If anyone wants help with that I can do it via teamviewer.

Just curious why the need for teamviewer?  Any chance of just instructions on how to fix this?

Fair enough, I'm out of country until mid next week, I'll hit you up then for a fix when I get back to my desktop.

It just appears that it's stuck on the "decoding" process if you examine the following 2 screenshots.  They were taken once the downloading was complete and the status bar disappears.  When I expand the NZB subject, you can see it says decoding but nothing is happening.  When I restart the application, it all of a sudden starts decoding:

I have exactly the same problem. Tried different versions. There is no encoding until a restart of Alt.Binz. Very weird. Never had any problems ...

I'm back home now but I guess that offer is off the table??  Sounds like several are experiencing this problem.  Any further updates?

I've have the same problem for a few weeks now. Hopefully there will be an update soon. That's annoying when you always have to quit alt.binz and restart it.

It's been quiet on this issue for awhile now.  Any updates 'admin', anyone?

I have tried different versions but decoding just doesn't work anymore. The program is unusable for me at the moment. The strange thing is that it has always worked great! The different versions of the program have not changed. Could it be a Windows update that is causing the malfunction? Just my 2 cents...

The same by me....DL is starting...the files are decoding...inside the TEMP-Folder there are a lot of subfolders....after finishing the DL and decoding.....alt.binz stops .. nothing happens...not repairing or unpacking. After closing alt.binz and restarting alt.binz the last final process is starting (reparing & unpacking).

I have used alt.binz release 0.44.01 and 0.46.05 (which i normally use) to solve the problem. nothing helped. very strangely :/

The problem is that I cannot reproduce decoding problem myself. My main download machine is on win7 that hasn't been updated for at least 6-7 months. Development machine is on win10 that gets updated regularly. Both do not have problem with decoding.
Most of you are on win10 I pressume, but I've seen the problem on win8(.1?) machine.

I have tried 0.46.0.5; 0.44.0.1 and 0.43.0.2. ... the same results: to complete the final process (repair and unpack), alt.binz must be closed and restarted.

My System: WIN10 x64 / actual updated until today.

I dont know what I can do...the DL is starting....decoding is working from file to file ... the "status" has 0 percent - although 30% of all files are already downloaded.

A little bit confusing.

You mean decoding is not working?
