Some users have issues connecting to SABnzbd with 1.2.5.
I’ve added a hidden option to change http timeout value.
If you have troubles like suddenly it said via growl “not started”, then switched back to “downloading”, try to change timeout value with with command in Terminal :
defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/org.sabnzbdx.team timeout -int 5
you can change value between 1 and 10 (default value in SABnzbdX 1.2.4 was 5, in 1.2.5 was 1 and in 1.2.6 it’s 2).
SABnzbdX is available for free to download, but if you’d like to see it continue to be developed then please donate.

Don’t forget to set your API key in Preferences
If you still have troubles, please come to SABnzbd forums

I take it SABnzbdX is redundant if we’re using SABnzbd+ 0.5.x?

I think it’s complementary.
If you install SABnzbd on one computer, you can use SABnzbdX on a other to monitor it…
If you use SAbnzbd on one computer only, no need to install SABnzbdX anymore.

Anyone get SABnzbdX to add items to the queue on a remote machine running SABnzbd+ 0.5.0Beta1 ?
On my machines growl says an .nzb is added to the queue but it is never actually added to the queue on the remote machine.

@wasp : It works for me, come to forums (see first comment) to discuss.

My Bad.
Appears that in SABnzbd+ 0.5Beta1 there is a problem adding .nzb’s if a proxy server is configured in network settings.
I had a proxy server configured on the machine running SABnzbd+ 0.5Beta1.
Once I disabled the proxy server both SABnzbd+ 0.5Beta1 on the host machine and SABnzbdX 1.2.6 running on the remote machine worked fine.
I can add .nzb’s from either machine fine now.

What if you… want the proxy server?

I’ve just noticed that I’m getting double menubar icons now. I have two icons for SABNZBDX where I had one before. Closing and restarting didn’t help nor did uninstalling and reinstalling. Anyone know what’s going on or how I might fix this?

I see now that the issue is the 0.5.0 release of SABNZBD+ has changed from a dock icon to an embedded menubar icon. I see no option to disable this menubar icon in the settings and the “Disable Dock Icon” setting in SABNZBDX has no effect. I prefer SABNBDX because it seems to have more features. Is there any way to disable SABNZBD+’s menubar icon?

Hi,
To not display icon in statusbar : Create a empty file named ~/Library/Application Support/SABnzbd/notDisplayMenu
To not display speed when downloading next to icon Create a empty file named ~/Library/Application Support/SABnzbd/notDisplaySpeed
