Add NZB via Opera on Windows XP

Post by jp10558 »

I am trying sabnzbd to see if it can replace Alt.binz, my current newsclient. I've installed sabnzbd v0.5, and set everything up I think. I've associated NZBs with sabnzbd. However, in Opera I was able (with Alt.Binz) to say download nzb files and open with program x, in this case it was Alt.Binz. This was great, click NZB download and bam, started Alt.Binz if it was off, or added to queue if it was running. If I do the same in Opera 10.10 with sabnzbd, it just pops up a new webpage and says sabnzbd is already running (which it is). The same is happening if I double click on an NZB file. How do I get it to add the nzb to the queue?

Did you choose the "associate .nzbs with SABnzbd" option in the installer? It should work.

Edit: Just tried this on my install, works fine. SABnzbd is associated with .nzbs, downloaded an .nzb with opera, it gave me an option to open with SABnzbd 0.5.0, and then it opened in SABnzbd.

Yea, I didn't do that in the installer. I've been trying to figure out how to do so afterwards.

Shut down SABnzbd and run the installer again. It wont' nuke any of your settings / queue / history / etc.
