recognize. It doesn't mean much beyond "something is wrong". The fact it downloads PARS every time the retry expires is just sort of a mechanical failsafe. The default action when something goes wrong is to continue to download pars in the hopes that something will work so the fact each PAR is downloaded doesn't mean much. This symptom suggests the unRAR is repeatedly failing or that the PAR block counts never complete. Newsbin downloads all par2 files but it doesn't have to. It is most likely a problem with the par engine. Posts: 44649 Joined: Sat 12:41 am Location: Virginia, US I have to say people posting damaged RAR sets with PARS that can only repair them back to their damaged state is somewhat rare but I've seen it numerous times. It could be that the RAR set is being damaged by the PARS instead of the more typical repair. What you could do is try downloading just the individual bad RARs without the PARs and then use WinRAR to try to unrar them. It's repairing it right back to damaged state. The download is fine but since the repair information is for pre-damaged files, the repair information doesn't help. This happens if someone generates a PAR set over a bad RAR set. Another error message that comes up sometimes is that there is a missing rar file on the end of the sequence when quickpar says a repair is not needed. That's what I get - quickpar says that a repair is not needed but when winrar runs inside NBPro it gets the crc error message from one of the rar files. Just tested the set on 6.73RC2, no change. Your par2 engine is reading the data files, but if your par2 engine has the same source, maybe that could explain the hanging set. Quickpar is reading the par2 blocks and stops, flickering, not reading the data files. Just tested my old Quickpar 0.9.1 on the set. Multipar says all files are complete, no repair needed. Just downloaded the set again and it still hangs. This time only with the one par2 file without blocks so I could see, if the rar files were completeĪnd correct or Newsbin had to download the par2 files with blocks. Multipar says all rar files and all par2 files are complete and correct (10855 data blocks and 1086 par2 blocks). Maybe Newsbin counts the *.sfv file as a data file, but 10724 seems to be wrong. Thats 10855 blocks in 83 files and not 10724 in 84. Then Nothing more happens, the set hangs.īeside that, there are 82 full rar files with 131 blocks each and the last shorter rar file had 113 blocks. D:84 DL:0 Retry:0 N:10 (N: is counting down to zero and starts the loop with 10) I closed Newsbin and opened it again and this is, what happens in the Status column: (I then tried the setting "Automatically UnRAR Complete Files" = on, but Newsbin also didn't unrar the set. There was no password needed for the rar set and the set was hanging too. Now I had "Automatically UnRAR Complete Files" = off (so a missing password should be irrelevant) and "Remove repaired but, not unrared sets in the download list" = on, (An error message would be helpful in that case.) Sometimes the reason was, the rar set needed a password for unpacking. In those cases, Newsbin was also downloading all available par2 files, which was not needed as all rar files were complete. From time to time I have hanging complete downloads in Newsbin.
