So . . . I’m constantly broke (one of the reasons I use sonarr).
My newsgroup sub will end tomorrow, but I won’t have the money to renew it for about a week. But I have torrents enabled.
So, if I disable nzbget client in sonarr for that week, even tho I still have the several nzb sites enabled and my pref’s are set ‘nzb primary’ will it still manage to find stuff using torrents ‘reasonably quickly’? Or will it find the nzb’s first, and then just stop looking b/c it found them, even tho it has no download client to pass it to?
Hope I’m being clear . . .
Not sure what would happen in the scenario described (nzb’s found if you have no nzb downloader enabled), but why don’t you disable the nzb indexers instead?
Because there’s several of them and 1 nzbget. I’m lazy. 
I don’t mind the extra clicks, it was just one of those situations that probably wasn’t planned for, so I was curious. Might be a nice thing to note, and add in when time permits.
Would you like me to do it my way and see what happens so you know?
I can’t deny I’m not intrigued, but purely from an academic point of view. If it blows up I’m just an innocent fellow end-user that can’t help you anyway.
Maybe the devs are smarter than us, and some kind of error handling is already built in. Possibly with a warning that you need to have a download client configured before sonarr will do anything with all those fancy indexers that you configured…
It will try to use them, see that there isn’t a downloader and move on. Any delays/preferences would still apply though.
