Re: Continuous updating of Queue status so crashes don't screw up download history.

1) I see you are using the bandwidth limiter. Does the same issue happens when the bandwidth limiter is off? I have always had the limiter check as on. I will try with it off to see if it recurs. 2) Did this issue started since a few releases back or has it always been there? Now that you mention i...

Re: Continuous updating of Queue status so crashes don't screw up download history.

Thanks for the clarification.

It happens often enough that I get impatient after 5-10 seconds.

It happened again (hung for over a hour), so I took a screen shot of Queue and copied the force quit report and have enclosed for your review.

Hope it helps.

Re: Continuous updating of Queue status so crashes don't screw up download history.

I may be using the term "crash" incorrectly.

The Usenetic app becomes unresponsive and I get the spinning ball, so technically not a crash of the app but it hangs and it requires a force quit and then restart.

I'll forward the logs the next time it happens.

Hope this helps.

Re: Continuous updating of Queue status so crashes don't screw up download history.

Clean up has always been set to Auto CleanUp. The Queue is auto cleaning the list as it completes downloads and completes extraction into the designated extraction folder. When the spinning ball occurs, a force quit is required and no db saved state is updated.. When restarting the app, it reloads t...

Re: Continuous updating of Queue status so crashes don't screw up download history.

A better choice would be to update the database for each finished or newly added queue object. I'll put this on the todo list. I agree and that was what I was intending to suggest. Just didn't know how to word it. BTW. At which point do the crashes occur? Or is the resident app you mentioned before...

Continuous updating of Queue status so crashes don't screw up download history.

When crashes (spinning ball and Unresponsive App) occur, the Queue history is not accurately saved. When app is restarted, the Queue is rebuilt to last saved state even if lots of files have been downloaded already, necessitating manual review and deletion of duplicate Queue entries to reflect updat...

Download option to only download first 5 rar files of obfuscated files

Any way of adding a download option to the right click menu for Download 1st Five rars so that VLC (which can decode rars on the fly) can be used to preview the file content before deciding whether to download the full file set? Especially useful for large movie files to determine what they are. Tha...
