Force recheck after a download completes
Posted: Thu Feb 06, 2020 1:45 am
I recently had multiple downloads that had corrupt chunks after completing. I only noticed the issue because a few were in rar archives and they failed their CRC checks. After that, I forced recheck on some other downloads that were not in rar archives, and a few were also corrupt and had to redownload a chunk.
When downloading 20+ gigabyte files, it's not unusual for a bit flip to occur and having the client recheck before considering the download completed successfully is invaluable. Is there any way to enable this in Qbit?
If not, I will try to put an API call in my post download script to force a recheck, but ideally just having the application verify downloads makes more sense.
Any help appreciated.
(Also, I typed this forum post 3 times at this point after the forum lost data last week, and my login session randomly kicked me when hitting submit. ARGH!!!)
