I still have an old server in my settings, from a company that no longer excists. When I try to delete that server entry, NL crashes and doesn't recover. The programm needs to be killed hard and then I'll cancel the error reporting to Microsoft ;-)

I change the folder for the download by right clicking on it, and that works fine.
But when it's unrarring, it is putting the files in my original download folder, and not in my custom folder where i changed it to.
How do I change that?

Thanks

When I use Leech Specify (CTRL+Y) and specify a sub folder it will create the sub folder and place the archives within the specified sub folder. However, when it extracts it moves the extracted files to the default Download Folder. Whereas in previous versions it would both download and extract to...

First time anything on my new pc ever runs out of memory (usually followed by a series of dialogues with data error , oh and a range check rror for good measure).

When re-searching a bookmarked term with Hide Seen enabled I am typically finding that this is ignored and so you have a combination of green new posts, and white existing. A toggle of hide seen does then filter correctly.

I think since Beta 3 or so this changed. It used to download each NZB to a subfolder of the NZB filename, but now they all get imported/downloaded to the same folder no matter what.
I can't tell if this is meant to work this way or not, but it makes virtually impossible to tell which rar files...

When downloading article (sets) that have already been (incorrectly) marked as spam, NL starts giving me this message and effectively reducing my download speed from its normal 120Mbps to around 45-50Mbps.

This is NOT a drive issue, since NL can often download many, many GB of data at full speed...

I typically expect to find between zero and two new things downloaded by Superleech when I get home from work. Today there were 3,926 and exactly ZERO were things that I was actually searching for. Also, Superleech showed only 4 matches but somehow still had over 1,000 items still QUEUED for...

Would like to have this fixed sometime soon...

It is important to have the scrambled name displayed in the Unpacker Tab so that the Leeched item Scrambled/Unscrambled name can be easily compared and identified.

Unpacker Tab apparently sorts by SCRAMBLED name(?) not UNSCRAMBLED name when PAR2 File Set column title is clicked.

Hello Everyone

Is it just me, but I have had the need to use any file management option from within newsleecher.I just use the normal File explorer from within windows auto clicker , which I tend to have open all the time.Mine is unticked so isn't shown.Could it be removed if no-one is using it?...

This happens quite often. Manually un-pausing the par files doesn't trigger a refresh, and the set is only re-evaluated when a manual Refresh is performed from the Unpacker tab, at which point a repair will go ahead if sufficient parity is present.

Hi all,

All I am trying to do is extract the archive under the same folder that the download was created.

However, I keep getting could not create destination folder - what do I put in the extraction target to make it extract to the same folder?

SuperBrowse only returns ~90 days? This is in all groups I try it in.

I download headers for a group to browse and no headers show after they are downloaded?

Unable to open tempory download file.

I already had this with the first beta version. I thought a bug that will be fixed later. I have removed the first beta and reinstalled the Final 7.0. But with V8.0 Beta 3 I still have the same problem

When I am downloading, I get this error message after...

I have V8b4 and cannot see how to change the number of download sessions (connections/bots) it seems to only use one where earlier versions used four - in my case anyway.
Thanks

Currently using v8b5 UFR 2 - below is applicable to previous versions as well.

As noted in my previous posts - After creating and using a FRESH data folder with NewsLeecher, I am getting almost no errors - very occasionally get the getDownloadFolder932 and very occasionally get stuck downloads -...

The de-obfusticator seems to be adding a trailing space to the filenames, resulting in things like:
long.movie.file.name .mkv
This isn't a huge problem, since I need to rename everything anyway, but it just seems odd. Is there some logic/reason why this is being done or is it just a mistake?

Bug ID:
getDownloadFolder932

Bug Data #1:

This is an EXTREMELY annoying error - occurring less frequently, but still EXTREMELY ANNOYING!!!!!!

Occurs when unpack starts or in that part of the download/unpack process timeline.

I decided to upgrade from v7 Final to Beta 8.4 but it will not allow me to register, and it's not extracting either.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I have reinstalled, clean installed and a clean install on another system all with the same issues.

Articles are not collated in the supersearch window in v8b# mousing over the entries shows some info but its an awkward and slow process to see is the if what you are downloading is a rar archive set, a par set or just an nzb or nfo.

if a post is cross-posted to multiple groups NL8b5 make a destination folder with all of the groups names if the tag <Group> is used in the destination folder.

Just a suggestion.

If I try to do a search, and NL can't connect to the SuperSearch service, I get an error message:

OK. that's fine. There's nothing wrong with that. But then, when I click on OK, I get another message:

Is it really necessary to have 2 error messages?

In NL 7.0 Supersearch results can easily be filtered by entering one or more items into a filter box (on the Supersearch tab) which conveniently allows one to drill down to the exact content one is looking...

Hello crew

Why did you release NL Beta 8 at all, has no testing been done from a beta user group.
Whilst NL 7 was working very fine, why did you introduce NL 8 at all since I can't really appreciate any new features.
Is NL 7 still working with the current SS Engine, if so I happily downgrade...

Hello all, has somebody issues with the download speed after installing newsleecher in windows 10 ? The speed will not get higher than 1 Mbps :(

Thanks

Using V8 beta4:

1) There should be a way to have a persistent command line program set up. Currently, you have to enable it at each download, it gets old.

2) %nl_default_download_folder% sends literally A:\a.b.h\<NAME>\ without substituting <NAME>, which is useless

3)...

If the windows 10 taskbar is set to 'autohide' and NL is run at full screen, the taskbar does not reappear as it normally does when the mouse cursor is moved to the bottom of the screen: NL obscures it completely.

If NL is run windowed the taskbar behaves normally.

If the taskbar 'autohide'...

Hi,

With NL7, it's possible to set it so that importing a {name}.nzb file downloads into {download default folder}/{name}.

I could not find a way to do that with NL8, it always download into {download default folder}.

Am I missing something obvious, or is it a feature not yet implemented...

NL7 uses the new directory dialog will all your favorites to import an NBZ file.

NL8 reverted for that to the old XP dialog. I'm sure it's just an oversight, it would be nice using the new dialog to go into the todo list.

When unpacking into subfolders it the posting has special chars like quote it will fail to create the folder. These need to be filtered out like the older version 7 did. It get around the bug you have to un-check the subfolder option.

I have a SABnzbd and Sickbeard setup that has been running great for a couple of years now and would not trade it for anything. I am going to give NZBget and Sonarr a go as I have heard good things.

No matter how I have tried the spam detection settings, passworded RAR files are ALWAYS flagged as spam (by SuperSearch) requiring me to manually resume each one individually.

My spam detection settings are:

I tried to download entire group list and NL yielded zero groups and deleted all the groups I had previously.

Greetings,
I just installed Beta 8.3, been using V7 for years. Can't figure out why I keep getting this error when trying to download using the <Group> parameter (see attached JPG). I have checked and my Download Folder parameter is E:\Reap_Down\<Group>\ and my Unpack Folder is blank....

Where do I find the mythical reset button on the Supersearch toolbar?
