Template:Settings download clients failed download handling

From Servarr

Failed Download Handling is compatible with SABnzbd and NZBGet.

There are a couple components that make up the failed download handling process:

  1. Check Downloader:
    • Queue - Check your downloader's queue for password-protected (encrypted) releases
    • History - Check your downloader's history for failure (eg. not enough to repair, or extraction failed)
    • When {{{ARRNAME}}} finds a failed download it starts processing them and does a few things:
    1. Adds a failed event to {{{ARRNAME}}}'s history
    2. Removes the failed download from Download Client to free space and clear downloaded files (optional)
    3. Starts searching for a replacement file (optional)
  2. Blacklisting Allows automatic skipping of nzbs when they fail, this means that nzb will not be automatically downloaded by {{{ARRNAME}}} ever again (You can still force the download via a manual search).

There are 2 advanced options (on 'Download Client' settings page) that control the behavior of failed downloading in {{{ARRNAME}}}, at this time, they are all on by default.

  • Redownload - Controls whether or not {{{ARRNAME}}} will search for the same file after a failure
  • Remove - Whether or not the download should automatically be removed from Download Client when the failure is detected
