Multiple download queues
« on: February 26, 2011, 02:08:27 PM »
I currently have about 220 collections in my queue, any new nzb's I import go straight to the bottom, becomes quite tedious scrolling through my large queue.

It would be very useful to have the option to add multiple queues to store collections that I don't want to download right away (due to hard drive space concerns etc).

In this scenario, by far the best option is to download the NZBs and store them in a separate folder, then load them up when you need them.

You know what, that didn't even cross my mind. Export to multiple just saved my life :)

Thank you Hecks.

Export to Multple NZBs on queue items is indeed a neglected lifesaver. ;)

Although this is a nice workaround, I'd also prefer multiple download queues, it's probably not that hard to implement and it would be a considerable timesaver.

I'd like to add my request for the option for multiple queues please - even if an external extra tool was used to create multiple queue.idx files if that is easier to implement initially

I find I'm being swamped by multiple copies of files from multiple indexers and my queue is growing at an astronomical rate.

The ability to switch between several queues might help alleviate the problem I am currently experiencing where my queue grows so large it exceeds the 2GB memory limit and causes Alt.binz's to fail.

Since updating to Windows 10 x64 Fall Creators Update, I am now seeing " System Error.  Code 998.  Invalid access to memory location " which I assume is directly related when my queue size causes memory usage to exceed 2GB when the application first starts.

I always have older nzb files I want to download, but exporting to nzb creates a brand new nzb file, and thus when I import them back into alt.binz, the age of the nzb is related to when I exported the nzb, not the actual date of the original post.

Thanks in advance.
