So I have a 98 day old file and there's something like 180 missing blocks, and all the PAR2 files are damaged. I can't find the same file anywhere, is there any hope?

The pHo posted:Glad I've got most of them set for xbmc to read metadata from the HDD rather than tvdb now! This interests me. Do you mean .nfo files pointing to IMDB, or all the information (IMDB, movie covers, fanart, etc) all stored on the HDD? I'm curious as to how that works. Maybe post in the XBMC thread, as it would be off-topic here.

Isn't Newzbin the NZP that basically advertised, "WE HAVE ILLEGAL CONTENT FOR FREE, COME DOWNLOAD IT!" and got their rear end handed to them because everyone in the court knew they were actively facilitating copyright infringement?

NZBMatrix were undergoing some updates the other day, but that wouldn't be the cause of being unable to access the site. The internet likes to do that sometimes, just visit the site later and it should be up.

skyydude posted:A Supernews tech told me that I get auto-connected to the closest server no matter what address I use. And, they do still have an HK server, it's just not advertised on their site for some reason.  These speeds are unbelievable. At the beginning of this year, I was downloading at 700kb/s, now the infrastructure's been upgraded .. 1.7mb/s.

ohgodwhat posted:Is newzbin really not worth paying for? The other places I've gone, like NZB.su and NZBsRUs just look like poo poo and seem pretty poorly run. I never got that impression from Newzbin, so if Newzbin does the same exact stuff and doesn't suck, I'd rather pay for it. NZBMatrix is pretty cool, it's what I use.

xlevus posted:So I've moved from NZ's lovely 160GB monthly caps and DSL to the UKs unlimited 50/100Mbit "holy loving poo poo why didn't I move 6 years ago?" cable and subsequently realised that blocknews no longer fits my needs. 160GB? Hot drat, the household (NZ) is only on 90GB and we're paying out of the rear end for this poo poo.  Since you're in Europe, nothing is a problem. Just go for the cheapest of the big ones. Supernews would be fine.

GobiasIndustries posted:Hmm..the modem I don't mind paying for/using theirs, but the actual installation fee might be a bit steep right now.. Sounds great. Might be worth talking to the fraternity member responsible for the internet and talk to him about the company, as well as doing research (i.e. Googling). Can never be too cautious!

Cwapface posted:Is it normal for automatic unpacking of big files (say 10GB) to choke the poo poo out of your system? I'm running an i5 2500 with 4GB of PC10600 and my system is just totally unusable while a big file is being extracted after download, even though nothing else of any note is going on. If I was extracting a .rar of the same size manually, I wouldn't notice any slowdown. Yeah, for some reason the big files just kill my system. It's gotten to the point where I'd rather unpack the files manually rather than being all "why so slow, bad computer! oh ..."

BlackRider posted:I feel like I must be missing something obvious here. Is there no button in SABnzbd that lets you open the folder your files are being downloaded to? Or a way to launch the file you've downloaded? It seems like I just have to browse to it manually through Windows Explorer, seems disconnected. Yep. No button. Unless you set up some script to automatically open the directory upon completion.

How exactly can SOPA/PIPA kill Usenet? Can you Yanks really just shut down the servers? Or is it some sort of DNS block (which is easily bypassed)?

Naes posted:I think I will bite the bullet and get access to usenet to see what its all about; I havent used newsgroups for at least 10 years, back when they were all provided free by ISPs Same poo poo different pile, yes. I'd get a main account from the OP. Supernews is what I use, and would recommend. Haven't had any problems with them, but YMMV. And have a block plan for backup, just in case there's an incomplete. Mine's Astraweb but I haven't used it in a while so take a look at Blocknews as well.

Quoted from OP:quote:Do you download less than 92Gb/mo? If you're planning on exceeding 92GB/month on a consistent basis, then get one of the unlimited plans. EDIT: The OP was made some time ago, so have a look at the block plans ... work out some $/GB math.

Strat posted:That equation is great but when you actually buy an unlimited plan you end up downloading far more stuff that you wouldn't have downloaded on a blockplan. Yeah, I originally had a block account when I started out with Usenet. Then I swapped over to an unlimited plan with block backup. My usage varies by quite a bit, but in the heavy bandwidth months, I am thankful that I'm on an unlimited plan.

^^ Sucks to hear about Supernews. I've been using them quite often (150GB avg per month) and I only have something like 100MB on my Astraweb block account for when Supernews is missing pieces. That 100MB is from the last year or so though.

I download a variety of stuff, 0-1000+ day articles and it's really rare that I run into issues. I don't venture much into the older archives though, mostly the stuff I want is usually reposted.

Nask26 posted:My home server died yesterday and I was wondering if you guys had any recommendations on a small hopefully cheap box that will run sab/sb and share files over a network. I only have a single drive so I was thinking a synology 112.What are you guys using? There's a thread for this. But to answer your question, most of prebuilt NAS companies (Synology/Thecus/Qnap) are great for the job. Shagsta posted:Astraweb is a tier one provider based out of the Netherlands. Why would an American law have any bearing on them? They may have servers based in the States, but I doubt it ...

I downloaded a 35GB archive with about 15 big files all in their own RARs. It downloaded successfully, yet when I unpack it, all 15 display CRC errors. EDIT: Okay, a bunch of other files I downloaded around the same time are also displaying CRC errors. I have no idea what is happening.

Mthrboard posted:Try searching for the individual files on binsearch or another raw search engine, they may have their own PAR sets. If you can't find them, and you still have the big archive, and you have enough free space on a different hard drive, try extracting it there. I had the same problem once, and it turned out my drive had bad sectors. 2 out of 6 drives in my NAS are displaying this. code:
