Does SAZnzbd keep downloading if I close my browser?

Internet connection is mbps and server is wired directly to the switch. Anybody else using nzbtoSickbeard. After 3 years without a single issue the latest sabnzbd is giving me this error when processing tv-shows. Was there a change in the python version or path in the latest docker? I mean, the EOL for python2 was announced 12 years ago. It's not like it crept up all of a sudden.

Should SAB keep downloading even if I dont have it pulled up?? I logged into Unraid from my laptop, had Radarr and Sab open with files in queue to download and they were downloading but when Chrome in minimized on the laptop Sab pauses its download.

Is there a way around this? If I close the Sab gui shouldnt it keep downloading in the background or do I have to stay logged into the gui and keep it fully open in the browser? I've been using it for about 2 years now on a Windows 10 box and then connecting via an SMB share to transfer the files across. I try typing the full directory path into the Sab config and it says "Cannot create directory".

Not only this, but I can't find it if I click on the "Browse" button. You can post now and register later. If you have an account, sign in now to post with your account. Note: Your post will require moderator approval before it will be visible. Restore formatting. Only 75 emoji are allowed.

This message is just a warning; you could ignore it if you want to. To get rid of this message you have to find the program or browser plugin, and configure it with the correct API key.

If the popup says "[Errno ] Failed to connect: , 'timed out' [email protected] ", SABnzbd cannot connect to the newserver you filled out. You should check two things: the correct name for the news server and the correct port is the normal port.

If you're sure everything is filled out OK and you still get the error message, as a test you can fill out an additional news server. You can use news. After filling out and Save Change, you can click on Test Server. If you get "[Errno ] Failed to connect: , 'timed out' [email protected] " for this extra server too, the problem is local: possibly a firewall is blocking outgoing connections. So check your firewall. Then check again with Test Server. NB: after your own server is working, disable the extra setting, or you will see warnings in your log file of SABnzbd still trying to access this server for which you have no account.

If you hover over the job and click the icon you can list the files still waiting. You might see 1 or 2 files that are not done. Additionally, in Connections tab of the Status and Interface settings you can see that 1 article is still being fetched from one of your servers.

You are experiencing news server timeouts, somehow the connection between you and the server was lost while SABnzbd was getting the article. You have these options:. NOTE Connections work both ways: if it times out on your side, the server might still consider the connection alive until it reaches the timeout defined by the server's internal configuration.

If SABnzbd reconnects before this internal server timeout, the server might count this new connection towards your connection limit, this can result in getting "Connection limit reached" errors.

When troubleshooting, we might ask you to start SABnzbd with basic settings. This is what we would like you to do:. When you want to get back to your old setup, just shutdown SABnzbd, restore the original sabnzbd. No, SABnzbd will continue to run in the background. Restart the browser to connect to SABnzbd again. You can only stop SABznbd by using the shutdown function in the web-interface or by manually killing the process.

It starts by downloading all normal files and the smallest par. If the files don't pass our QuickCheck function, we run a full par2 verification. Once SABnzbd determines how many files are broken or missing it will go back and intelligently download only however many pars it needs and repair. But making these 2 settings changes did seem to solve the missing History at the very least. Markus - yes, the Remove setting was set to YES before making the change. And I did not muck with those settings previously, this would have been the first time I ever touched the Remove setting.

The second thing you want to do is check out the Web server authentication sub-menu.

SABnzbd includes several tools to help you schedule and limit your download speeds in order to keep your Usenet activity from overwhelming your home network. NFO and.

SFV files. Returning to the topic of speed limiting, the download limit in the Tuning sub-menu is quite limited. The way the SABnzbd scheduler works is that you plug in specific events. If you want the system to pause downloading every morning at 8AM you would plug in 8 for the hour, daily for the frequency, pause for the action, and leave the arguments blank.

The action menu has quite a few parameters to select from. You can speed limit, enable and disable specific Usenet servers, pause and resume, shut down SABnzbd, and more.

You can read more about the scheduling features here. Although this is outside the scope of SABnzbd specifically, if you really want to get nitty gritty with your network utilization and have your router do the heavy lifting of actively shaping your traffic and bandwidth, check out our guide to using DD-WRT and QOS rules to prioritize network traffic.

It can radically tidy things up to start using categories. SABnzbd supports categorization on two fronts. You can categorize items once they are in the queue and you can also set up categories within your watched NZB drop folder—using the latter automatically adds files dropped into it to a specific category.

So how does this work in practice? There you can create as many categories as you wish. You can read more about configuring user-defined categories here. This trick also works with file names. Categorization is quiet handy to keep your download folder tidy. Although we used TV shows as an example, television is one of the areas where skipping the basic categorization and going with 3rd party helper application SickBeard will save you piles of time.
