How do I know which 'misnamed' files are missing?

Hello,

If you are familiar with hidden posts in Usenet (such as rapidoor) then you know that the files posted on Usenet bear a wrong filename that is corrected by running Quickpar or by UE while showing in the Unpack tab.
Those files, since we don't know their correct filename beforehand, are selected and downloaded using an nzb file.
So I suppose that:
- the nzb knows the list of misnamed filenames
- the PARs know the relation between the misnamed file and its real name

Now my problem is:
- I ran my nzb file and selected the files to download via UE
- After it has finnished downloading there still are 90 files missing (probably that they weren't posted yet when I started my selection/download)
- I don't know how to find out which files are missing because:
> UE points to the missing files by their real name
> the missing files are posted on Usenet "intentionally" misnamed

Complicated uh?

Thanks

I don't see why UE wouldn't download or keep trying to download all files as long as the NZB had a listing of all files, even if the file names later ware altered by repairing.

Your link needed a login so I was not able to read it.

Do you have an example posting that shows the problem?
