2 questions - nzbs and timeleft
« on: October 19, 2007, 04:37:13 pm »
hey guys
been looking through the forums and guides  and havent found the answer to these:
2 small questions -
1. when i load an nzb , and collapse it i can see all the different files saying under STATUS : "OK" but this doesnt always mean that the file is there - since ive downloaded nzbs that specific files were in "ok" status but when it reached that file in the que i received the error " article not availabale" - so the question is : is there a way to check that all the files in the nzb are actually posted b4 downloading ? or i have to hope they are there ?

second question is there a way to show a "time left counter" for each nzb compilation ?

cheers for the help !  :wink:

1) No idea...
2) If you press Ctrl+T (or rightclick and select 'ETA on selected') the 'Time Left' in the statusbar (and in the Window Titlebar if applicable) will switch to the time left for the selected collection.

1) No, because this depends on the server you are connecting to, i.e. your own newsgroup provider.  The 'OK' only indicates that the indexing site believes everything was uploaded properly by the poster to the servers that it monitors, which may not include your provider's.

2) Zeikzeil said it. :)

about the eta - im using the 0.25.0 version - i made sure there are more then 2 nzb in the que - i right clicked on 1 file - no options ofr ETA for this file aand also press ctrl-t - didnt change a thing - also trried right clicking on the stoper downbottom - can any1 send a pic ?
this might sound like a newbie question - but simultanious downloads isnt possible right ? or is it and then only the eta setting shows up ?

so it depends really what kinda file it is and how old it is and popularity for the file , aye ?  just gotta try and make the right call :D
