Thanks a lot for this, I’d been missing it! Seems to work fine so far.

Thanks a lot!

By the way, drag and drop works fine for entering the API key…

What’s an API key? It says “read carefully on this” but I can’t see any info…
April 21st, 2009 at 10:41 am
The api key is provided in SABnzbd 0.4.9, check your general settings.
Thanks for the update, it works great.
I only have one bug, when I start SABnzbdX it automatically limits SABnzbd to 220KBps instead of giving it my full speed. SABnzbdX shows no speed limit in its settings and I have to manually remove it from the web interface.

@Mark : I’ve forgotten the link, fixed now.
@Fre : SABnzbdX do not set speed limit on startup, this is strange, I’ll check that. Does anybody else have this issue ?

Regarding the API key issue: I’m supposed to tell the 3rd party program (sabnzbdx, in this case) about my current key. Just where is it supposed to go? It’s not in the preferences. Nor could I find a .plist file in the package to put it. Enlightenment, please?
April 22nd, 2009 at 4:24 pm
An “API key” field has been added on SABnzbdX preferences panel.
Just enter the API key provided by SABnzbd on config/general in this field.

@rAf: A properly named input field right where one would expect it. I’m sorry. I’ll have my eyes checked on occasion.
Please consider that question unasked. Thank you anyways!

If you download the “sabnzb” you currently (may 2009) get as the first hit from google you will get version 1.0.6, which doesn’t have the “API Key” field. That was my problem, so this comment is for anyone who made the same mistake and then googled the error message.

I cannot get it working with a remote host. I have it on the same network and SABnzbd works fine. API key is configured. Is this working with remote host? Growl?

Hi,
work for me with the API key!
great job for Salamantis but i prefered the old icon (big yellow arrow)
Very pleasant application SABNZBDX!

Thank you very much for this great tool!! I’m running SABnzbd locally, but it needs to listen to the (fixed) IP my iMac got from the router. Under preferences (in SABnzbdX), I added this IP (and port) as new Host. Also, I entered the API key. For some reason I’m not able to start SABnzbd. Pausing, resuming and stopping SABnzbd is no problem. Of course this is not a big thing, but I would be grateful for any thought on what might be causing this?

Dirk : Yep, I’ve had to make choice, localhost or 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 are the only local values possible, if you specify something else, it will be considered as external, not perfect but conveniant for most users, try to add your IP as localhost in your host file, it should work…
Prof.Dr.Luigi : sorry I’ve forgotten, I’ll try to update soon

Is it possible to disable the upload / download counter from sabnzbdx in the status bar?
I’m using istat menus to show my total upload / download.
May 14th, 2009 at 4:01 pm
@Tarma : not possible in this release, sorry
May 14th, 2009 at 11:58 pm
@rAf: Hopefully in the next one?
May 23rd, 2009 at 2:45 pm
When Im using SABNZBD+, the sorting feature isnt working. Now everything is dumped into the download folders. Bug or am I missing something?
May 25th, 2009 at 2:50 am
When adding a new nzb with SABnzbdX, default category is affected, it’s maybe the cause of your troubles.
May 26th, 2009 at 1:03 am
Thanx for a great app
I sometimes limit the speed of SABnzb, and later forget to change it back to None.
Would be cool if SABnzbX (new) icon changed color to indicate a Speed Limit is applied.
Thanx again.

Can I configure it to work with the 0.5 Alpha 2?
May 27th, 2009 at 2:07 am
@dope.priest : good idea why not ! I’ll try to keep it in mind
@Gundan : yep it’s working with 0.5 alpha 2, just don’t specify apikey, it’s not working in alpha 2.
May 27th, 2009 at 4:35 pm
The latest release of SAVnzbdPlus 0.4.11 says that there were changes made to the API function that may break third-party add-ons. Can anyone verify that this version 1.2.2 will continue working after updating to 0.4.11? I’ve really come to reply on the GUI and would hate to lose it.
May 28th, 2009 at 3:17 am
Don’t worry 1.2.2 works with ALL versions of SABnzbd even future 0.5.x.
May 30th, 2009 at 2:45 pm
This version of Sabnzbdx works fantastic with 1.5 alpha 2. I just found about this product and I am quite thrilled with it.

Can’t get the advanced function “Force newzbin bookmark” to work. Otherwise this works fine. Running 0.4.11

Hey
Just got onto SABnzbd+ and SABnzbdX looks good, but for me I can’t get it to work. Can download with SABnzbd+ no problems but when I try to open SABnzbdX nothing happens. I know there is no window or dock icon, but I’m not even getting a menu bar icon. What am I doing wrong?
