SABnzbd Forums

Edit: Solved

Just want to let everyone know to double check their ports getting forwarded and make sure they are to the correct internal IP address.

Hello. I'm using the Android app.

I understand port forwarding. I also understand internal & external IP's.

That being said, I can only get SABMobile (or SABControl for that matter) to work correctly inside my home LAN.

Getting it to connect over 3G using the external IP, however, is not possible. Let me just say that it IS possible using a similar torrent app called Transdroid.

If  anyone could explain to me why this is so, I would appreciate it. Perhaps there just isn't code included to allow an external IP to connect?

I just want nothing more than to be able to download files onto my home PC while away from home.

Hi,

It should work fine with SABMobile.

You said it works with Transdroid, but not with SABMobile ? That is strange... are you sure you entered the same settings ?

You can have a look at my website: http://dev.patey.net/sabmobile_tuto.html

Hi,

First i have to say this really is a great  program. But there is one thing I miss!!
Is it possible in a future release that I can use the categories?

Hi,

Yes, I'm implementing it right now You should be able to select a category when adding a new download (manually), change the category of an already started download, and several other things !

If anyone wishes to try out the new beta, send me a mail to [email protected] with your iPhone/iPad IUID, and I'll be able to send your something in the coming days !

Having a problem here with security trying to access my sab server from outside my network using sabmobile, If i leave the ports in my router closed, and use the ssh tunnel feature in sabmobile, the nzb upload feature doesnt work from a Search. If you open the port in your router and enable the username / password authentication on your sab server, sabmobile cannot connect. So it seems the only way to use SabMobile from outside your network is to leave you Sabnzbd server wide open to the Internet?

Hi,

It won't be "open to everyone", because you need to enter the API Key. If you don't have the correct API Key, you won't be able to do anything.

Ok, hope this helps somebody, if you have username and password authentication enabled for your Sabnzbd server, but have the API key disabled, SabMobile will not be able to connect, but if you enable the API key and Username and password, and enter the API Key into SabMobile config, it will connect, thanks to fkmtc for the help.


BTW, this is a great app, very useful.

@fkmtc

Thanks mate for this great program. Im a proud purchased owner... I have tried all nzb apps and this is the best 

I wanted to make a suggestion, there is two things i miss. First of an option to organise the rss feed in catagories. Im Thinking of some kind of folder style like this "+Movies HD" when pressing it expands like "-Movies HD" showing all in that feed. This would make the feeds alot easier to read out. Second suggestion is regarding the search function. I have added nzbmatrix search function from your earlier post, thanks. Having an drop down list or something that would make the user able to search in catagories like Movies HD, TV HD, Misc etc would be awsome... Now im just using the search in ALL catagorie.

Thanks again to the NR 1 App on the Android Store.

Thanks a lot !

About the searchers, I will improve that in next version (v1.. I have planned several things, and if you're interested, we can discuss it by email ([email protected])

I will release a v1.7 this week for iPhone, and then on Android in a few weeks.

What if i want to buy this app but dont have a creditcard, is there a place that uses paypal?
willing to pay double for paypal usage.

Hi,

I can build an APK just for your device, and for that, I would need your IMEI. Once I've received your payment through Paypal, I'll be able to send you the download link.

The drawback is that you won't have any updates. If you want updates, use the Android Market solution

If you're OK with that, send me a mail to [email protected] so we can discuss it further.

Jérôme

Hi all,

I'm looking for some iPhone/iPad beta testers ASAP !

Hi,

Well, no need for beta testers anymore, I have submitted SABMobile v1.7 to Apple !
