UE saves separate parts of files sometimes, does not combine

[tijgert]

With some NZB's UE will save (for example) a 100 part RAR file in 100 little files and not save it as one file.
Other programs save the file in 1 file, but UE sometimes does not.
This leaves a random 8Gig movie in thousands of small files.

I can't figure out why, it's a new problem that suddenly arises and I haven't changed a setting in UE for over half a year.

What can it be?

PM me an example I would look at it.

There is a problem with yenc format:

=ybegin part=11 total=131 line=128 size=768000 name=...
=ypart begin=7680001 end=8448001

The "size" field is wrong, it should be the whole file size, not the part size.

It is even wrong size if it was intended to be the part size since 8448001-7680001+1 = 768001 and not 768000.

I need to check how I can address that in the code.

Sounds plausible.
Would ignoring he size in any way hinder the normal operation of UE? If so, then perhaps make it a switch in the settings to ignore it or have UE autodetect this funky kind of NZB and automatically do the right thing. I'm sure UE can be taught that no one wants 12.000 small files

Glad you're picking this up so seriously though. It's been going on for a while using Spotnet and was driving me insane at times because I wouldn't find it out until moving the files to storage and by then it would've been DMCA'd already.

It should work in v4.9.4
