The last rar is needed completly, just a dummy is not enough. for the rars between (r02,r03) you have to create dummys.
i'm looking to create an api for newznab(serverside) for listing series by name.(A..Z)
but then i need to change your plugin to show that.
is there any svn checkout for your code?..so i can merge your updates with my tweaks?
Great! I'm sorry for my short answers but I have been on my phone and it really sucks writing on a touch screen...
Yes, xbmc need the file beginning and end for mkv/mp4. In some cases there is also a sample inside the rars, then I download the first, second and last since the second usually contains the end of the sample and the beginning of "the real deal". In the case of multi archives (cd1/cd2) I grab the first of each cd and check what files are inside and then create a playlist with the relevant files.
Anyhow, for newznab you can just fork my git repo. Current version of my newznab addon is in the eden branch. Once you are done, just do a pull request and I'll include your code (if it looks good ;D ). Will you merge your api to the current newznab branch or will it be just a personal fork? If so, will you share it? Also, a setting in the newznab addon for enabling the feature could be a good idea...
