NZBGet unpack not working
Hi I currently have NZBGet set up so that all new downloads are downloaded into an "Incomplete" folder. I've then set NGBGet so that complete downloads are moved to a "Complete" folder, with sub...

I still think your issue is your settings for NZBGet! Unpack works great for me. NZBGet handled 6 files today for me alone. All processed just fine all on it's own and ready to see on PLEX without having to do anything.

Did you install NZBGet through the app centre in ReadyCloud? If so, would you be able to take some screenshoot of the critical settings within NZBGet. I'm willing to copy them just to see if i can get it working.

I've used that version in the past, but itcan't get updates in the app. So this last time I installed though SSH. I had a little more flexabity of where to put it. WinSCP is a big help inthe making things much simpler. So now I can actually update NZBGet in the program as it should be. In fact I just looked and there's a new version, all I have to do is click the install button and let it do it's thing on it's own now. Now using version 19.1-testing-r2031. That update took maybe 30 seconds to do with a single click of a button. It doesn't work that way with one of these deb file installs.
I don't see a picture setting here, though I've done that in the past. My settings will be differnt from you as your location paths may be differnt, but you will get a Idea. All my Media is in a Media Folder, in that Media folder I keep all the NZBGet stuff it's getting from the Internet, everything is is located in it's home location. Just so you can get a understanding. Also I will have some settings you don't have, so ignore them.
MainDir /apps/nzbget/
DestDir /data/Media/NZBGet/Complete
InterDir /data/Media/NZBGet/Intermediate
NzbDir /data/Media/NZBGet/NZB
QueueDir /data/Media/NZBGet/Queue
TempDir /data/Media/NZBGet/Tmp
WebDir /apps/nzbget/webui
ScriptDir /apps/nzbget/scripts
Lockfile /apps/nzbget/nzbget.lock
LogFile /data/Media/NZBGet/nzbget.log
ConfigTemplet /apps/nzbget/webui/nzbget.conf.template
RequiredDir I've left blank!
CertStore ${AppDir}/cacert.pem
This last one I left alone and you may have some others that look simular. That's just the default shortcut pointing to the very first MainDir, I could have changed it also and just done a /apps/nzbget/cacert.pem. It's the same thing.
The other area to check is Check and Repair!
ParCheck Auto
ParRepair Yes
ParScan Extended
ParQuick Yes
ParBuffer (Mine is at 500 megabytes - My 516 NAS I upgraded to faster CPU and 16 Gig's of RAM from the default 4, so I have lots of extra!!!)
ParThreads 2 (Again Default is Auto, I limit it to only 2 cores on my CPU to help limit NZBGet from being a CPU Hog, so PLEX will run good)
ParIgnoreExt I didn't touch at all. Still shows .sfv, .nzb, .nfo
ParRename Yes
DirectRename No
HealthCheck Park
ParTimeLimit 0
ParPauseQueue Yes (Good thing to have turn ON when running on a NAS like I am)
Last area you should check is Unpack
Unpack Yes
DirectUnpack No
UnpackPaused Queue Yes (Another good thing to have turn on when running on a NAS with limited CPU resources, I'm not in that big of a rush!!!)
UnpackCleanupDisc Yes
UnrarCmd ${AppDir}/unrar (This is IMPORTANT!!! Again the default shortcut which is just the MainDir for NZBGet, in my case /apps/nzbget/ Because Unrar is located here!!! It comes with NZBGet and is in it's main directory whever that is on your own NAS)
SevenZipCmp ${AppDir}/7za (This also comes with NZBGet and is also in it's main directory so is treated the same way)
ExtCleanupDisc .par2, .sfv, _brokenlog.txt (This should be default)
UnpackIgnoreExt .cbr (Again default)
UnpackPassFile (Blank!)
Hope this helps you get it working as it should. Any other questions, settings let me know.
