Thanks again rAf.

Great! Thanks a lot rAf!

There seems to be aproblem unraring(might be in the par2). All the downloads are exiting with an error and saving all the segments in a folder that starts with _FAILED_. I am able to get the post, just by running macpar (all the dl check fine, so it only needs to unrar them). Didn’t saw anything in the log file.
I am running leopard on a powerbook g4. So I am going back to the previous version. Thanks, and looking forward to a new version

Think it is the par2 . The history has the following:
Stage Par2
[PAR-INFO] file name: => Scanning “/path/downloads/file name.vol00+01.PAR2″
Stage Unrar
[UNPACK]: => No post-processing because of failed verification
Guess the new par2 is having trouble with one core ppc
May 5th, 2008 at 1:07 pm
according to the website, this par2 binary is only for intel 32/64, not ppc …

there is something wrong with this build, it tries to unzip everything in the Completed Download Folder (leave Sabnzbd.app in this directory, you’ll be surprised lol)
the build I compiled (post on Br41n’s blog) didn’t have this problem, can you check what could be the problem ?

Hi, it’s working perfectly on my Intel iMac running Leopard. No problem at all!
May 5th, 2008 at 5:13 pm
@Anonymous,
shame on me ! You can replace par2 binary by the old one (right click on SABnzbd.app select “Show package content”, go in ressources/osx/par2 subdir and replace it)
Sorry i’ve forgotten leopard ppc users
I’ll try to find a way to inlude a ppc binary in next version…
@sbultez,
I will check this and compare my sources with yours…
May 5th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
@sbultez,
I’ve compared your sources with mines and not seen any major diff. I’m not able to reproduce your bug…
May 5th, 2008 at 6:21 pm
@Leopard / PPC users,
I’ve uploaded a version with old par2 & unrar binaries…
http://osx.boiboite.net/downloads/sabnzbd-osx-040B4-oldpar2unrar.dmg
I’ll try to find another solution for next release…
@Leopard / Intel users,
do you notice performance diffs in reparing ?
May 5th, 2008 at 10:25 pm
thanks for the release!
i have a feature request: i would love to see the possibility to open the webpage when i double/single click the dock icon
thanks!!
May 5th, 2008 at 11:44 pm
@omega_red,
checkout sabnzbdgui, try, it’s even better
May 6th, 2008 at 4:22 am
Thanks for the builds rAf.
With SSL enabled on ports 443, 563 and 8080, I notice that my download speeds are lower than with SSL disabled and using port 119. My usenet provider is iUsenet.com and my ISP is Charter Communications.
W/out SSL I can max out my connection, but w/ SSL speeds fluctuate greatly and rarely exceed 2/3 my rated connection speed.
I also notice that I can’t seem to open more than 3 connections w/ SSL before connections start getting refused?
Anyway, thanks for the builds and I look forward to new releases!

Hey Raf,
Thanks for the uptodate builds, anyway to hide the icon from the dock?
May 6th, 2008 at 7:59 pm
You can hide the icon from the Dock with an app called: Dock Dodger. Google it
This build doesnt work on my mac pro and leopard btw. Not downloading anything :S
May 7th, 2008 at 12:23 pm
@Xexr
sabnzbdgui have also an option to hide sab dock icon…
@lowfi
can you give more details ?
May 7th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
@lowfi
maybe related with http://www.sabnzbd.org/2008/05/07/queue-incompatibility-between-beta2-and-beta4/ ?
May 7th, 2008 at 6:26 pm
Fantastic job rAf! Your release ROCKS! Thanks a lot!
May 7th, 2008 at 11:23 pm
Feature Request, SABnzbd only UNRAR if possible possible !!
Sure 2GB RAR could be 2,3,4 unpacked, but
It trys also to UNRAR a 2GB download if the drive only have 1 GB or 100MB free.
Every human knows that 2GB packed not fits in less than 2GB unpacked, why a have to wait a long time for the Error report, Stage Unrar
[RAR-INFO] zry-sr: => ERROR: write error, disk full?
This Report have to show befor UNRAR, something like, ERROR, unrar impossible, disk too full!
May 8th, 2008 at 8:46 am
I’m having the same problem as Nick. SSL really slows down compared to the non-encrypted download speeds.
May 9th, 2008 at 7:16 pm
@allwaysfull,
for feature request, you should try sab forums, i’dont implement new features… maybe one day…
@Cameron,
I alse have the same issue, i try to figure out why…
Anybody using sab on windows or linux have same issues with SSL ?
May 11th, 2008 at 5:26 pm
Don’t know if this has been requested: a daemon mode would be very handy.
For the moment I run hellanzb on a remote machine and control it via SSH, but since their development seems somewhat halted, I would like to switch to sabnzb. However, I would like to run it in a daemon mode.
So “just” the ability to start it via CLI would be nice.
May 12th, 2008 at 7:40 pm
Beta 5 was just released, any takers?
May 12th, 2008 at 8:09 pm
here is beta 5 – intel – leopard

@ Pixie
You can start any file/app from cli by just typing open SABnzbd.app for example. From thereon you can use the web interface. Or isnt that what you had in mind?
I just hella in the past as well.
May 13th, 2008 at 6:40 am
@lowfi
No, I know how to open a .app from CLI, but that will just bring hte app up. I would like to start it from CLI without anything visual happening in the Finder.
Just like hella: no graphical interface, just CLI…
May 13th, 2008 at 8:42 am
@ Pixie : use SABnzbdGUI, it’s just a menu item and can hide the dock.
http://www.pwsoftwareproductions.nl/site/node/5/
the other way to do it is to manually install sabnzbd (you’ll need Xcode, and to install the few prerequisites.
