Search (local) only the rolled up post name

[Murg]

How do you do a local search that returns only the part01.rar post of a post set?

This may seem like a Regex question, but it isn't.

For example:

abc [2/12] "abc.part01.rar" yEnc
abc [3/12] "abc.part02.rar "yEnc
abc [4/12] "abc.part03.rar" yEnc

Newsbin very helpfully rolls these up into a single line: abc [2/12] "abc.part01.rar" yEnc

I only want to display the single part01.rar post, so there is no rollup.

If I search on \.part01\.rar I still get the rolled up post with all it's parts.

Interestingly, *.part02*.rar and *.part02\.rar return the rolled up posts, but \.part02\.rar returns nothing.

Can't. What's displayed isn't the actual group contents but the summary of the group contents. The combining of rars together with the other rars is done during header download.


Now if you ONLY ever want to see the first RAR like that. You could create a header filter that throws away all headers except the part01.rars.

ok.

Can you apply a header filter to a nzb file?

My guess is not.

You can apply an NZB loading filter but it applies to all NZB's. I'd have to experiment with whether if can filter out the set members. I think it can.

What's your goal. It doesn't sound like you're shooting for being able to actually download these. Are you trying to probe or sample them?
