PAR2 Tab suggestions

[drudge]

a few things that I'd like to see in the PAR2 Tab:

- re-check individual files (sometimes a single file shows as missing, even if it's there and Quickpar sees & verifies it just fine)

- stop par2 verification (if you need to delete a par2 set that's currently verifying, you have to wait for it to finish checking the entire set.. this is not the same as the existing option to stop the repairing process)

- display par2 set using NZB name (not on disk, just within the program)

I second the second suggestion you gave. Very annoying that it has to complete checking before you can delete it.

First, by "NZB name" I assume you mean collection name. It may be the same name as the NZB, but may not be. Anyway, a given collection name can have multiple par2 sets in it. For instance, I can do a search on "Sausages.S01*" on newzleech and queue up all episodes from the first season to one "Sausages.S01.xvid.hdtv" collection. However, the program will correctly create a separate par2 tab entry for each episode. How would this be displayed if your request is implemented? You don't want to just see the same collection name over and over. I'm thinking that it might make sense to leave the par2 tab as it currently is and either have a pop-up or a column showing the associated collection name. RDL would have to be careful, though, to make sure it carries over if the collection is renamed, etc.

Hmm have you been peeking at *my* download queue or smth? It's sausages here btw

Or set the entry to "collection name + par filename".

Or give the par list an extra node. Like:

sausages

I especially like to request the first 2 of Drudge's suggestions

Please be sensible and remember that this is a public forum, keep your posts general.

Can I make a request for additional functions of a
- Stop PAR2 checking
- Recheck PAR2
for one/several item(s) that I select in the PAR2 tab and right click

I'd like to add a suggestion, a pause or stop function if the par2 tab is unrarring something.

0.27.2
...
+ Pause download while repairing and/or unraring (setup->Download #2) (default off)

[swibbib]

Maybe he means a pause function for the rar-process?

Anyway, I especially like the first suggestion, as this for some reason happens to me quite regularly!

[cr4zyfr4g]

+1 on the pause or abort par2 checking in par2 tab so that you can delete the entry for example
