Very cool program, keep up the good work There is one thing that bugs me though, if I set a speed limit, I get an error saying "Cannot set speed limit!" ,it still sets the correct limit.

[dynup]

Thanks! ...I'll check this with speed limit, thanks for your feedback!

I just installed NZB-DD version 1.1 on a Windows 7 system. FWIW: I installed as a normal user into a user directory; I'm glas that that is possible and no admin rights are needed. My compliments!

When I start it up, it asks if I want to use a remote server, which is not the case; SAB is running locally (as a service). NZB-DD then shows the download history, so that's good.
However, when I click Add NZB, I get a popup saying "Local NZB files can be added to a locally running SABnzbd server only!", and I cannot add a NZB. :-(

FWIW: Settings -> tab SABnzbd is almost empty.

So, two remarks:
The error message is not correct as the SABnzbd server is running locally.
Why would it not be possible to add an NZB to a remotely running SABnzbd? SAB offers an API for that.

EDIT:

Found the cause: my "SABnzbd Host" setting is "::". That apparantly confuses SAB-DD; after changing it to "localhost"", I can add a NZB.

I would say SAB-DD should understand "::" as local.

In NZBd 1.1, how can I switch to a remote server? I tried to change settings in Settings -> tab SABnzbd, but that doesn't help much.

EDIT: hmmm, after a restart, the fields were empty. After filling out the username/password to the remote server, NZBdd is in.

A bit confusing process, but it works.

Hi, a few remarks on NZBdd 1.1 on Linux:

Is there a NZBdd-1.1-Linux.tar.bz2 like there is a NZBdd-1.0-Linux.tar.bz2?
The PPA is still on version 1.0

Just installed it, and first impression is really good

I've a couple of remarks though, if you don't mind (using NZBdd incombination with SABnzbd 0.6.15)
When first starting the program it did not have any settings imported/read from SABnzbd, all fields were either empty or had some default value in them, this was confusing and might introduce problems when saving these settings.

The cleanup setting doesn't have comma's separating them, so for example the clean list is "sfv, nzb, ssr" then the settings in NZBdd shows that as "sfvnzbssr".

I had a pretty large finished download list (over 2000) and the program imported that nicely but while having the queue page active it was freezing every couple of seconds, which made it really hard to navigate. After I cleared my finished downloads its working fine again.

I cannot seem to pause/unpause individual downloads (only the whole queue), or adjust the order of the queue, am I missing something?

I would like to drag-select downloads in the any of the lists for easy multiple download management.

A way to put the NZBdd to tray would be awesome

Thanks for the simple and clean GUI, like it!

edit:
After using it a couple of days, I've experienced a bit too much crashes over time which makes this unusable as a full replacement for the Plush web UI in its current state.

I could not add remote nzbs to a locally running sabnzbd server! But I will check this agian!

FWIW: Settings -> tab SABnzbd is almost empty.

Is the sabnzbd server running? Are the buttons in tool bar enabled and see you your download queue/history?

Found the cause: my "SABnzbd Host" setting is "::". That apparantly confuses SAB-DD; after changing it to "localhost"", I can add a NZB.

I would say SAB-DD should understand "::" as local.

Sorry, I cannot reproduce this problem!

In NZBd 1.1, how can I switch to a remote server? I tried to change settings in Settings -> tab SABnzbd, but that doesn't help much.

EDIT: hmmm, after a restart, the fields were empty. After filling out the username/password to the remote server, NZBdd is in.

A bit confusing process, but it works.

I will integrate a method to switch to remote server (or toggle local/remote) in next version!

Is there a NZBdd-1.1-Linux.tar.bz2 like there is a NZBdd-1.0-Linux.tar.bz2?
The PPA is still on version 1.0

Sorry? The PPA will not updated in the future, will deleted soon! Installer only since v1.1!

The cleanup setting doesn't have comma's separating them, so for example the clean list is "sfv, nzb, ssr" then the settings in NZBdd shows that as "sfvnzbssr".

Sorry? I don't understand what you mean!

I had a pretty large finished download list (over 2000) and the program imported that nicely but while having the queue page active it was freezing every couple of seconds, which made it really hard to navigate. After I cleared my finished downloads its working fine again.

I've not tested it with so many downloads! I've max. 20 downloads, all ok!

I cannot seem to pause/unpause individual downloads (only the whole queue), or adjust the order of the queue, am I missing something?

Context popup menu with functions for individual download is planned for next version!

I would like to drag-select downloads in the any of the lists for easy multiple download management.

What you mean?

A way to put the NZBdd to tray would be awesome

I'll check it!

After using it a couple of days, I've experienced a bit too much crashes over time which makes this unusable as a full replacement for the Plush web UI in its current state.

Do you have any error messages or outputs about the crash? Try to start NZBdd in a terminal, to see the outputs!

[dynup]

i have d/loaded this but does not appear to run on OSX LION 10.7.4 after install

Sorry, I cannot test it with Lion! ...my Mac is an old G5 (ppc), 10.5 max!

[sander]

Could you provide a NZBdd-1.1-Linux.tar.bz2 like there is a NZBdd-1.0-Linux.tar.bz2? I prefer a file that I just can unpack into a test directory, instead of running an installer or installing a .deb file somewhere onto my system.

[dynup]

You can compress the directory of installed NZBdd!?

[sander]

You can compress the directory of installed NZBdd!?

Is this a follow-up to my question? If so, I don't understand it ...

[dynup]

Yes, when you have installed NZBdd 1.1, than you could compress the directory to a .tar.bz2!
