Lost progress when computer crashed

Hi guys,

Just a bit of feedback for the developers, when my Mac crashed (a kernel panic caused it to for some reason) the progress of the downloads was not saved, meaning even though I had downloaded many shows over the past week, they re-downloaded again and were automatically started, meaning I used up more bandwidth than necessary. I was not signed up to Miso, however have done so to see whether it would make a difference in the future.

Hope this information helps.

    Hi Jeff,

    In such exceptional cases, it may happen that you lose your subscriptions file after a Kernel Panic. One good way to contrarest that would be to put your ~/Library/Application Support/TVShows/ folder (or only the Subscriptions file) under Dropbox, so that you can revert it to the last version.

    Also, as you say by using Miso and selecting the "Miso" option, you would have that info in the Miso website, so that you will not start downloading again.

    Cheers!
