Okay that all makes sense! Here's some feedback on my first try with it. I have mine set to DATE (not priority). My files were posted RARs first, then the zero par2, then the normal par2s. I selected everything. It started getting the Rars. At this point (it was before my post here) I thought it wou...

Sorry if I have missed some documentation or post on this. But it's a quick question. I'm using the new 2.0, and was wondering how "smart" UE is on what I need to select to download -- and, does a Par2 file need to be one of the first things to download? Say I have (i know there are only 3...

Just to update what I've found with this issue... I have dropped the number of header tasks to one at a time, as you suggested before, and that works 100% of the time. It gets WEST first, then after its done, it gets one of the others, and then the last one. It never shows the problem of missing hea...

Yes I'm sure that it's downloading from the right servers. The reason being I can use Xnews and get just Central's and see missing parts, and then use Xnews and get West, and see completed parts. Same with Newspro if I only use one server. The problem only seems to occur when I use both at the same ...

There is no need -- Central always finishes about 10 times faster than west. This occurred in all the tests that I did including when I was getting the failures. The case where I explained that I get 500 KB/sec vs 50 KB/sec was to let you know that Central finished first (which I never had mentioned...

First, I want to clarify -- I have been using "Open and get new headers", not just "Get new headers". In case you try to reproduce this. ------------------------------------ Now to make things harder, lol, the Central server has caught up with West on the test files we were using...

I tried using the actual IP addresses of the two servers instead of "news.west.cox.net" and "news.central.cox.net" 69.12.19.6 69.6.19.6 I got the same results exactly as Step 3. Showed "central's" results. Seemed to ignore "west's" completed parts. I reset the...

newspro doesn't combine headers, it rather has them combined from the outset. On step 3 (which I deleted everything -- database/registry/etc), I started with nothing, added both servers (central & west) to the list, and did a Get New Headers. It was getting headers from both servers at the same...

I am a Software Engineer, and have a lot of experience tracking down bugs. And I've spent many hours trying to track down exactly what is going wrong with Newspro. Now unless I just do not have a certain option enabled that I need to, I believe I've found a serious bug. I used two servers in my test...
