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.

so I can only...

Hello,

I am seeking par2 command line guidance but please accept my apologies if this is not the correct forum. I have struggled to find a suitable forum.

I am using a batch file on a Windows 10 computer to scan a folder structure up to three deep and to create par2 files in each folder just...

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).

I've got 32GB, of which 28GB is free.

supersearch broken again? 4 hours with no new results?? come on guys...lets start to monitor this pig

Using new 8.0 beta versions I cannot search by group or poster any more.

Using the latest beta version as of today if I download files the unpacker is unable to add the files to an existing directory. I simply get an error message could not create dest. folder and the downloaded parts remain...

Hello,

I have been using an older version of Newsleecher for quite some time (version 4.0 final, which is really old, I know). But recently I moved to another PC, but when trying to run it, it does not show the main window and is consuming 100% of one processor. Could be something with the...

NL 7.0 Final, Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

I have a handful of saved searches in Bookmarks.

Lately, when hitting Count I'm getting a non-zero result for one, but when I click on the bookmarked search, I get No search matches were found.

More often than not, if I perform a manual search on the...

Hi,

is it possible to move the Cache-Directory to another drive?
Reason I'm asking is, that I want to keep the clutter of my OS-Drive.

Would like to have this fixed sometime soon...

Numerous x265 posts have been made in the past 1 to 2 days. (UPDATE: past 5 days)

Unobfuscated/Unscrambled headers NOT showing in SuperSearch???????

UPDATE:

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.

That said I cannot completely give up my old Usenet habits for whatever reasons. Some groups are...

v8b5 UFR2 News24 yields ZERO x265 results

V.7 final (SuperSearching for x265) also yields results missing a huge number of x265 posts last 4 days.

Seeing very few results in general since midday 7 Feb 2020.

Example: unobfuscated/unscrambled posts containing x264-FIGJAM (also just searching for FIGJAM) not showing up when searched - Posted 4.5 days ago - hundreds of posts between now and 1-2 years ago not showing in search results.

I keep getting this application error popup:

If I click OK, it goes away and immediately returns. After a couple hundred attempts to make it go away, I started this post and while I was typing, NL exited (while the pop-up was displayed.)

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

Dear Santa,

Give me a book about C++/C#/Python and explain to me the way newgroups work and how people behave around them. And make it possible for me to download Fruityloops and Ableton so that I can make music and become famous. And last but not least: Make some hot chick fall in love with...

v8 beta 4 crashes when downloading headers for a subscribed group that already has 72,000,000 headers in it stored in the app. You guys have never managed to fix this problem and bug reports from NL itself have been sent in with error codes. I really wish you guys would fix this pesky problem.

Hey all, long time user here just getting very frustrated lately.

Everything I try to download and I mean everything (from supersearch and individual groups if it matters) is returning log messages about checksum errors...

Different groups, different posters it doesn't matter. Now this is...

Now seems that Supersearch stopped indexing after july 9th, 12:00 pm CEST.
It doesn't show any posts after that. Can someone help me with this.

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

V8b5 UFR 2

Anytime (quote mark) is added to search box or attempt to edit search containing quotes get error:

Bug ID:

Bug Data #2:

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.

Helicon_Focus_Pro

above is cros-posted and the folder ends up with this name alt.binaries.boneless, alt.binaries.ftd,...

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?

Hi
I fully understand that maintenance on the SS engine is needed, but in the last couple of weeks this is happening mostly every day or 2 days. The downtime is usually around 2-3 hours and not a couple of minutes as the popup window claims.
Can't you just have a second SS DB which users are...

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'...

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.

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:

But I still get spam reports like this:...

Normally when a supersearch completes with no results, I see this (with or without the Hide seen box checked):
NoMatch.png

If only old results are returned and I check the Hide seen checkbox I see this:

But what does it mean when the search results window is simply completely...

For me, this most important search feature that is missing from SuperSearch & SuperLeech is the ability to specify that a string must NOT be part of a larger string, i.e. whole word match required. While searching for one word titles can still be problematic, at least eliminating all of the...

this morning i downloaded the latst version of neewsleecher just to test it out, coz i loved using it back in the days,.. ;)

but unfortunately every single file which was downloaded, was corrupted :-/

I check exactly the same nzb (so to say th same download files) with SabNZBd and Newsbin and...

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

I *think* it happened after I installed V8 beta4 on a different folder, but now, if I pause NL for 10 minutes for example, I don't see the countdown and it stay paused forever.

Edit: I have installed on 2 PCs (one is a backup, I use it only on one at a time), and that does not happen on the...

Overall 8.4 is working fine and has fixed any download folder saving. The one thing I've noticed is that I have to disconnect and reconnect the server.

This seems to occur when the subject contains spaces. If I right click the destination in the unpacker, the quotes disappear and the correct path displays. Clicking ok allows the extract to continue properly.

Example: Repair & Extract could not create destination folder:...

Whatever I dl the unpacker always says Could not to create dest.folder . I changed the unpack folder several time but no good news. Can someone help me out?

Hi

I just updated my internet speed to 500 MB/sec and my usenet provider to 300 MB/sec and noticed that the speed from Newsleecher v7.0 final is limited to +/- 150 MB/sec.

I then installed Newsleecher 8.0 beta 3 and I got the correct download speed, +/- 300 MB/sec.

Can anyone explain this...

I have noticed that my downloads will stop, and so far with Beta3 not as frequently , but I still get this error, which means you have to babysit your downloads most of the time. (This only started in Version 8 of NL).

Download Pause While Repair & Extract set to TRUE still prevents downloading.

These are nice ideas but I have a question and an idea.

Question: Is there a timeline on when these will actually start to work? All they do is produce a 'no results found' message.

Idea: Since there are dedicated buttons for these searches I don't think they should be added to the Recent...

Hi everybody,

since a moved NL 8 to a new computer with a i9 processor, I got every seconds a lot of :

One item to discuss that I noticed in beta 2 and now in beta 3 is that partial/incomplete articles do not persist when submitting a new search. I know in prior releases if a download was only partially posted it would stay in the list of subsequent searches even if the show old was not selected....

Hi,

I made a backup of v7 Final, did a clean install for 8 Beta3, copied the backup.

As I can read there are some problems with the Password Manager, not recognizing the passwords.

I noticed that the newly inserted passwords are recognized, so no problem there.
My 'old' passwords are not...

Hi,

I will probably have to wait longer then 25th of December for this present but hope it will be considered in a future version. :D

Just came from v7 Final and tried the Beta3. Had to get used to the new interface a little but I have to say, I like it.
My compliments to the hole team!...

Hello,

Thank you for your work on V8 :)
I like the new unscrambled auto-rename destination folder feature when using <subject> tag.

I found two issues in the superLeech interface :
1.
When adding/editing an entry, it's missing the icon to open the advanced search query builder window...

When I search for group:alt.binaries.magic I get 6 results, although there are many more.
When I search for group: alt.binaries.magic (note the added space) I get 1 result only.
Searching for a Poster gets even more strange results. These searches worked fine until recently.

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.

That said I cannot completely give up my old Usenet habits for whatever reasons. Some groups are...
